Abstract

A swash plate compressor especially suited for automotive vehicles. The inner housing may be moved in the rear housing in the front and rear direction, as the occasion may demand, for adjusting the compression capacity or performance of the compressor. A partition wall is projectingly projected at the front side of the inner housing for defining an inner or discharge chamber and an outer or suction chamber. A plurality of clamp bolts for fixedly clamping together a rear cylinder block and the rear housing are passed through said suction chamber. The rear wall of the inner housing is formed with an annular thin-walled portion lesser in thickness than the valve plate on the front surface of said inner housing. By the function of said thin-walled portion, the inner housing may be flexed readily to absorb valve plate strain.
