The present invention relates to a suction pulsation reducing device of a swash plate type compressor, and more particularly, to a suction pulsation reduction apparatus provided on a suction channel formed in a rear head of a swash plate type compressor, in which a moving range of a core portion is limited and all parts to be mounted on a suction channel are integrally formed in a case.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a capacity control valve with which it is possible to efficiently discharge a liquid refrigerant irrespective of the pressure of a suction chamber. A capacity control valve (1) includes: a valve main body (10) having a first communication passage (11), a second communication passage (12), a third communication passage (13), and a main valve seat (15a); a valve body (20) having an intermediate communication passage (26), a main valve part (21b), and an auxiliary valve part (23d); and a solenoid (30) equipped with a first plunger (34) having a first rod (33), and a second plunger (35) having a second rod (36), the first rod (33) opens and closes the main valve part (21b), and the second rod (36) opens and closes the auxiliary valve part (23d).

A control valve includes: a body having a control chamber communication port and a suction chamber communication port; a valve element that moves toward and away from a valve hole to close and opening a bleed valve, the ports communicating with each other through the valve hole; a solenoid to generate a drive force in an opening direction of the bleed valve; and a pressure sensing element to sense a pressure in the suction chamber or a pressure in the control chamber, and generate a counterforce against the drive force from the solenoid depending on a magnitude of the sensed pressure. An opening degree of the bleed valve is controlled so that the sensed pressure becomes a set pressure. A bleed passage for delivering the refrigerant introduced through the control chamber communication port to the suction chamber even while the bleed valve is in a closed state is formed.

A capacity control valve (1) includes a valve main body (10) having a first communication passage (11), a second communication passage (12), a third communication passage (13), and a main valve seat (15a), a valve element (20) having an intermediate communication passage (29), a main valve portion (21c), and an auxiliary valve portion (23d), a solenoid (30) that drives a rod (36) having an auxiliary valve seat (26c), and a first biasing member (43) that biases in the valve closing direction of the main valve portion (21c). A spring constant of the first biasing member (43) has a characteristic that the spring constant is increased in an opened state of the main valve portion (21c) and decreased in a closed state. The capacity control valve can efficiently discharge a liquid coolant and lower drive force of a compressor at a liquid coolant discharging operation.

A capacity control valve includes a valve housing having a main valve seat portion formed on an inner peripheral surface, a main valve body that has a main valve portion capable of seating on the main valve seat portion and capable of blocking communication between a discharge port and a control port depending on a driving force of a solenoid, a relief valve that is opened by pressure, a first flow channel that allows the control port and a suction port to communicate with each other when the relief valve is opened. A second flow channel formed at least partially in parallel with the first flow channel allows the control port and the suction port to communicate with each other. A spool valve body is reciprocally disposed in a sleeve and capable of adjusting an opening of the second flow channel depending on the driving force of the solenoid.

A capacity control valve (1) includes a valve main body (10) having a first communication passage (11), a second communication passage (12), a third communication passage (13), and a main valve seat (15a), a valve element (20) having an intermediate communication passage (29), a main valve portion (21c), and an auxiliary valve portion (23d), a solenoid (30) that drives a rod (36) having an auxiliary valve seat (26c), and a first biasing member (43) that biases in the valve closing direction of the main valve portion (21c). The rod (36) is relatively moved with respect to the valve element (20) so as to open and close the auxiliary valve portion. The capacity control valve can efficiently discharge a liquid coolant irrespective of pressure of a suction chamber and lower drive force of a compressor at a liquid coolant discharging operation.

A control valve includes: a first valve to control a flow rate of refrigerant flowing from a discharge chamber to a control chamber of a compressor; a second valve to control a flow rate of the refrigerant flowing from the control chamber to a suction chamber; a solenoid to generate a drive force in a first valve closing direction and a second valve opening direction; a biasing member to generate a biasing force in an first valve opening direction and a second valve closing direction; and a pressure sensing part to sense a pressure in the suction chamber or the control chamber, and generate a counterforce against the drive force. A state in which both of the first and second valves are open is present during an increase in the current supplied to the solenoid from zero to an upper limit current value, and an increase rate of an opening degree of the first valve is increased during a decrease in the current supplied to the solenoid, a predetermined lower limit current value being an inflection point of the increase.

A variable capacity compressor includes a compression chamber that compresses a working fluid, an inlet chamber to house the working fluid to be compressed, a discharge chamber to house the working fluid compressed in the compression chamber and discharged therefrom, a control pressure chamber to house a swash plate rotating in accordance with a rotation of the drive shaft, a supply passage to facilitate communication between the discharge chamber and the control pressure chamber, a bleed passage to facilitate communication between the control pressure chamber and the inlet chamber, a first control valve including a first valve portion to adjust an opening degree of the supply passage, a second control valve provided on the bleed passage and including a spool housing recess formed on the bleed passage, and a back pressure chamber between the spool and a bottom of the spool housing recess.

A suction damping device for a variable displacement compressor includes a rotor rotatably received within a stator disposed in a suction port of the variable displacement compressor. The rotor includes an aperture and the stator includes a pair of opposing openings in selective fluid communication with the aperture of the rotor. An electromagnetic device controls a rotational position of the rotor relative to the stator based on a condition of an electrically controlled valve used to control an angle of inclination of a swashplate of the variable displacement compressor. A changing of the rotational position of the rotor relative to the stator causes a variable overlap to be formed between the aperture of the rotor and the openings of the stator to control a flow of a refrigerant through the suction damping device.
