A motor and pumping system which provides for high volume, low pressure, low cost, and ease of assembly as a breathing air supply such as for a submerged diver. The integration of the necessary elements gives rise to a unique ability to eliminate costly and complex motor bearings and simplify the motor design by reducing number of magnetic poles and electrical control elements which would traditionally be required to control the multiple poles of an electromechanical machine.

The patent application discloses an air compressor. The air compressor comprises a pair of pistons, a motor, a flywheel, a pulley, a crankshaft. Each piston is reciprocable in a corresponding one of the cylinders so as to reciprocate along the axis of the corresponding cylinder to vary a working volume of the cylinder. The motor comprise an output shaft. The pully transmits torque from said output shaft to said flywheel so as to rotate said flywheel about said axis upon rotation of said output shaft. The crankshaft interconnects said flywheel with said piston so as to reciprocate said piston in said cylinder upon rotation of said flywheel. The diameter of the pulley is smaller than that of said flywheel.

A reciprocating compressor includes: a cylinder forming a cylinder chamber; an intake valve disposed around the cylinder chamber; a movable part including either an intake valve seat configured to seat the intake valve or a back member located on an opposite side of the intake valve from the intake valve seat, and configured to move in an axial direction of the cylinder; and an actuator for moving the movable part in the axial direction to change a movable range of the intake valve between the intake valve seat and the back member.

A multi-cylinder fluid compressor for compressing a working fluid. The compressor includes a first gas compression cylinder, divided into axially aligned compression chambers by a first reciprocating gas piston, and a second gas compression cylinder, divided into axially aligned compression chambers by a second reciprocating gas piston. The gas compression cylinders are axially aligned and the reciprocating gas pistons are driven by a common piston rod extending through the compression cylinders and operably connected with the reciprocating gas pistons. The common piston rod is reciprocally driven by a hydraulic fluid supply system to reciprocally drive the reciprocating gas pistons. The compressor system may be operated as a multi-stage compressor system by conveying working fluid outlet from one compression chamber to the inlet of another compression chamber. Cooling may be provided between stages. One application for the compressor is in a vapor recovery system for drawing low pressure vapors that can accumulate above hydrocarbon liquids in a tank.
