Abstract: A compressor may include a casing having a refrigerant inlet space therein that communicates with a suction pipe through which a refrigerant is suctioned into the casing; a high/low pressure separation plate that crosses an upper portion of a compression unit to partition the refrigerant inlet space positioned at a lower portion of the high/low pressure separation plate and a refrigerant discharge space positioned at an upper portion thereof; and a discharge guide. The discharge guide may be provided in the refrigerant discharge space and may be coupled with an upper surface of the high/low pressure separation plate to cover a communication hole of the high/low pressure separation plate that provides communication between the refrigerant inlet space and the refrigerant discharge space and at least a portion thereof may extend to a discharge pipe.

Abstract: A compressor may include: a casing (10) having a refrigerant inlet space (V1) therein communicating with a suction pipe suctioning a refrigerant; a high/low pressure separation plate (90) provided by crossing an upper part of a compression unit (50) to partition the refrigerant inlet space (V1) positioned at a lower portion of the high/low pressure separation plate (90) and a refrigerant discharge space (V2) positioned at an upper portion thereof; and a discharge guide (100). In this case, the discharge guide (100) is provided in the refrigerant discharge space (V2) and is combined with an upper surface of the high/low pressure separation plate (90) to cover a communicating hole 92? of the high/low pressure separation plate communicating the refrigerant inlet space (V1) with the refrigerant discharge space (V2) and at least a portion thereof extends to a discharge pipe (14).
