A scroll compressor of simple structure and low production cost which can be protected when abnormal pressure state or abnormal temperature state of the compressor comprises: a sealed casing including a first chamber for forming a low pressure and a second chamber for forming a high pressure which are divided by a separating panel; a driving unit built in the casing for generating a driving force; a compressed unit connected to the driving unit via a rotating shaft for compressing and discharging fluid when the driving unit is operated; and a protecting device mounted on one side of the separating panel for bypassing the fluid of high pressure or of high temperature in the second chamber to the first chamber when a pressure difference or temperature difference between the first and second chambers is larger than a set value.

1. A scroll compressor comprising: a hermetic casing including a first chamber for forming a low pressure and a second chamber for forming a high pressure which are divided by a separating panel; a driving unit mounted in the casing for generating a driving force; a compressor unit connected to the driving unit via a rotating shaft for compressing and discharging fluid when the driving unit is operated; and a protecting device responsive to the temperature and pressure of the fluid and mounted at the separating panel for bypassing the fluid of high pressure or of high temperature in the second chamber to the first chamber when a pressure difference or temperature difference between the first and second chambers is larger than a set value. 2. The compressor of claim 1, wherein the protecting device comprises: a shell including suction passage and a discharge passage on upper and lower parts and fixed to the separating panel; a thermal deformation member disposed in the shell to move in up-and-down direction for opening/closing the suction passage; and an elastic member disposed between a lower side surface of the thermal deformation member and an inner wall surface of the shell for providing the thermal deformation member with a predetermined elastic force. 3. The compressor of claim 2, wherein the shell is fixed in a through hole which is formed at the separating panel, a plurality of suction passages through which the fluid of high pressure in the second chamber passes are formed on an upper surface of the shell located in the second chamber, and the discharge passage through which the fluid passes is formed on a lower surface of the shell located in the first chamber. 4. The compressor of claim 2, wherein the upper surface of the shell is formed to be concave, that is, a center part is sunken. 5. The compressor of claim 2, wherein the shell is formed as a cone in which an area through which the fluid passes is increased gradually from the second chamber toward the first chamber. 6. The compressor of claim 2, wherein the thermal deformation member 48 is formed as a concave plate so as to adhere to the suction passage of the shell and close the suction passage, and is formed using a material which is distorted its body when it is heated by the heat higher than a predetermined level. 7. The compressor of claim 2, wherein the elastic member is formed as a conical coil spring. 8. The compressor of claim 3, wherein the upper surface of the shell is formed to be concave, that is, a center part is sunken. 9. The compressor of claim 3, wherein the shell is formed as a cone in which an area through which the fluid passes is increased gradually from the second chamber toward the first chamber.
