Compressor and vane therefor

Abstract

A compressor includes a cylinder assembly which is positioned inside a hermetic vessel having a suction flow path and discharging flow path, a Z-plate for dividing an inner space into a plurality of compression spaces in the cylinder assembly, rotating by a motor part so that gas is sucked, compressed and discharged, and a vane for dividing the respective compression spaces into a suction region and compression region, performing a reciprocating movement being contacted on both surfaces of the Z-plate. In addition, an oil slot for inflowing oil into the cylinder assembly is formed on a side surface of the vane. Therefore, friction generated at a sliding portion inside of the cylinder assembly can be reduced and performance deterioration of the compressor caused by operation noise and friction resistance of the compressor can be prevented.
