Patent ID: 7314358

Claim:
A scroll fluid machine comprising: a fixed scroll having a fixed wrap and a first support hole; an orbiting scroll having a second support hole and an orbiting wrap which engages with the fixed wrap to form a compression chamber; and a self-rotation-preventing device disposed in the first support hole of the fixed scroll and the second support hole of the orbiting scroll to prevent the orbiting scroll from rotating on its own axis, said self-rotation-preventing device comprising a bearing in the second support hole of the orbiting scroll, a crank pin in which one axial portion is rotatably supported by the bearing and the other axial portion is rotatably supported by the first support hole of the fixed scroll, and an adjusting member interposed between an inner circumferential surface of the second support hole and an outer circumferential surface of the bearing to correct an error in orbiting motion between the fixed scroll and the orbiting scroll, said adjusting member being made of metal ring that pressingly fits in the second support hole of the orbiting scroll, said ring having a plurality of elastic protrusions that axially project on each side of the ring to elastically support the bearing.
