- the wobble plate is attached to the guide rod so as to slide along the guide rod.
- the rotor is rotated by the rotation of the driving shaft.
- the slant plate is connected to the rotor through the hinge mechanism, the slant plate is rotated in accordance with the rotation of the rotor.
- the wobble plate wobbles or oscillates inasmuch as the wobble plate is slidably attached to the guide rod as described above.
- the piston members are reciprocated in the cylinder portions, respectively.
- the compressor housing has a suction chamber and a discharge chamber each of which communicates with the cylinder portions.
- refrigerant is taken from the suction chamber to cylinder portions to be compressed into a compressed refrigerant which is discharged as a discharged gas to the discharge chamber.
- the slant plate has the variable slant angle as described above, it is possible to make the stroke of each piston member vary under control of the variable slant angle.

- the valve body 291 opens the first communication path 28.
- the first communication path 28 is opened by the valve body 291, an amount of the discharged gas flows from the discharge chamber 24 to the crank chamber 13 through the first communication path 28.

- the plunger 297 has a spring 296.
- the plunger 297 is pushed upwardly by the spring force of the spring 296.
- an electric power is supplied to the electromagnetic coil 294, an electromagnetic force is generated around the plunger 297.
