Abstract
A compressor includes a motor having a rotor mounted to a free end of a crank shaft and a stator in a motor housing, and a bearing assembly supporting the crank shaft on the crank shaft housing adjacent the motor housing. The bearing assembly includes a bearing housing mounted to the crank shaft housing and including a bore; and a pair of spaced bearings mounted in the bore of the bearing housing and receiving the crank shaft. The space between the bearings is selected to allow the free end of the crank shaft to deform in synchronization with the movement of the stator and maintain a gap between the rotor and stator over the operating range of the motor.
