Abstract
A scroll compressor is provided with injection tubes which extend through an upper shell and into a fixed scroll member. The injection tubes are fixed relative to the fixed scroll member, and may be press-fit or otherwise secured. This arrangement simplifies the provision of injection ports into a scroll compressor.
