I expect the compressor will prove easier to launch because it represents few product variations and is quite easy to make with very few parts.

I have not yet approached anyone concerning the Cyclops-Compressor, nor has it been featured in any publications. It is being debuted to the world for the first time on this new WebSite.

There is no similar device as simple in design or as easy to make. The smoothness and simplicity will earn it a marked penetration into the compressor and pump industry with the additional ability to function as a very efficient engine.

Pumps, compressors and motors have been around for a very long time. It is an industry that does not see much significant change. The industry prefers the efficiency of the rotary approach but often sticks with the piston approach for the sake of reliability, especially for high-powered or high-efficiency applications. Occasionally, a new rotary design is created, but almost without exception they have short-comings, usually in the areas of expense and reliability.

  • Rotary compressors can be far more expensive that piston types.
  • There is "vane chatter" due to the spring-loaded vanes bouncing at the intake and exhaust ports.
  • Construction often based on complex yet critical shapes and so makes manufacture expensive.
  • Each release after compression causes sudden load changes and a "burping" results.

The Cyclops-Compressor is smoother and less expensive to make than competing designs and offers a flexibility that is unmatched ....

  • It is very simple to make because it is based only on circles and ovals. There are no odd shapes to consider (as in a Wankel Rotary).
  • It has 8 compressions per revolution so it is very smooth with minimal "burping".
  • The vanes are not spring loaded so there is no "vane chatter".
  • There is no off-centered motion, so the rotating mass stays smoothly balanced.
  • The design is size independent and flexible enough to easily configure any overall size, compression, bore or stroke desired.

The Cyclops introduction will begin with several prototype variations depicting different products. I expect an immediate penetration in the area of air-conditioning and heat-pump compressors.
