Cylinder nikintu cyingenzi kigizwe nubunini bwa compression.Ibisabwa kuri silinderi: imbaraga zihagije, gukomera no kwambara birwanya;Ibihe byiza byo gukonjesha;Kurwanya gutembera guto (umwanya munini uhagije wo gutembera mu kirere hamwe n’ahantu hashyirwa indege);Kugabanya ingano yerekana;Ongera ushyire mu gaciro ingano yicyumba cya valve kandi ugabanye umuvuduko wumuvuduko wumwuka.Ibikoresho rusange: icyuma.

Amashanyarazi agizwe nicyumba cyumuyaga cyumuyaga, umuyoboro wamazi, guhagarika silinderi, umutwe wa silinderi, nibindi ntabisanzwe bihari.Ukurikije uburyo bwibikorwa, hari uburyo butatu bwuburyo: ubwoko bumwe bwibikorwa, ubwoko bubiri bwibikorwa nubwoko butandukanye;Ukurikije uburyo bwo gukonjesha, hariho gukonjesha ikirere no gukonjesha amazi.

Ihame ryimiterere yikirere cyumuyaga kuri silinderi: ahantu hashyizwe na valve yumuyaga ni nini, ni ukuvuga ko agace kanyuze mu kirere ari nini, igihombo cyo guhangana nacyo ni gito, kuyishyiraho no kuyitaho biroroshye, kandi ingano yo gukuraho ni nto.

. imbaraga zikora kuri piston no kunoza imikorere ya volumetricike ya silinderi.Ubukungu bwa compressor nini nini nini ziciriritse zikora ubudahwema igihe kirekire ni ngombwa cyane, bityo ibyiciro byatoranijwe ukurikije aho bikora neza, hamwe nikigereranyo cyo kwikuramo kurwego rwose ruri hagati ya 2-4. Inteko ya silinderi na piston ihuye na buri nkoni ihuza byitwa inkingi. Gukoresha inkingi nyinshi yogusenyera birashobora kuringaniza imbaraga za inertia zingaruka za compressor burundu cyangwa ahanini, koroshya imiterere ya buri nkingi kandi gabanya ingufu za gaze ntarengwa yinkingi. Ariko, kwiyongera kwumubare winkingi bizagora imiterere rusange ya compressor naongera umubare wibice nibigize.
