Compressor

A compressor comprising:

• a housing assembly that comprises a plurality of housing members including a first housing member and a second housing member, the housing assembly being formed by connecting the housing members together;
• a gasket that is interposed between the first housing member and the second housing member;
• a refrigerant compressor that is disposed in the housing assembly and configured to compress refrigerant that is taken in from outside;
• and
• an oil reservoir portion that is provided in the housing assembly and in which lubricant oil that is separated from discharged refrigerant is accumulated, wherein
• the gasket includes a plurality of slits that are arranged at intervals so as to extend along a peripheral edge of the gasket, and a plurality of interval portions that are located between the slits,
• the first housing member has an end face that faces the gasket, and a plurality of grooves is formed in the end face at positions corresponding to the interval portions such that each groove faces its corresponding interval portion,
• in a state in which the first housing member and the second housing member are connected to each other with the gasket interposed therebetween, the plurality of slits communicate with each other via the grooves to thereby form part of an oil passage through which lubricant oil in the oil reservoir portion flows to the refrigerant compressor, and
• the slits form throttles of the oil passage.
