An air compressor contains: a body, a cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism. The body includes multiple positioning orifices which are a first positioning orifice and a second positioning orifice. The cylinder is connected on the body and communicates with an air storage holder. The motor is fixed on the body, a small gear is received in the first positioning orifice, and a connection seat of the motor is accommodated in the first orifice. The transmission mechanism actuates the piston to move in the cylinder reciprocately so as to produce compressed airs. The motor further includes multiple fixing portions extending from a head edge of the casing thereof and configured to engage with the body, thus fixing the motor on the body securely without using any screws.

A fixing device of a motor of an air compressor contains: a body, a cylinder, a motor, a transmission mechanism, and at least one retainer. The body includes a first positioning orifice and a second positioning orifice. The cylinder is connected on the body. The motor is fixed on the body, a small gear is received in the first positioning orifice and is connected on the motor, and a connection seat of the motor is accommodated in the first orifice. The transmission mechanism actuates a piston to move in the cylinder reciprocately. The at least one retainer is configured to fix the body and the motor. A first end of at least one retainer is engaged on the body, and a second end of the at least one retainer is engaged on the motor so that the motor is fixed on the body without using any screws.

An air compressor is received in an accommodation box and contains a body, a cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism. The body includes a first positioning orifice and a second positioning orifice. The cylinder is connected on the body and communicates with an air storage holder. The motor is fixed on the body, a small gear is received in the first positioning orifice, and a connection seat is accommodated in the first orifice. The transmission mechanism actuates a piston to move in the cylinder reciprocately so as to produce compressed airs. The motor includes at least one locking extension for engaging the motor with the body, hence the motor is fixed on the body securely without using any screws.

Systems and methods to enhance the flow of fracturing fluid into a wellhead during a high-pressure fracturing operation may include providing a pump frame and a crankshaft. A plurality of first plungers may be connected to the crankshaft and may reciprocate in a first plane. The hydraulic fracturing pump also may include a plurality of second plungers connected to the crankshaft and positioned to reciprocate in a second plane. The first plane and the second plane may define a non-zero offset angle between the first plane and the second plane. The crankshaft may include a plurality of crankpins, and each of the crankpins may be connected to one of the first plungers and one of the second plungers. The first plungers may pump a first fracturing fluid and the second plungers may pump a second fracturing fluid different from the first fracturing fluid.
