Claim:
1. A double-headed piston type swash plate compressor comprising: a first cylinder block and a second cylinder block that form a housing, wherein the first cylinder block includes a first cylinder bore, and the second cylinder block includes a second cylinder bore; a rotation shaft; a double-headed piston accommodated in the first cylinder bore and the second cylinder bore, wherein the double-headed piston is movable back and forth in the first cylinder bore and the second cylinder bore; a crank chamber; a drive force transmission member accommodated in the crank chamber and fixed to the rotation shaft, wherein the drive force transmission member is rotatable integrally with the rotation shaft; a swash plate accommodated in the crank chamber, wherein the swash plate is rotated when receiving drive force from the rotation shaft through the drive force transmission member, the swash plate is inclined at an angle relative to the rotation shaft that is changeable, the swash plate is coupled to the double-headed piston, and the double headed piston moves back and forth with a stroke that is in accordance with the inclination angle of the swash plate; a movable body coupled to the swash plate, wherein the movable body is capable of changing the inclination angle of the swash plate; a control pressure chamber defined by the movable body in the housing, wherein the control pressure chamber draws in control gas that changes the pressure in the control pressure chamber to move the movable body in an axial direction of the rotation shaft; and a support located on the swash plate and supported by the rotation shaft, wherein the drive force transmission member and the movable body are located at a first side of the swash plate in the axial direction of the rotation shaft, the support is located at a second side of the swash plate that is opposite from the first side in the axial direction of the rotation shaft, the swash plate is supported by the rotation shaft through the drive force transmission member, the movable body, and the support, the inclination angle of the swash plate relative to the rotation shaft is set by the drive force transmission member, the movable body, and the support, the drive force transmission member includes a main body, and two arms which project from an end face of the main body toward the swash plate, a bottom portion defining a first guide surface extends between the two arms, the swash plate includes a projection that projects from the swash plate toward the drive force transmission member, the projection is located between the two arms and slides along the first guide surface, and when the swash plate is inclined at a minimum inclination angle, at least a part of the first guide surface is arranged inside the movable body.
