Abstract
A reciprocating type compressor such as a swash plate type compressor includes single headed pistons movably arranged in the cylinder bores formed in the cylinder block. The cylinder block has an extension wall laterally extending therefrom to form a first muffling chamber and the cylinder head has an extension wall laterally extending therefrom to form a second muffling chamber. A valve plate or a gasket has an extension seal portion integrally formed therewith and arranged between the extension walls of the cylinder block and the cylinder head to seal the end rims around the end openings of the first and second muffling chambers together.
