A capacity control valve includes a valve housing provided a discharge port through which a discharge fluid of discharge pressure Pd passes, a suction port through which a suction fluid of suction pressure Ps passes, and a control port through which a control fluid of control pressure Pc passes, a rod configured to be driven by a solenoid, a main valve formed by a main valve seat and a main valve element and configured for opening and closing a communication between the discharge port and the control port in accordance with a movement of the rod, and a CS valve provided between the control port and the suction port and controlled by a dynamic pressure of a fluid flowing from the discharge port to the control port at an opening state of the main valve.

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).

A capacity control valve includes a valve housing provided with a discharge port, suction ports, a control port allowing a control fluid of a control pressure Pc to pass therethrough and a primary valve including a primary valve seat and a primary valve body driven by a solenoid and opening and closing a communication between the discharge port and the control port by the movement of the primary valve body. The capacity control valve further includes a CS valve which includes a CS valve body, a first spring urging the CS valve body in a closing direction, and a second spring urging the CS valve body in an opening direction, the control port and the suction port being opened at a valve closed position of the primary valve body, the control port and the suction port being closed at a valve opened position of the primary valve body.

A capacity control valve includes a valve housing provided with a suction port through which a suction fluid of suction pressure passes, and a control port through which a control fluid of control pressure passes, a valve element configured to be driven by a solenoid, a spring that biases the valve element in the direction opposite to the driving direction by the solenoid, and a CS valve formed by a CS valve seat and the valve element and configured for opening and closing a communication between the control port and the suction port by movement of the valve element. The capacity control valve further includes a pressure receiving portion to which force in accordance with discharge pressure is applied in the axial direction of the valve element.

Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve that is compact and is capable of suppressing the influence of the pressure difference between the crank chamber pressure Pc, the suction pressure Ps, and the like. A valve body includes an in-valve release passage for releasing a pressure Pc in a crank chamber to a suction chamber of a compressor via a Ps inlet/outlet port. A sub valve element adapted to open or close the in-valve release passage along with movement of the plunger is provided.

A suction damping device for a variable displacement compressor includes a rotor rotatably received within a stator disposed in a suction port of the variable displacement compressor. The rotor includes an aperture and the stator includes a pair of opposing openings in selective fluid communication with the aperture of the rotor. An electromagnetic device controls a rotational position of the rotor relative to the stator based on a condition of an electrically controlled valve used to control an angle of inclination of a swashplate of the variable displacement compressor. A changing of the rotational position of the rotor relative to the stator causes a variable overlap to be formed between the aperture of the rotor and the openings of the stator to control a flow of a refrigerant through the suction damping device.

A piston compressor may prevent excessive oil from accumulating in a crank chamber while securing the supply of oil to a swash plate. In a piston compressor in which an oil separation passage is formed in a shaft and a crank chamber communicates with a suction chamber through the oil separation passage, a supply passage opens at a region of a cylinder block opposed to a swash plate to allow a working fluid introduced from a discharge chamber into the crank chamber to be supplied to the swash plate and a bypass passage allowing the crank chamber to constantly communicate with the suction chamber is provided to prevent the accumulation of excessive oil in the crank chamber regardless of the operation condition. The bypass passage communicates with the crank chamber at a region positioned in the outer side of a rotation trajectory of the swash plate in the radial direction.

A displacement control valve is provided for discharging liquid refrigerant in a control chamber at startup and achieves a reduction in startup time and an improvement in operating efficiency during control of a variable displacement compressor simultaneously. The opening area between communicating holes in a third valve section and a third valve seat surface in a control area to control the flow rate or pressure in a working control chamber is set smaller than the area of auxiliary communicating passages.

A capacity control valve includes a valve housing formed with a discharge port, a suction port, and first and second control ports, a rod movably arranged in the valve housing and driven by a solenoid, a CS valve configured to control a fluid flow between the first control port and the suction port in accordance with a movement of the rod, and a DC valve configured to control a fluid flow between the second control port and the discharge port in accordance with the movement of the rod. In a non-energization state, the CS valve is closed and the DC valve is closed. As the energization of the solenoid becomes larger, the CS valve transitions from a closed state to an open state and the DC valve transitions from a closed state to an open state.

A compressor includes a cylinder housing having a number of pistons, a control chamber communicating with piston casings, a suction chamber and a discharge chamber communicating with the piston casings, a control valve includes a receptacle engaged in the cylinder housing, a valve member engaged in the receptacle for controlling the pressurized air to flow from the discharge chamber into the control chamber of the cylinder housing, and a valve element for controlling a bypass of the pressurized air through the receptacle. A bellow device is connected to actuate the sliding member internally, and a sliding member is slidably engaged in the control space of the receptacle, and to operate the valve element externally with a solenoid device.
