Abstract
A rotor has at its two axis end portions an upper large-diameter inner circumferential portion and a lower large-diameter inner circumferential portion that have inner diameters larger than the inner diameter of the axially middle portion of the rotor and are offset in the radial direction. A crankshaft has a passageway, which is formed in the crankshaft and allows refrigerant to flow therethrough, and a gas venting hole, which provides communication between the passageway and at least one discharge opening formed in the outer circumferential surface of the crankshaft. The at least one discharge opening is formed at a position facing the inner circumferential surface of the lower large-diameter inner circumferential portionon the compression unit side.
