According to the compressor 10 of the present embodiment, by fixing the first lid portion 44 to the housing main body 41 in a detachable state with the first bolts 46 from one side in the axis direction and by fixing the first compression mechanism 18 to the housing main body 41 with the third bolt 19 from one side in the axis direction, it is possible to remove the first lid portion 44 from the housing main body 41 and then remove the first compression mechanism 18 from the housing main body 41.
Accordingly, the maintenance of the first compression mechanism 18 and the components of the compressor 10 disposed on the first compression mechanism 18 side and housed in the housing 11 can be easily performed.
Additionally, by fixing the second lid portion 45 to the housing main body 41 in a detachable state with the second bolts 47 from the other side in the axis direction and by fixing the second compression mechanism 21 to the housing main body 41 with the fourth bolt 22 from the other side in the axis direction, it is possible to remove the second lid portion 45 from the housing main body 41 and then remove the second compression mechanism 21 from the housing main body 41.
Accordingly, the maintenance of the second compression mechanism 21 and the components of the compressor 10 disposed on the second compression mechanism 21 side and housed in the housing 11 can be easily performed.
That is, the maintenance of the components of the compressor 10 housed in the housing 11 including the first and second compression mechanisms 18 and 21 can be easily performed.
Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to such specific embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made within the spirit of the present invention described within the claims.
In addition, in the present embodiment, as an example of the compressor 10, a vertical compressor in which the housing 11 and the rotary shaft 13 extend in the vertical direction has been described as an example. However, for example, the present invention is also applicable to a horizontal compressor in which the housing 11 and the rotary shaft 13 extends in a horizontal direction orthogonal to the vertical direction.
Additionally, in the present embodiment, a case where the two-cylinder rotary compression portion 78 is used as an example of the rotary compression portion has been described as an example. However, instead of this, a single-cylinder rotary compression portion may be used.
