Abstract
A variable displacement type refrigerant compressor including a compressor housing having internally a compressing mechanism for compressing a refrigerant, a displacement varying mechanism for adjustably varying an amount of the refrigerant compressed and discharged by the compressing mechanism, and a displacement control valve unit controlling the operation of the displacement varying mechanism, which is an assembly of a pressure sensing mechanism formed by a flanged bellows element, a valve element, a valve seat having a port cooperating with the valve element, and a valve rod engaging the pressure sensing mechanism with the valve element, and are assembled by using a fixing screw member and a jig tool in position in a pressure sensing chamber, a valve chamber, and a valve rod bore coaxially formed in the compressor housing by drilling or boring from two sides of the compressor housing. The flanged bellows element of the displacement control valve unit is fixed in the pressure sensing chamber via the flange thereof by being threadedly engaged in the pressure sensing chamber.
