A linear compressor includes a cylinder that defines a compression space of a refrigerant and has a cylindrical shape, and a piston disposed in the cylinder and reciprocating along an axis of the cylinder. The cylinder includes a gas inlet on an outer circumferential surface and a supply port radially passing through the cylinder and communicating with the gas inlet. The gas inlet includes a first gas inlet and a second gas inlet disposed behind the first gas inlet, and the supply port includes a first supply port communicating with the first gas inlet and a second supply port disposed behind the first supply port and communicating with the second gas inlet. A flow rate passing through the first supply port is different from a flow rate passing through the second supply port.

The present invention discloses a zipper tab assembly with exhausting and/or inflating functions. The zipper tab assembly includes a housing, an electric air pump disposed inside the housing and configured to exhaust or inflate, and a power terminal having an input port and an output port. The input port protrudes out of the housing, and the output port is disposed inside the housing and electrically connected to the electric air pump. The zipper tab assembly further includes a hook disposed outside the housing and connected to the housing. The zipper tab assembly of the present invention has exhausting and/or inflating functions and has the advantages of practicability, convenient utilization, small size, light weight, convenient wearing and convenient carrying.

A compressor pump structure comprises a rotating shaft, a piston, a cylinder, a cylinder sleeve, a lower flange and an upper flange, the central axis of the rotating shaft being arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis of the cylinder, the rotating shaft being slidably arranged in the piston, the piston being movably arranged in the cylinder and forming two volume-variable chambers with the cylinder, the piston comprising two first sliding planes arranged opposite one another and two first contacting planes arranged opposite one another, the first contacting plane on the upper side being in sealing contact with the upper flange, and the first contacting plane on the lower side being in sealing contact with the lower flange. Also disclosed is a compressor with the compressor pump structure.

A process for manufacturing an optical system includes forming a first hydrophobic surface at a semiconductor substrate, providing a first drop of transparent material having a first shape on the first hydrophobic surface, and allowing the first drop to harden to form a first optical element having the first shape. The optical system may be a particle detector, and the process may optionally further include forming a light source at the semiconductor substrate configured to generate a light beam that passes through the first optical element and a cavity to a photodetector.

A machine includes a liquid lubrication system and a shaft, the shaft being rotatable about a rotation axis, the shaft including a first part, a second part engaged coaxially with the first part, and a journal bearing between the first part and the second part, the first part being rotatable relative to the second part about the rotation axis, a helical feature disposed between the first part and the second part and configured to define a helical pump between the first part and the second part, the pump being hydraulically connected to the liquid lubrication system, the journal bearing being disposed adjacent to the helical feature.
