• a bearing that is press-fitted and fixed to the recess of the casing and rotatably supports the shaft;
• and
• a shaft seal that is disposed in the recess on a side of the through hole of the bearing and stops working fluid from flowing out of the casing, in which a motor to which the shaft is attached revolves the movable scroll with respect to the fixed scroll to compress the working fluid,
• wherein the bearing has an outer diameter dimension larger than an outer diameter dimension of the shaft seal,
• the shaft seal has a structure separate from the bearing, and
