A double-headed piston type swash plate compressor includes a rotation shaft, a housing, a swash plate, two cylinder bores, a double-headed piston, and two shoes. The double-headed piston includes two shoe holders, a neck, two heads, and two coupling portions. Each of the coupling portions includes an outer portion and an inner portion. A direction orthogonal to both of an opposing direction of the inner portion and the outer portion and the axial direction of the double-headed piston is referred to as a widthwise direction. The neck is larger in the widthwise direction than in the opposing direction so that the neck is deformable in the opposing direction. Each of the two coupling portions has a width that is less than or equal to a width of the neck. The inner portion includes a narrow portion. The narrow portion is at least partially located closer to the head than the shoe holder in the inner portion. The two coupling portions are deformable in the widthwise direction when the swash plate applies load to the double-headed piston.

A pump or compressor includes a rotating shaft, and at least a first piston rod substantially perpendicular to the rotating shaft and connecting a first pair of pistons at opposite ends of the piston rod. The piston rod moves back and forth relative to the rotating shaft. The compressor additionally includes a circular eccentric, and a circular ring connected to the circular eccentric via a bearing. A drive pin engages the circular ring at a fixed position on the circular ring and engages the at least a first piston rod. When rotational motion of the shaft rotates either the first piston rod and first pair of pistons or the circular eccentric, the drive pin and the first piston rod move back and forth relative to the rotating shaft.

A turn-back coaxial gas pressurizing pump and gas pressurizing method using the same, relate to the field of gas pressure boosting. The turn-back coaxial gas pressurizing pump includes a primary cylinder, a primary piston, a secondary cylinder serving as a rod of the primary piston, a pressure bar, an air pump bonnet, a secondary piston and a piston rod. The primary cylinder, the secondary cylinder and the piston rod are arranged coaxially. A rear end of the piston rod extends through a first non-returning adaptive valve provided in the primary piston and is fixed on the bottom wall of the primary cylinder. As a result, the two pistons move in opposite directions to boost the pressure.

A reciprocating piston machine includes a first cylinder and a first piston assigned to the first cylinder and a second piston assigned to the first cylinder or a second cylinder.
