Abstract

A cylinder block assembly for a reciprocating pump includes a block body having a piston chamber that receives a piston of the reciprocating pump. The cylinder block assembly has an outlet valve assembly positioned within the block body that is positioned in fluid communication with the piston chamber. An outlet valve retainer retains the outlet valve relative to the piston chamber. The cylinder block assembly includes an inlet valve assembly extending through a side of the block body to the piston chamber. An inlet valve retainer also retains the inlet valve assembly relative to the piston chamber. A discharge passage extends from the outlet valve assembly to another side of the block body. A portion of the discharge passage extends between the inlet valve assembly and the inlet valve retainer.

Claims (20)

1. A cylinder block assembly for a reciprocating pump, comprising:
a block body defining a piston chamber adapted to receive a piston of a reciprocating pump;
an outlet valve assembly positioned within the block body and in fluid communication with the piston chamber;
an outlet valve retainer that retains the outlet valve relative to the piston chamber;
an inlet valve assembly positioned within the block body and in fluid communication with the piston chamber;
an inlet valve retainer that retains the inlet valve assembly relative to the piston chamber; and a discharge passage extending from the outlet valve assembly to a side of the block body, a portion of the discharge passage extending between the inlet valve assembly and the inlet valve retainer.
2. The cylinder block assembly of claim 1, wherein the inlet valve retainer further comprises a first flange and a second flange connected by a column, the column extending though the discharge passage.
3. The cylinder block assembly of claim 2, wherein the first flange defines a first cross-sectional area and the second flange defines a second cross-sectional area, the first cross-sectional area being larger than the second cross-sectional area.
4. The cylinder block assembly of claim 3, wherein the column defines a third cross-sectional area that is smaller than both the first and second cross-sectional areas defined by the first and second flanges.
5. The cylinder block assembly of claim 2, wherein the inlet valve retainer further comprises a threaded member that matingly engages the block body and engages an upper surface of the first flange to retain the inlet valve assembly.
6. The cylinder block assembly of claim 2, wherein the discharge passage defines a passage height and the column of the inlet valve assembly has a longitudinal length that is substantially the same as the passage height.
7. The cylinder block assembly of claim 1, wherein the inlet valve retainer comprises a threaded valve cover secured to the block body and a spool-shaped member extending from the inlet valve assembly through the discharge passage to the valve cover.
8. The cylinder block assembly of claim 1, wherein the inlet valve assembly and the inlet valve retainer extend through the block body from an upper side of the block body to an inlet of the piston chamber located at a lower side of the block body.
9. The cylinder block assembly of claim 1, wherein the block body further comprises an inlet portion that houses the inlet valve assembly and an outlet portion that houses the outlet valve assembly, the outlet portion having a first sidewall that is adapted to connect to the reciprocating pump and a second sidewall connected to the inlet portion.
10. The cylinder block assembly of claim 9, wherein the discharge passage extends away from the first sidewall and through the inlet portion of the block body.
11. In a reciprocating pump assembly having a pump housing that houses a crankshaft, a plurality of pistons mechanically connected to the crankshaft for pumping a fluid through a cylinder block, the cylinder block defining a cylindrical piston chamber for each of the pistons that receives fluid from an inlet manifold and a fluid outlet that conveys fluid to an outlet manifold, the reciprocating pump, comprising:
an outlet valve associated with and being in fluid communication with each piston chamber defined by the cylinder block, which actuates along an outlet valve axis to an open position when a fluid pressure differential that exceeds a predetermined differential across the outlet valve;

an inlet valve extending through a side of the cylinder block portion to each of the piston chambers, which actuates along an inlet valve axis to an open position when a fluid pressure differential that exceeds a predetermined differential across the inlet valve, the inlet valve axis being parallel to and offset from the outlet valve axis;
a plurality of discharge passages extending from each outlet valve to the outlet manifold; and an inlet valve retainer for each of the inlet valves that retains the inlet valves relative to the piston chamber, each of the inlet valve retainers extending along one of the inlet valve axis and through one of the discharge passages.
12. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 11, wherein the inlet valve comprises a spring loaded valve having an actuating member that selectively engages an inlet of the piston chamber, and a spring member that biases the actuating member toward a closed position.
13. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 11, wherein the inlet valve retainer comprises a spool-shaped member with a first flange and a second flange connected by a column, so that the column extends through the discharge passage.
14. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 13, wherein the first flange defines a first cross-sectional area and the second flange defines a second cross-sectional area, the first cross-sectional area being larger than the second cross-sectional area.
15. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 14, wherein the inlet valve comprises a spring loaded valve having an actuating member that selectively engages an inlet of the piston chamber, and a spring member that engages the second flange in order to bias the actuating member toward a closed position.
16. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 13, wherein the discharge passage defines a passage height and the column of the inlet valve assembly has a longitudinal length that is substantially the same as the passage height.
17. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 13, wherein a lower surface of the second flange defines a portion of an inner surface of the piston chamber.
18. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 13, wherein an upper surface of the second flange and a lower surface of the first flange define upper and lower portions of an inner surface of each of the discharge passages.
19. A cylinder block assembly for a reciprocating pump, comprising:
a block body defining a piston chamber having an inlet and an outlet, the piston chamber being adapted to receive a piston of a reciprocating pump;
an inlet valve within an inlet passage extending through the block body to the piston chamber;
an inlet valve retainer comprising a first flange, a second flange and a column extending between the first and second flanges, the inlet valve being in engagement with the second flange;
a threaded member having a threaded profile formed on its outer circumference that engages a threaded profile on the block body that engages the first flange to retain the inlet valve retainer relative to the piston chamber; and a discharge passage extending from the outlet of the piston chamber to a side of the block body, a portion of the discharge passage extending around the column between the first and second flanges of the inlet valve retainer.
20. The reciprocating pump assembly of claim 19, wherein the first flange defines a first cross-sectional area and the second flange defines a second cross-sectional area, the first cross-sectional area being larger than the second cross-sectional area.
