Abstract
A scroll compressor is disclosed, which comprises an auxiliary discharge path capable of sufficiently making sure of a discharge area at an initial discharge stage. The compressor comprises a fixed scroll including a fixed end plate portion and a fixed wrap, and an orbiting scroll including an orbiting end plate portion and an orbiting wrap, wherein a discharge hole is formed in the fixed end plate portion, and an auxiliary discharge path for connecting a side of the orbiting wrap with a bottom surface of the orbiting wrap is provided to be communicated with the discharge hole, whereby a compressed refrigerant may be discharged through the auxiliary discharge path.
