A variable displacement compressor having means for regulating the minimum inclination angle of a swash plate, a spring urging the swash plate in the inclination angle-increasing direction, and a spring urging the swash plate in the inclination angle-decreasing direction. The swash plate inclination angle is &thetas;a as the sum of the urging forces of both springs is zero, when the drive shaft is not rotated; and, when the drive shaft is rotated, its inclination angle is &thetas;b at which the sum of moments MS, MF is zero. Moment MS of rotational motion is based on selling the product of inertia in the variable-angle direction of the swash plate to decrease the inclination angle of the swash plate from &thetas;a. Moment MF is based on the combined urging force of both springs set so that the inclination angle &thetas;b is positioned at a minimum angle at maximum rotational speed. |
