the stationary member and the rotary member being inside a hermetically sealed inner volume within the compressor arrangement;
the compressor arrangement comprising a stator with a winding arrangement generating an electromagnetic force inside the stator, the stator being arranged outside the hermetically sealed inner volume; and
the compressor arrangement further comprising a plurality of magnets directly attached to the rotary member and facing the winding arrangement in the stator such that the rotary member is entrained in rotation by a rotating electromagnetic field from the stator.
2 . Rotary compressor arrangement according to claim 1 further comprising: a rolling member eccentrically arranged with respect to the stationary member such that a chamber is created between them;
the arrangement further comprising at least one satellite element entrained in rotation by the rotary member; and
the at least one satellite element orbiting at an offset axis and entraining in rotation the rolling member and ensuring a contact between the stationary member and the rolling member.
3 . Rotary compressor arrangement according to claim 1 further comprising an upper plate and a lower plate arranged to close in height in a tight manner at least one compression chamber created between the stationary member and the rolling member.
4 . Rotary compressor arrangement according to claim 3 further comprising at least one segment element arranged between the upper and/or lower plates to allow a tight sealing of at least one compression chamber and the movement of the rolling member.
5 . Rotary compressor arrangement according to claim 2 wherein at least a pair of satellite elements is arranged in height in the rotary member in such a way that the magnets are located between them.
