A clearance between one of the gates disposed in the spiral groove and a wall surface of a discharge side portion of the spiral groove is larger than a clearance between the gate disposed in the spiral groove and a wall surface of a suction side portion of the spiral groove. The wall surface of the discharge side portion of the spiral groove is a portion extending from a predetermined position of the spiral groove at a certain point in a compression phase to the terminal end of the spiral groove. The wall surface of the suction side portion of the spiral groove being a portion other than the discharge side portion.
