ABSTRACT:
A lightweight, miniaturized, portable air compressor of the reciprocating piston type. Drive is imparted to the reciprocating piston by means of an input shaft which rotates a belt crank to convert rotary motion to reciprocating motion. The compressor housing has an integral bracket for mounting a DC motor and gear train coupling the DC motor output to the compressor input shaft. A pair of one way valves regulate the intake of air prior to compression and the exiting of compressed air from the piston chamber for introduction therein to a flexible air hose. The compressor is secured within a recess provided in the tray portion of a housing comprised of hingedly connected lid and tray members. A large hollow recess is provided for storage of the elongated air hose and an elongated power cord. Shallow recesses are provided for positioning and aligning the innermost portions of the air hose and electrical power cord when these members are unwound and extended outside of the exterior of the housing during the time that the compressor is in operation. The compressor is designed to operate when the housing is in the fully closed position, appropriate recesses being provided by the cooperating mating edges of the lid and tray portions to provide for free movement of air into and out of the housing and to allow the air hose and electrical power cord to extend away from the closed housing without interfering with their normal use and handling.
