Abstract: An air compressor system is disclosed that includes a housing sized to enclose an air compressor pump as well as a dryer structured to remove moisture from air that is compressed by the compressor pump. The air compressor pump may be intermittently placed into operation, but the dryer itself is structured in one form to continuously maintain a heat exchanger in a desired temperature range in anticipation of operation of the air compressor pump. The heat exchanger of the dryer can include sufficient thermal mass such that a refrigerant pump of the dryer need not be operated continuously in anticipation of operation of the air compressor pump. While a cooling air flow can be created by operation of the air compressor pump, when the air compressor pump is not operated a cooling fan can be used provide cooling to the heat generating components of the dryer.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种空气压缩机系统，其包括尺寸设计成封闭空气压缩机泵的壳体以及被构造成从压缩机泵压缩的空气中除去水分的干燥器。 空气压缩机泵可以间歇地投入运行，但是干燥器本身被构造成一种形式，以期望空气压缩机泵的运行，以将热交换器连续地保持在期望的温度范围内。 干燥器的热交换器可以包括足够的热质量，使得干燥机的制冷剂泵不需要在空气压缩机泵的运行期间连续地操作。 虽然可以通过空气压缩机泵的操作产生冷却空气流，但是当空气压缩机泵不工作时，可以使用冷却风扇来为干燥器的发热部件提供冷却。
