Portable Air Compressors

How long can an air compressor run a drill?

Admin — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 14:04:04 +0000

I was just wondering if they make an air compressor that is efficient enough to run a pneumatic drill constantly without stopping the drill. Or is the amount of air used by the drill and bleed air more than an air compressor can output? If not, which air compressor is the best?

Mini air compressor Nerf gun build question?

Admin — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 19:18:34 +0000

I was thinking of making a nerf gun out of some stuff and instead of a hand pump to use a mini air compressor like you would see for a car tire kit like the one in the link Below. I just don’t know how i could connect one of those to a battery setup or what i would need to do so.

Air Compressor http://www.amazon.com/250-PSI-Mini-Air-Compressor/dp/B0018NJQLW
i found this online as well.

http://www.amazon.com/Palmgren-92101-Tankless-Cordless-Compressor/dp/B00068U8BM

yeah i was planning on useing something a little more sturdy then a coke bottle but i get the point lol. triggering the correct amount of air to come out is going to be a problem i think…. my main questions is what i would need to turn that crapp $17 compressor into a battery operated model.

Makita MAC700 Big Bore 2.0 HP Air Compressor

Admin — Thu, 14 Jul 2011 08:18:10 +0000

High output: Cast iron pump with big bore cylinder and piston, combined with greater bore and stroke, delivers maximum performance
Low noise: Substantially lower noise levels with a large 1,720 – RPM pump-enabling greater displacement at lower RPM
Low Amp Draw: Reduces incidences of tripped breakers and voltage drop that can cause premature motor failure
Oil lubricated: Cooler running pump, minimizes wear
One-year manufacturer’s warranty

Amazon.com Review
This one’s a bit of a paradox: The do-it-yourselfer might pass by this compressor in favor of an oil-free, no-maintenance model, but it’s actually one of the best on the market for the homeowner, hobbyist and weekend warrior.

There are three factors that made us form this opinion. First, it’s the quietest compressor we’ve ever encountered. It’s a remarkable departure in a genre of tools that normally force you to suspend conversation while it’s cycling. The MAC700 puts out 80 decibels, according to the folks at Makita, and when you compare that to the 90 and up you get from most units, that’s practically a hum. So we like this for household use, especially in a basement shop.

Next on our list of pluses for the DIY-er is the low-amp draw, and with that, fewer trips to the breaker box and less chance of premature motor failure. The other feature that won us over is the easy-on-the-hand lever handle ball valve that saves your knuckles when you drain the tank. It’s also got a really fast cycle, so by the time you take a sip of water, you’re ready to work again.

It’s made like a champ, with a roll-bar handle that protects your investment, a cast-iron cylinder for durability and an oil sight glass that makes maintenance a breeze.–Kris Jensen-Van HesteAmazon.com Product Description
Makita’s 2.0 HP Air Compressor is equipped with Makita’s Big Bore engineered pump cylinder and piston for higher output, less noise and improved job site performance. The MAC700 delivers industrial power and results with improved durability under tough job site conditions.

2.0 HP with Big Bore Engineered Pump
The MAC700 is powered by a 2.0 HP motor. The Makita Big Bore engineered pump with cast iron cylinder has greater bore and stroke for increased compression, faster recovery and less noise. The cast iron construction is engineered for increased durability even under tough job site conditions. The MAC700 has an oil-lubricated pump and is equipped with a large automotive style filter for increased air intake and greater efficiency. The Big Bore oil-lubricated pump is also more efficient: the MAC700 runs cooler and at half the RPM of most competitive units, resulting in greater motor and pump life and lower noise. The 2.6-gallon tank sustains an operating pressure of 130 PSI, and delivers 40PSI (3.8 CFM) and 90 PSI (3.3 CFM). The low AMP draw reduces instances of tripped breakers and voltage drop that can cause premature motor failure. The roll bar handle provides portability and additional protection, helping it withstand harsh jobsite environments. Additional features include a convenient oil drain and oil sight glass, a tank drain valve that supersedes standard petcock design for easier maintenance, and finned discharge tubing that dissipates heat more efficiently.

Versatile Design for a Range of Applications
The MAC700 is engineered for low noise, high output and less maintenance, and delivers industrial power and results with improved durability under tough job site conditions. The MAC700 is just another example of Makita’s commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering.

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.

An mini air compressor may be used to provide a hand-held tool with pneumatic power. The mini air compressor is part of an apparatus that further includes a motor for driving the mini air compressor and a tank for storing compressed air. A drive assembly operatively interconnects the motor with the mini air compressor, and is mounted on the tank with the motor and the mini air compressor. The drive assembly may include a pulley, a flywheel, and a linkage structure that cooperate to reciprocate a piston within the mini air compressor upon rotation of an output shaft at the motor. The reciprocating piston pumps compressed air into the tank. A pneumatic power hose extends from the tank to the pneumatically powered tool. In some cases the tank is provided with wheels and a handle so that the entire apparatus is portable.

In accordance with the present invention, an apparatus includes a motor with an output shaft. A solitary mini air compressor is linked to the output shaft so as to be driven by the output shaft. The mini air compressor contains a piston in a cylinder. A first fan is mounted on the output shaft to direct cooling air to the motor. A second fan is mounted on the output shaft to direct cooling air to the mini air compressor.

An apparatus as defined in claim 2 wherein said mini air compressor is a solitary mini air compressor driven by said motor, and further comprising a first fan mounted on said output shaft to direct cooling air to said motor, and a second fan mounted on said output shaft to direct cooling air to said mini air compressor.

The present invention relates to an mini air compressor, and particularly relates to an mini air compressor that is mounted on a tank.
