Patent ID: 6932582

Claim:
A piston type compressor comprising: a housing including a cylinder bore; a drive shaft supported by the housing; a cam plate coupled to the drive shaft, the cam plate being rotated by the rotation of the drive shaft; a piston accommodated in the cylinder bore, the piston being coupled to the cam plate, the rotation of the cam plate being converted into the reciprocating movement of the piston, in accordance with the reciprocating movement of the piston, gas being introduced into the cylinder bore, the gas being compressed and discharged from the cylinder bore, compression reactive force being generated while the gas is being compressed by the piston, the compression reactive force being transmitted from the piston to the housing through a compression reactive force transmission path, the compression reactive force transmission path further including the cam plate and the drive shaft between the piston and the housing; and a vibration damping member made of a predetermined vibration damping alloy, the vibration damping member being placed between the drive shaft and the cam plate.
