Compressor

A compressor comprising:

• a compression mechanism part, included in a hermetic container, for compressing refrigerant sucked from an outside of the hermetic container and discharging compressed refrigerant to a discharge space in the hermetic container;
• an electric motor part composed of a stator and a rotor, facing a first space which is at an opposite side, along an axial direction, of the discharge space with respect to the compression mechanism part in the hermetic container, for driving the compression mechanism part through a main shaft;
• a discharge tube provided in the hermetic container, being open to the first space;
• a passage at an external circumferential side of the compression mechanism part, for connecting the discharge space with the first space;
• and
• a fan provided at an end of the rotor, facing the first space, wherein the refrigerant discharged into the discharge space passes through the passage at the external circumferential side of the compression mechanism part to reach the first space, and passes the fan to be discharged to the outside of the hermetic container.
