Abstract: The invention provides a twin-shaft, dry-running rotary piston machine (1) comprising two rotary pistons (8) supported in a housing (2) via shafts (4) and roller bearings (6) with rolling elements, said rotary pistons are horizontally arranged and mesh with each other in opposite directions, so as to define a conveying chamber; two oil chambers (10) arranged in said housing (2) at opposite front sides of the conveying chamber in the area of the roller bearings (6) and provided to be at least in part filled with lubricating oil, two splash elements (12), with per oil chamber (10) one splash element (12) being arranged on the shafts (4) in such a manner that every shaft (4) carries a total of only one splash element (12); and at least two connection channels (14) connecting the two oil chambers (10) with each other.

Abstract: The invention proposes a method of operating a rotary compressor (1) with twisted rotors (10, 20) for compressing gaseous media, in which a gas-dynamic pulse is generated in the delivery chamber (4) flowed through in each case from an inflow side (4?) to an outlet side (4?) in the longitudinal direction of the delivery chamber by rapid separation from an area of enlarged volume (V), and a closing time (tS) from separation of the relevant delivery chamber (4) flowed through in the longitudinal direction of the delivery chamber from the area of enlarged volume (V) to closure of the relevant delivery chamber (4) on the inflow side (4?) is such that the filling level of the delivery chamber (4) is increased by pulse charging.
