Abstract
A variable capacity wobble plate type compressor with a lubricator for oil-lubricating wobble plate bearings in a crankcase interior, which has an oil dam formed in an entrance of the central bore of a drive plate rotatably mounted on a compressor drive shaft for catching and preserving a lubricating oil scattered by a non-rotary wobble plate during wobbling in the crankcase interior and an oil supply conduit for supplying the preserved oil in the oil dam to the thrust and radial bearings by which the wobble plate is supported on the drive plate.
