Mini air compressor package

Mini air compressor package

An mini air compressor package that includes a pancake air tank, which has a pair of convex tank members that are coupled to one another about an equator of the pancake air tank, a motor and a compressor that is driven by the motor. The mini air compressor is coupled in fluid communication with the pancake air tank. The motor and the compressor are arranged relative to the pancake air tank such that a plane taken through the equator of the pancake air tank passes through the motor and the compressor.

An mini air compressor package comprising: a pancake air tank having a pair of convex tank members that are coupled to one another about an equator of the pancake air tank; a motor; and a compressor that is driven by the motor, the compressor being coupled in fluid communication with the pancake air tank; wherein the motor and the compressor are arranged relative to the pancake air tank such that a plane taken through the equator of the pancake air tank passes through the motor and the mini air compressor.
An mini air compressor package comprising: a pancake air tank having a pair of convex tank members that are coupled to one another about an equator of the pancake air tank; a handle coupled to the pancake air tank, the handle having a widened C-shape; a motor; and a compressor driven by the motor, the mini air compressor being coupled in fluid communication with the pancake air tank; wherein the motor and the compressor are disposed between the pancake air tank and the handle.
Small mini air compressors are frequently employed around the home, workshop and work site. A number of very small and lightweight compressors are available for home, recreation and other light duty uses such as inflating sports or recreation equipment or for emergency use in inflating a car tire. Such tasks require relatively low-pressure compressed air and/or relatively low airflow rates. Weight is kept low and portability is maximized in these designs by use of small, low volume and/or low-pressure mini air compressors powered by small lightweight electric motors. Additionally, significant weight, size and cost savings are achieved by the omission of a high-pressure vessel (i.e., air tank), as well as an oil lubrication system.
