Abstract

A round plate shape shoe for incorporation into a swash plate type compressor as an operative engaging element intervened between a rotatable swash plate and a reciprocal piston is structured to have a first flattened face slidably contacting the swash plate and a second face opposite to the first flattened face, the second face being formed with a recess for receiving a ball bearing, which has a spherical shape portion complementary with a part of the ball bearing and a round bore portion with a bottom. The spherical shape portion of the recess is concentric with the round bore portion.
