Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a rotary vane pump, and in particular to a rotary vane pump which is usable in a power steering system of a motor vehicle.
- Designs of rotary vane pump are well known. These well known designs typically comprise a stator which has a cylindrical bore, and a rotor having a longitudinal axis about which the rotor rotates in the bore. Either the longitudinal axis of the bore is offset from the longitudinal axis of the rotor, or the bore has a contoured inner surface. The rotor has a number of circumferentially spaced, radially extending, slots therein. A vane is positioned in, and slidable in, each slot, with each vane being biased outwardly to engage the inner surface of the bore in the stator. A fluid inlet and a fluid outlet open into the bore. The arrangement is such that rotation of the rotor within the bore causes the vanes to reciprocate in their respective slots, and drives fluid from the inlet to the outlet. These designs, however, have a limitation with regard to efficiency. Typically a noise spike will be generated every ten rotations of the rotor. Increasing the number of vanes increases the efficiency of the pump, and increases the number of noise spikes, but the magnitude of the spikes is reduced (that is, the pump is quieter) . However, increasing the number of vanes increases the risk of breakdown or cracking of the rotor across the inner radial ends of the slots due to the pumping pressure. With these known designs, therefore, there has to be a trade-off between efficiency, noise, and the pumping pressure.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved design of rotary vane pump.
- A rotary vane pump in accordance with the present invention comprises a stator having a cylindrical outer surface; a rotor which is substantially annular and positioned around the stator to define a fluid chamber between the rotor and the stator, the rotor being rotatable about a longitudinal axis and having a number of radially extending slots therein; a vane slidably mounted in each slot and biased towards the fluid chamber and into engagement with the outer surface of the stator, the vanes reciprocating in their respective slots as the rotor rotates about the stator; a fluid inlet connecting with the fluid chamber; and a fluid outlet connecting with the fluid chamber.
- In one embodiment of the present invention, the stator can have a substantially circular cross-section of fixed diameter, with the longitudinal axis of the stator being offset from the longitudinal axis of the rotor. In another embodiment, the outer surface of the stator may be contoured to define a cam surface. The slots in the rotor are symmetrically situated around the rotor, but may be equally or variably spaced.
- The present invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which :-

- Referring to Figures 1 and 2 of the drawings, the rotary vane pump comprises a
housing 1 preferably of cast metallic material; a substantiallyannular rotor 2 positioned within the housing; astator 10 formed on apressure plate 3 and positioned within the rotor; and sixteenvanes 11 mounted incorresponding slots 12 in the rotor. Thehousing 1 is substantially cylindrical and defines a throughbore 17 of stepped diameter. The largeropen end 18 of thethrough bore 17 in thehousing 1 is closed by acover plate 6 which is secured to the housing byscrews 19. An O-ring seal 16 forms a substantially fluid-tight seal between thehousing 1 and thecover plate 6. - The
rotor 2 is integrally formed with aback plate 20 and adrive shaft 21 which extends out of the smalleropen end 22 of thethrough bore 17 in thehousing 1. Thedrive shaft 21 is rotatably mounted in thethrough bore 17 by abearing 4. Ahigh pressure seal 5 acts between thethrough bore 17 and thedrive shaft 21 to form a substantially fluid-tight seal at the smaller open end of the through bore. Therotor 2 is rotatably mounted in thethrough bore 17 by needle bearing 13 or a suitable bushing (such as a Babbitt bushing). Drive means (not shown) rotates therotor 2 about its longitudinal axis L. - The
pressure plate 3 is located in a predetermined position relative to thecover plate 6 by locatingpins 14 which locate the pressure plate within thehousing 1 with thestator 10 positioned inside therotor 2. Afluid chamber 24 is defined between therotor 2 and thestator 10. Acoil spring 15 acting between thepressure plate 3 and thecover plate 6 biases thepressure plate 3 towards therotor 2. Thestator 10 has an outer surface 23 (Figure 2) which is contoured to form a cam surface, and a longitudinal axis which is aligned with the longitudinal axis L of therotor 2. - The
slots 12 extend radially through therotor 2. A circumferentially extendinggroove 25 is formed in therotor 2 at the outer radial ends of theslots 12. Eachvane 11 is slidably mounted in its respective slot and is capable of reciprocating movement therein. Eachvane 11 protrudes out of itsrespective slot 12 and is biased by agarter spring 7 positioned in thegroove 25 into engagement with theouter surface 23 of thestator 10. The positioning of thevanes 11 is symmetrical about the longitudinal axis L of therotor 2, although the vanes are unequally spaced apart. - Referring to Figures 3 and 4, the
