Abstract
A fluid pressure intensifier device particularly suited for intensifying the pressure of a gas has a plurality of piston and cylinder compression stages of sequentially reducing volume connected by flow passages (FIG. 5b) for conducting fluid to be pressure intensified sequentially through the compression stages. Individual pressure fluid powered driving mechanisms for each piston or cylinder compression stage comprise driving piston and cylinder assemblies controlled to operate in sequence by a rotatable port plate. The port plate is rotatable by a positive displacement pressure fluid motor actuated by the pressure fluid powering the driving piston and cylinder assemblies, the outer gear of the motor being constituted by the rotatable port plate.
