Zusammenfassung:A scroll compressor has a pair of interleaved scrolls. An Oldham coupling is attached to the orbiting scroll to prevent rotation of the orbiting scroll. This Oldham coupling has keys that are slidingly received in slots. One side of each key is loaded while the opposite side is non-loaded.

In another embodiment, the stepped or profiled surface is provided on the non-loaded side of the slot.
