ELECTRIC-MOTOR COMPRESSOR, AND AIR CONDITIONER IN WHICH SAME IS USED

Abrégé

This electric-motor compressor comprises a compression mechanism unit that compresses a refrigerant, an electric motor mechanism unit that drives the compressor mechanism unit, an airtight container that incorporates the compression mechanism unit and the electric motor mechanism unit, and an accumulator that accumulates liquid refrigerant and is provided on the suction side of the compression mechanism unit. The accumulator is provided with an inlet pipe for guiding refrigerant into the accumulator, and an outlet pipe for sending the refrigerant in the accumulator to the compression mechanism unit. A refrigerant repellent that prevents the liquid refrigerant flowing into the accumulator through the inlet pipe from flowing into the outlet pipe is provided to the lower-end part inside the accumulator at the inlet pipe.