cover plate 6 comprises afluid inlet 26 which is connected to a fluid reservoir (not shown) and afluid outlet 27. A flow control valve (not shown) may be positioned in thefluid outlet 27. Asupercharge fluid passage 28 may interconnect theinlet 26 andoutlet 27. In theinner surface 29 of thecover plate 6 is formed anannular groove 30 which fluidly connects theinlet 26 to two low pressuredepressed areas 31 in the inner surface, and a centraldepressed area 32 fluidly connected bychannels 33 to two high pressuredepressed areas 34 and theoutlet 27. - Referring to Figure 8 and 9, the
outer surface 35 of thepressure plate 3 has two low pressure throughbores 36 and two high pressure throughbores 37 which align with the correspondingdepressed areas inner surface 29 of thecover plate 6 on assembly of the rotary vane pump. Further, theouter surface 35 has a centrally positioned closedbore 38 which aligns with the centraldepressed area 32 in thecover plate 6, and which is fluidly connected with the high pressure throughbores 37 by achannel 39 in theouter surface 35. On assembly, thecoil spring 15 is situated in the closedbore 38. Referring to Figures 7 and 8, theinner surface 40 of thepressure plate 3 has thestator 10 integrally formed thereon, achannel 41 therein for fluidly connecting the low pressure throughbores 36, and anannular channel 42 therein adjacent theouter edge 43 for the passage of high pressure fluid between theslots 12 in therotor 2 adjacent the outer radial end of the slots. The high pressure fluid acts on the vanes 11 (along with the garter spring 7) to bias the vanes into engagement with theouter surface 23 of thestator 10. - Referring to Figures 5 and 6, the
rotor 2 is shown with theback plate 20 and thedrive shaft 21, radially extendingslots 12, andcircumferential groove 25. A pair ofbores 44 extend through theback plate 20 and fluidly connect with radially extendingchannels 45 in the back plate to provide an additional passage for high pressure fluid from thefluid chamber 24 to the outer radial end of eachslot 12 to provide bias on thevanes 11 and a hydraulic balance of therotor 2 relative to thecover plate 6. - In operation, the
rotor 2 is driven by the drive means (not shown) to rotate about its longitudinal axis L relative to thehousing 1 andstator 10. As therotor 2 rotates with thevanes 11 in contact with theouter surface 23 of thestator 10, the vanes reciprocate within theslots 12, with the vanes being fully extended inwardly between the low pressure throughbores 36 and the high pressure throughbores 37 as the vanes move from the low pressure throughbores 36 towards the high pressure throughbores 37. Fluid at low pressure enters thefluid chamber 24 from the fluid reservoir (not shown) by way offluid inlet 26 and the low pressure throughbores 36. Thevanes 11 drive the fluid towards and out through the high pressure throughbores 37 to thefluid outlet 27, thereby increasing the pressure in the fluid. The pressurised fluid is used in a power steering system (not shown) of a motor vehicle. Excess fluid flow passes through thesupercharge fluid passage 28 to theinlet 26 to help to pressurise the fluid entering theflud chamber 24. - By positioning the
rotor 2 around thestator 10, the number ofvanes 11 can be increased to increase the efficiency of the rotary vane pump relative to previously known designs, without the risk of breakdown or fracture of the rotor. This is because the area of the rotor now subjected to high pressure is the outer circumferential edge of the rotor, at which point the slots are spaced furthest apart, and the rotor is at its strongest. The rotary vane pump of the present invention therefore overcomes the trade-off problems, mentioned above, associated with previously known designs, and can pump fluid at higher pressures. Higher pumping pressure allow for a reduction in fluid flow, with subsequent reduction in size of the associated components. The travel of the vanes can also be reduced relative to known designs, and the increase in the number of the vanes result in a quieter pump. with reduced vibration problems. - The above described embodiment of rotary vane pump can be modified within the scope of the present invention. For example, the slots in the rotor could be equidistantly spaced apart. Also, the stator could have a substantially circular cross-section, with the longitudinal axis of the stator offset from the longitudinal axis of the rotor to provide the required reciprocating movement of the vanes as the rotor rotates.
- The rotary vane pump of the present invention may be modified as described and claimed in our patent application no. (MJD/G-9796), filed the same day as the present application.
