An electromagnetic linear motor is described. It comprises a tubular stator (1) having a longitudinal axis (W); and a permanently magnet (7) with poles oriented along the axis and linearly movable along said axis inside the stator (1). The stator (1) comprises at least two columns (A, B) formed by electromagnets (2), each electromagnet (2) comprising a core (U) formed by a central straight segment (4) and two end polar expansions (5) all being oriented towards theand orthogonally tosaid axis (W), The columns are circularly arranged around said the permanent magnet (7), and mutually linearly offset along said axis.

The invention relates to a swashplate (5) for a swashplate compressor (1) comprising a main swashplate body (8), which is made from a sintering material, and to a method for producing the swashplate (5).

The whirling vibration of a rotating main shaft is reduced to decrease abnormal wear of a wobble plate rotation preventing mechanism, so that durability is improved. A inner ring 27 of a wobble plate rotation preventing mechanism 21 has a first support portion 52 of which an outer peripheral surface is supported by an inner peripheral surface of a guide hole 2A of a cylinder block 2 and a second support portion 53 of which an inner peripheral surface supports the rotating main shaft via a plain bearing 51, and the first support portion 52 and the second support portion 53 are arranged to overlap within a range from a minimum inclination angle of a swash plate 8 to a maximum inclination angle of the swash plate 8 in an axial direction of a rotating main shaft 5.

Disclosed herein is a double-headed swash type compressor, and a distance between an outer peripheral surface of a shaft (20) and an inner peripheral surface of a shaft bore (11) is greater than a distance between the outer peripheral surface of the shaft (20) and an inner peripheral surface of a journal bearing (30).

A variable displacement swash plate type compressor includes a rotary shaft, a swash plate, and an actuator capable of changing the inclination angle of the swash plate. The actuator includes a movable body. The movable body includes a sliding portion that slides on the rotary shaft or the lug member and a movable body-side transmission portion that engages with the swash plate at a position radially outward of the rotational axis of the swash plate. The movable body-side transmission portion is configured such that a perpendicular line or a normal to the movable body-side transmission portion and the rotational axis of the rotary shaft intersect with each other in a zone surrounded by the sliding portion when viewed in a direction that is perpendicular to a direction in which the rotational axis of the rotary shaft extends and perpendicular to the first direction.

A variable displacement swash-plate compressor includes an actuator that is configured to change the inclination angle of a swash plate. The actuator includes a movable body that moves along a drive shaft axis. The movable body includes an acting portion that is configured to push the swash plate with the pressure in a control pressure chamber. The swash plate includes a receiving portion that contacts and is pushed by the acting portion. The acting portion and the receiving portion contact each other at an acting position. A drive-shaft-parallel line segment is defined that contains the acting position and connects a proximal end of the acting portion and a proximal end of the receiving portion to each other, while extending in parallel with the drive shaft axis. The drive-shaft-parallel line segment is shorter when the inclination angle of the swash plate is maximized than when the inclination angle is minimized.

A cryogenic pump for pumping cryogenic fluid is provided. The pump includes a pump assembly adapted for exposure to cryogenic fluid that includes a plurality of pumping elements disposed about a pump axis. A drive assembly drives the pumping elements to pump cryogenic fluid. A plurality of actuating elements are arranged circumferentially about the pump axis, each actuating element operatively interconnecting the drive assembly with a respective one of the pumping elements. Each actuating element includes a first portion disposed a first radial distance from the pump axis and a second portion disposed a second radial distance from the pump axis with the first radial distance being less than the second radial distance at ambient temperature.

Setting of the pressure sensing mechanism which controls an opening degree of the first valve body is changed by transmitting driving force of the driving force transmission member to the first valve body via the second valve body. According to this configuration, when the second valve body has been opened while conduction of electricity to the electromagnetic solenoid has been stopped, the refrigerant gas from the discharge chamber is supplied to the control pressure chamber via the passage, the valve chamber, the communication opening, the insertion hole, the first passage, the second passage, the housing chamber, the passage, the second pressure adjusting chamber, the communication hole, the first pressure adjusting chamber, the first shaft inner passage, and the second shaft inner passage.
