Patent ID: 11053929

Abstract:
Provided is a variable displacement pump which sucks and discharges a working fluid by moving a piston with a stroke in response to an inclination angle of a swash plate, the variable displacement pump including: a control piston which includes a columnar piston portion pressing the swash plate and adjusts the inclination angle of the swash plate between a maximal inclination angle in which a discharge capacity of the working fluid becomes maximal and a minimal inclination angle in which the discharge capacity of the working fluid becomes minimal; a piston accommodation portion which is formed in the housing and accommodates the piston portion; and a pressed portion which is disposed between the swash plate and the piston portion and is pressed toward the swash plate by the piston portion, in which when the inclination angle of the swash plate is an intermediate inclination angle in which the discharge capacity of the working fluid becomes an intermediate amount between the maximal amount and the minimal amount, a contact point between the piston portion and the pressed portion is located at a center portion including an axis center of the piston portion in an end surface on the side of the swash plate in the piston portion.
