Abstract

A compressor comprises a first cylinder for compressing a fluid and a second cylinder for driving a piston in the first cylinder. The first cylinder comprises a chamber with first and second ends. The piston is reciprocally movable along an axial direction of the chamber for compressing a fluid. Three or more first ports at the first end include at least one first inlet port and at least one first outlet port. Three or more second ports at the second end include at least one second inlet port and at least one second outlet port. Each port has an axial direction parallel to the axial direction of the chamber. A check valve is connected inline with each port along the axial direction of the port.
