A rotary piston compressor for compressing gas, in particular carbon dioxide, in which a side wall face of a housing side wall and a respective planar sealing face of a respective housing cover enclose a working chamber and a rotary piston is rotatably mounted in the working chamber on an eccentric. A respective planar-seal receiving channel is formed in the piston bases of the rotary piston and a planar seal is arranged in each of the planar-seal receiving channels. To press the seal surface of the respective planar seal against the respective planar sealing face, lateral-surface openings in the piston lateral surface of the rotary piston have a pressure-transmitting connection to the respective planar-seal receiving channel via pressure leadthrough lines, formed inside the rotary piston and each open into the respective planar-seal receiving channel on a side of the respective planar seal facing away from the seal surface.

According to one embodiment, a rotary compressor accommodating an electric motor portion and a compression mechanism portion in a sealed case, wherein the compression mechanism portion comprises a cylinder, a roller, and a vane. The vane is disposed by stacking two divided vanes in a height direction of the cylinder, which is an axis direction of the rotation axis, and where a height dimension of one divided vane is H, and a minute gap between a height dimension of the cylinder and a height dimension of the two stacked divided vanes is L, a proportion of the minute gap L to the vane height dimension H per one divided vane is
0.001<L/number of divided vanes/H<0.0015.

The non-lubricated compressor (10) for compressing a gas, comprises: a stationary stator (12) with a housing (18) comprising a rotor cavity (20) delimited by a bottom wall (22), a top wall (24), and a lateral wall (26) connecting said bottom wall (22) and said top wall (24), a rotor element (14) arranged for rotation about an axis (z) within the rotor cavity (20) for compressing a gas therein, a self-supporting sealing element (16) arranged within the rotor cavity (20), wherein the sealing element (16) is made of an abradable carbon material, and comprises a wall portion (34) arranged on an inner surface of the lateral wall (26) of the rotor cavity (20).

A vacuum pump, which is connectable to an external system and configured to evacuate material from the external system, includes a main housing defining a motor housing, a pump housing, and a partition wall that separates the motor housing and the pump housing. The pump housing is sealed relative to the motor housing to form a compression chamber that holds a lubrication fluid. The vacuum pump further includes a motor assembly that is positioned within the motor housing and a pump assembly that is positioned within the compression chamber. The pump assembly is driven by the motor assembly and is in fluid communication with the compression chamber. The pump assembly includes a pump chamber, a rotor having vanes that is driven within the pump chamber, and a seal that is in sliding contact with the rotor. The seal is moveable relative to the rotor.
