Definitions

  • the invention relates to hydro and pneumatic engineering and can be used as a pump, a compressor or a motor.
  • Patent SU, A1, 909305 protects a gerotor machine, comprising a ring stator with contactors, a rotor with displacers, coaxially-mounted with respect to the stator with the formation of working chambers between their matingsurfaces; end surfaces of the rotor and the stator are provided with ring grooves and collars with matingsurfaces, and every working chamber is performed in the form of two profiled grooves, located at one of the matingsurfaces on both sides of collar in one angular sector.
  • a disadvantage of said device is its low efficiency as a result of small capacity of working chambers.
  • Patent SU, A1, 1237092 protects a gerotor machine, comprising a frame-mounted stator, performed with constant or alternating thread pitch and epicycloidal in cross-section, a spindle located in the stator with outer screw vaulted cross-section surface, having a thread pitch different from the inner screw surface of the stator, stator's inner screw surface and spindle's outer screw surface are mounted with the possibility of locking with or without clearance; the device is provided with a gear unit mounted between the stator and the spindle, spindle's vaulted cross-section is performed with the thread pitch one-unit bigger than stator's thread pitch, spinder's thread pitch is divisible by stator's thread pitch, and the gear unit is performed with transmission ratio equal to the ratio of stator's and spindle's pitches.
  • a disadvantage of said device is a huge constructive complexity and, as a consequence, low reliability.
  • the rotor is arranged in the shell in such a way that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof.
  • the shell is disposed inside the stator in such a way that it is rotatable and that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof.
  • the passage area between the rotor and shell and between the shell and stator is embodied in such a way that it is variable along the longitudinal axis of the machine.
  • Said rotor and shell are embodied in such a way that they are displaceable by an axial force for tightening the rotor, shell and stator to each other, thereby automatically taking up clearances when they are formed (US, A, 2085115).
  • the machine In order to remove clearances between the machine elements and, respectively, to restore the compression, the machine shall be disassembled and worn-out elements or their elastic covers shall be changed, which is a rather labour-intensive process.
  • the aim of the said invention is to develop a gerotor machine which makes it possible to automatically compensate the clearances formed between the rotor and shell, and between the shell and stator.
  • the inventive gerotor type machine for displacing liquids and gases along the longitudinal axis thereof comprising a stator, a screw rotor and a shell, the rotor being arranged in the shell in such a way that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof, and the shell being disposed inside the stator in such a way that it is rotatable and that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof, the passage area between the rotor and shell and between the shell and stator being embodied in such a way that it is variable along the longitudinal axis of the machine, wherein said rotor and shell are embodied in such a way that they are displaceable by an axial force for tightening the rotor, shell and stator to each other, thereby automatically taking up clearances when they are formed.
  • a direct technical result which may be obtained when realizing substantial features of the claimed invention is the fact that the clearances formed on account of rotor, shell and stator deterioration are automatically removed, as under the effect of axial force the said machine elements are displaced and tightly compressed one to another. No stops for the perception of axial force exerting effect upon the rotor and the shell are required, as the rotor rests upon the shell, and the shell - upon the stator. As a result of the automatic removal of clearances, the reduction of compression of the gerotor machine is prevented and the necessity of frequent disassembly and assembly of the machine when its components deteriorate is eliminated.
  • the gerotor machine comprises screw rotor 1 and shell 2.
  • Rotor 1 is located in shell 2 in such a way that working chambers 3 are formed between their mating surfaces, the passage area between rotor 1 and shell 2 is variable along the longitudinal axis of the machine; roller 4 is connected with rotor 1; shell 2 is disposed in such a way that it can be rotated inside stator 5.
  • the gerotor machine comprises suction pipe 7 and discharge pipe 8. Lower end of the rotor is provided with axis 9, located in bearing 10. Roller 4 is located in bearing 11. Roller 4 is fixed into blind hole 12; torque is transferred by means of dowel 13. Axis 9 can slide relative to bearing 10 within clearance 14.
  • the machine is used as a pump, but can be used also to transfer gas.
  • the machine can also be operated in hydro- or pneumomotor mode.
  • the device works as follows.
  • the liquid enters into suction pipe 7 and then, under the rotation of rotor 1 and shell 2, enters into discharge pipe 8 through working chambers 3 and 6.
  • the rubbing elements rotor, shell, stator
  • the rotor and the shell are displaced along the machine longitudinal axis in the direction of the suction pipe as a result of axial force effect, the clearance between them is taken up and they are tightened to one another thereof, which prevents from the decrease of compression of the gerotor machine.
