Abstract: A variable displacement swash plate compressor includes a displacement control valve that is configured to change crank chamber pressure, and an opening adjusting valve that adjusts an amount of refrigerant sucked into a suction chamber. The opening adjusting valve includes a valve case, a first valve element, a second valve element, and an urging spring. The valve case has a valve seat on which the second valve element is seated. The valve seat regulates movement of the second valve element toward the first valve element. A sealing member is provided between an inner peripheral surface of the valve case that defines a second valve chamber and an outer peripheral surface of the second valve element to prevent refrigerant in the second valve chamber so that leakage between a bleed passage and a control passage is prevented.

Abstract: A variable displacement swash plate type compressor includes a crank chamber, a suction chamber, a drive shaft, a swash plate, and a bleeding passage connecting the crank chamber and the suction chamber. The bleeding passage has an axial passage and first and second radial passages in the drive shaft. The second radial passage opens on an outer peripheral surface of the drive shaft at a position that is closer to the swash plate than the first radial passage. The first radial passage is in constant communication with the crank chamber. The drive shaft has a valve member that is movable in the axial direction with the swash plate. The second radial passage is connected to the crank chamber when the swash plate is at maximum or minimum inclination angles and disconnected from the crank chamber by the valve member when the swash plate is at an intermediate inclination angle.
