Abstract: In a scroll compressor, an outer wall curve of a scroll lap of a fixed scroll and an inner wall curve of a scroll lap of an orbiting scroll are formed of involute curves whose basic circle radius is defined as “a”, an inner wall curve of the scroll lap of the fixed scroll and an outer wall curve of the scroll lap of the orbiting scroll are formed of involute curves whose basic circle radius is defined as “b”, and a value of a/b which is a ratio of the basic circle radius a and the basic circle radius b is set to a value exceeding 1.0 and less than 1.5. With this structure, a compression chamber formed on the side of the inner wall of the scroll lap of the orbiting scroll is compressed faster than a compression chamber formed on the side of the outer wall of the scroll lap of the orbiting scroll, and leakage loss during compression process can be reduced.

Abstract: A surface of a fixed scroll which is opposed to a end plate of an orbiting scroll existing outside of a lap of the fixed scroll is formed with: a substantially annular seal portion which extends such as to have an outer wall surface of the fixed scroll outwardly extending from an inner wall surface of outermost periphery of the lap substantially along the inner wall surface, and which comes into slide contact with the end plate of the orbiting scroll; a substantially annular recess located outside of the substantially annular seal portion; and a recess which is brought into communication with an intake port of the fixed scroll independently from the substantially annular recess. With this, back pressure of the orbiting scroll is increased, and turning-over phenomenon of the orbiting scroll can be suppressed.

Abstract: A heat radiator includes a heat absorbing element, a heat radiating element, and a pump connected with the heat absorbing element and the heat radiating element to define a closed circuit. The pump circulates a refrigerant through the closed circuit. The heat absorbing element includes a heat-exchanging portion for transferring heat generated by a heating element to the refrigerant, a cover joined to a peripheral edge of the heat-exchanging portion to define a refrigerant flow channel therebetween, and one or more connecting members disposed within the refrigerant flow channel and having opposite ends joined to the heat-exchanging portion and the cover, respectively, to connect the heat-exchanging portion and the cover with each other.
