The present relation relates to the technological field of compressors. Problem to be solved: The current reciprocating compressors valves arrangements includes valves whose flexion area suffer from direct interference of the body disposed immediately over said valve. Such feature, besides damaging de valve movement, further causes wear phenomena on the flexion areas of the valve, which can result in critical fault of the valve and consequently of the compressor. Resolution of the problem: It is revealed a valve arrange whose end valve capable of moving includes a flexion area previously defined and intentionally misaligned with any contact area of the body immediately disposed over the valve.

A pump system (120) has a central pump unit (110), with which at least one hook-up unit (130). The least one hook-up unit (130) is from a group of a plurality of hook-up units (130) that can be combined in modular form for setting an operating point of a pump (10) that forms the pump unit (110). A method uses such a hook-up unit (130) in a pump system (120) for setting an operating point of the pump unit (110) thereof. A medical device is provided with such a pump unit (110) or with such a pump unit (110) and at least one hook-up unit (130) combined with the pump unit (110).

A hydraulically operated compressor has a fixed piston and a fixed compression or outer cylinder. A drive or intermediate cylinder is located between the piston and outer cylinder. A compression chamber is formed between the drive cylinder and the outer cylinder. Drive fluid is pumped into and released from an interior chamber in the drive cylinder to reciprocate the drive cylinder. The drive fluid also provides cooling to the interior of the compressor.

Fluid flow adapter for a cylinder of a reciprocating compressor, the cylinder having a side wall provided with a valve seat, the fluid flow adapter comprising a filler element having an internal surface facing an internal volume of the cylinder and an external surface facing the valve, the filler element having at least a channel connecting the internal surface to the external surface, wherein the internal surface is flush with the side wall of the cylinder, the channel being configured to allow the passage of fluid between the internal volume of the cylinder and the valve.

The present invention relates to a condensate drain valve, which is connected to a condensate discharge pipe of an air compression equipment, for discharging the condensate generated inside the air compression equipment together with compressed air to the outside, which comprises: a main body; an opening and closing member, and a communication path formed therein for communicating the inlet hole and the discharge hole. According to the present invention, the automatic drain valve for condensed water capable of continuously and automatically discharging the condensed water generated in the air compression device even during the operation of the air compression device can be formed in a compact structure, thereby facilitating the manufacture of the device and remarkably reducing the manufacturing costs.

A pneumatic valve adapter that couples with a valve stem of a bicycle tire is provided. The valve adapter comprises a cap, a seal, a biasing member, and a sealing member. The cap includes a pin passage and a circumferential concavity on an outer diameter. The receiver is coupled to the cap and is couplable with the valve stem, the receiver having a first opening that is fluidly coupled to a central passage. The seal has a circular shape and cross-section, the seal is disposed between the cap and the end of the receiver, the seal having a second hole that fluidly couples the first opening and the pin passage. The biasing member is disposed in the central passage. The sealing member is disposed within the central passage and biased against the seal by the biasing member, the sealing member being movable between a first position and a second position.
