A refrigerant compressor for use in refrigerators, air conditioners, heat pumps or the like apparatus. The refrigerant pump has a casing which encases a combination of a compressor and an electric motor. A spring guide has an attaching base portion fixed to a bearing supporting a crank shaft driven by the motor, and an oil pipe connected to the attaching base such that the inside of the oil pipe opens to one end of the crank shaft. The oil pipe is bent so that the free end thereof is immersed in the lubricating oil in the case. The oil pipe receives a closely-coiled spring which is fixed at its one end to the end of the crank shaft while the other end is immersed in the lubricating oil. As the compressor operates, the coiled spring rotates in the oil pipe so that the lubricating oil is sucked by the lead of the coiled spring through the gap formed between the inner peripheral surface of the oil pipe and the coiled spring.

A refrigerant compressor comprising: a case encasing a compressor section and a driving section including an electric motor; a crank shaft adapted to be driven by the rotor of said electric motor; an oil pipe connected at its one end to an opening of an attaching base fixed to a bearing of said crank shaft, the other end of said pipe being immersed in the lubricating oil collected in said case, said opening of said attaching base being substantially concentric with said crank shaft; said crank shaft having a journal portion, an eccentric portion and a main shaft portion, said journal portion being rotatably supported by said bearing which cooperates with said attaching base in defining an oil pressure chamber; and a closely-coiled spring received by said oil pipe, said coiled spring being fixed at its one end to one end of said crank shaft with the other end being immersed in said oil through an end opening of said oil pipe, said closely-coiled spring being screwed at its one end into a threaded bore formed in said end of said crank shaft, with the other end having a conical form.
