A reciprocating compressor comprising a cylinder and a piston dividing the cavity in the cylinder into a first and a second chamber being connected through respective suction valve systems and discharge valve systems to a suction duct and a discharge duct. The suction and discharge valve systems each including a housing defining a valve chamber and a valve body, whereby the compressor is further provided with a vessel defining a volume in fluid connection with a valve chamber of one of the discharge valve systems by a conduit.

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.

Suction muffler (1) for a hermetic refrigeration compressor (2), the suction muffler (1) comprising an inlet (3), so that refrigerant can flow into the suction muffler (1), and an outlet (4), so that refrigerant can flow out from the suction muffler (1), the suction muffler (1) further comprising two damping chambers (5, 6) for sound damping, where the two damping chambers (5, 6) each has a floor (8, 9) and where a wall element (11) is provided, in order to separate the two damping chambers (5, 6) from each other for the refrigerant in the region of their floors (8, 9). In order to guarantee that the damping chambers (5, 6) are overall as gas-tight and sound-tight as possible, it is provided according to the invention that in the region of the wall element (11) at least one siphon segment (16) that connects the two floors is disposed, in order to receive oil (14) in an operating position of the suction muffler (1), where the at least one siphon segment (16) connects the two damping chambers (5, 6) in siphon fashion to each other for the oil (14).

A linear compressor includes: a shell including an intake pipe configured to suction a refrigerant, a piston including a piston body, an intake muffler including a first muffler that includes a first muffler body defining a main flow passage and a first muffler flange extending in a radial direction from the first muffler body, and at least one auxiliary flow passage disposed between an outer peripheral surface of the first muffler body and an inner peripheral surface of the piston body and configured to guide the refrigerant remaining between the first muffler body and the piston body to an outside of the piston. A cross-sectional area of the at least one auxiliary flow passage is less than a cross-sectional area of an inlet hole provided at a rear end of the main flow passage and greater than or equal to 10% of the cross-sectional area of the inlet hole.

A compressor includes a compression mechanism to compress gas and discharge compressed gas, an electric motor to drive the compression mechanism, a casing housing the compression mechanism and the electric motor, a suction pipe connected to a suction side of the compression mechanism via the casing, and a discharge pipe provided at the casing to open in a space in the casing. The space has a first space located below the motor, and a second space located above the motor. The compression mechanism is disposed in the first space. The compressor is provided with a partition plate disposed in the second space, and the having a gas passage hole. The partition plate further has an oil drain hole formed at a lower level than an open end of the gas passage hole, and located radially outside an outer peripheral surface of a rotor of the electric motor.
