1 Claims.
This invention relates to gear pumps and more particularly to an' improved construction of a gear pump for pumping hydraulic fluid under high pressure. v
In gear pumps adapted to pump fluid under high pressure, it is well known that the efliciency of the pump decreases from the time it is placed into use and, in a comparatively short period of time, a pointvis reachedwhere further use of the pump is rendered impractical. Such pumps employ a pump housing having a pair of intermeshing gears rotatable about parallel axes mounted therein and operable topump fluid upon having a rotating movement imparted thereto. The decrease in efficiency of the pump is due to factors tending to cause disalignment of the axes of the pump gears thus causing the gear teeth or pumping vanes to ride against the sides of the pump housing. This action causes wear on the pump housing and increases the amount of clearance between the gear teeth and the side of the housing. After a period of use, the clearance will become so great from wear as to materially effect the efficiency of the pump.
In order to prevent axial disalignment of the pump gears, it has been common practise to provide gear pump with heavy brass shims against which the end faces of the gears ride and by which the gears are held in proper position. After a period of use, the shims become worn and are no longer operable to preventaxial disalignment of the pump gears and if use of the pump is continued under such condition, the gear teeth will gouge out the surface of the pump housing and render the pump unfit for further use. Accordingly, it is necessary to freqently dismantle the pumping unit and replace the brass shims to prevent injury to the pump housing. Obviously, the cost of dismantling and replacement of shims is highly undesirable in pumps of the character referred to.
A factortending to cause axial disalignment of pump gears and consequent injury to the pump arises from fluid entrapped between the intermeshing gear teeth. As the teeth come together, a pocket is formed between the teeth which is completely filled with liquid. As rotation of the intermeshing .gears is continued, the teeth come closer together diminishing the size of the pocket and the fluid in such pocket is forced out under increased pressure. The fluid thus trapped between the intermeshing gear teeth exerts a considerable force against the pump gears tending to force them away from each other and cause axial disalignment of such gears.
To permit the escape of fluid, the customary practise has been to provide openings in the surface of the shims and the fluid trapped in the pockets is forced out of the pocket endwise with respect to the gear teeth into such openings. However, this method. of permitting the escape of fluid trapped between intermeshingrgear teeth .each other.
Accordingly, one of the principal objects of this invention is to provide a rotary gear pump in which axial disalignment of the rotating gears is effectively prevented.
-A further object is to provide gear wheels in a pump of the character referred to with means for preventin entrapping of fluid between inter-' meshing gear teeth.
A further object is to provide gear wheels in a pump of the character referred to with gear teeth having by-pass conduits or passages formed therein for conducting fluid away from pockets formed between intermeshing gear teeth to prevent the formation ofpressure from fluid entrapped in such pockets.
A further object is to provide a novel mounting for rotatably supporting the gear wheels in a rotary gear pump which will effectively prevent axial disalignment of the gears and eliminate the necessity of providing brass shims customarily used in present day practise.
Other objects and advantages ofthe invention will become apparent during the course of the followin description.
In the drawings there is shown a preferred embodiment of the invention. In this showing:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a rotary gear pump, a part thereof being broken away, and shown in section.
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken substantially on the line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a diagrammatic view showing a pair of intermeshing gears as used in a gear pump,
intermediate housing member 4.
Figure 6 is a detail of one gear tooth illustrating the arrangement of the by-passopenings.-
Referring to the drawings, the numeral I indicates as a whole a rotary gear pump comprising a top member 2, a bottom member 3, and an Intermeshing gear wheels 5 and 6 are rotatably mounted in the housing member 4 between the top and bottom portions 2"and 3 in a manner to be described. The inner surface of the intermediate portion 4, as shown by the dotted lines 5' and 6 in Figure 1, corresponds to the addendum circle of the rotating gears in accordance with conventional practice. An inlet I, and an outlet-8 are provided for the admission and exhaust of fluid in the pump The bottom portion 30f the pump is provided with openings 9 and a by-pass conduit ||l controlled by a suitable check valve for bypassing fluid from the exhaust to the inlet side.-
of the pump. The by-pass I and check valve control are not shown in detail as such construction is well known in the art.
