• a driving scroll with a wrap plate,
• a driven scroll with a wrap plate, which is combined with said driving scroll to form a compression chamber therebetween,
• an Oldhams coupling for transmitting a driving force of said driving scroll to said driven scroll,
• a partition plate fixed to said container and having a supporting pin provided at a position near the inner wall of said container,
• a movable bearing support which is placed below said partition plate and has a bearing engaged with said supporting pin, the engagement between said supporting pin and said bearing comprising means for supporting said movable bearing support for swingable motion around said supporting pin, and
• a rotation controlling means which causes a swinging movement of said movable bearing support around said supporting pin along with said driven scroll whereby the distance between the axial centers of said driving and driven scrolls is changed.
