A multistage compressor is disclosed that may include a wobbling member operationally coupled with an external power source. The external power source may drive a nutating motion of the wobbling member. The multistage compressor may further include a plurality of flexible chambers connected to the wobbling member, each flexible chamber including a respective intake passage and a respective discharge passage. The wobbling member may sequentially press down and pull up the plurality of flexible chambers. The multistage compressor may further include a one-way valve in each respective intake passage and gas may be drawn into each flexible chamber through the respective one-way valve of each flexible chamber as the wobbling member pulls up each flexible chamber. The gas may then be compressed to a higher pressure as the wobbling member presses down each flexible chamber and compressed gas may be discharged through the respective discharge passage of each flexible chamber.

A manually operated pump exhibiting numerous improvement over existing such pumps is described. The pump can include a cylinder that is removeably mounted to a molded valve box of unitary construction. The valve box can feature a valve plate covering a valve chamber and housing an inlet valve and an outlet valve. In some instances, the pump includes a molded piston of unitary construction to which a pair of opposing piston cups is mounted. In some cases, the pump includes a filler cap forming an inlet adapted to deliver a priming fluid into the cylinder. In some cases, the pump includes a stopper cap adapted to prevent a pump shaft from being fully pulled out of the cylinder.

A pump includes a vibrating plate, a flow path forming member, a pump chamber, and a film valve. The vibrating plate is provided with a piezoelectric element, vibrates due to distortion of the piezoelectric element, and has a gap on an outer periphery. The flow path forming member is disposed so as to face the vibrating plate, and has a hole in a portion facing the vibrating plate. The pump chamber is surrounded by the vibrating plate and the flow path forming member, and has a central space communicating with the hole and an outer edge space communicating with the gap. The film valve is disposed in the pump chamber. The film valve is in contact with the vibrating plate and the flow path forming member when a pressure in the central space is lower than a pressure in the outer edge space.

A pump (10) includes: a flat plate (20); a piezoelectric element (21); a flat plate (30); a side wall (40); a support member (22); a support member (32); a shielding plate (500); a ventilation hole (23); a ventilation hole (33); a film valve (61); and a film valve (62). The film valve (61) is arranged in a region where the flat plate (20) and the shielding plate (500) face each other. The film valve (62) is arranged in a region where the flat plate (30) and the shielding plate (500) face each other. A center side of one of the film valve (61) and the film valve (62) is fixed in a state in which an outer edge side is movable, and the outer edge side of the other is fixed in a state in which the center side is movable.

An air compressor contains a piston which is actuated by a motor to move upward and downward in a cylinder. The piston includes an air stop sheet mounted on a head thereof, and the air stop sheet has a bending section, a positioning zone, and an acting zone. A piston rod extends downward from the head and includes a cavity, an air conduit, a column extending from a bottom thereof, and a spring fitted on the column and inserting through the air channel of the head along the cavity of the piston rod so that the spring abuts against a back surface of an acting zone of an air stop sheet, the air stop sheet is forced by the spring to locate in the acting zone at an open angle θ, and the air conduit and the air channel communicate with atmosphere.

A pump includes a vibrating plate, a flow path forming member, a pump chamber, and a film valve. The vibrating plate is provided with a piezoelectric element, vibrates due to distortion of the piezoelectric element, and has a gap on an outer periphery. The flow path forming member is disposed so as to face the vibrating plate, and has a hole in a portion facing the vibrating plate. The pump chamber is surrounded by the vibrating plate and the flow path forming member, and has a central space communicating with the hole and an outer edge space communicating with the gap. The film valve is disposed in the pump chamber. The film valve is in contact with the vibrating plate and the flow path forming member when a pressure in the central space is lower than a pressure in the outer edge space.

The present relation relates to the technological field of compressors. Problem to be solved: The current reciprocating compressors valves arrangements includes valves whose flexion area suffer from direct interference of the body disposed immediately over said valve. Such feature, besides damaging de valve movement, further causes wear phenomena on the flexion areas of the valve, which can result in critical fault of the valve and consequently of the compressor. Resolution of the problem: It is revealed a valve arrange whose end valve capable of moving includes a flexion area previously defined and intentionally misaligned with any contact area of the body immediately disposed over the valve.

An apparatus for a compressor head assembly with a discharge valve comprises a valve plate having a first face and a second face, wherein at least one cavity is located on the second face and a reed valve assembly sized to be contained in the at least one cavity. The reed valve assembly comprises a reed valve plate with at least one orifice, the reed valve plate selected according to a rated compressor displacement a retainer portion; and a reed retained by the retainer portion proximate to the reed valve plate and oriented to inhibit air flow through the at least one orifice in a closed state. The reed valve assembly is removably secured to the valve plate to facilitate changing the characteristics of the reed valve assembly without changing the valve plate.

A linear compressor includes: a frame comprising a body portion, a flange portion extending from a front side of the body portion along a radial direction of the body portion, and a bearing communication hole that is in fluid communication with a front surface of the flange portion and an inner circumferential surface of the body portion, a cylinder coupled to the body portion, a piston that is disposed in the cylinder and that is configured to reciprocate along an axial direction of the cylinder, and a valve member that is disposed at the frame and that is configured to open and close the bearing communication hole based on a pressure of air between the cylinder and the piston.

A cylinder head cover for a coolant compressor, wherein the cylinder head cover is attachable to a cylinder head arrangement in order to form a hollow space for receiving a coolant compressed by the piston, wherein the cylinder head arrangement comprises a valve plate attached to the cylinder housing and having an outlet opening and an outlet valve, which closes the outlet opening in cycles and consists of a valve spring and a stop plate for delimiting an opening movement of the valve spring. In order to achieve a cost-efficient production and installation of the cylinder head cover while assuring a secure support of the stop plate, it is provided that the cylinder head cover can comprise at least two contact surfaces for supporting stop plates of different outlet valves in order to adjust different opening positions of the valve springs of the different outlet valves.
