Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to a water pump and, more specifically, to a water pump comprising a reservoir.
  • Engines such as internal combustion engines comprise an engine block and a cooling circuit for cooling the engine block and the various parts included therein such as pistons and drive shafts.
  • a water pump will be included in the cooling circuit for circulating a coolant through the cooling circuit.
  • a water pump will comprise a drive shaft extending through a pump housing, which shaft is born by a bearing and sealed against the housing by a seal. At a side internal to the housing an impeller will be connected to the shaft, whereas to the opposite side of the shaft a pulley or drive wheel will be connected for driving the impeller.
  • the shaft When the engine is driven the shaft will be rotated by the pulley, forcing the coolant through the cooling circuit by the impeller.
  • a small amount of the coolant will be forced from the cooling circuit past the seal, lubricating the seal, bearing and shaft.
  • a weep reservoir may be provided, collecting the coolant passing the seal.
  • An evaporation hole may be provided, connecting the weep reservoir with the environment. Since the water pump will be provided at a relatively hot side of the engine, the coolant will evaporate from the weep reservoir through the evaporation hole.
  • the reservoir of the "193 application can collect coolant to be evaporated, the volume of the reservoir is limited by the depth and cross section of the reservoir defined by the cast part. Coolant collected in the reservoir may spill through the evaporation hole in the liquid phase, for example when the engine is moved in any direction, when the engine is tilted or when the engine is not heated properly to a temperature sufficient for evaporating the coolant at a sufficient rate. This means that coolant may leak from the reservoir in liquid form and spill onto the engine or any surrounding surface. This can lead to corrosion and pollution or give the false impression that the water pump or cooling circuit is not operating properly.
  • the casting may be complicated and require a relatively large amount of metal, leading to undesirable manufacturing costs and weight and a large overall size of the pump housing.
  • a different size of weep reservoir may be required, leading to a number of pump housings, identical except for the size of the weep reservoir.
  • the disclosed water pump is directed to address at least one of the problems set forth above.
  • the disclosure is directed to a water pump.
  • the water pump includes a pump housing and a reservoir.
  • a first portion of the reservoir can be provided in the pump housing.
  • a second portion of the reservoir is made a s a separate part.
  • the second portion has an internal volume that is in fluid communication with the first portion.
  • the present disclosure is directed to a set of a pump housing and a reservoir part.
  • the pump housing comprises a first portion of a reservoir.
  • the reservoir part forms a second portion of the reservoir and is made as a separate part from the pump housing and has an internal volume.
  • the present disclosure is directed to a method of pumping fluid.
  • the method includes drawing a fluid into a pump housing and pressurizing the fluid in the housing. At least part of the fluid is directed to a seal and bearing, whereby at least part of the fluid is forced past the seal. At least part of that fluid is collected in part of a reservoir coupled to the pump housing. At least the part of the reservoir in which the fluid is collected is heated and the fluid collected therein is evaporated.

  • the word about has to be understood as meaning that at least a deviation of 10% of any given value is also disclosed, unless specifically indicated otherwise.
  • different second portions 31 can be used, as long as they have a second coupling 44 that can be coupled with the first coupling 43 of the first portion 25.
  • second portions 25 made of different materials and/or using different techniques can be used. Any one of the second portions 25 and a pump housing 4 can form a set 57 allowing the formation of a reservoir with a specific size and configuration, suitable to for example a specific engine or use.
  • volume V of the reservoir can be almost entirely formed by the volume V2 of the second portion 25.
  • the rim portion 30 will then be directly adjacent the top face 28.
  • the reservoir may have a longitudinal axis 34 extending substantially parallel to the shaft 13, providing for easy casting.
  • first and/or second portion can be non symmetrical or non cylindrical, or can for example be somewhat bottle shaped, having a neck portion formed by the second coupling 44 and a wider body, formed by the portion between the coupling 44 and the end wall 34, which can provide for a larger volume V with a shorter overall length L1.
  • the shaft 13 is driven rotating within the bearing 15. This may be effected by a gearing between a rotating shaft (not shown) of the engine 3 and the toothed wheel 16.
  • the shaft 13 rotates the impeller 17 in the pump chamber 18, which is at least partly filled with coolant.
  • coolant is drawn into the pump chamber 18 from the coolant circuit 9, through the inlet 19, and is pressurized in the chamber 18. Most of the pressurized coolant may then be forced out of the chamber 18 by the impeller 17. Part of the coolant is forced past the seal 15 into the space 22 between the bearing assembly 14 and the seal 15, lubricating the seal 15, the bearing assembly 14 and the shaft 13 at least to some extend.
  • the coolant that has passed the seal 15 and entered the space 22 can be drained from the space 22 through the channel 20 and be collected in the reservoir 24. This prevents the coolant to be spilled directly on the engine or into the environment, preventing corrosion or pollution and preventing an unfounded belief that the engine, especially the water pump 1 would be leaking. This could stop for example unnecessary stopping of the engine and thus loss of operation time, undue repair or replacement of the water pump and general annoyance for the users. Moreover, if coolant were spilled in liquid form it could also lead to interference with for example engine management, which could also lead to for example loss of operation time and avoidable repairs and costs.
  • coolant that has passed the seal 15 and is collected in the reservoir 24 will for the most part be collected in the lower part of the reservoir, which is formed by the second portion 31. Since the reservoir 24 can be mainly positioned near a front end of the engine or at least near the engine at a relatively hot position when the engine is running, heat from the engine 3 will heat up the reservoir 24 and the coolant collected therein. This coolant can therefore evaporate and escape from the reservoir in gaseous phase, through the channel 45 and the evaporation opening 48, passing the recess 48.
  • the second portion 31 can have a heat capacity substantially lower than the first portion 25. This can lead to the effect that even at relatively low engine temperatures the second portion 31 can be heated enough to make the coolant collected therein evaporate.
  • a water pump 1 according to this disclosure can be used with any type of engine and in any type of vehicle or machine. It has been recognized that some engines, vehicles or machines desire a larger reservoir then other engines, vehicles or machines. For example, when a machine or vehicle is used on terrain leading to large elevations or on rough surfaces or even at accelerations of decelerations of the engine, a smaller reservoir of the prior art may lead to spilling of liquid coolant through an evaporation opening. Even if the volume of this prior art reservoir would be sufficient to hold all coolant collected therein when the engine would be stationary. Increasing the overall size and volume of such known reservoir integrated in the pump housing might solve such problem to some limited extend, but would lead to an unnecessarily large, expensive and heavy water pump, which would be hard to manufacture, if at all possible.
  • Embodiments of a water pump 1 according to this disclosure can be manufactured by any method of manufacturing, for example casting a pump housing 4 which includes the first portion 25 of the reservoir 24 as an integral part.
  • the first portion 25 can be relatively shallow, which enables easy and secure, exact manufacturing.
  • the first portion 25 can moreover be relatively small in diameter, allowing positioning thereof in a part of the pump housing 4 being relatively narrow in width. Nevertheless the overall volume V of the reservoir can be made relatively large, using a second portion 31.
  • a set 57 of a pump housing 4 and a second portion 31 can be chosen on the basis of for example the intended use of the water pump and of the vehicle or machine in which an engine 3 has to be used bearing the water pump 1.
  • a second portion 31 can be chosen having a relatively large volume V2, resulting in a large overall volume. If the same or another type of engine, machine or vehicle will normally be used on a smooth surface or stationary, without any significant elevation, a smaller second portion 31 may be sufficient, reducing the overall volume, weight and cost of such water pump 1.
