ABSTRACT:
A compact, balanced and lightweight air compressor unit for a railroad vehicle which includes a motor-driven compressor, a suction strainer and suction silencer. The compressor and motor are interconnected by an intermediate hollow flanged mounting member which has a cross-sectional dimension that is smaller than the cross-sectional dimension of the motor and compressor. The suction strainer is located in a space between the motor and compressor and is attached to one side of the intermediate hollow mounting member while the suction silencer is located in a space between the motor and compressor and is attached to the other side of the intermediate hollow mounting member to form a substantially balanced structure which is suspended to the underside of the floor of the railroad vehicle by a plurality of resilient bumper connectors.
