- burning between the swash plate 19 and an iron-based shoe 23 a is inhibited.
- the weight of the swash plate 19 is limited.
- the swash plate guide 21 is provided with a through hole 21 a , and the drive shaft 16 passes through the through hole 21 a .
- a hinge mechanism 22 is located between the lug plate 17 and the swash plate 19 . Therefore, the swash plate 19 rotates in synchronization with the lug plate 17 and the drive shaft 16 , and the swash plate 19 can incline with respect to the drive shaft 16 while sliding on the drive shaft 16 in the axial direction.
- the swash plate 21 includes a counterweight 21 b at a location that is opposite to the hinge mechanism 22 with respect to the drive shaft 16 .
- a spring 16 a is fitted around the drive shaft 16 .
- the spring 16 a urges the swash plate 19 toward the cylinder block 11 , that is, in the direction in which the inclination angle decreases.

- the volume of the compressor 11 b varies depending on the position of the corresponding piston 23 .
- Each piston 23 is connected to the periphery of the swash plate 19 through a pair of the shoes 23 a . Accordingly, the rotational motion of the swash plate 19 , which is produced by the rotation of the drive shaft 16 , is converted to reciprocating motion of the pistons 23 .

- the power transmission mechanism 24 may be a clutchless (for example, the combination of a belt and a pulley).
- the present embodiment has a clutchless type power transmission mechanism 24 .
- a suction port 28 , a suction valve 29 , which opens and closes the suction port 28 , a discharge port 30 , and a discharge valve 31 , which opens and closes the discharge port 30 are formed in correspondence with each cylinder bore 11 a .

- a control valve 35 is installed on the way of the supply passage 33 .
- the control valve 35 is similar to the control valve disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Hei 9-268973, and includes a bellows, which moves in response to changes in the suction pressure, a solenoid, which produces electromagnetic force, and a valve mechanism, which controls the degree of opening of the supply passage 33 according to the displacement of the bellows and the electromagnetic force of the solenoid.
- the parts of the control valve 35 are not shown.
- the bellows are displaced so that the supply passage 33 is opened, and when the pressure in the suction chamber 26 is a predetermined value or more, the supply passage 33 is held in a closed state.
- the discharge displacement of the compressor is adjusted by controlling the pressure (crank pressure) Pc in the crank chamber with the control valve 35 . That is, when the pressure in the suction chamber 26 is relatively low, the degree of opening of the control valve 35 is increased so that the crank pressure Pc is increased.
- the inclination angle (angle formed by a plane perpendicular to the drive shaft 16 and the swash plate 19 ) of the swash plate 19 is decreased so that the stroke of each piston 23 is decreased and the discharge displacement is reduced.
- the degree of opening of the control valve 35 is decreased so that the crank pressure Pc is lowered. Accordingly, the inclination angle of the swash plate 19 is increased so that the stroke of each piston 23 is increased and the discharge displacement is increased.
- the hinge mechanism 22 has two supporting arms 36 (only one is shown), which extend from a rear surface of the lug plate 17 , a guide hole 37 formed in each of the supporting arms 36 , and two guide pins 38 , which are fixed to the swash plate 19 .

- the spherical portions 38 b engage the guide holes 37 .
- Each spherical portion 38 b has a larger outer diameter than the shaft portion 38 a , and the distal end of each spherical portion 38 b is truncated along a plane. At least a portion of each spherical portion 38 b is hollow.
- Each guide pin 38 is forged by use of, for example, a header or a former.
- a hollow chamber 38 c in each guide pin 38 is opened at the distal end of the spherical portion 38 b .
- the shape of the hollow chamber 38 c can be appropriately selected. For example, any one of many shapes such as a first shape, in which the hollow chamber 38 c extends to approximately the center of the spherical portion 38 b as shown in FIG. 2( a ), a second shape, in which the hollow chamber 38 c extends to the shaft portion 38 a as shown in FIG. 2( b ), and a third shape, in which the hollow chamber 38 c extends to the vicinity of the location where the shaft portion 38 a joins with the swash plate guide 21 as shown in FIG. 2( c ), can be selected.

