Research on a Novel Miniature Air Compressor Generating both Compressed Air and Vacuum

Jian Hai Han, Jie Zhang, Dong Liao Fu, Zhigang Hu

Abstract

A new kind of miniature air compressor is proposed in this paper. This compressor can produce both compressed air and vacuum. The system structure, operating principle and experimental characteristics of the novel miniature air compressor are described in detail. The experimental results prove that the shift between air compressor mode and vacuum pump mode is possible and the design of system structure is appropriate.
