An object of the present invention is to decrease the diameter of end plate of a fixed scroll and the diameter of orbiting locus circle of an orbiting scroll, by which the inside diameter of a housing is reduced, thereby the apparatus being made compact. The constitution is such that the center P of the end plate 211 of the fixed scroll 21 lies on the straight line D starting at the wrap end point T of the outermost end of the spiral wrap 212 and passing through the involute unrolled angle position C of the base circle A and at the position shifting one-half the orbiting radius a in the direction reverse to the outermost wrap end of the spiral wrap 212.
A scroll type fluid apparatus comprising a fixed scroll and orbiting scroll being engaged with each other by spiral wraps on their respective end plates, said orbiting scroll being revolved with respect to said fixed scroll while its rotation is checked by a rotation check mechanism, wherein the center of the end plate of said fixed scroll lies along a line extending from the outermost end of said spiral wrap through the involute unrolled angle position on the circumference of the base circle of the spiral wrap at a distance of one-half the orbiting radius from the involute unrolled angle position in a direction from said involute unrolled angle position extending away from said outermost end of said spiral wrap.
