Abstract (en)

A displacement control valve adjusts the pressure in a crank chamber (5) of a compressor to vary the displacement of the compressor. The control valve has a first valve mechanism (60), a second valve mechanism (70) and a solenoid mechanism (80). The solenoid mechanism (80) independently actuates the first and second valve mechanisms (60, 70). The first valve mechanism (60) selectively opens and closes a supply passage (28) of the compressor. The second valve mechanism (70) adjusts the flow rate of gas through a bleed passage (27) of the compressor. The second valve mechanism (70) includes a second valve opening (72), a second valve element (73), a bellows (76) and a second plunger (83). The second valve element (73) and the bellows (76) are accommodated in a single pressure chamber (71). The pressure of a suction chamber is introduced to the pressure chamber (71). The control valve has a relatively simple structure and is thus inexpensive and compact. <IMAGE>
