A capacity control valve includes a valve housing provided a discharge port through which a discharge fluid of discharge pressure Pd passes, a suction port through which a suction fluid of suction pressure Ps passes, and a control port through which a control fluid of control pressure Pc passes, a rod configured to be driven by a solenoid, a main valve formed by a main valve seat and a main valve element and configured for opening and closing a communication between the discharge port and the control port in accordance with a movement of the rod, and a CS valve provided between the control port and the suction port and controlled by a dynamic pressure of a fluid flowing from the discharge port to the control port at an opening state of the main valve.

Provided are a variable-capacity compressor control valve with a reduced number of component machining steps, a reduced machining cost, a reduced number of components, and a reduced number of assembly steps as well as reduced sizes of components, and with a simple configuration that can adjust the bellows attachment length and can secure airtightness, and a method for assembling such a control valve. A closure member, which is adapted to close an upper-portion opening of a cylindrical stator on the side opposite to an attractor, is press-fitted into the upper-portion opening and welded therein.

A variable displacement compressor capable of preventing delay in pressure release of a controlled pressure chamber, such as a crank chamber. A switching valve (350) disposed downstream of a control valve of a pressure supply passage includes a main valve body (352) and a sub valve body (400). The main valve body (352) includes an internal passage (352d) providing communication between a first valve hole (104e1) communicating with a pressure supply passage (145a) between the control valve and the switching valve (350), and a second valve hole (151a) communicating with a pressure supply passage (145b) between the switching valve (350) and the crank chamber. The main valve body (352) provides communication between the second valve hole (151a) and a pressure release hole (351a1) communicating with the suction chamber, when pressure Pm in the pressure supply passage (145a) is lower than pressure Pc in the crank chamber. The sub valve body (400) closes the internal passage (352d) of the main valve body (352), when pressure Pm is lower than pressure Pc. The sub valve body (400) is lighter than the main valve body (352), and thus, when pressure Pm decreases, the sub valve body (400) actuates before the main valve body (352), to close the internal passage (352d) of the main valve body (352).

Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve with a simple configuration that can secure the size of a sub valve element portion of a sub valve element, which is adapted to open or close an in-valve release passage, and can improve the actuation property and reduce the size of the control valve. The sub valve element (17) is integrated with the plunger (37) for moving the main valve element (15) in the direction to open or close a valve orifice so that the sub valve element (17) always moves together with the plunger (37). The sub valve element (17) is securely inserted in the plunger (37).

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.

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.

A swash plate compressor including: a housing; a rotating shaft rotatably mounted to the housing; a swash plate accommodated in a crank chamber of the housing and rotating with the rotating shaft; a piston forming a compression chamber with the housing and interlocking with the swash plate to reciprocate; a discharge flow path guiding a refrigerant of the crank chamber to a suction chamber of the housing wherein an inclination angle of the swash plate is adjusted; and a discharge flow path control valve having a valve chamber provided in the discharge flow path and a valve core reciprocating inside the valve chamber, and the valve core includes: a first communication path constantly communicating the discharge flow path; and a second communication path communicating the discharge flow path when differential pressure between pressure of the crank chamber and pressure of the suction chamber is within a certain pressure range.

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.

[Object] To provide a variable capacity compressor configured to achieve an enhancement of an activation performance of a compressor and reduce an amount of internally circulating refrigerant during an intermediate stroke in a simple structure.

[Solving Means] A supply passage 40 configured to cause a discharge chamber 34 and a control pressure chamber 4 to communicate with each other; a first bleed passage 42 configured to cause the control pressure chamber 4 and an inlet chamber 33 to communicate with each other; a first control valve 50 configured to adjust an opening degree of the supply passage 40; and a second control valve 45 provided on the first bleed passage 42 are provided, and the second control valve 45 includes: a spool 47 housed in a spool housing recess formed on a bleed passage and configured to open and close the first bleed passage 42, a back pressure chamber 48 formed behind the spool 47, and biasing means (compression spring 49) configured to bias the spool 47 in a direction of opening the first bleed passage 42. The back pressure chamber 48 of the second control valve 45 is selectively connected to the discharge chamber 34 or the inlet chamber 33 via the first control valve 50.

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.
