A coupling assembly arranged between an input shaft and a rotor shaft of a supercharger includes a first hub, a second hub, a first side coupling assembly, a second side coupling assembly, a central hub and a plurality of coupler pins. The first hub is mounted for concurrent rotation with the input shaft. The second hub is mounted for concurrent rotation with the rotor shaft. The first side coupling assembly has a first side coupling body and a first side elastomeric insert. The first side coupling body includes an inboard body portion having a first series of pockets and an outboard body portion having a second series of pockets. The first side elastomeric insert has a first and second plurality of lobes. The pockets of the first and second series of pockets are tangentially offset relative to each other and each receive respective first and second plurality of lobes therein.

A compressor may include a casing having a refrigerant inlet space therein that communicates with a suction pipe through which a refrigerant is suctioned into the casing; a high/low pressure separation plate that crosses an upper portion of a compression unit to partition the refrigerant inlet space positioned at a lower portion of the high/low pressure separation plate and a refrigerant discharge space positioned at an upper portion thereof; and a discharge guide. The discharge guide may be provided in the refrigerant discharge space and may be coupled with an upper surface of the high/low pressure separation plate to cover a communication hole of the high/low pressure separation plate that provides communication between the refrigerant inlet space and the refrigerant discharge space and at least a portion thereof may extend to a discharge pipe.

A rotary compressor may include a case, a cylinder, a roller, a vane, a main bearing and a sub bearing, and a discharge passage defined in the main bearing or the sub bearing to discharge refrigerant compressed in a compression space. The discharge passage may include at least one discharge hole formed through the main bearing or the sub bearing, and at least one discharge guide groove having a first end that communicates with the at least one discharge hole and a second end that extends from the at least one discharge hole toward a contact point between the cylinder and the roller and is recessed from one surface of the main bearing or the sub bearing forming the compression space. Accordingly, an amount of refrigerant remaining in the compression space even after a discharge stroke may be reduced.

A rotary pump, preferably a vane cell pump or a pendulum slider pump, includes a stator and a rotor which rotates about a rotational axis within the stator. The rotor includes multiple delivery elements which move radially in relation to the rotational axis, and two adjacent delivery elements limit a delivery cell together with the outer surface area of the rotor and the inner surface area of the stator. At least two delivery cells, preferably two adjacent delivery cells, exhibiting a first maximum cell volume form a first delivery cell group and at least two other delivery cells, preferably two other adjacent delivery cells, exhibiting a second maximum cell volume form a second delivery cell group. The first maximum cell volume of the delivery cells of the first delivery cell group is larger than the second maximum cell volume of the delivery cells of the second delivery cell group.

The disclosure provides a pump device capable of suppressing hydraulic amplitude and reducing noise or vibration associated with hydraulic amplitude while simplifying the structure. The pump device includes: a housing which defines a suction port, a discharge port, and an accommodation chamber; and a pump unit which is arranged in the accommodation chamber and which defines a pump chamber that expands and contracts to exert a pumping action including a suction stroke and a pressurization and discharge stroke on a fluid. The housing includes an air introduction hole that is opened to introduce air into the pump chamber at a predetermined opening timing immediately before the suction stroke is completed.

A fluid machine device includes a plurality of fluid machines that discharge a fluid; a worn state detection unit that detects a worn state of the fluid machine; a pressure detection unit that measures a pressure from the fluid machines; and a control unit that controls the plurality of fluid machines. The control unit determines whether or not there is the fluid machine that is worn, and performs control to start operation of the fluid machine that is not worn when the pressure is insufficient.

A rotary compressor may include a case, a cylinder, a roller, a vane, a main bearing and a sub bearing, and a discharge passage defined in the main bearing or the sub bearing to discharge refrigerant compressed in a compression space. The discharge passage may include at least one discharge hole formed through the main bearing or the sub bearing, and at least one discharge guide groove having a first end that communicates with the at least one discharge hole and a second end that extends from the at least one discharge hole toward a contact point between the cylinder and the roller and is recessed from one surface of the main bearing or the sub bearing forming the compression space. Accordingly, an amount of refrigerant remaining in the compression space even after a discharge stroke may be reduced.

A fluid compressor is provided. The fluid compressor includes a case including an inlet configured to introduce fluid to be compressed, a compression unit including a compression chamber configured to compress the fluid introduced into the case, and a discharge port configured to discharge the compressed fluid to the outside of the compression chamber, a motor configured to drive the compression unit, and a valve configured to open and close the discharge port. The valve includes a fastening portion coupled to the compression unit to be spaced a first distance from the discharge port.

A discharge muffler for a fluid pump is formed by a cowling and a muffler insert configured to be removably inserted into a muffler receptacle of the cowling. The muffler insert includes a muffler inlet, a muffler outlet, and a plurality of muffler walls. The pump includes a pumping stage, a motor, and a drive shaft coupled between the pumping stage and the motor. When the muffler insert is inserted into the muffler receptacle, the muffler inlet communicates with the pumping stage, and the cowling and the muffler insert cooperatively define the discharge muffler. The discharge muffler is configured or effective to suppress noise generated by fluid discharged from the pumping stage.
