A fourth pin that slides on a rotary shaft is provided to a swash plate. A guiding surface for guiding the fourth pin is provided to the rotary shaft. The fourth pin is guided by the guiding surface, the swash plate is supported by the rotary shaft via the fourth pin, and a force having a component in a direction orthogonal to the direction of movement of a movable body acting on the swash plate is thereby reduced. Accordingly, there is a reduction in the force, which has a component in a direction orthogonal to the direction of movement of the movable body, acting on a coupling section of the movable body via a third pin from the swash plate. As a result, when the inclination of the swash plate is changed, unwanted tilting of the movable body relative to the direction of movement is suppressed.

A control valve capable of reducing vibration of a housing member, and a variable-displacement compressor provided with this control valve, are provided. A control valve 300 includes: a valve unit 310 having a valve body 304 and a movable iron core 308; a housing member 312 which is formed into a bottomed tubular shape and slidably houses the movable iron core 308; and a coil unit 313 having a drive coil portion 313A housed in a solenoid housing 311 to be disposed around the housing member 312, and an end portion member 313B formed to cover a tube bottom side end portion 312e. The control valve drives and controls the valve unit 310 by an electromagnetic force thereby adjusting an opening degree of the valve body 304. A first damping member 314 is disposed between a bottom wall 312b of the housing member 312 and the end portion member 313B.

A capacity control valve capable of being downsized with the small number of parts is provided. A capacity control valve includes a valve housing provided with 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 valve element configured to be driven by a solenoid, a spring that biases the valve element in a direction opposite to a driving direction of the solenoid, and a CS valve formed by a CS valve seat 10a and the valve element and configured to open and close a communication between the control port and the suction port in accordance with a movement of the valve element. The control pressure Pc is controlled by opening and closing the CS valve.

A valve includes a valve housing provided with an inlet port and an outlet port; a valve body configured to be driven by a drive source; a spring that urges the valve body in a direction opposite a direction of driving by the drive source. A valve seat is formed at an edge of a through-flow passage. The valve body and the valve seat forms a poppet valve that controls a flow rate in accordance with a movement of the valve body. A flow passage on a downstream side of the poppet valve is provided with a reduction region where a flow passage cross-sectional area tends to decrease toward a downstream side.

A valve includes: a housing having a primary pressure space and a secondary pressure space; a valve seat disposed between the primary pressure space and the secondary pressure space; a valve body that is driven in an axial direction by a driving source to be seated on or separate from the valve seat; and a communication passage that provides communication between a back space adjacent to one of the primary pressure space and the secondary pressure space and remaining one of the primary pressure space and the secondary pressure space. A partition member is disposed between the valve housing and the valve body, and the back space and the one of the primary pressure space and the secondary pressure space are partioned off from each other in a sealed state by the partition member.

A variable displacement swash plate type compressor includes a displacement control valve. The displacement control valve includes a drive force transmitting member, a valve member having a first valve body, a pressure sensing mechanism, which adjusts the valve opening degree of the first valve body, a communication passage, which connects a back pressure chamber and an accommodating chamber to each other, and a second valve body, which selectively opens and closes the communication passage. The first valve body opens when current supply to an electromagnetic solenoid is stopped and the pressure in a suction pressure zone is less than a threshold value. The second valve body closes when current is supplied to the electromagnetic solenoid and opens when the current supply to the electromagnetic solenoid is stopped and the pressure in the suction pressure zone is greater than or equal to the threshold value.

A double-headed piston type swash plate compressor includes a swash plate, a double-headed piston, a control pressure chamber, a discharge pressure region, a suction pressure region, a supplying passage, which extends from the discharge pressure region to the control pressure chamber, a narrowing portion, which narrows an opening degree of the supplying passage, and a displacement control valve. The displacement control valve controls a pressure in the control pressure chamber. The displacement control valve includes a driving force transmission rod, a valve chamber, a guide wall, and a back pressure chamber. The back pressure chamber is in communication with the valve chamber through a clearance between the guide wall and the driving force transmission rod. The narrowing portion has a passage cross-sectional area that is larger than a passage cross-sectional area of the clearance.

A control valve according to one embodiment includes a shaft that transmits the solenoidal force to a valve element. A solenoid includes a bottomed sleeve into which the pressure of refrigerant is introduced, a core secured coaxially to the sleeve, a plunger, contained in the sleeve on its bottom side, which is displaceable integrally with the shaft in a direction of axis line, a first spring that applies the biasing force in a valve opening direction to the shaft, a second spring that applies the biasing force in a valve closing direction to the plunger, and a shaft support member, which is press-fitted such that the shaft support member is secured to an inner wall of the sleeve near its bottom portion. The second spring is set between the shaft support member and the plunger.

A control valve according to one embodiment includes a shaft that transmits the solenoidal force to a valve element. The control valve, in one example, ensures high pressure resistance at a mounting part where a control valve is mounted in a variable displacement compressor. A solenoid includes a bottomed sleeve into which the pressure of refrigerant is introduced, a core secured coaxially to the sleeve, a plunger, contained in the sleeve on its bottom side, which is displaceable integrally with the shaft in a direction of axis line, a first spring that applies the biasing force in a valve opening direction to the shaft, a second spring that applies the biasing force in a valve closing direction to the plunger, and a shaft support member, which is press-fitted such that the shaft support member is secured to an inner wall of the sleeve near its bottom portion. The second spring is set between the shaft support member and the plunger.

There is provided a valve capable of reducing valve leakage. The valve includes: a valve housing in which ports through which a fluid passes are formed; a valve body configured to be driven by a drive source; a valve seat on which a contact portion of the valve body is seated; and biasing members for biasing the valve body in a valve closing direction. The valve seat is formed of an elastic member.
