First closing plate and second closing plate close opening portions at both ends of cylindrical member in an axial direction. Base is housed in a space formed by cylindrical member, first closing plate, and second closing plate, and rotates around an axis in the same direction as the axial direction of cylindrical member. Resin layers are formed on thrust surfaces of base. Groove C is a plurality of concentric circular grooves or a spiral groove formed on each resin layer, and the center of circles of the circular grooves or the center of a spiral of the spiral groove is different from the rotation center of base.

A method is provided for forming wear-resistant layer on the surface of cylinder bores a cylinder drum of a hydrostatic axial piston machine within which a respective piston is moved in a manner subject to intensive wear. The cylinder bores are gas nitrocarburized in two stages to minimize the wear and include a thin uniform connecting layer that has a thickness of 4 to 16 μm and a comparatively thick underlying diffusion layer.

A scroll compressor is provided that may include a first scroll, a second scroll that defines a plurality of compression chambers together with the first scroll, the second scroll having a discharge hole that communicates with a compression chamber among the plurality of compression chambers, a back pressure plate that defines a back pressure chamber to accommodate a refrigerant discharged from the discharge hole, a floating plate to define the back pressure chamber, and a sealing member to prevent the refrigerant from flowing between a first surface, which may be a sliding surface of the floating plate, and a second surface, which may face the first surface, of the back pressure plate. The sealing member may include a seal cover that contacts the other one of the first and second surfaces, and a seal, a portion of which may be accommodated in the seal cover. The seal cover may have a friction coefficient less than a friction coefficient of the seal.

A composition for sliding member includes a binder resin, a solid lubricant, and an epoxy modified silicone oil having an epoxy group at both ends or at one end thereof. A weight ratio of the binder resin and the epoxy modified silicone oil is 97:3 to 75:25.

The present invention provides a method for producing a durable semispherical shoe which can be prevented from being subjected to seizure even in a dry lubrication state in which there is no lubricating oil at a start time of an operation of a swash plate compressor, can be restrained from deteriorating in its lubricating property due to generated frictional heat, and can be restrained from deteriorating in its strength at a production time and an injection molding die. A semispherical shoe (4), for a swash plate compressor, to be produced by the production method has a base material (5), consisting of a hard material, which has a hollow part along a central axis thereof and a resin layer, consisting of a resin composition, which is formed on a surface of a planar part, disposed on a periphery of the base member, which is to be subjected to sliding contact with the swash plate and on a surface of a spherical part, disposed on the periphery thereof, which is to be subjected to sliding contact with a piston. A resin-filled portion (8) where the resin composition is filled and an empty portion where the resin composition is not filled are formed in the hollow part of the base material. The resin-filled portion (8) and the resin layer are formed by injecting and filling the resin composition into a portion to be formed as the resin-filled portion (8) with the base material (5) being disposed inside a cavity (22) of the injection molding die.

A light-weight, high-strength compressor component having at least one fluid delivery feature that is formed via additive manufacturing is provided. The component may have at least one interior region comprising a lattice structure that comprises a plurality of repeating cells. A solid surface is disposed over the lattice structure. The interior region comprising the lattice structure has at least one fluid delivery feature for permitting fluid flow through the body portion of the light-weight, high-strength compressor component. The fluid delivery feature may be a flow channel, a fluid delivery port, a porous fluid delivery feature, or the like that serves to transfer fluids through the component, such as refrigerant and/or lubricant oils. Methods of making such compressor components via additive manufacturing processes are also provided.

A rotary vane pump including a housing, and a motor. The motor includes a shaft which is coupled to a rotor. The rotor defines a plurality of slots. A plurality of free moving vanes are disposed within the slots. In one example, the rotor is formed from a first material and the plurality of vanes are formed from the first material and impregnated with a second material. The first material can be a carbon material. The second material can be a resin material, an antimony material, a copper material, or a silver material.
