  • Patent number: 11773853
    Abstract: Provided is a multi-stage screw compressor with which an intermediate shaft section of a rotor can be made shorter. A two-stage screw compressor includes a front-stage compressing mechanism 1 which has a front-stage male rotor 11A and a front-stage female rotor 11B, and which compresses air, and a rear-stage compressing mechanism 2 which has a rear-stage male rotor 12A and a rear-stage female rotor 12B, and which further compresses the air compressed by the front-stage compressing mechanism 1. The front-stage male rotor 11A and the rear-stage male rotor 12A are configured to be coaxial, and the front-stage female rotor 11B and the rear-stage female rotor 12B are configured to be coaxial. An axial delivery pocket 34 of the front-stage compressing mechanism 1 and an axial intake pocket 39 of the rear-stage compressing mechanism 2 are arranged in a positional relation of partly overlapping with each other in the axial direction of the rotor, and are separated from each other by a separating wall 41.
