US Patent 11193482 Air compressing apparatus and control method

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an air compressing apparatus capable of establishing a sufficient air-filling rate while reducing noise at the initiation of operations. To solve this problem, in the present invention, the air compressing apparatus comprises a compressor body that compresses air, a motor that drives the compressor body, an inverter that controls the rotation speed of the motor, a control circuit connected to the inverter, and a pressure sensor that detects the pressure of air compressed in the compressor body, wherein the control circuit controls operation of the compressor body by operating at a low speed activation mode that operates the compressor body at a low speed rotational frequency lower than a maximum rotational speed when the air compressing apparatus is activated, and on the basis of a pressure value detected by the pressure sensor and elapsed time from activation, switching from the low speed activation mode to a normal operating mode that operates at variable frequencies including a maximum rotational frequency.
