There is provided a fluid machine able to secure a sectional area of a
passage sufficient for gaseous fluid flow from a suction port to a
compression mechanism, while able at the same time to achieve a reduction
in size of the outline shape. In a scroll compressor where a scroll
compression mechanism is housed within a housing having a funnel shaped,
a compression mechanism main body of the scroll compression mechanism is
arranged in a wide opening section of a front housing, and a compression
mechanism driving section is arranged in a narrow section, a concave
section is formed on the outside of a thrust receiving surface which is
positioned on a bottom surface of the wide opening section and which
supports the compression mechanism.
