Claim:
A noise reducing device for a hermetic type compressor, the device comprising: a hermetic container to which a suction pipe is penetratingly coupled; a compressor main body disposed in the hermetic container; a suction muffler disposed at a suction side of the compressor main body; and a connection member disposed between the suction pipe and an inlet of the suction muffler; and at least one plate film disposed within the connection member, that controls flow of a refrigerant, wherein the at least one plate film is formed of a flexible material so as to be bent by sucked refrigerant, wherein the at least one plate film comprises an inclined surface on an insertion side of the refrigerant, the inclined surface extending at an incline from an inner circumferential surface of the connection member to a central portion of the at least one plate film and a flat surface opposite to the inclined surface, the flat surface extending substantially perpendicular to the inner circumferential surface of the connection member, such that a thickness of the at least one plate film becomes gradually thinner as it extends toward the central portion of the at least one plate film.
