Abstract: The rotary compressor is constructed such that two oil cooler pipes are arranged in the vicinity of two compressing elements located at the opposite ends of an electrically driving element. With this construction, cooling performances of the rotary compressor can be doubled.

In this case, since the temperature of refrigerant gas to flow into the oil cooler pipe can be lowered, the lubricant can be cooled at a high efficiency.
