This invention relates to thetype of hydroshowing the application of my invention to a turbine pump shown in the prior United slightly different type of pump, and States patents to Nash, No. 953,222, granted Fig. 6 is asimilar detail view showing a March 29, 1910, and No. 1,091,529, granted further modification.
5 March 31, 1914. Referring particularly to Figs. 1, 3 and 4, litiI In'the manufacture of the Nash type of l have indicated a pump which is in genpump, it has been found that theperi heral eral the well known Nash type and comprises l speed of the rotor must not exceedade nitely a rotor 10 mounted on`r a shaft 11 and rblincwn rate if the efficiency of the pump is tatable in a casing 12. The rotor is posil@ to be maintained. All attempts to increase tively'driven from a motor or other suitable 60 the relative axial length of the rotor beyond source of power.. The rotor 10 is preferably approximately 40% of its outside diameter of a general cylindrical shape and rotates have also been found to produce a sharp drop within a compartment or chamber in the in eiiciency in higher vacuum operation. casing 12, which is substantially of elliptical @onse uently, the only practical method cross-section, the chamber closely fitting the hereto ore known for increasing the capacity rotor at the two sides thereof, as shown in of the Nash type of pump has been by in- Fig. 3, and being'spaced therefrom to form creasing the diameter proportionately to any lobes above land below the rotor. increase in rotor length, and by correspond- The rotor, as is usual in Nash pumps,fis

This method, of increasing cahavinga port or opening at the bottom. The pacity involves increases in weight andmotor casing 12 is provided with an inlet 13, consize out of all proportion to thej gain in canected through an inlet passage 13a to inlet S5 pacity. Y f ports 14. v 'F5 The principal object of this present vinvenln vthe preferred form, the walls of the tion is to provide means permitting widenrotor chamber are extendedinward to form ing of the pumpv rotor and thus securing adconical hub portions 25, provided with openditional capacity without reducin the eci- Iings 28 connecting the inlet ports 14 and s@ ency of the pump. A more speci c object is passages 14a with the otor pockets. Addi- 80 tc provide means, as a separating member, tional openings 28 connect therotor pockets for stopping the surging of the water in the with. passages 15a and dischargev ports 15, lobes o" the pump casin whereby the length connected by an outlet passage16 to the pump cf the rotor may be su stantially increased outlet 17.
while maintaining or increasing the eiiiciency ln the 'operation of pumps as thus far de- 35 i of the pump. @ther objects and advantages scribed, it has been found that tlie axial cf the invention will be hereinafter described vlength -of the rotor cannot substantially exand more particularly pointed out in the apceed 40% of its outside .diameter without f pended claims. y reatly reducin the efficiency of the-pump. 4@ Certain forms and modifications of the'int appears pro able that this reduction in 9 venticn are shown in the drawings, in .which eliciency on increase of'length is due to the ligl is the longitudinal sectional .elevasurging of the water axially in the elliptical -ticn cfa pump embodying my improvements, lobes or spaces surounding the rotor in the 'taken on ine 5 5, F1g. 3. upper and lower portions of the casing.
Fig. 2 is a partial elevation similar to Fig. In order to reduce or prevent this surging 95 1, but showin a slight modification; action, I have provided one or more separat- 3 andg4 are transverse sectional ele- 4ing members 20, preferably formed integral -vations, taken-along the lines 3-3 and 4 4 .on the inside of the casing in the elliptical in Fig-1'. portions thereof and extendin inward closel Fig. '5 is a longitudinal sectionalelevation yadjacent to 'the periphery o the rotor.
size can be operated.
When such a separating partition is .pro-
A vided, it is found possible to very substanti.
ally increase the length of the rotor relative to its out side diameter without loss of eliticiency. It is thus possible to correspondingly increase the capacity of the pumpby merely increasing the length thereof and withou change in the peripheral speed.
I also find it desirable to provide a corresponding separating member 21 (FigL 1) in the hub portion of the rotor itself, this separating member 2l strengthening the vanesl of the rotor and also co-operating with the separating members 20 in reducing cross cur-v rents within the pockets of the rotor.
In Fig. 2 I have indicated a separating member 24 in the rotor extended outward substantial to the periphery of the rotor to still further decrease the cross currents.
In Fig. 5, I have indicated the use of the separating members 20a in a slightly different type of pump, in which the ports 30- are formed directly in the rotor chamber end walls, instead of being formed in extended hub portions of` the casing. The action and the advantages of the separating members 20a are the same as previouslydescribed.
In Fig. 6, I have indicated the additional -use of separating members 2lb in a pump of the type shown in Fig. 5.
In all forms of the invention illustrated,
the apparently'simple change over previous practice by inserting the separating members in the casing lobe or lobes, or in the lobe or lobes and alsoin the rotor, has been found to produce very remarkable increases in eficiency and also great economy in manufacture. It has been found, for instance, that the capacity of a certain size pump can be increased by this method with a saving of at least one-third in weight of metal over a pump of the same capacity but with a larger diameter and narrower rotor, and with areduction in motor size due to the increased speed at which the longer pump of smaller the advantages thereof, I do not'wish to bey limited to the details herein disclosed otherwise than as set forth in the claims.
