Abstract
A rotary compressor includes a compressor casing which includes a compression unit for sucking refrigerant gas from a low pressure side of a refrigerating cycle and ejecting the gas to a high pressure side of the refrigerating cycle, and a motor for driving the compression unit through a rotating shaft. The compressor has a gas hole formed on a rotor of the motor for causing a refrigerant gas below the motor to pass upward, and an oil separation plate having a central cylindrical portion, a curved portion continuous to the central cylindrical portion and curved in a radial direction, and an outer peripheral disk portion continuous to the curved portion and is fixed on the rotor by a rivet so that a lower end portion of the central cylindrical portion comes into close contact with the upper end of the rotor or an upper end plate of the rotor.
