A THRUST PLATE FOR A HORIZONTAL SCROLL COMPRESSOR AND A HORIZONTAL SCROLL COMPRESSOR HAVING THE SAME

摘要

A thrust plate for a compressor may include first and second ends and a feed hole. The first end may include a thrust surface. The second end may include a lubricant accumulation feature. The feed hole may extend between the lubricant accumulation feature and the thrust surface to provide communication therebetween. The feed hole may be angled relative to a longitudinal axis of the thrust plate such that lubricant flows through the feed hole from the lubricant accumulation feature to the thrust surface.
