[0042] The dynamic scroll plate and the static scroll plate are provided with scroll teeth respectively, the scroll teeth of the dynamic scroll plate and the scroll teeth of the static scroll plate are matched with each other, when the compressor is running, the dynamic scroll plate of the compressor rotates relative to the static scroll plate, the dynamic scroll plate and the static scroll plate inevitably have machining errors in the axial dimension, in order to compensate the machining errors in the axial dimension of the dynamic scroll plate and the static scroll plate and reduce the axial leakage caused by the machining errors, in some technologies, a tooth top sealing strip structure is added on the tooth top of the scroll teeth of the dynamic scroll plate or the static scroll plate, this design can reduce the axial wear of the dynamic scroll plate and the static scroll plate to a certain extent, but with the passage of time of the compressor, the sealing strip will also be worn to a certain extent, and the leakage problem is still possible.

[0043] In order to compensate the wear of the tooth top sealing strip, in some technologies, teeth are arranged on the sealing strip, this structure is to process some tooth-like structures on the sealing strip. When the sealing strip is not worn, the tooth-like structure is extruded; when the sealing strip is worn to a certain extent, the tooth-like structure will pop up to its original state, so as to compensate the worn gap. However, the sealing strip with tooth structure has the problem of difficult processing, and the size of the tooth is small, the compensation effect is limited; at the same time, the tooth has large plastic deformation, and the tooth is easy to retract, which reduces the sealing reliability.

Figure 7The plurality of curved segments 31 are arranged along the extension direction of the first vortex tooth 11, so that the plurality of curved segments 31 are combined to form the first metal elastic member 30. By using the plurality of curved segments 31 to form the first metal elastic member 30, the plurality of curved segments 31 can be machined separately and then combined, thereby reducing the machining difficulty of the first metal elastic member 30.
