Various human activities require various devices for their implementation. For quite a long time, compressors are widely used in industry and in everyday life, which are devices whose main job is to compress and supply various gases under pressure. Gases injected can be different. The most common and familiar to everyone is air (devices for painting various surfaces), refrigerant vapors (used in every household refrigerator). Let's talk about air compressors - the most common assistants to many craftsmen who work in various industries. Take at least the car service industry. What could be more convenient than pumping up wheels with a compressor or evenly painting parts of a car evenly, using the same irreplaceable assistant for supplying paint under pressure ... Indeed, there are many applications to the compressor.
The industry offers many similar devices of various types, for the use of which it is enough to read in the operating instructions how to connect the compressor and understand how the compressor works - and that’s it, you can begin to complete the tasks for which the device was purchased. Perhaps the only drawback of compressors on the market is their rather high price. Sometimes the cost of the device is too high and will never pay off, due to the fact that the compressor will not be used as often and not as intensively as the manufacturer assumed during its design. In this case, you can make a compressor yourself - in fact it is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance, and the manufacturing costs are almost zero in almost all cases, because all the necessary components for manufacturing a compressor can be found in every garage. Below will be presented one of the easiest way to make a compressor yourself.
This method is useful to car owners, many of whom know how important it is to have a compressor for painting a car. But few know that making a compressor yourself is very simple. The device of any compressor consists of an engine, the main purpose of which is to pump air into the tank and the tank itself with a valve. The air in the tank is under pressure, and its excess is discharged through the valve.
Why is this needed? Perhaps everyone knows that when painting, a very important point is the factor of uniformly applying a layer of paint on the surface, and this requires maintaining a constant pressure in the spray gun. It is for maintaining pressure that a compressor made of an old automobile tire with a chamber and a pump is useful.
To make the compressor yourself in the chamber, you need to cut a hole in which the pump's nipple will be glued. It turns out one nipple with a nipple, the purpose of which is to pump air into the chamber. In addition, there is one outlet nipple, already without a nipple, for connecting a spray hose.
Pressure adjustment is carried out by the method of practical application of a homemade blower together with a paint sprayer by spraying paint onto a wall. When the desired pressure level is found, you just need to disconnect the pump hose so that the pressure level does not change when you press the sprayer. At this, the manufacture of a homemade compressor can be considered finished. It should only be taken into account that the camera will jump on the floor, so it must be prudently tied.
We hope that the above method of manufacturing an assistant when painting will help many motorists who do not want to overpay for the necessary tool.
