Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air compressors, and in particular to a heat sink for an air compressor. Background Art

[0002] An air compressor is a mechanical device that sucks in a large amount of air and compresses it, reducing its volume and increasing its pressure.

[0003] In the compression chamber of the air compressor, heat is generated when the air is compressed, and the friction of the mechanical parts inside the air compressor also generates heat. This heat will cause the temperature of the air compressor to rise. High temperature will affect the air compression efficiency and cause the performance of the air compressor to decline, thus requiring more energy to complete the same work, resulting in lower compression efficiency of the air compressor.
