A piston compressor may prevent excessive oil from accumulating in a crank chamber while securing the supply of oil to a swash plate. In a piston compressor in which an oil separation passage is formed in a shaft and a crank chamber communicates with a suction chamber through the oil separation passage, a supply passage opens at a region of a cylinder block opposed to a swash plate to allow a working fluid introduced from a discharge chamber into the crank chamber to be supplied to the swash plate and a bypass passage allowing the crank chamber to constantly communicate with the suction chamber is provided to prevent the accumulation of excessive oil in the crank chamber regardless of the operation condition. The bypass passage communicates with the crank chamber at a region positioned in the outer side of a rotation trajectory of the swash plate in the radial direction.

An electromagnetic clutch includes a rotor, an armature plate that is disposed to face the rotor, an excitation coil that is accommodated on the inside of the rotor, and generates an attracting force attracting the armature plate onto the rotor, a temperature fuse that is disposed on the excitation coil side further than a side end surface of the rotor, and blocks the electric connection to the excitation coil when exceeding a predetermined temperature, an outer and inner magnetic blocking portion on the side end surface of the rotor, and an intermediate magnetic blocking portion in the armature plate in a position between the outer and the inner magnetic blocking portions, in which an annular groove is formed on the side end surface to include the inner magnetic blocking portion, and in which a friction member protruding from the side end surface is disposed in the annular groove.
