Abstract
A scroll compressor is provided that may include a block insertion groove to accommodate a discharge port and at least one bypass hole disposed in a rear surface of a non-orbiting end plate of a non-orbiting scroll, and a retainer block including at least one bypass valve to open or close the bypass hole inserted into the block insertion groove. The bypass hole may include a first bypass hole and a second bypass hole. The bypass valve may include a first bypass valve to open or close the first bypass hole and a second bypass valve to open or close the second bypass hole, and may be disposed between the block insertion groove and the retainer block facing the block insertion groove. Accordingly, the first and second bypass valves are not fastened to the non-orbiting end plate, which may allow the non-orbiting end plate to be made thin.
