Abstract:
A reciprocating compressor of unlubricating type equipped with a cooling device including a cooling fan beneath a motor and provided with four gas compression means having a cylinder and a piston, wherein the pistons of each gas compression means are cooperated therewith by converting a rotating motion of a crankpin of a crankshaft provided on an electric drive source via two yokes having a phase difference of 90 degrees therebetween to a reciprocating motion by a scotch yoke mechanism, characterized in that when sucked gas is compressed by each gas compression means and the flows of compressed gases from each gas compression means are joined to one place by connecting tubes so as to be discharged, the lengths of each connecting tube are set to given lengths such that pressure waves of the compressed gases compete with each other at the joining point for a time period encompassing one rotation of the crankpin, whereby a pulsation resulting from gas flow discharged in concentration is decreased.
