  • this modification is different from Modification 5 in that the shaft part 33 a of the first support member 33 is fitted to the outer ring of the first support member bearing 37 , and the housing 3 is fitted to the inner ring of the first support member bearing 37 .
  • this modification is different from Modification 5 in that the shaft part 35 a of the second support member 35 is fitted to the outer ring of the second support member bearing 38 , and the inner ring of the second support member bearing 38 is fitted to the housing 3 .
  • a preload is applied to each of the bearing 37 and 38 when the motor housing part 3 a and the scroll housing part 3 b of the housing 3 are contacted to be fixed by the bolts 32 in the axial direction.
  • FIG. 23 a combination of fitting of each of the bearings 37 and 38 is shown.
  • Modification 7-3 the inner ring of the second support member bearing 38 is set to tight with respect to Modification 7-1. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the misalignment amount around the driven side rotation axis CL 2 .
  • Modification 7-4 the inner ring of the first support member bearing 37 is set to tight with respect to Modification 7-1. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the misalignment amount around the driven side rotation axis CL 2 .
  • the first driving side bearing 11 may be omitted, and the second driving side bearing 14 and the rear end bearing 17 may support the rotation around the driving side rotation axis CL 1 .
  • the number of parts can be reduced.
  • applying a preload by the rear end bearing 17 instead of the first driving side bearing 11 can obtain the same effect as in the first embodiment.
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor is used as a supercharger, but the present invention is not limited to this, and it can be widely used as long as it compresses a fluid, and it can also be used as a refrigerant compressor used in, for example, an air conditioner.
