ABSTRACT:
An assembly is disclosed for supplying compressed air to both an engine and an air suspension of a motor vehicle. The assembly comprises a direct current electric motor, a centrifugal air pump, and a piston pump. The motor has a shaft extending outwardly from opposite sides of the motor, with the centrifugal pump being driven by one end of the shaft and the piston pump being driven by the other end of the shaft. The centrifugal pump produces high volumes of air at low pressure required by the engine, while the piston pump produces low volumes of air at high pressure required by the air suspension. Bypass valves are provided to selectively divert the air provided by the pumps to the atmosphere.
