I've never seen anything specific but its an interesting idea!

Unfortuantely compressing air is a very inefficient process. I would avoid it.

Hydraulics would be much more efficient. The unfortunate problem with hydraulics is lack of energy density. You need a large accumulator to store reasonable amounts of energy.

What were you thinking of using the stored hydraulic power to do?
