WIND-POWERED ENERGY GENERATOR SYSTEM
An energy generator system is provided that is capable of capturing the transitory energy contained within the wind and converting it to a form of storable energy for later use in generating electricity. The energy generator system includes a compression system including an air compressor for compressing incoming air and a rotor for operating the compressor in response to the wind flowing over the rotor. An intake system is associated with the compression system and provides clean ambient air to the air compressor. The compression system and the intake system c contained in a wind tower having a head for supporting the rotor and an elongate pylon for positioning the rotor at a sufficient height to capture the energy of the wind. The natural energy system additionally includes a storage system for storing the compressed air produced by the air compressor.
CYLINDRICAL MAGNETIC COUPLING WITH ALTERNATING POLARITY
A magnetically coupled piston pump includes a piston, a pump body, and a set of drive magnets. The piston includes a set of piston magnets. Each piston magnet has poles arranged along a longitudinal axis of the piston, and each piston magnet is arranged in the piston so that the orientation of the poles of each piston magnet is the opposite of the orientation of each adjacent piston magnet. The piston is disposed in and permitted to move within the pump body. The set of drive magnets is arranged outside the pump body. Each drive magnet corresponds to a piston magnet, has poles arranged along the longitudinal axis, and is arranged so that the orientation of the poles is opposite the orientation of the poles of the corresponding piston magnet. A drive unit is coupled to the drive magnets for moving the drive magnets along the longitudinal axis.

Multi-Piece Fluid End
A fluid end is formed from a first body attached to a separate second body. Each body includes an external surface. When the bodies are attached, their respective external surfaces are in flush engagement. A plurality of bores are formed in the second body that are alignable with a plurality of corresponding bores formed in the first body. The fluid end may be used with seals disposed within recesses within each bore to seal against corresponding sealing surfaces. Further, retaining closures may be bolted to the fluid end bodies, such that the closures have a threadless connection to the fluid end bodies. Various combinations of such components may be utilized.
Air compressor
Disclosed is an air compressor in which a driving shaft and a crankshaft tube that surrounds the driving shaft are axially coupled, a clutch is installed between the driving shaft and a rear end of the crankshaft tube, and an air cylinder including a steam cylinder, a piston spaced apart at a certain distance from the steam cylinder, and an interval former installed between the steam cylinder and the piston is installed in a crankcase that forms a pump chamber, to prevent frictional ring plates that rub steel ring plates of the clutch together from being worn by a determined thickness or more by the interval former and simultaneously to cut off supplying of compressed air to the inlet of the air cylinder by the interval former in such a way that a connection state between the driving shaft and the crankshaft tube is continuously maintained.
CONNECTION STRUCTURE FOR MOTOR OF AIR COMPRESSOR
A connection structure for a motor of an air compressor contains: a base, a cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism.

Dual engine-compressor system
The present invention is directed to a dual engine-compressor system having a crankcase enclosing a crankshaft and having engine cylinder housings and compressor cylinder housings linearly disposed on opposite sides of the crankcase. Combustion pistons are reciprocatingly disposed in the engine cylinder housings and defines alternating combustion chambers on opposite sides of the pistons. Compressor pistons are reciprocatingly disposed in the compressor housings and define alternating low and high pressure compressor chambers on opposite sides of the compressor pistons. The compressor pistons underdo a 4-cycle process to drawn in, re-distribute, and then compress fluid. The compressor cylinder and piston has a series of one-way intakes and reed valves to selectively draw or push fluid in response to movement of the compressor piston.
Fuel pump and inlet valve assembly thereof
A fuel pump includes a fuel pump housing with a pumping chamber; a pumping plunger which reciprocates within a plunger bore; and an inlet valve assembly. The inlet valve assembly includes a check valve member which is moveable between an unseated position which provides fluid communication between the pumping chamber and a fuel supply passage and a seated position which prevents fluid communication between the pumping chamber and the fuel supply passage; and a solenoid assembly which includes a wire winding; a pole piece; an armature which is moveable between a first position when the wire winding is not energized and a second position when the wire winding is energized; a return spring which biases the armature away from the pole piece; and a control rod which is moveable along the inlet valve axis independently of the armature.
