A compressor includes a cylinder housing having a number of pistons, a control chamber communicating with piston casings, a suction chamber and a discharge chamber communicating with the piston casings, a control valve includes a receptacle engaged in the cylinder housing, a valve member engaged in the receptacle for controlling the pressurized air to flow from the discharge chamber into the control chamber of the cylinder housing, and a valve element for controlling a bypass of the pressurized air through the receptacle. A bellow device is connected to actuate the sliding member internally, and a sliding member is slidably engaged in the control space of the receptacle, and to operate the valve element externally with a solenoid device.

A capacity control valve includes a main valve that opens and closes communication between a discharge port and a control port formed in a valve housing by movement of a rod driven by a solenoid, a CS communication passage providing communication between a control fluid supply chamber formed in the valve housing and a suction port, and an on-off valve formed by a communication passage forming member having an annular valve seat in an outer periphery of the CS communication passage and an on-off valve element biased in the valve closing direction with respect to the valve seat.

A denting device for forming a predetermined pattern on a surface near a discharge hole and an intake hole of a valve plate for a compressor includes: a seating jig to which the valve plate is fixed; a processing pin in which a pressing part for pressing the valve plate is formed at a distal end thereof; and a moving unit which is disposed on an upper portion of the seating jig, horizontally moves the processing pin at a constant speed while allowing the processing pin to vertically reciprocate at a constant speed, so as to form the pattern on the valve plate.

According to the present invention, there is provided a compressor including: a piston reciprocated in a cylinder; a valve seat plate provided with a port through which a fluid passes along with the reciprocation of the piston; a valve provided in the valve seat plate to open/close the port; a valve receiver regulating the degree of opening of the valve; and a stress suppression member provided between the valve and the valve receiver, wherein the stress suppression member includes a valve exposing portion exposing the valve.

A displacement control valve includes a valve housing, a valve element fitted in a guide passage of the valve housing, and a solenoid for driving the valve element to open and close it, a tapered portion is provided at one of an outer peripheral surface of the valve element and a guide surface of the guide passage, and a spiral groove is provided in the other, wherein the tapered portion is set such that a gap between the valve element and the guide passage is larger toward the low-pressure side than on the high-pressure side, and the tapered portion and the spiral groove are provided such that a starting point of the tapered portion is located within the region of the spiral groove in the entire range between the starting point and the ending point of the stroke of the valve element.

A piston type compressor has a main housing including a cylinder housing. The cylinder housing has a central bore for receiving a shaft therein through a first surface thereof and a plurality of bores configured for receiving a plurality of pistons therein through the first surface thereof. An inlet is configured for conveying a primary fluid to the plurality of bores. An outlet is configured for conveying the primary fluid from the plurality of bores. A plurality of passages is separate from the inlet and the outlet. Each of the plurality of passages is formed in the main housing and is configured for conveying a supplemental fluid to one of the plurality of bores.

A spool operation failure due to foreign matter contamination is prevented. A variable displacement compressor 100 includes a first control valve 300 controlling the opening degree of a supply passage 145, a check valve 350, a second control valve 400 controlling the opening degree of a discharge passage 146, and a back-pressure relief passage 147. The second control valve 400 includes a back pressure chamber 410 communicating with an intermediate supply passage 145b1, a valve chamber 420 to which a valve hole 103d and a discharge hole 431a are open and that constitutes a part of the discharge passage 146, a partition member 430 partitioning into the back pressure chamber 410 and the valve chamber 420, and a spool 440 extending through a through hole 432a formed in the partition member 430. The spool 440 has a pressure receiving portion 441 disposed in the back pressure chamber 410, a valve portion 442 disposed in the valve chamber 420, and a shaft portion 443. The spool 440 is supported in a manner slidable in the opening and closing directions on the partition member 430 by arranging the spool valve 440a, constituted by the valve portion 442 and the shaft portion 443, to be in contact with the partition member 430.

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 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.
