Swash-plate type compressor having an improved lubricant oil feeding arrangement

摘要

In a swash-plate type compressor, a refrigerant gas deflecting wall is formed in a suction passageway extending through the cylinder block and the valve plates, the deflecting wall extending substantially at right angles to the direction of flow of refrigerant gas travelling in the suction passageway. The suction passageway is partitioned from the swash plate chamber by a partition wall which has an axially extending portion formed with an opening. The refrigerant gas flowing in an upstream portion of the suction passageway is deflected by the refrigerant gas deflecting wall into the swash plate chamber through the above opening to have lubricant oil separated therefrom, and then is delivered into a downstream portion of the suction passageway through the same opening.
