That seems very similar to the Norge Rollator compressor from very old refrigerators.

As an alternative approach to compressed air I wonder if one could use a catalyst as fuel, meaning the controlled mixture of two chemicals to produce sufficient quantities of gas under pressure on demand instead of storing the stored energy in a large high pressure tank. I suspect some people might feel queasy about driving a vehicle with so much air pressure stored on-board. For example mixing baking soda and vinegar produces CO2. I wonder if an equivalent and economical chemistry could be exploited. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
