Abstract
Apparatus for the generation of compressed air includes a compressor, a motor for driving the compressor, a supply source of liquid lubricant for cooling the compressor, a storage container for the liquid lubricant, devices for separating the lubricant from the compressed air and for cooling the separated lubricant, and devices for controlling and regulating the procedures effected by the apparatus in the generation of the compressed air. The invention is directed toward improvements wherein the storage container is constructed as a pressure vessel for receiving and collecting the lubricant, wherein the compressor, which includes a high-pressure-conducting housing section, is releasably incorporated in a pressure-tight manner in the pressure vessel at least to the extent of the high-pressure-conducting housing section and wherein the motor, the lubricant cooling devices and the control devices are located on the exterior of the pressure vessel so as to be arranged to be essentially adjusted to the contours of the pressure vessel.
