Abstract
A fluid pressure rotary machine includes a cylinder block that is fixed to a rotary shaft and includes a plurality of cylinder bores, a piston disposed to be free to slide in each cylinder bore such that a volume chamber is defined thereby, a swash plate that causes the piston to reciprocate such that the volume chamber expands and contracts, and a valve plate that slides against the cylinder block and includes an intake port and a discharge port communicating with the volume chamber. The valve plate includes a sliding surface formed to project in a spherical shape against the cylinder block. The cylinder block includes a sliding surface formed as an indentation corresponding to the shape of the sliding surface of the valve plate. A minute gap is formed between the sliding surface of the valve plate and the sliding surface of the cylinder block in an outer edge position.
