Abstract: An air compressor is received in an accommodation box and contains a body, a cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism. The body includes a first positioning orifice and a second positioning orifice. The cylinder is connected on the body and communicates with an air storage holder. The motor is fixed on the body, a small gear is received in the first positioning orifice, and a connection seat is accommodated in the first orifice. The transmission mechanism actuates a piston to move in the cylinder reciprocately so as to produce compressed airs. The motor includes at least one locking extension for engaging the motor with the body, hence the motor is fixed on the body securely without using any screws.
