Multiple cylinder rotary compressor and refrigeration cycle apparatus

1. A multiple cylinder rotary compressor comprising:

a compressor body including a hermetic case, the hermetic case housing inside a rotating shaft rotatable around a central axis,

an electric motor section connected to one end side of the rotating shaft, and

a compression mechanism body connected to a second end side of the rotating shaft;

the compression mechanism body including:

a first compression mechanism section, a second compression mechanism section adjacent to the first compressor mechanism, and a third compression mechanism section adjacent to the second compressor mechanism, and arranged so as to stack with each other in an axial direction of the rotating shaft,

a first partition plate disposed between the first compression mechanism section and the second compression mechanism section, and a second partition plate disposed between the second compression mechanism section and the third compression mechanism section, wherein a distance of the second partition plate from the electric motor section is greater than a distance of the first partition plate from the electric motor section, and

a primary bearing and a secondary bearing supporting the rotating shaft on both end sides of the compression mechanism body along the axial direction of the rotating shaft; and

the compression mechanism sections each including:

a cylinder forming inside a respective cylinder chamber,

an eccentric section, attached to the rotating shaft and disposed in the respective cylinder chamber,

a roller, fitted to the eccentric section and rotating eccentrically within the respective cylinder chamber during a rotation of the rotating shaft, and

a blade dividing the inside of the cylinder chamber into two, wherein

the second partition plate is formed as one component that is not divided and constitutes a partition plate bearing supporting the rotating shaft by keeping the second partition plate in sliding contact with an outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft,

the eccentric sections, disposed in the respective cylinder chambers of the first compression mechanism section and the second compression mechanism section, are formed integrally with the rotating shaft,

the eccentric section, disposed in the respective cylinder chamber of the third compression mechanism, is formed as a separate component from the rotating shaft and attached to the rotating shaft

a suction passage, supplying a working fluid to the second compression mechanism section and the third compression mechanism section, is formed in the second partition plate, wherein the second partition plate does not have a discharge hole, and

wherein the first partition plate has a discharge hole.

2. The multiple cylinder rotary compressor according to claim 1 , wherein an external dimension of a portion of the rotating shaft, to which the eccentric section disposed in the cylinder chamber of the third compression mechanism section is attached, is formed smaller than a sliding diameter dimension of the partition plate bearing.

3. A refrigeration cycle apparatus comprising:

a multiple cylinder rotary compressor according to claim 1 ;

a condenser connected to the multiple cylinder rotary compressor;

an expansion device connected to the condenser; and

an evaporator connected between the expansion device and the multiple cylinder rotary compressor.
