Abstract
A swash plate type compressor comprises a case; a drive shaft rotatably installed in the case; a drive plate fixed to the drive shaft to rotate therewith; a sleeve axially slidably disposed on the drive shaft; a journal pivotally mounted on the sleeve; a swash plate disposed on the journal to move therewith; and a transmission/hinge mechanism arranged between the drive plate and the journal to transmit the rotation of the drive shaft to the journal permitting the pivotal movement of the journal relative to said sleeve. The transmission/hinge mechanism includes a first arm projected from the drive plate and having an elongate through hole; two spaced second arms projected from the journal, the second arms being so spaced as to intimately put therebetween the first arm, the second arms having cylindrical bores which are aligned; and a pin including a middle portion slidably received in the elongate through hole and axially opposed end portions press-fitted in the cylindrical bores of the second arms. The press-fitting of the pin with the cylindrical bore of a leading one of the second arms is stronger in strength than that with the cylindrical bore of a trailing one of the second arms.
