Two-cylinder hermetic compressor

A two-cylinder hermetic compressor comprising:

• an electric motor unit and a compression mechanism unit in a sealed container, wherein the electric motor unit and the compression mechanism unit are connected to each other by a shaft,
• the electric motor unit includes a stator fixed on an inner surface of the sealed container and a rotor that rotates in the stator,
• a first compression mechanism unit and a second compression mechanism unit are provided as the compression mechanism unit,
• the first compression mechanism unit includes a first cylinder and a first piston provided in the first cylinder,
• the second compression mechanism unit includes a second cylinder and a second piston provided in the second cylinder,
• a main bearing is disposed on one surface of the first cylinder and an intermediate plate is disposed on another surface of the first cylinder,
• the intermediate plate is disposed on one surface of the second cylinder and an auxiliary bearing is disposed on another surface of the second cylinder,
• the shaft includes a main shaft portion which is supported by the main bearing and to which the rotor is attached, a first eccentric portion to which the first piston is mounted, a second eccentric portion to which the second piston is mounted, and an auxiliary shaft portion supported by the auxiliary bearing,
• a thrust receiving portion is provided on a side of the second eccentric portion facing the auxiliary shaft portion,
• the auxiliary bearing is provided with a thrust surface on which an end face of the thrust receiving portion slides while the end face is contacting the thrust surface, and
• the thrust surface is formed with a ring groove,
• wherein an end face of the auxiliary bearing on an inner periphery side with respect to the ring groove is formed to be lower than an end face of the auxiliary bearing on an outer periphery side with respect to the ring groove, and the end face of the auxiliary bearing on the outer periphery side with respect to the ring groove is defined as the thrust surface.
