Looking at some Youtube videos where these compressors are dismantled
the working parts mostly seem to be the same generic design, possibly
all produced in the same couple of Chinese factories.

Its a common misconception that Chinese items that look alike are
produced in the same factories. Having spend several years involved in
sourcing product from China which involved visiting Chinese factories I
can erasure you items that appear outwardly to be the same can vary
enormously in quality and be produced by 100s of different factories.

Does that mean there is no copyright on things the Chinese design? Or
several factories owned by the same people producing the same design, but
to different standards?
