20100166589SCROLL TYPE FLUID MACHINE - The invention reduces a centrifugal force of a orbiting scroll which acts on an auxiliary crank mechanism. A crank pin which is eccentric from a main shaft portion is formed in a drive shaft, and a main balance weight is provided in a base end side of the crank pin. The main shaft portion of the drive shaft is rotatably supported by using a main bearing, and the crank pin is attached to a orbiting bearing which is provided in a back face side of a orbiting scroll. Further, an internal gap of the main bearing is set to a value which is larger than a value obtained by subtracting the double value of an eccentric amount difference between an eccentric amount of an auxiliary crank shaft and an eccentric amount of the drive shaft from an internal gap of the orbiting bearing. Accordingly, the internal gap of the main bearing does not come to 0 even if a compressor comes to a steady state.07-01-2010
