  • Publication number: 20240125357
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an air foil journal bearing in which air is introduced between a foil and a rotor rotating at high speed and generates pressure to support a radial load of the rotor and allow the rotor to rotate smoothly, and more particularly, to a housing fixing structure of an air foil journal bearing that improves durability against external impact or vibration by restricting an axial movement of a bump by means of two opposite ends of the bump and a top foil fixing portion.

  • Publication number: 20230327524
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an air compressor which improves the space utilization of a filter unit, and reduces the number of constituent parts constituting the filter unit, thereby improving assemblability, reducing manufacturing costs, and minimizing the size of the air compressor itself. The air compressor comprises: a housing; a rotating shaft extending in the longitudinal direction inside the housing; a compression unit disposed in front of the rotating shaft and rotated by the rotating shaft to compress and discharge air that flows in; a motor unit which rotates the rotating shaft; a control board which controls the motor unit; a filter unit which supplies external electrical power to the control board and filters the noise of the electrical power; and a bus bar assembly which transfers the electrical power from the control board to the motor unit.

  • Publication number: 20230106824
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an air compressor for a vehicle and, more specifically, to an air compressor for a vehicle wherein the entire operation of the air compressor may be stabilized by a cooling unit in which a portion of the compressed air that moves through a connection pipe conveying primarily compressed air exchanges heat with a cooling water flowing part to cool the driving unit.
