Abstract
A swash plate type compressor, having a swash plate fixedly and slantingly secured to a drive shaft and also secured to pistons in such a manner that the pistons reciprocate as the swash plate rotates, has piston webs which have a sliding outer surface and a relief inner surface. A clearance exists between a circumferential surface of the swash plate and the relief surface which creates a wedge effect which, in turn, produces a lubricating film pressure that substantially reduces wear between the circumferential surface of the swash plate and the sliding surface.
