11668297 · 2023-06-06 · ·

A pump includes a cam plate, and an input shaft for rotationally driving the cam plate. A pump housing at least partially surrounds the cam plate and defines a cam plate oil reservoir around at least a portion of the cam plate. A bearing support is at least partially disposed within the cam plate oil reservoir. The bearing support defines a bearing oil reservoir at least partially surrounding a portion of the input shaft. At least one passage extends between the bearing oil reservoir and the cam plate oil reservoir. Dynamic motion imparted on oil within the cam plate oil reservoir facilitates migration of oil from the cam plate oil reservoir through a bearing at least partially supported by the bearing support into the bearing oil reservoir and through the at least one passage into the cam plate oil reservoir.

Variable displacement swash plate type compressor

In a compressor of the present invention, a first acting portion and a second acting portion are formed at a rear end of a first cylinder portion of a movable body. The first and the second acting portions are formed by stepping across a top dead center surface, and are plane-symmetrical with respect to the top dead center surface. Further, an affected portion is formed on a front surface of a swash plate. The first and the second acting portions and the affected portion are located eccentrically to a top dead center position corresponding portion side from a drive shaft axis.

DOUBLE- HEADED PISTON TYPE SWASH PLATE COMPRESSOR

A double-headed piston type swash plate compressor includes a rotation shaft, a housing, a swash plate, two cylinder bores, a double-headed piston, and two shoes. The double-headed piston includes two shoe holders, a neck, two heads, and two coupling portions. At least one of the two coupling portions includes a load receiving portion. The load receiving portion is configured to receive bending load that is applied from the swash plate to the double-headed piston and acts toward an inner side in the radial direction. The load receiving portion is separated from the wall surface of the cylinder bore when load applied to the double-headed piston is less than a specific threshold value. The load receiving portion abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder bore and receives the bending load when the load applied to the double-headed piston is greater than the specific threshold value.
