Radial piston compressor and method for the assembly of a radial piston compressor

Abstract

A radial piston compressor comprises a compressor unit and a drive device for driving the compressor unit, wherein the compressor unit includes at least two piston-and-cylinder-bore assemblies, preferably a plurality of piston-and-cylinder-bore assemblies, which are arranged radially around an eccentric shaft, wherein the eccentric shaft is driven by the drive device, wherein each piston-and-cylinder-bore assembly includes a piston, wherein the radial piston compressor, in particular the compressor unit, includes a piston guide ring, wherein the pistons are in contact, in particular in positive engagement, with the piston guide ring, wherein the piston guide ring is elastic, in particular elastic in the radial direction, at least in parts, preferably completely.
