Swash plate type compressor

摘要

A compressor has a refrigerant gas passage selectively connected to and disconnected from a refrigerant circuit apart from the compressor. A swash plate is supported on a drive shaft for integral rotation with inclining motion with respect to the drive shaft to drive the pistons. The swash plate is moveable between a maximum inclined angle and a minimum inclining angle. A disconnecting member disconnects the refrigerant circuit from the refrigerant gas passage when the swash plate is at the minimum inclined angle.
