SCROLL COMPRESSOR

Abrégé

This scroll compressor is provided with a closed container, a frame, a stationary scroll, an orbiting scroll, and a crankshaft. The invention is also provided with: a rotating shaft provided so as to protrude out to an anti-lap side of the orbiting scroll; an eccentric hole which is provided to an end section of the crankshaft and into which the rotating shaft is inserted; a slewing bearing provided between the rotating shaft and the eccentric hole; a main bearing that is provided between the crankshaft and the frame and substantially at the same position in the axial direction as the slewing bearing; a shaft thrust plate provided to the end part of the crankshaft; a thrust bearing that is provided to the frame and slides with the shaft thrust plate to support a thrust force acting on the crankshaft; and an oil groove provided to a surface that slides with the thrust bearing in the shaft thrust plate. The oil groove is formed in the radial direction at a location within 180° forward in the rotating direction of the crankshaft from a 0° location, where 0° is the direction of the eccentric hole in the crankshaft.
