Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1033490A2] A displacement control valve for controlling the amount of gas flowing through a bleed passage (27A, 27B) of a compressor to adjust pressure in a crank chamber (5) of the compressor. The control valve includes a housing (60), a pressure sensitive member, or diaphragm (57), which is arranged in the housing (60), and an actuator (54) extending from the diaphragm (57) and arranged in the housing (60). A valve body (51) is formed integrally with the distal end of the actuator (54). A pressure receiving body (53) is provided at the proximal end of the actuator (54). The diaphragm (57) drives the actuator (54) in accordance with a suction pressure. The pressure receiving body (53) urges the diaphragm (57) in a single direction in accordance with a discharge pressure. The diameter (or cross-sectional are) of the actuator (54) decreases in a stepped-like manner in the axial direction. This simplifies manufacture and of the actuator (54) and facilitates assembly. <IMAGE>
