ABSTRACT:
A swash plate type compressor is provided having multiple cylinder bores in opposed cylinder blocks with heads, and a piston slidably mounted in each pair of opposed cylinder bores for compressing refrigerant gas. A drive or swash plate provides reciprocal movement of the piston in response to a rotary drive shaft. Thrust bearing assemblies each including a pair of Belleville spring washers are provided on opposite sides of the drive plate. A plurality of rollers held by a cage are positioned in between the washers. When compressed during assembly of the compressor by tightening the through bolts, the washers are flattened so as to extend in a plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of the shaft and provide an axial preload force to compensate for tolerance clearance and wear, and to absorb axial shock loading. A resilient O-ring is mounted on the shaft between one of the washers and the adjacent drive plate to dampen vibration.
