Abstract

This scroll compressor (2) includes a first and second fixed scrolls (4, 5) comprising first and second fixed spiral wraps (9, 12), an orbiting scroll arrangement (7) comprising first and second orbiting spiral wraps (14, 15), the first fixed spiral wrap (9) and the first orbiting spiral wrap (14) forming a plurality of first compression chambers (16) and the second fixed spiral wrap (5) and the second orbiting spiral wrap (15) forming a plurality of second compression chambers (17). The scroll compressor further includes a drive shaft (23) adapted for driving the orbiting scroll arrangement (7) in an orbital movement, and a driving motor (24) arranged for driving in rotation the drive shaft (23) about a rotation axis, the driving motor (24) being located nearby the first fixed scroll (4). The first fixed scroll (4) includes at least one first discharge passage (21) arranged to conduct the refrigerant compressed in the first compression chambers (16) towards the driving motor (24).
