Abstract: The present invention is intended to remove foreign matter such as worn powder in a refrigerating cycle and enhance the reliability in a refrigerating cycle using, in particular, HFC refrigerant. In the invention, accordingly, a coil shaped connection piping is provided in at least front portion or rear portion of a throttling unit, a fine pipe is connected to a lower portion of the connection piping, and a collector for collecting foreign matter in the refrigerating cycle is coupled to this fine pipe. Foreign matter in the refrigerant is separated from the refrigerant by centrifugal force, and is collected in the collector. Moreover, the foreign matter collecting effect is enhanced by disposing a magnetic piece in the collector.

Abstract: The magnetoresistance effect element is of a multilayered structure having at least magnetic layers and an intermediate layer of an insulating material, a semiconductor or an antiferromagnetic material against the magnetic layers, and the magnetoresistance effect element has terminals formed at least on the opposite magnetic layers, respectively, so that a current flows in the intermediate layer. The film surfaces of all the magnetic layers constituting the magnetoresistance effect element are opposed substantially at right angles to the recording surface of a magnetic recording medium. Therefore, the area of the magnetic layers facing the recording surface of the magnetic recording medium can be extremely reduced, and thus the magnetic field from a very narrow region of the high-density recorded magnetic recording medium can be detected by the current which has a tunneling characteristic and passes through the intermediate layer.

The compression mechanism includes compression elements, a rotary shaft and bearing. The compression elements includes a cylinder block, piston, and vane. The cylinder block has a cylinder hole and vane groove. The compression mechanism and the motor are housed in the hermetically sealed housing. The cylinder block is made up of sintered metal. The compression mechanism is welded to the hermetically sealed housing in a region other than the cylinder block. Preferably, the cylinder block includes a first cylinder block and a second cylinder block, and the first cylinder block and the second cylinder block are formed by machining sinter-molded blanks identical in shape. With this configuration, it is possible to reduce the machining processes and to make the blank parts usable in common, thereby realizing a low-cost compressor.
