Patent ID: 7513753

Claim:
A variable capacity scroll compressor comprising: a control passage branched from a condenser and extending to a compression space of the scroll compressor such that high-pressure fluid of the condenser flows therethrough; an injection port having one end contacting the control passage and a second end contacting the compression space of the scroll compressor; an injection valve provided at the injection port to allow fluid to flow to the compression space of the scroll compressor when the high-pressure fluid of the condenser is applied from the control passage, while preventing the fluid from flowing when the high-pressure fluid of the condenser is not applied from the control passage to the compression space of the scroll compressor; one or more bypass ports provided along the compression space of a scroll member, the one or more bypass ports allowing fluid in compression to be bypassed at one or more points; a bypass passage having one end connected to the one or more bypass ports and a second end connected to a lower pressure side inside the compressor, wherein the injection valve has a body having a predetermined hole so that the fluid in compression can be bypassed through the bypass passage depending on a motion of the injection valve; a check valve configured to selectively connect the bypass passage to the one or more bypass ports, wherein the injection valve and the check valve are connected with each other by the injection port; and a control valve configured to allow at least high-pressure fluid of an exhaust passage of the scroll compressor to be selectively applied to the check valve to move the check valve to one of opening and closing positions.
