Abstract
A compressor is disclosed, in particular for air-conditioning systems in vehicles, having at least one piston movable in a cylinder, a drive shaft and a wobble plate arrangement between the piston and the drive shaft. To improve the efficiency and to reduce leaks, the wobble plate arrangement comprises a swash plate, on which a wobble plate is rotatably mounted. Between the wobble plate and the piston is arranged a bearing which allows movement of the wobble plate relative to the piston in the circumferential direction.
