Abstract
Abstract Two cylinder blocks of a swash plate compressor are so shaped as to form a chamber between the cylinder block assembly, a shell and a head cover of the compressor near the junction of said two cylinder blocks. The chamber thus formed is communicated with the discharge ends of respective cylinder bores through high pressure passageways having a cross-sectional area smaller than that of said chamber. A pipe having a large number of apertures perforated through the wall thereof is disposed at that end of the high pressure passageway which is open in said chamber.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
137 words
In a swash plate compressor of the type wherein a swash plate is fixedly mounted on a drive shaft and a plurality of pistons in engagement with said swash plate are slidably received in respective cylinder bores formed in a cylinder block in concentrical relation to the axis thereof whereby said pistons are caused to make a reciprocatory movement in the respective cylinder bores incident to rotation of the drive shaft, said cylinder block being fitted in a shell and a head cover, a silencing chamber being formed between said shell and head cover, said silencing chamber being communicaTed with the discharge ends of the respective cylinder bores through high pressure passageways and also with a discharge port of the compressor, and said high pressure passageway being communicated with said silencing chamber through a plurality of apertures.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
