Abstract
A variable displacement swash plate type compressor includes a rotary shaft, a swash plate, and an actuator. The actuator includes a partition body, a movable body, and a coupling member located radially outward of the rotary shaft of the swash plate. The movable body has a guide surface for changing the inclination angle of the swash plate and a sliding portion that slides on the rotary shaft or the partition body. When viewed in a direction that is perpendicular to a direction in which the rotational axis of the rotary shaft extends and perpendicular to a first direction, the guide surface has a curved shape that is configured such that a normal of the guide surface and the rotational axis of the rotary shaft intersect in a zone surrounded by the sliding portion in the entire range of change in the inclination angle.
