Swash plate compressor in which a swash plate has a sliding surface non-parallel to a reference surface thereof

摘要

A swash plate compressor is for carrying out a compressing operation by converting a rotational force of a swash plate into a reciprocating motion of a piston via a sliding member which is held to the piston. The swash plate extends along a reference plane and has a sliding surface which faces on the sliding member with rotation of the swash plate. The sliding surface is non-parallel to the reference plane. The sliding surface may have a conical shape or a curved surface shape.
