Abstract
A variable displacement pump includes an urging mechanism to urge a cam ring in an eccentric direction and to increase the urging force when an eccentricity is decreased, a first control chamber to apply a force to the cam ring in a direction decreasing the eccentricity, and a second control chamber to apply a force, to the cam ring, in a direction increasing the eccentricity. The variable displacement pump further includes a thermosensitive mechanism to control the supply and drain of a discharge pressure supplied into the second control chamber, and a control valve to be operated by the discharge pressure and to decrease the pressure in the second control chamber when the discharge pressure increases.
