Abstract (en)

A slide valve type screw compresser having a slide valve (31) with a surface of chevron shape in section consisting of a couple of arcuately curved surfaces forming part of the inner wall surfaces of a rotor chamber (8) accommodating a pair of intermeshed male and female screws (6, 5) the slide valve (31) being slidable in the axial direction of the rotors for comminicating the rotor chamber with a suction port (11) through an opening with an adjustably variable area for volumetric control of the compressor, characterized in that: the slide valve (31) is retractably protruded into a suction casing at a fore end on the side of the suction port and has the opposite outer corner portions of the curved surfaces cut off at a predetermined angle with the longitudinal axis thereof to provide a substantially triangular section with a forwardly reduced width at the protruded fore end.
