Abstract: A variable displacement compressor capable of preventing delay in pressure release of a controlled pressure chamber, such as a crank chamber. A switching valve (350) disposed downstream of a control valve of a pressure supply passage includes a main valve body (352) and a sub valve body (400). The main valve body (352) includes an internal passage (352d) providing communication between a first valve hole (104e1) communicating with a pressure supply passage (145a) between the control valve and the switching valve (350), and a second valve hole (151a) communicating with a pressure supply passage (145b) between the switching valve (350) and the crank chamber. The main valve body (352) provides communication between the second valve hole (151a) and a pressure release hole (351a1) communicating with the suction chamber, when pressure Pm in the pressure supply passage (145a) is lower than pressure Pc in the crank chamber. The sub valve body (400) closes the internal passage (352d) of the main valve body (352), when pressure Pm is lower than pressure Pc. The sub valve body (400) is lighter than the main valve body (352), and thus, when pressure Pm decreases, the sub valve body (400) actuates before the main valve body (352), to close the internal passage (352d) of the main valve body (352).

Abstract: Provided is a variable displacement compressor capable of preventing intrusion of foreign matter into a second control valve. A variable displacement compressor 100 is equipped with a first control valve 300 controlling the opening degree of a supply passage 145, a check valve 350, a second control valve 400 controlling the opening degree of a discharge passage 146, and a back-pressure relief passage 147. The second control valve 400 has a back-pressure chamber 410 communicating with an intermediate supply passage 145b1, a valve chamber 420 in which a valve hole 103d and a discharge hole 431a are open and which constitutes a part of the discharge passage 146, a dividing member 430 dividing the back-pressure chamber 410 and the valve chamber 420 from each other, and a spool 440. In a state in which the first control valve 300 closes the supply passage 145 and in which a valve seat side end surface 442a of a valve portion 442 of the spool 440 is spaced away from a valve seat 103f to a maximum degree, an end wall side end surface 442b of the valve portion 442 abuts an end wall 432 of the dividing member 430, whereby communication between the valve chamber 420 and the back-pressure chamber 410 via a through-hole 432a of the end wall 432 is cut off.

Abstract: Provided is a variable displacement compressor that is directed to cost reduction and productivity enhancement of a second control valve that adjusts an opening degree of a discharge passage for discharging a refrigerant in a controlled pressure chamber to a suction chamber. The variable displacement compressor includes the second control valve (400) configured to decrease an opening degree of the discharge passage to a minimum value when a first end surface (421a) of a valve body (420) accommodated in a valve chamber (410) comes into contact with a first end wall surface (411) of the valve chamber (410) to close a second port (432) and a third port (433), and configured to increase the opening degree of the discharge passage to a maximum value when the first end surface (421a) of the valve body (420) separates from the first end wall surface (411) of the valve chamber (410) to open the second port (432) and the third port (433). The valve body (420) is supported movably in a direction perpendicular to the first end wall surface (411) without contact with a peripheral wall surface (413) of the valve chamber (410), by a guide shaft portion (415a) being slidably inserted into a receiving portion (423) formed at a radially center portion of the valve body (420).

Abstract: A spool operation failure due to foreign matter contamination is prevented. A variable displacement compressor 100 includes a first control valve 300 controlling the opening degree of a supply passage 145, a check valve 350, a second control valve 400 controlling the opening degree of a discharge passage 146, and a back-pressure relief passage 147. The second control valve 400 includes a back pressure chamber 410 communicating with an intermediate supply passage 145b1, a valve chamber 420 to which a valve hole 103d and a discharge hole 431a are open and that constitutes a part of the discharge passage 146, a partition member 430 partitioning into the back pressure chamber 410 and the valve chamber 420, and a spool 440 extending through a through hole 432a formed in the partition member 430. The spool 440 has a pressure receiving portion 441 disposed in the back pressure chamber 410, a valve portion 442 disposed in the valve chamber 420, and a shaft portion 443. The spool 440 is supported in a manner slidable in the opening and closing directions on the partition member 430 by arranging the spool valve 440a, constituted by the valve portion 442 and the shaft portion 443, to be in contact with the partition member 430.
