The present invention provides a rotary compressor capable of significantly reducing the loss attributable to mechanical friction. Since an outer rotor 2 is connected via connecting plates 4 to an inner rotor 3, when the outer rotor 2 is rotated by external rotational force, the inner rotor 3 can rotate together with the outer rotor 2 in the same direction. At that time, the rotors 2 and 3 rotate at positions offset relative to each other so that partition pieces 2d on the outer rotor 2 perform circular movement within partition grooves 3b in the inner rotor 3 while turning the connecting plates 4. Thus, the rotors 2 and 3 rotate together, with at least two partition pieces 2d turning all the time along the inner surfaces of the associated partition grooves 3b in a non-contact manner, so that a fluid from an inflow port 1d flows into a space between the rotors 2 and 3 partitioned by the partition pieces 2d and the partition grooves 3b, the fluid being discharged through an outflow port 1e.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A rotary compressor comprising a casing having an inflow port and an outflow port for a fluid which open on its inner surface, a cylindrical outer rotor rotatably housed in the casing, and a cylindrical inner rotor rotatably supported at an eccentric position within the outer rotor, said rotors being rotated in a predetermined direction to introduce a fluid from the inflow port into a space between the rotors, the fluid being discharged through the outflow port, wherein:said outer rotor has an inner peripheral surface provided with at least one or more protruding portions for partitioning which are radially inwardly raised and are circumferentially spaced apart from one another;said inner rotor has an outer peripheral surface provided with at least one or more recessed portions for partitioning which are radially inwardly recessed and are circumferentially spaced apart from one another; andsaid outer rotor and said inner rotor are connected to each other in such a manner that said protruding portions for partitioning of said outer rotor move circularly in a non-contact manner along inner surfaces of said recessed portions for partitioning of said inner rotor.