A z-axis is perpendicular to the plane of the sheet of FIG. 3( a ) and is parallel to the vibration axis S. An x-axis is perpendicular to both the y and z axes.
- a point of intersection the x, y and z axes is defined as an origin point O.
- the degree of opening of the control valve 35 is adjusted according to the cooling load.
- the opening degree of the control valve 35 is reduced, and the pressure (crank pressure Pc) in the crank chamber 15 is decreased as a result, which increases the inclination angle of the swash plate 19 .
- the stroke of each piston 23 is increased accordingly, and the compressor 10 operates with a large displacement.
- the opening degree of the control valve 35 is increased and the pressure (crank pressure Pc) in the crank chamber 15 is increased so that the inclination angle of the swash plate 19 is decreased.
- the stroke of the piston 23 is decreased, and the compressor 10 operates with a small displacement.
- the moment that is generated by rotation of the swash plate 19 (the moment due to centrifugal force) is the product of inertia Ixy of the swash plate 19 with respect to the xz plane and the yz plane in the right-angled coordinate system (x, y, z) multiplied by the square of the angular velocity ⁇ of the drive shaft 16 .
- y axis coincides with the axis of the drive shaft 16
- the z axis is parallel to the vibration shaft S
- the x axis is perpendicular to the y axis and the z axis.
- the distance L is increased by about 20%, as shown in FIG. 3( a ), as compared with the swash plate 19 shown in FIG. 3( b ), which is an entirely iron-based swash plate.
- the product of inertia Ixy of the swash plate 19 of FIG. 3( a ) is significantly increased compared with the swash plate 19 of FIG. 3( b ).
- the hollow chambers 38 c are formed so that the masses of the front spherical portions 38 b of the guide pins 38 are decreased, even if the mass of the guide pins 38 are the same, the product of inertia Ixy is smaller than that of a swash plate lacking the hollow chambers 38 c . Further, the moment M based on the rotation of the swash plate 19 is smaller than the moment Mo of a conventional swash plate, as shown in FIG. 4. Thus, the crank pressure Pc necessary for changing the inclination angle of the swash plate 19 is reduced.
- This embodiment has the following effects.
- At least a part of the guide pin 38 is hollow.
- the product of inertia of a portion of the guide pin 38 that influences the rotational moment rotation of the drive shaft 16 and the swash plate 19 is decreased.
- the crank pressure Pc that is necessary for changing the displacement of a compressor can be reduced at a high rotation speeds, and hunting can be inhibitted.
- the crank pressure Pc that is necessary for changing the displacement of a compressor can be reduced at a high rotation speeds, and hunting can be inhibitted.
- the crank pressure Pc that is necessary for changing the displacement of a compressor can be reduced at a high rotation speeds, and hunting can be inhibitted.

