Abstract
A compressor is provided having an accumulator that may form an accumulating chamber at an internal space of a shell, thereby reducing a size of the compressor, and simplifying an assembly process. A stationary shaft having a refrigerant suction passage may be directly connected to the accumulator to prevent leakage of refrigerant. Further, a center of gravity of the accumulator may correspond to a center of gravity of the compressor to reduce vibration noise of the compressor caused by the accumulator. Furthermore, an oil collecting plate may be installed at an upper end of an upper bearing to supply oil between a vein and vein slot, thereby preventing compression loss. Also, an installation area of the compressor including the accumulator may be minimized to enhance design flexibility of an outdoor device employing the compressor and minimize interference with other components, thereby facilitating installation of the outdoor device.
