Abstract

A sealed compressor incorporates a relatively thin counterweight. The relatively thin counterweight is able to fit within a much smaller space than prior art cast counterweights. The relatively thin counterweight allows the reduction of the overall length of the sealed compressor, and thus provides very valuable benefits.
