The piston 61 rotates eccentrically inside the cylinder 41. The piston 61 has a blade 61b that divides the compression chamber 41CS of the cylinder 41 into a high-pressure chamber 41HS and a low-pressure chamber 41LS. The blade 61b is fixed to the cylinder 41 by a bush 41b.

[Piston 62]

The piston 62 rotates eccentrically inside the cylinder 42. The piston 62 has a blade 62b that divides a compression chamber 42CS of the cylinder 42 into a high-pressure chamber 42HS and a low-pressure chamber 42LS. The blade 62b is fixed to the cylinder 42 by a bush 42b.

[Main flow path MFP]

As illustrated in FIG. 3, the rotary compressor 1 includes a main flow path MFP which penetrates from the intake pipe 12 to the cylinder 42 through the head 31, the cylinder 41, and the middle plate 50, by a through hole 31h, a through hole 41h, a through hole 50h, and a vertical hole 42h.
The flow path area SM in the main flow path MFP may be greater than or equal to the flow path area SSC at the intake port to which the intake pipe 12 is connected. In the present disclosure, the flow path area is the area of the cross section of the flow path cut at a plane perpendicular to the direction in which the refrigerant flows. For example, the flow path area SM is the area of a cross section cut at a plane parallel to the XY plane in the through hole 41h, the through hole 50h, and the vertical hole 42h. The flow path area SM is the area of a cross section cut at a plane parallel to the YZ plane in a portion extending in the X axis direction of the through hole 41h or the area of a cross section cut at a plane parallel to the XY plane in a portion extending in the Y axis direction of the through hole 41h.

[Branch flow path SFP1, branch flow path SFP2]

As illustrated in FIG. 3, the rotary compressor 1 includes a branch flow path SFP1 that branches from the main flow path MFP to the inside of the cylinder 41 by the groove part 41g. The rotary compressor 1 also includes a branch flow path SFP2 that branches from the main flow path MFP to the inside of the cylinder 42 by the groove part 42g.
The flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 may be different from the flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1. For example, the flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 may be determined so as to optimize the flow rate of refrigerant in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow rate of refrigerant in the branch flow path SFP2. For example, the flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 may be determined so that the flow rate of refrigerant in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow rate of refrigerant in the branch flow path SFP2 are equal.
The sum of the flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 may be greater than or equal to the flow path area SM in the main flow path MFP. By making the sum of the flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1 and the flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 to be greater than or equal to the flow path area SM in the main flow path MFP, pressure loss in the branch flow path SFP1 and the branch flow path SFP2 can be reduced.
The flow path area SS1 in the branch flow path SFP1 is the area of the cross section of the groove part 41g cut at a plane perpendicular to the direction in which the groove part 41g extends. The flow path area SS2 in the branch flow path SFP2 is the area of the cross section of the groove part 42g cut at a plane perpendicular to the direction in which the groove part 42g extends.
The cylinder 41 is supplied with the refrigerant that has passed through the branch flow path SFP1 branched from the main flow path MFP. For example, if the intake pipe 12 is directly connected to the cylinder 41, the cylinder 41 cannot be made thinner than the outer diameter of the intake pipe 12. Because the refrigerant from the intake pipe 12 is supplied to the cylinder 41 through the main flow path MFP and the branch flow path SFP1, the cylinder 41 can be made thinner. Similarly, because the refrigerant from the intake pipe 12 is supplied through the main flow path MFP and the branch flow path SFP2 to the cylinder 42, the cylinder 42 can be made thinner.
If the intake pipe 12 is directly connected to the middle plate 50, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example, the middle plate 50 cannot be made thinner than the outer diameter of the intake pipe 12. Because the intake pipe 12 is not connected to the middle plate 50, the middle plate 50 can be made thinner.
The cylinder 41 is an example of a first cylinder, the cylinder 42 is an example of a second cylinder, the branch flow path SFP1 is an example of a first branch flow path, and the branch flow path SFP2 is an example of a second branch flow path.

According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the main shaft can be shortened by flattening the compression mechanism. According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the influence of shaft deflection of the main shaft can be reduced by shortening the main shaft.
Moreover, according to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, because the intake pipe is connected to the head, a suction hole in the cylinder can be designed regardless of the shape of the cylinder. According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, because the suction hole in the cylinder can be designed regardless of the shape of the cylinder, the degree of freedom of design can be increased.

According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the number of parts around the suction part can be reduced, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, pressure loss of refrigerant in the 2-cylinder rotary compressor can be reduced by making the flow path area of the main flow path greater than or equal to the flow path area of the suction port to which the intake pipe is connected.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the amount of refrigerant distributed to the first cylinder and the second cylinder can be optimized because the flow path area of the second branch flow path is different from the flow path area of the first branch flow path.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, pressure loss of refrigerant in the 2-cylinder rotary compressor can be reduced by making the sum of the flow path area of the first branch flow path and the flow path area of the second branch flow path greater than or equal to the flow path area of the main flow path.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the center of the first connection port in the first branch flow path is provided on the first blade side with respect to the line connecting the main flow path and the rotational center of the first piston, so that the first connection port can be closed quickly. That is, according to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the angle at which the first connection port is closed can be reduced. Similarly, according to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, because the center of the second connection port in the second branch flow path is provided on the second blade side with respect to the line connecting the main flow path and the rotational center of the second piston, the second connection port can be closed earlier. That is, according to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the angle at which the second connection port is closed can be reduced.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the lower part of the accumulator is provided below the holding member, thereby lowering the center of gravity. According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, vibration can be reduced by lowering the center of gravity of the 2-cylinder rotary compressor.
According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the design freedom of the shape in the suction part of the cylinder can be increased by forming the main flow path with a through-hole and a vertical hole and forming the branch flow path with a groove part. Moreover, according to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the machining in the suction part of the cylinder can be simplified by forming the branch flow path with a groove. According to the 2-cylinder rotary compressor according to the present embodiment, the machining in the suction part of the cylinder can be simplified, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.
Although the embodiment has been described above, it will be understood that various changes in form and details can be made without departing from the purpose and scope of the claims.
