15 Claims. (oi. 103- 401 This invention relates to variable delivery pumps and motorsjof the internally driven rotary piston type. for use primarily in high pressure 'fluid transmission systems.
5 Pumps and motorsof. the type herein above renecting rods bearing on'the periphery of of the connecting rods between the eccentric ferred to include ordinarily a variable stroke mechanism comprising a stationary eccentric shaft made by an outer eccentric member and an inner eccentric member, and the outer eccentric member is provided with mechanism whereby its angular position on the inner eccentric member can be varied to thereby vary'the stroke of the pistons in the cylinders, the pistons having conouter eccentric member. u
The purpose of the present invention is to simplify the variablestroke mechanism and provide a single rotary member thereof. The elimination member and pistons will provide a novel connection between the rotary member or planetary eccentric and the associated pistonsfin which the direction of each hydraulic piston load will coincide with the axis of the reciprocation of the piston and eliminates'the wearvon the cooperative surfaces of piston and cylinder assembly, and
thereby increases the efliciency of the pump or motor.
According. to the spirit of this invention 'a single rotary planetary eccentric is used Ior'the drive of the pistons.- Universal coupling means are used between the planetary eccentric and the impeller shaft to allow transverse shift or the planetary eccentric member. The pump and motor may have the same constructlon. however the eccentricity oi the motor is ordinarily constant and this eliminates the stroke adjust- V ing mechanism from the motor.
- v The pistons areaof the crankless T-head type, provided with a tangential crosshead rigidly .connectedtothe'piston propertooperate thepisdirections.
Another novel feature of sistsoftheprovisionoiapumpcasing'havinga cyiindricaJ-openingat one end and a pair of tangential parallel shoulders at the other end to engage rigidly a slidable stroke controlling block.
The torque transmitting members between im-.
peller and adiustable have pure harmonic oscillation relative to their cooperative members during-rotation.
Further novelty of present pump or motor lies in the fact that duringthe operation of thepump,
the planetary eccentric is in perfect balance, including the cooperative pistons. m is evithe this invention con- .dent for the zero delivery position when the whole rotary system rotates aroundthe geometrical axis of the pump, at which time all the rotary parts are in perfect balance, It will be seen that during stroke periods of the pump the 5 radial system of pistons will effect the perfect dynamic balance also of the planetary eccentric by gettingthe crossheads more crowded at one side of the eccentric than at the other. i
. Another object of myinventionis to provide 10 a. planetating piston actuating means, whereby each piston will'have two pressure and two suction strokes during each revolution and thereby to 'eiIect hydrostatically balanced load conditions in the barrel and its double acting cylindrical 15 valve member .oripintle, whereby to unload the bearings of the barrel andeliminateseizure between. pintle and barrel. The invention is more specifically described in 7 connection with the. attached drawings which 20 'sliow onejorm ot the inventive idea.
In the drawings:

Planetary eccentric I8 has two fiattenedend portionsas at H! and 20 respectively which are set at 90 degree position with respect to each other. A plurality of tangential grooveways 2| are provided to receive the associated crossheads 22 of piston 23. The pistons are fitted for radial reciprocation in their associated cylinders 24, and are removable through radial pipe plugs 25. The planetary eccentric l8 has a plurality of peripheral T-slots 2| with lip portions 26 p to effect the suction stroke of the pistons whereas the pressure stroke is effected by the tangential reaction surfaces 21, the bottom surface of the T-slots 2|. End portion I9 of the planetary eccentric IB is fitted in the slotted portion 28 of the cylinder barrel |5-for sliding reciprocation as shown in Fig. 2 supported on oil film or on proper anti-friction bearings. The slotted groove-way 28 of the cylinder barrel cooperates with the slotted groove-way 29 of a rotary adjustable member 30, and they are set 90 degrees apart in regard to each other as illustrated in Fig: 1 and transverse sections of Fig. 2 and Fig. 5 respectively. Cylin-- ders 24 are in communication alternatively during their rotation with distributor ports 34, 34, 35 and 35 respectively as shown in Fig. 3. Centrifugal channels 33 lead into the cylinders 24 which are in communication with suction and or delivery passages 3|, 32, 38 and 39 respectively.
Referring to Fig. 6 it will be seen that each pump port 34, 34, 35 and 35' is in axial communication with a corresponding valve end head port as shown in the figure, S, D, S, D respectively through axial passages 3|, 38 and 39, 32 respectively.
With further reference to the figure, the diametrically opposite ports in the head l2 are in communication with each other as indicated in the figure through appropriate pipings. The flow of fluid between one set of ports of S and S respec tively is shown and the direction is indicated by the arrows 31 whereas the similar connection between the delivery ports D and D, is shown as at the arrows 36'. The main inlet and outlet reversible ports orpump mains 36 and 31 provide inlets and outlets for aforesaid S, S and D, D chambers respectively. The outside oil circuit is connected to said pump mains by heavy pipe flanges in a well known manner.
With reference to Fig. 3 it is evident that in ports 34 and 35 or 34 and 35', there is the same vide for the axial misalignment of the planetary eccentric and the pintle. Rotary member 36 furthermore has an axially extending flat portion 41 for radial reciprocation in the cooperative fioating member 48 and for the transmission of the torque of the concentric impeller shaft 50 through the axially extending fiat portion 49 of the fioating member 48 as shown in Figs. 4 and 7 respectively. Impellershaft 50 is supported on antifriction bearing 5| and packed against leakage by packing rings 52 and packing gland 53 which latter is fastened to end cover by cap screws 54.
