Refrigerant compressed by a first stage compression elements ( 30 ) run by a motor ( 20 ) is discharged in the closed container ( 10 ) via a silencer chamber ( 35 ) to cool the motor ( 20 ) before the refrigerant is led to a second stage compression element ( 40 ). The refrigerant is discharged from the second stage compression element ( 40 ) out of the compressor after it is further compressed in the second compression element ( 40 ). Thus, the motor ( 20 ) is cooled in a simple cooling mechanism during normal operation of the compressor.

1. A multistage compressor including more than one compressing elements for compressing a refrigerant, and a driving element for driving said compression elements, said driving element and said compressing elements accommodated in an enclosed container, characterized in thatsaid refrigerant is discharged from one compression element directly to a discharge silencer chamber inside said enclosed container to cool said driving element before it returns to the compression element in the next stage. 2. The multistage compressor according to claim 1, characterized in thatsaid refrigerant discharged from said one compression element and having cooled said driving element flows out of said closed container and then returns to said compression element in the next stage through a connection tube connected to an upper section of said closed container and inlet of said compression element in the next stage. 3. A multistage compressor, including a closed container; a driving element in the form of an electric motor securely fixed in an upper section of said closed container; and a first stage and second stage compression elements provided in a lower section of said closed container for carrying out suction, compression and discharge of refrigerant in response to rotations of associated upper and lower cams mounted on the shaft of said motor, said compressor characterized by:a first stage refrigerant suction tube introduced from outside of said closed container and connected to said first stage compression element;a connection tube that extends out of the upper section of said closed container and returns to an inlet of said second stage compression element; anda second stage refrigerant discharge tube connected to an outlet of said second stage compression element and extending out of said closed container, whereinlow-pressure refrigerant sucked into said first stage compression element through said pre-stage refrigerant suction tube is compressed to an intermediate pressure; said refrigerant compressed to the intermediate pressure is discharged from the outlet of said first stage compression element directly to a discharge silencer chamber inside said enclosed container, thereby cooling said driving element; said refrigerant discharged into said closed container is returned to the inlet of said second stage compression element through said connection tube; and that said refrigerant sucked into said second stage compression element is compressed to a high pressure in said second stage compression element before said refrigerant is discharged by said second stage refrigerant discharge tube out of said closed container. 4. The multistage compressor according to claim 3, wherein each of said first stage compression element and second stage compression element comprises:upper and lower eccentric cams formed on the shaft of said motor;two rollers rotatably fitted on said eccentric cams;two cylinders each having an inner surface on which outer surface of said roller rotatably abuts as said shaft is rotated;an intermediate partition panel separating said cylinders;two support panels enclosing the upper and lower ends of the respective cylinders;two vanes, one for each cylinders for partitioning a respective closed space defined by the respective outer surface of said roller, inner surface of said cylinder, said support panel, and said intermediate panel, into a suction space and a discharge space;two inlets, one for each cylinder, for sucking refrigerant into said suction spaces;two outlets, one for each cylinder, for discharging compressed refrigerant out of the respective discharge spaces, and whereinthe refrigerant sucked into the respective discharging spaces via said respective inlets is compressed in the respective discharge spaces and discharged from the respective outlets in response to the rotation of said shaft.
