With the working process of the compression pump, the division space in the exhaust compression state is isolated from the fluid outlet and the exhaust compression stage is ended, while the division space in the intake expansion state continues to intake air from the fluid inlet, and at the moment, the working cavity becomes a single working space again and is maintained. Along with the working process of the compression pump, the volume of the working cavity reaches the maximum, the air inflow reaches the maximum, at the moment, the working cavity is isolated from the fluid inlet and is communicated with the fluid outlet, and the working cavity is still a single working space; along with the working process of the compression pump, the working cavity enters an exhaust compression stage and keeps a single working space state before the corresponding cylinder sleeve concave group part and the corresponding rotor convex group part are in close contact with each other; along with the working process of the compression pump, the single working space is separated into two independent divided spaces because the corresponding cylinder sleeve concave group part and the corresponding rotor convex group part start to enter a mutually close contact state, wherein one divided space starts to be communicated with the fluid inlet, and air is introduced from the minimum volume; the other of the partitioned spaces is in communication with the fluid outlet and is in a state of continuing to discharge the gas and compress it.
Through the technical scheme, the working cavity which is difficult to completely remove gas and is positioned between the adjacent 2 connecting rods is improved from a single working space mode to a mixed working mode in which the single working space capable of basically and completely removing gas and the working space are isolated into 2 independent partitioned spaces, so that the extremely small clearance volume can be obtained, and the compression ratio of the compression pump can be greatly increased.
