A linear compressor includes a shell, a frame in the shell, a cylinder defining a compression space, a piston in the cylinder, a motor assembly that drives the piston, a discharge cover unit defining a discharge space that receives refrigerant from the compression space, a discharge valve that selectively opens and closes the compression space, and a valve spring assembly that provides elastic force that causes the discharge valve to contact a front surface of the cylinder. The discharge cover unit includes a cover housing, the cover housing that couples the frame, a dividing sleeve that extends from an inside of the cover housing in a longitudinal direction of the shell and that divides the discharge space into discharge chambers, and a discharge cover that inserts into the inside of the cover housing and that contacts an end portion of the dividing sleeve.

The present disclosure relates to a linear compressor. The linear compressor according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a shell, a cylinder, a piston, and a muffler. Also, an internal space in which at least a portion of the muffler is inserted is formed in the piston, and the muffler is disposed in contact with the inner wall of the piston forming the internal space.

The invention relates to a device (1) for damping pressure pulsations for a compressor of a gaseous fluid, in particular of a refrigerant. The device comprises a housing (2), a piston element (6) as well as a spring element (8). The housing (2) is developed encompassing a chamber (3), with an inlet opening (4) and an outlet opening (5). The piston element (6), supported such that it is stayed across the spring element (8) on the housing (2), is disposed within the chamber (3) dividing the chamber (3) into a first chamber volume (3a) and a second chamber volume (3b), as well as being disposed movably in a direction of motion (11) between a first end position and a second end position. The motion of the piston element (6) effects a change of the chamber volumes (3a, 3b) and of a flow cross section of the outlet opening (5). The piston element (6) is developed as a hollow cylinder with two, at least partially closed, end faces (7, 13). The piston element (6) herein comprises at least one through-opening (14, 15) developed as a fluidic connection between a chamber volume (3a, 3b) and a volume encompassed by a wall of the piston element (6).

A silencer for vacuum pumps which allows only for unidirectional flow and which reduces the noises caused by the air discharged at the exhaust of said pump. The silencer features baffles to divert and disrupt the flow and an umbrella check valve to ensure the unidirectionality of the discharge flow.

A linear compressor is provided. The linear compressor may include a cylinder that defines a compression space, a piston having a plurality of suction holes through which a refrigerant is introduced into the compression space, and a muffler connected to the piston and through which the refrigerant supplied to the piston flows. The muffler may include a seat seated on one side of the piston, and a protrusion arranged inside the piston. The protrusion may include plurality of flow pipes that extends from the seat to an inside of the piston to guide the refrigerant to the plurality of suction holes and a resonator arranged at one side of the plurality of flow pipes and having a resonance space therein.

A compressor assembly having a tank seal which seals a tank gap between a portion of a housing of the compressor assembly and a portion of a compressed gas tank and a method for controlling the sound level of a compressor assembly by configuring a tank seal to seal a gap between the housing of a compressor assembly and a compressed gas tank. The sound level of the compressor assembly can be controlled by sealing a tank gap between at least a portion of a compressor assembly housing and at least a portion of a compressed gas tank.

An air sampling pump includes a reciprocating piston for operating a diaphragm assembly. The diaphragm includes a valve head including a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet and a fluid chamber defining a fluid path between the inlet and outlet. A diaphragm sealing engages the valve head and encloses the fluid chamber. The diaphragm includes a piston diaphragm membrane portion coupled to the piston for reciprocating with the piston and reciprocation of the piston causes a change in air pressure within the fluid chamber to cause air to move from the fluid inlet toward the fluid outlet. The diaphragm includes a damper membrane portion, which cooperate to reduce an amplitude of pulsation in the airflow at the fluid inlet and fluid outlet.

The present invention relates to a suction pulsation reducing device of a swash plate type compressor, and more particularly, to a suction pulsation reduction apparatus provided on a suction channel formed in a rear head of a swash plate type compressor, in which a moving range of a core portion is limited and all parts to be mounted on a suction channel are integrally formed in a case.

A pulsation damper for a condensate pump comprising a housing defining a fluid chamber having a liquid inlet connectable to an outlet of the condensate pump, an air inlet, and a liquid outlet, wherein the air inlet includes a one-way valve configured to selectively introduce air into the housing to maintain a first air pocket within the fluid chamber as liquid flows through the fluid chamber, wherein the liquid outlet is located outside the first air pocket, and wherein the air pocket is configured to dissipate pulsations within liquid entering the housing at the liquid inlet prior to the liquid discharging via the liquid outlet.

A fluid system includes a pumping flowline, wherein the pumping flowline is in selectable fluid communication with a production flowline, a cylinder including a first port and a second port, a piston slidably disposed in the cylinder, the piston sealing against an inner surface of the cylinder to form a first chamber and a second chamber, wherein the first chamber is in fluid communication with the first port and the second chamber is in fluid communication with the second port, and a first flowline in fluid communication with the first port of the cylinder and the pumping flowline, the first flowline including a first flowline valve, wherein, in response to opening the first flowline valve, the piston is displaced through the cylinder in a first direction to expand a volume of the first chamber of the cylinder.