In Fig. 1 anti-friction bearing l6 may be directly mounted on end cover I2, instead of on 5 the enlarged portion of the distributor M which is supported by end cover l2.
As previously pointed out when rotary member 30 is adjusted laterally in eccentric position in regard to the center line of the rotating cylinder 10 barrel, the pistonswill resume reciprocation in their cylinders, due to the characteristic motion of member l8.
It follows from the foregoing analysis that since the planetary eccentric I6 is fully balanced, it 55 will operate in a distinct and different manner with respect to the control member 30, than any piston actuating member heretofore known in variable delivery pumps. Since the rotor I8 is unloaded, its supporting end flats are also un- 20 loaded. This is particularly important for the control member 36, since it is supported in bearing means such as 4| and 42, which have substantially very short span, consequently an unbalanced load at the left end thereof by flat 26 as 25 shown in Fig. 5 would impose considerable transverse load therein, which would result in sudden wear, or too expensive bearing structure for the support of member 36. It is further evident that the balanced performance of the control mem- 30 her 30 will allow balanced operation for the adjacent coupling member 48 and the driveshaft 50 respectively, so that these last named members will transmit only driving torque, and will be free of any lateral or transverse bending stresses which 35 is not true in pumps of present commercial design as hereinabove referred to. The novel working method of my planetary piston actuating means l8, thus further results in any easy shift of member 46, the bearing housing of the stroke 40 control mechanism, since there is no transverse force which would act in the bearings 4| and 42 and between their housing 40, and control means The individual cylinder and piston assemblies 45 on the pressure sides will be under the hydraulic load of the fluid. Piston crossheads 22 will take up at all times the entire piston load, the crosshead and crosshead way being always perpendicular to the direction of reciprocation. This 5 advantage of the crankless piston construction is increased by the fact that virtually all the driving of the cylinder barrel is effected mechanically by the fiat portion I9 of the rotary eccentric la instead of by the piston units themselves. 55
The fluid capacity in passages 33 provides compressibility for the pistons in their outer dead centers at the end of the compression cycle, when cylinder ports 55 are blocked off for. a. certain length of time, by the positive laps of the bridges 6 56, 56', 51 and 51' respectively, as shown in Fig. 3, wherein the cylinder ports 55 are considerably smaller than the length of the bridges.
Further purpose of passages 33 connecting the outer ends of the individual cylinders 24 is in 65 the provision of positive centrifugal pressure for thesuper-charging of the cylinders during the suction stroke. This condition provides a better filling of the cylinders and a greater volume of pump delivery which means higherefiiciency of '7 the pump and more silent operation thereof. Although an even number of pistons .are shown in th drawings for the simplicty of illustration, any other number'of pistons may be used according to the requirement of theduty for which the de- 75 pure harmonic motion during its strokes. It is well known that the combination of uneven hum;-
ber of pistons will deliver smoother current than the combination or next greater number of pistons. For this well known reason, where a uniform stream of pressure fluid is required, ordinarily the minimum number oi piston and cylinder assembly comprises flve units.
In order-to increase the efliciency or the relatively sliding members in the pump, various provisions may be made to retain a certain amount 01' the slip for useful lubrication. Although such provisions are not shown in the drawings, it is understood for instance that the counter-bored end portion of the cylinder barrel which surrounds the eccentric-may be provided with an end.
abutment with the barrel end l5, so as to retain a certain amount of slip past the several pistons to keep the crossheads flooded in centension members with oil. The case l0, however, will be drained to avoid viscous friction on the rorevolution of said rotor.
tating barrel and the churning up oioil.
The operationoi the pump is as follows: Irnpeller shaft." will be driven by a suitable power such as an electric. motor, Diesel engine or alike. Asprevimsly" described theright hand support flat or the planetary eccentric i8 is engaged slidingly in the slot 28 of the adjustable relative eccentric 3|, whereas the left hand support flat I! is guided in theslot 2B of the rotary barrel l5,
' thus the two endflatsoi the planetary eccentric are supported and driven between or by two parallel-but axially offset members IS and 30 respec- .tively, and forming with them the floating member of the well known Oldham coupling. 'I'herefore, so far as all the three members l5, II and 30 dorotate about a' common axis such as the axis of the pintle I, or the rotational axis of the impeller shaft", said three members will have a strokes during each revolution, with thesubsebodily rotation and no planetating takes place between the driving 30 and driven i5 coupling members. -As soon as, however, the end members i5 and 3! willbeset to an axially ofi set position,
- which is done here by the shifting'ot the bearing housing 40 through its control rods 43 and 44 respectively in either direction, the'planetary eccentric will begin to planetate and an average point .of-its periphery will describe an oval shape path in the space, which path is known'as the curve of Pascal :or Pascal Limacon. Thereiore, it is evident, that each 22 being driven and actuated by a slot if or the planetary eccentricwill have two approaches and two retreats during each revolution, with the result of what is termed adouble acting pumpoperation, by givmg each piston'two suction and two. pressure quent result of hydrostatic balance of all hydraulic members and mechanical balance of all rotary members.
