Abstract

In a compressor connected to a discharge pipe for transferring discharged refrigerant to outside, an oil separator has a near column shaped separation chamber which is formed in a housing and whose one end is opened to a surface of the housing, and a separator pipe having a large diameter portion and a small diameter portion both of which are inserted into the separation chamber. The large diameter portion is press fitted to an inner wall of the separation chamber in a vicinity of the opening end thereof so as to form cylindrical space between the small diameter portion and the inner wall of the separation chamber. Further, the discharged pipe is fluid-tightly connected and directly fixed to the housing at the opening end of the separation chamber.
