Definitions

  • This invention relates to positive displacement pump systems and is more particularly concerned with such systems in which deliveries from two positive displacement pump sources are available to be fed to a common supply passage.
  • a positive displacement pump system having first and second delivery passages for pumped fluid, a main discharge passage connected to receive a flow from the first delivery passage and to receive through a non-return valve a flow from the second delivery passage, a control orifice disposed in the main discharge passage at a location to receive the combined said flows, and a control valve for apportioning the flow from the second delivery passage between the main discharge passage and overspill porting and controlling the by-passing of a proportion of the flow from the first delivery passage through the overspill porting, said control valve comprising a valve member slidably mounted in a bore in a valve body, one end of which bore is in communication with the main discharge passage at a location upstream of said control orifice, a spring which is disposed in a spring chamber in the valve body and which urges the valve member towards said one end of the bore, said spring chamber communicating with the main discharge passage at a location downstream of the control orifice, said valve member having a first metering land between
  • the overspill porting comprises an annular overspill port extending about the valve bore, and the edge of the overspill port nearer the first land and the end of the first land nearer said one end of the valve bore are so shaped in relation to each other that on movement of the valve member against the spring loading, the communication between the by-pass port and said one end of the valve bore is, initially at least, less than fully annular as the valve member moves against the spring loading.
  • the progressive increase in the area of communication towards fully annular communication in these constructions may be achieved by providing peripheral notches in the said end face of the first and/or the second land or otherwise making the periphery of such end face non-circular. Alternatively notches may be cut in axial end edge of the port.
  • the system comprises a positive displacement pump 10 and in this instance of the well-known roller type and has two inlet ports 12, 13 and two outlet ports 14, 15 from which the pumped fluid flows into first and second delivery passages 16, 17 respectively.
  • the downstream end of delivery passage 16 is in direct communication with the upstream end of a main discharge passage 18.
  • the downstream end of the second delivery passage 17 communicates with the discharge passage 18 through a non-return valve 19.
  • a discharge orifice 20 is provided in the discharge passage 18.
  • the control valve 11 comprises a spool valve member 22 slidably mounted in a bore 24 in a body part 26.
  • One end of the bore 24 opens to the main discharge passage 18 upstream of the orifice 20.
  • the other end of the bore forms a chamber 27 housing a spring 28 which urges the valve member into abutment with a wall of the main discharge passage 18.
  • the chamber 27 communicates through a duct 25 with the passage 18 at a location downstream of the orifice 20 so that the pressure drop across the orifice opposes the force of the spring 28.
  • the valve member has first and second lands 29, 30 of which, in the position shown in Figure 1, the former is disposed between the main discharge passage and an annular overspill port 31 in the bore 24. Port 31 communicates through a passage 32 with a passage 33 leading to the inlet port 12. Land 30 is axially spaced from land 29 and, in the position shown in Figure 1, obstructs an annular by-pass port 34 which is in communication with the second delivery passage 17 at a location upstream of the non-return valve 19.
  • the lands 29,30 have in the periphery of their end portions nearer the main discharge passage a number of notches 35, 36 respectively opening to the end face.
  • Figure 1 shows the valve in its position in low-speed operation of the pump.
  • the pressure in the main discharge passage is low, and the lands 29 and 30 respectively prevent communication between the discharge passage 18 and the by-pass port 34 respectively and the overspill port 31, so that the whole flow from the second outlet port 15 flows through the non-return valve 19 and joins the flow from the first outlet port 14 in the main discharge passage leading to the point of utilisation.
  • the pump speed increases, assuming for the moment that the pressure at the downstream side of orifice 20 remains constant, the increase in pressure at the upstream side of the orifice urges the valve member to move against the spring force as shown in Figure 2.
  • valve member causes a sharp fall in the pressure in the second delivery passage 17 and a consequent reduction in the power requirement of the pump. Further increases in pump speed move the valve member further rightward permitting increased flow of fluid from the first delivery passage to pass through notches 35 to the overspill port 34.
  • the two lands 29, 30 of the valve member have fully planar end faces and notches 37, 38 are instead formed in the axial end faces 31b, 34b of the ports 31, 34 which co-operate with the lands in controlling the opening of the ports.
  • the notches 37, 38 operate in conjunction with the ends of the lands 29, 30 in exactly the same way as the notches 35, 36 operate in conjunction with the edges 31a of the ports in the arrangement of Figure 1.
  • the orifice 20 operates to maintain a constant flow to the point of utilisation, and if at any stage of operation, the pressure downstream of the orifice 20 falls, the resulting drop in pressure in chamber 27 causes the valve member to move to increase the amount of fluid passed to the overspill port. Conversely if the pressure downstream of orifice 20 rises, the resulting rise in pressure in chamber 27 causes the valve member to move to reduce the amount of fluid passed to the overspill port.
