Provided is a rotary compressor excellent in energy saving performance and reliability by improving sliding performance of a sliding portion and ensuring sealability in a working chamber. An oil groove is formed at a position facing a vane end face on an end plate. The oil groove communicates with an inside of a sealed container, and is exposed in a gap between a leading end surface of a vane and an outer peripheral surface of an annular piston formed when the leading end surface of the vane is in abutment on the outer peripheral surface of the annular piston.
