A tandem free-piston machine has two movable trains comprising drive and compressor pistons. Synchronizing means are provided between these trains and include an elastic member to absorb at least partly any momentary difference in the forces to which the movable trains are subjected. The synchronizing means may be rack and pinion, or lever and connecting rod means. The elastic member may be a torsionally elastic shaft connecting two pinions, or a bendable elastic bar constituting one of said levers. |
