The piston includes a head, an air stop sheet having a first bending section which is a boundary line of an acting area and a positioning zone of the air stop sheet, and a back surface of the acting zone backing the top of the cylinder turns on relative to a plane of a top of the head at an open angle θ1. The acting zone has a noncircular spacing groove, a neck, and a second bending section. The head includes a piston rod having a cavity, an air conduit, a column, and a spring. The air stop sheet is forced by the spring to locate in the acting zone backing the cylinder and a plane of a top of the head at an open angle θ1.

An air compressor contains a piston which is actuated by a motor to move upward and downward in a cylinder. The piston includes an air stop sheet mounted on a head thereof, and the air stop sheet has a bending section, a positioning zone, and an acting zone. A piston rod extends downward from the head and includes a cavity, an air conduit, a column extending from a bottom thereof, and a spring fitted on the column and inserting through the air channel of the head along the cavity of the piston rod so that the spring abuts against a back surface of an acting zone of an air stop sheet, the air stop sheet is forced by the spring to locate in the acting zone at an open angle θ, and the air conduit and the air channel communicate with atmosphere.

A sensor system for determining a condition associated with a piston rod of a reciprocating system includes an interrogator system having a first antenna. The sensor system further includes a second antenna separated from the first antenna by an air gap distance. The second antenna is configured to be coupled to the piston rod of the reciprocating system. The second antenna is a patch antenna and is configured to communicate with the first antenna through a range of translational movement relative to the first antenna. The sensor system further includes a radio frequency sensor coupled to the second antenna. The radio frequency sensor is configured to be coupled to the piston rod of the reciprocating system, measure a characteristic associated with the piston rod of the reciprocating system, and transmit data associated with the characteristic to the first antenna of the interrogator system through the second antenna.

Systems are provided for an air compressor system. In one example, a system includes a housing, a piston arranged in the housing, and a crankshaft arranged in the housing, the crankshaft coupled to a connecting rod of the piston, and the crankshaft forces the piston to oscillate from a first end of the housing to a second end, the piston pressurizing air in the housing to a first pressure at the first end and to a second pressure at the second end, the second pressure greater than the first.

A system includes a reciprocating expander including: a piston disposed in a chamber; a crankshaft; a connector rod coupled between the piston and the crankshaft and configured to transfer torque to the crankshaft in response to movement of the piston in the chamber; and a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet on one side of the piston. The system also includes a first flowpath coupled between a wellbore and the reciprocating expander and configured to communicate gas from the wellbore into the fluid inlet of the reciprocating expander at a first pressure. The system further includes a second flowpath coupled between the reciprocating expander and downstream equipment and configured to communicate the gas from the reciprocating expander toward the downstream equipment at a second pressure, the second pressure being lower than the first pressure.

In a compressor for discharging a medium, in particular tire sealant that is to be discharged from a container into a tire, wherein a motor (1) of the compressor (P) drives a step-up transmission wheel (3, 3.1) for moving at least one piston (6-6.6) in a compression chamber (7), the step-up transmission wheel (3, 3.1) is intended to be provided only partially on its circumference with a toothing (20) and/or to consist of two toothed wheels (11, 12) lying on each other.

A tangentially cut rod packing ring is provided. The tangentially cut rod packing ring comprises a first ring formed from a plurality of segments. Each of the segments has a portion of two interfaces where each interface slidably engages an interface of an adjacent segment. One interface terminates at a leading surface. One interface has a stop surface. The leading surface is originally separated from the stop surface by a gap. As the interfaces slidably move, the gap lessens until the leading surface abuts the stop surface. The tangentially cut rod packing ring also comprises a second ring formed from a plurality of segments. The second ring has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion forms as shelf on which the first ring sits. The second portion surrounds the first ring. An elastic member in a groove on the outer surface of the second portion provides a compressive force on both the second ring and the first ring.

A hermetic compressor accommodates in hermetic container (101) electric motor element (102) and compression element (103) driven by electric motor element (102).
