  • Patent number: 12529375
    Abstract: A compressor has a piston that has a piston ring groove in an outer circumferential surface formed of a curved surface and reciprocates while rocking in a cylinder, a piston ring that is mounted in the piston ring groove and slides on an inner circumferential surface of the cylinder, and a crankshaft that reciprocates the piston through a connecting rod. A center axis of the cylinder is disposed at a position separate from a rotation axis of the crankshaft. A rotation stopper for the piston ring is disposed in the piston ring groove. Joint gaps of the piston ring are located on a side of the outer circumferential surface of the piston pressed against the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder in a compression process.
