Scroll compressor having a rotation shaft with an oil flow path formed therein

A scroll compressor comprising:

• a rotation shaft;
• an upper frame to support an upper end of the rotation shaft;
• a lower frame to support a lower end of the rotation shaft;
• an orbital scroll comprising a first base plate that is attached to the upper frame, a first wrap having a spiral shape that extends from an upper surface of the first base plate, and a boss portion that extends from a bottom surface of the first base plate;
• and
• a non-orbital scroll comprising a second base plate that covers an upper side of the orbital scroll, and a second wrap having a spiral shape that extends from a bottom surface of the second base plate,
• wherein the rotation shaft comprises:
• an oil flow path formed therein,
• an upper frame support portion that is inserted into the upper frame,
• a boss insertion portion to receive the boss portion, the boss insertion portion being recessed from an upper surface of the upper frame support portion and defined by a bottom surface and an inner peripheral surface of the upper frame support portion,
• an oil residual groove that is downwardly recessed from the bottom surface of the boss insertion portion to a depth below the bottom surface of the boss insertion portion,
• a first recessed portion that is recessed from the inner peripheral surface of the upper frame support portion,
• a second recessed portion that is recessed from an outer peripheral surface of the upper frame support portion,
• one or more guide holes which penetrate the upper frame support portion and connects the first recessed portion with the second recessed portion, and
• wherein an upper end of the oil flow path spaced apart from the oil residue groove is formed at the bottom surface and the bottom surface of the boss insertion portion is configured to face a lower end of the boss portion, wherein the upper end of the flow path is in communication with the bottom surface of the boss insertion portion, and wherein an oil passage that connects the upper end of the oil flow path with the oil residual groove is formed in the bottom portion of the boss insertion portion.
