Abstract (en)

A capacity control valve includes a valve section 1 having a first or Pd-Pc valve 6, 7 and a second or Pc-Ps valve 10, 11 operating in a manner interlocked with the operation of the Pd-Pc valve. A spool valve element 11a is provided on a valve element 11 of the second or Pc-Ps valve. In a stroke region where the Pd-Pc valve is close to the fully-closed position, refrigerant passes through the clearance between the spool valve element 11a and the valve hole of the valve seat 10 of the second or Pc-Ps valve. The second or Pc-Ps valve has a characteristic such that its opening area does not change when the valve element 11 moves. This suppresses sharp changes in the pressure Pc in the crankcase, even if the solenoid current is stepwise sharply changed. <IMAGE>
