A compressor which has a housing defining therein a suction chamber, a discharge chamber and a crank chamber, a drive shaft rotatably supported in the housing, a first end of which penetrates through the suction chamber and protrudes from the housing, and a second end of which is disposed in the crank chamber, a single-headed piston accommodated in a cylinder formed in the housing, and a swash plate integrally rotatably mounted on the drive shaft and coupled with the piston. The cylinder is located between the crank chamber and the first end of the drive shaft so that pressure in the crank chamber acts on the drive shaft in an opposite direction of compressive reaction force acting on the drive shaft. A shaft seal is provided on the drive shaft between the suction chamber and the first end of the drive shaft in order to seal the suction chamber.
