A dry-running vane gas pump includes a pump housing which forms a pump chamber, a pump rotor with at least one displaceable slide element which pump rotor is rotatably supported in the pump chamber, at least one fluid inlet opening associated with the pump chamber, a first fluid outlet opening associated with the pump chamber, a second fluid outlet opening associated with the pump chamber, and a non-return valve which closes the first fluid outlet opening. The second fluid outlet opening is permanently open. The first fluid outlet opening is arranged before the second fluid outlet opening in a direction of rotation of the pump rotor.

A rotary compressor includes a compression mechanism having a cylinder, a piston, and a Helmholtz muffler. The Helmholtz muffler has a resonance chamber in the compression mechanism and a communication groove formed on an end face of the cylinder to connect the cylinder and resonance chambers. The communication groove is open at the end face of the cylinder and has a pair of side wall portions and a bottom wall portion between the side wall portions. Each side wall portion has a first portion adjacent an open end of the communication groove and a second portion adjacent the bottom wall portion. A surface of the first portion is a flat or bowed surface. A surface of the second portion is a bowed surface having a predetermined curvature so as to be connected to the surface of the first portion and a surface of the bottom wall portion.

A compressor includes a first throttle portion that receives a refrigerant at an intermediate pressure from an injection pipe of a refrigerant circuit, an enlarged flow path portion that receives the refrigerant from the first throttle portion, a second throttle portion that receives the refrigerant from the enlarged flow path portion, and a compression element. The compression element includes a compression chamber that receives the refrigerant from the second throttle portion. The first throttle portion has a flow path cross-sectional area that is narrower than both a flow path cross-sectional area of the injection pipe and a flow path cross-sectional area of the enlarged flow path portion. The second throttle portion has a flow path cross-sectional area that is narrower than the flow path cross-sectional area of the enlarged flow path portion.

A method of assembling a compressor system includes attaching at least two pulsation damper stages to a discharge port on a compressor, and attaching additional pulsation dampening stages if additional stages are desired. A compressor and discharge system is also disclosed.

A compressor includes a driving motor, a centrifugation space, a discharge pipe, a rotary shaft, a compression portion, a pump assembly, and an oil pickup. The centrifugation space is defined inside a case by a downstream side of the driving motor and the case, and enables centrifugation of a compressed refrigerant and a lubricant oil. The discharge pipe can discharge the refrigerant from the centrifugation space outside the case. The rotary shaft is coupled to a rotor of the driving motor and defines an oil supply path. The compression portion is provided at an upstream side of the driving motor and can compress the refrigerant as the rotary shaft rotates. The pump assembly is provided below the rotary shaft and can pump oil as rotated with the rotary shaft. The oil pickup defines an oil supply path between the pump assembly and a low oil space formed inside the case.

A plumbing system including a pump noise dampener is provided. The plumbing system comprises: a pump to output a flow of process liquid; a measurement device to measure a flow rate of the process liquid output from the pump; and a process line coupling the output of the pump to an input of the measurement device. The pump noise dampener is disposed between the pump and the measurement device. The pump noise dampener comprises a bladderless, single chamber pressure vessel to hold the process liquid at a prescribed pressure and an isolation valve tying the pressure vessel into the process line in order to control a flow of the process liquid output from the pump into and out of the pressure vessel and to the measurement device. The pressure vessel is further configured to dampen noise of the process liquid output from the pump and input to the measurement device.

A compressor has a housing assembly having a plurality of ports including a suction port and a discharge A male rotor is mounted for rotation about an axis. A female rotor is enmeshed with the male rotor and mounted in the housing for rotation about an axis for drawing a flow from the suction port, compressing the flow, and discharging the compressed flow through the discharge port. A cavity group is between the discharge port and the male rotor and female rotor. The cavity group has a first member separating a plurality of cells and a foraminate cover member atop the first member.

The present disclosure relates to a compressor including a branch part for reducing vibration and noise caused by a refrigerant flowing inside a muffler by expanding an enclosed space formed by a compression part and the muffler in the direction of a rotation axis.

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.

According to one embodiment, a rotary compressor includes a compression mechanism unit and an electric motor. The compression mechanism unit includes a first bearing, a second bearing, first to third refrigerant compression units, a second intermediate partitioning panel, and a rotation shaft. The compression mechanism unit is fixed to the sealed container by a pair of fixing units which are provided at two locations spaced apart from each other in the axial direction of the rotation shaft, and the center of gravity of a structure comprising the compression mechanism unit and the rotor of the electric motor is positioned between the pair of fixing units.
