Abstract
A scroll compressor is provided, in which a fixed side discharge opening is formed eccentric from a geometrical center of an orbiting scroll toward an orbiting side discharge opening, so as to overlap the orbiting side discharge opening across a relatively wide area. This may reduce flow resistance between the orbiting side discharge opening and the fixed side discharge opening. Accordingly, a refrigerant compressed in a final compression chamber may be rapidly discharged without being blocked by an upper frame, while maintaining a proper discharge pressure. Since uniform pressure may be maintained in compression chambers positioned at both sides of the scroll compressor, input losses due to over-compression may be reduced.
