An apparatus for changing capacity of scroll compressor comprises: a seal
member movably installed on one of facing surfaces of a fixed scroll so
as to seal a compression space made by the fixed scroll and orbiting
scroll; a back pressure passage formed to be communicated from a point,
where the seal member is contacted, to an outer circumferential surface
of fixed scroll; an exhaust pipe installed on outer circumferential
surface of the fixed scroll to be communicated with back pressure
passage; and an exhaust pipe opening/closing valve installed on center
part of exhaust pipe to open/close the exhaust pipe selectively, and
thereby, sealability can be improved and low capacity can be outputted
without decelerating orbiting scroll in low capacity operation.
