Scroll compressor with a lubrication arrangement

A scroll compressor including at least:

• a compression unit configured to compress refrigerant and including at least a first fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll arrangement,
• a drive shaft configured to drive the orbiting scroll arrangement in an orbital movement, the drive shaft including at least:
• a lubrication channel configured to be supplied with oil from an oil sump and extending over at least a part of a length of the drive shaft, and
• a first lubrication hole fluidly connected to the lubrication channel and emerging in an outer wall of the drive shaft,
• a driving unit coupled to the drive shaft and arranged for driving in rotation the drive shaft about a rotation axis (A),
• a first and a second bearings axially spaced apart along the rotation axis of the drive shaft and each configured to engage the drive shaft,
• wherein a space between the first and second bearings and around the drive shaft at least partially defines a first annular gap, the first lubrication hole emerges in the first annular gap, the first bearing and the drive shaft define a first oil recess fluidly connected to the first annular gap, and the second bearing and the drive shaft define a second oil recess fluidly connected to the first annular gap.
