According to a hermetic electric compressor of the present invention, a discharge port 66a is placed downstream of eddying flow from the joint portion 66b, a bent portion 66c is formed between the joint portion 66b and the discharge port 66a, an imaginary plumb line 66aY of an opening surface formed on the discharge port 66a is oriented to a circumferential direction of a hermetic container 10, and fluid having a small lubrication oil content is taken out from the discharge port 66a utilizing eddying flow of mixture fluid of refrigerant and lubrication oil in a gap space between a compressing mechanism 20 and a motor section 30, thereby reducing a discharge amount from the hermetic container 10.

An integrated air supply unit comprises a compressor housing, a pressure control unit (PCU) body, and a desiccant housing extending between the compressor housing and the PCU body. The desiccant housing defines a desiccant cavity holding a desiccant container for removing moisture from air passing therethrough. A piston is slidably disposed within a piston bore of the compressor housing. The PCU body defines a plurality of fluid passages with solenoid valves selectively controlling airflow therethrough. The integrated air supply unit may also comprise: a manifold, a discharge control valve, a compressor supplying pressurized air in a first pressurized air passage, a dryer configured to remove moisture from the pressurized air in the first pressurized air passage and to supply dried pressurized air in a second pressurized air passage, a supply control valve to control airflow between the second pressurized air passage and the manifold, and a piloted exhaust valve.

A vibration suppressing piping member suppresses vibration caused by a pulsating discharged gaseous fluid. The piping member includes a tubular portion and flange portions at both ends of the tubular portion. A bent portion is formed between the two flange portions. The two flange portions are directly connected to each other.

A flange for a pump comprises first and second faces and a passageway for cryogenic fluid flow extending from the first face to the second face and at least one of (1) the passageway is for a pipe and comprises a first portion of a first diameter and a second portion of a second diameter greater than the first diameter, wherein when the pipe has an outer diameter that is smaller than the second diameter a gap is formed between the pipe and the passageway where the pipe passes through the second portion; and (2) a first annular groove in one of the first face and the second face and extending around the passageway, wherein the first annular groove in cooperation with the passageway forms a bellows. The gap and bellows increase the thermal resistance between the passageway and the flange, and the bellows allows for flexure during thermal contractions of the flange reducing thermal stress on welded fluid seals.

Flange for a vacuum apparatus comprises a housing to be connected to the vacuum apparatus defining an opening wherein the opening has rectangular narrow shape. The flange further comprises a metal seal arranged around the opening to create a vacuum tight seal.

Housing for a vacuum pump, in particular a NEG or IGP-NEG combination, comprising a body defining an interior space to accommodate the vacuum pump, wherein a first flange is connected to the housing comprising an opening to connect the vacuum pump to a vessel and a second flange connected to the housing to connect the housing to an additional vacuum pump at least during regeneration. Further, a movable shield element is used movable from a first position to a second position, wherein in the first position the opening of the first flange is unobstructed and in the second position the opening is blocked.

A compressor includes a cylinder comprising a cylinder body which has a cylindrical shape and defining a compression space for refrigerant gas, a piston configured to be reciprocated in an axial direction within the cylinder body and to compress the refrigerant gas in the compression space, and a frame in which the cylinder is received, the frame defining a gas hole, one side of the gas hole communicating with outside so that the refrigerant gas is introduced, the other side of the gas hole extending up to an inner circumferential surface so as to guide the refrigerant gas.

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 high and low-pressure integrated air pump includes a single housing including an air inlet and an air outlet. A high-pressure pump is disposed within the housing and in fluid communication with the air inlet, and uses a first outlet passage to discharge to the air outlet. A low-pressure pump is also disposed within the housing and in fluid communication with the air inlet, and uses a second outlet passage to discharge to the air outlet.

A pump mechanism for vacuum sealing an airtight cavity formed by a container and a lid, including a bore having a first one-way seal allowing air from the airtight cavity to enter the bore and blocking air inside the bore from returning to the airtight cavity and a second one-way seal allowing air inside the bore to leave the bore without returning to the airtight cavity and blocking air outside of the bore from entering the bore, a piston disposed inside the bore, and a chamber of air enclosed by the bore, the first and second one-way seals, and the piston, wherein actuation of the piston in a first direction causes air to evacuate the airtight cavity and enter the chamber through the first one-way seal, and wherein actuation of the piston in a second direction causes air to exit the chamber through the second one-way seal.
