A compressor includes: a case, a compression unit that is provided inside the case and that includes a cylinder and a piston configured to reciprocate inside the cylinder to compress refrigerant, a driving unit that includes a stator disposed inside the case and a plurality of permanent magnets configured to reciprocate with respect to the stator and that is configured to provide a driving force to the compression unit, and a resonator that is configured to reduce noises generated while the compression unit is operated, that is disposed between the compression unit and an inner surface of the case facing the compression unit in an axial direction, and that is spaced apart from the compression unit.

A device for canceling acoustic noise generated includes, in one example, an inlet channel configured to be fluidly connected to an inlet port of a pump and an outlet channel configured to be fluidly connected to an outlet port of the pump. The device also includes an inlet resonator and an outlet resonator, both having open ends and closed ends. The open ends of the inlet and outlet resonators are fluidly connected to the inlet and outlet channels, respectively. When in operation, the inlet and outlet resonators can cancel noise generated by the operation of the pump.

A mechanism for limiting vibration amplitudes in a pumping system includes a plurality of pendulum absorbers coupled with a carrier and each having a pivoting range. The pendulum absorbers each further include a first and a second contact surface that contacts an outer peripheral surface of the carrier at limit stop positions, and each having a shape that is conforming with a shape of the outer peripheral surface. The pumping system may be used for pumping liquid nitrogen.

A shunt pulsation trap for a positive-displacement gas-transfer machine having a gas transfer chamber with an intake port and a discharge port and having at least one positive-displacement drive device (such as two cooperating rotors) defining a compression region of the transfer chamber. The trap includes a pulsation-trap chamber arranged for parallel fluid flow with the machine transfer chamber. The trap has a first (e.g., inlet) port in communication with the compression region of the transfer chamber (e.g., at least one lobe span away or totally isolated from the transfer-chamber intake port), a second (e.g., discharge) port in communication with the discharge port of the transfer chamber, and at least one pulsation dampener in the pulsation-trap chamber. In this way, the shunt pulsation trap traps and attenuates gas pulsations before discharge from the machinery transfer chamber, thereby reducing induced NVH and improving machinery efficiency.