- the power of engine is transferred to the compressor.
- the inclination angle of the swash plate 19 approaches zero degree so that power dissipation can be decreased.
- a check valve is provided downstream of the discharge port of the compressor, the valve
- the hollow chamber 38 c is opened at the distal end.
- the product of inertia Ixy can be easily changed.
- machining of the hollow chamber 38 c is relatively simple.
- the guide pin is formed by forging. Therefore, the guide pin is stronger than a pin in which the hollow chamber 38 c of the guide pin 38 is formed by a cutting operation. In addition, if the guide pin is manufactured by a header or a former, productivity is higher.
- the swash plate 19 is made of an aluminum based metallic swash plate body 20 and an iron based metallic swash plate guide 21 . Therefore, the entire swash plate 19 is lighter than an iron-based swash plate 19 .
- the swash plate 19 is directly supported on the drive shaft 16 by the wall of the through hole 21 a .
- the number of parts is low.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.
- the hinge mechanism 22 is different from that of the first embodiment.
- the second embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment. Therefore, parts that are the same are denoted by the same reference numerals, and only the differences will be explained.
- a sleeve 39 is fitted on the drive shaft 16 and is permitted to slide on the drive shaft 16 .
- a swash plate guide 21 is pivotally supported by a pair of supporting shafts 40 (only one shown) to the sleeve 39 .
- the supporting shafts 40 extend perpendicular to the drive shaft 16 .
- the hinge mechanism 22 includes two swing arms 41 that extend from the swash plate guide 21 toward the lug plate 17 .
- a supporting arm 42 extends from on the lug plate 17 , and a guide pin 43 connects the swing arms 41 to the supporting arm 42 .
- the swing arms 41 surrounds the supporting arm 42 as shown in FIG. 6.
- a guide hole 44 is formed in the supporting arm 42 .
- Each of the swing arms 41 has a mounting hole 45 , the axes of which are parallel to the supporting shaft 40 .
- the guide pin 43 is press fitted into the mounting holes 45 and fitted into the guide hole 44 .
- the guide hole 44 is elongated so that, even if the inclination angle of the swash plate is changed, the top dead center position, of the pistons 23 do not substantially change. That is, the guide hole 44 extends so that the closer the guide hole 44 is to the swash plate 19 , the further it is from the drive shaft 16 .
- the guide pin 43 is a hollow cylinder.
- this embodiment has the following effects in addition to the effects (1) to (7) described in the first embodiment.
- the guide pin 43 which is part of the hinge mechanism 22 , moves along the guide hole 44 , and the sliding motion and inclination of the swash plate 19 are guided. Therefore, the guide pin 43 can have a simple linear shape, which further simplifies manufacturing.
- the guide hole 44 is formed in the supporting arm 42 , and mounting holes 45 are formed in the swing arms 41 . Therefore, the structure of the swash plate 19 is simple as compared to a swash plate where the guide hole 44 is formed in the swing arm 41 .
- the second embodiment is not limited to the structure described above, and may be constructed as follows for example.
- the hollow chamber 38 c of the guide pin 38 may be formed in the shaft 38 a of the guide pin 38 , as shown in FIGS. 7 ( a ) and 7 ( b ).
- a hollow chamber 38 c may be formed in the guide pin 38 and a slit 38 d may be formed in the shaft portion 38 a , as shown in FIG. 7( c ).
- the outer diameter tolerance of the shaft portion 38 a may be increased.
- the guide pin 43 may be formed such that a partition is formed in the hollow portion 43 a as shown in FIG. 8( a ).
- the ends of the pin 43 may be formed by solid bodies, as shown in FIG. 8( b ), instead of the simple pipe shape of FIG. 5. The force on the guide pin 43 acts strongly on the ends of the guide pin 43 . However, when the ends of the guide pin 43 are solid, the strength of the guide pin 43 is improved.
- the swash plate 19 may be pivotally connected to a sleeve 39 that is fitted on the drive shaft 16 , as in the second embodiment, through the supporting shafts 40 .
- the swash plate 19 may be supported on the drive shaft 16 as in the first embodiment.
- a spherical sleeve may be fitted on the drive shaft 16 , and the swash plate 19 may be pivotally supported on the outer surface of the spherical sleeve.
- the hinge mechanisms of FIG. 1 and 6 have two joints. That is, two pins 38 couple with two holes 37 in FIG. 1, and two arms 41 form joints in FIG. 6. Alternatively, each hinge may have just one joint. However, two sets are preferable from the viewpoints of rotational balance and stability in the driving power transmission.
- the swash plate 19 may be made of only one kind of metal, such as an iron based metal or the like. In this case, a press-fit margin is not needed, and the distance between the guide pin 38 and the xz plane can be decreased. Accordingly, the product of inertia Ixy can be further decreased by forming the guide pin 38 in a hollow shape.
- a surface treatment for example, aluminum spray coating
- the guide hole 44 may be formed in the swing arm 41
- the mounting holes 45 may be formed in the supporting arm 42 .
- the guide pin 38 may be manufactured by cutting or casting.
- the present invention may be applied to a wobble type variable displacement compressor.
