A gas compressor compressing gas includes a cylinder liner, a piston member, and a first sliding member. The piston member includes a piston reciprocating in an inner space of the cylinder liner, and a piston rod connected to the piston. The first sliding member is made of a resin, has a ring shape, and is provided on one of the piston member and the cylinder liner. The first sliding member slides relatively against a reception member while another of the piston member and the cylinder liner serves as the reception member that receives sliding. An amorphous carbon film is formed on a sliding surface of each of the first sliding member and the reception member. A carbon content in the amorphous carbon film formed on each of the sliding surfaces is larger in its surface part than in its inner part on an inner side of the surface part.

A packing sleeve for a pump fluid end. The packing sleeve comprising a tubular body having a first end, a second end, and a total axial length along a center axis extending from the first end to the second end; the tubular body further comprises a first region that is adjacent to the first end, wherein the first region extends away from the first end a first axial distance and a second region that is adjacent to the second end, wherein the second region extends away from the second end a second axial distance and abuts the first region, wherein the first axial distance and the second axial distance equal the total axial length and wherein the first axial distance comprises about 35-70% of the total axial length.

The reciprocating compressor has a cylinder with a compression chamber where a piston can slide between a crank-side position and a head-side position; a piston rod is mechanically connected to the piston and during operation of the compressor, slides in a hole of the compression chamber; there is a small gap between the hole and the piston rod; in order to avoid leakage from this gap a jacket is arranged around the piston rod and is sealed on one side to the piston and on the other side to the cylinder at the gap.

A linear compressor includes a spring axially elastically supporting a driving assembly. The spring includes a spring body axially extending, a front spring link forming an end of the spring body by extending from a side of the spring body, and a rear spring link forming the other end of the spring body by extending from the other side of the spring body. Any one of the front spring link and the rear spring link is fixed to the driving assembly and the other one is fixed to a supporting assembly.

The present invention relates to a linear compressor. The linear compressor according to an aspect of the present invention includes a spring axially elastically supporting a driving assembly. The spring includes a spring body axially extending, a front spring link forming an end of the spring body by extending from a side of the spring body, and a rear spring link forming the other end of the spring body by extending from the other side of the spring body. Any one of the front spring link and the rear spring link is fixed to the driving assembly and the other one is fixed to a supporting assembly.

A linear compressor includes a cylinder that defines a compression space of a refrigerant and has a cylindrical shape, and a piston disposed in the cylinder and reciprocating along an axis of the cylinder. The cylinder includes a gas inlet on an outer circumferential surface and a supply port radially passing through the cylinder and communicating with the gas inlet. The gas inlet includes a first gas inlet and a second gas inlet disposed behind the first gas inlet, and the supply port includes a first supply port communicating with the first gas inlet and a second supply port disposed behind the first supply port and communicating with the second gas inlet. A flow rate passing through the first supply port is different from a flow rate passing through the second supply port.

A nitriding layer (13) is formed on the front surface side of a base material of a cylinder block (7) including an opening side end surface (7B) and each cylinder hole (12). Then, a piston sliding surface (12A) of each cylinder hole (12) is formed as a compound layer-removed hole (17) by removing a compound layer (16) that is located on the front surface side of the nitriding layer (13) by using polishing means such as, for example, honing and so forth. Further, a compound layer-removed surface (18) is formed on a part (A) where a compound layer-removed hole (17) and a cylinder inlet side tapered surface (12B) of each cylinder hole (12) intersect by using the polishing means such as, for example, the honing and so forth. This compound layer-removed surface (18) is formed as a tapered-state inclined surface of an angle α.