Referring to Figures 4 and 5, adjacent pairs I of intermeshing gear teeth are shown enlarged to illustrate the manner in which pockets are formedbetween such teeth and in which fluid is trapped. It will be noted that the pocket II is formed initially by engagement of the tooth I2 with the teeth I3 and I4 at the points I5 and I6 respectively. As rotation of the gear wheels is the pockets I I will be permitted to escape to the exhaust or delivery side of the pump. In this manner, the pressure resultant from the trapped fluid in the pockets II, tending to spread the gears apart and thereby effect axial disalignment of the gears, will be prevented.
The pump is operated by means of a drive shaft 2| to which the gear 5 is keyed and provided with a press-fit. Bearing assemblies 22 and 23 are provided for rotatably supporting the shaft 2| and gear 5 within the pump chamber. Each of the bearing assemblies comprises inner v .and outer hardened steel races 24 and 25 havsuch gear.
must be forced out of such pocket as rotation of the gear wheels is continued, thereby causing a considerable increase in'the pressure of the fluid from the pockets II, a plurality of passages or.
conduits. I! are formed in the gear teeth and are As pointed out above, the common spaced along the length of the teeth as best I shown in Figure 6. l.
The passages I! extend inwardly from the addendum I8 of the gear teeth and other passages I9 are provided to permit the escape of fluid from the passages IT. The passages I9 extend inwardly from the root 20' of the gear teeth and on the side thereof opposite to the direction of rotation of the gear wheels. The passages I1 and I9 intersect at 20 in order to provide a direct passageway for the fluid out of the pockets II. Since the passages I9 extend inwardly with respect to the direction of rotation of the gear wheels, it will be apparent that the fluid from the top member 2 and lower member 3. The
press-fit of the outer races 24 rigidly secures the outer races against movement with respect to the casing of the pump. I
The races 24 and 25 and the bearings 26 being formed of hardened steel, effectively hold the gear 5 against forces tending to axially disalign Moreover, no part of the shaft 2| is subject to wear and accordingly, the objectionable feature resulting from the shaftbeing permitted to ride directly on a bearing is thereby eliminated The gear 6 meshing with the gear 5 is provided with a central opening and is mounted on a stationary shaft 29 by means of bearing assemblies 30 and 3|. The shaft 29 is provided with a press fit in openings 32 and 33 respectively formed in the upper member 2and lower member 3. Each of the bearing assemblies 30 and 3| comprise hardened steel innerraces 34 pressed on the shaft 29 and hardened steel outer races 35 pressed on the inner surface of the annular gear 6. In this manner, the inner races 34 are fixed against movement with respect to the shaft 29 and the casing of the pump I and the outer races 35 are fixed to the gear 6 so as to be rotatable therewith. Hardened steel frictionless roller bearings 31 are provided between the inner and outer races. Since the shaft 29 occupies a fixed position with respect to the casing of the pump, it will be apparent that axial disalignment of the gear wheels 8.will be effectively prevented and the gear 6 will be rotated about the shaft 29 on the outer races 35.
The bearing assemblies employed are known as the tapered type and are particularly importantwith respect to the'construction in regards to their ability to absorb end as well as radial thrusts and provide new results with respect to the' intermeshing gears and their supporting shafts.
Moreover, it will be apparent that each of the shafts 2| and 29are provided with a pair of bearing assemblies supporting the gears at spaced points with respect to the housing of the pump. The inner and outer races and frictionless bearings being formed of hardened steel, it will be apparent that the gears 5 and 6 may be operated indefinitely without any appreciable wear taking place. Wobbling of the gears about their respective axes of rotation is thereby prevented and the gear teeth are likewise prevented from riding against the surface of the housing member 4.
In assembling the pump |,'the housing member 4 is placed on the bottom member 3 and the gears together with their associated parts are placed in together.
From the foregoing, it will be apparent that the provision of bearing assemblies for each of the.
intermeshing gears having races substantially integral with the gears and other races substantially integral with the pump casing will be effective to hold the intermeshing gears against axial disalignment. By reason of the provision of such bearings, the necessity of. providing brass shims riding against the end faces 40 and ll of the gears is thereby eliminated.
Moreover, the provision of the passages l1 and I9 effectively eliminates the formation of pres sure acting against and tending'toaxially disalign the intermeshing gears. Accordingly, it will be apparent that'both the type of bearing assembly supporting the gears for rotating movement in the pump casing and the by-pass conduits formed in the gear body cooperate together for a common purpose to prevent movement of the gear teeth. against the surface of the pump housing.
' The working surface of the pump housing will thus be protected against wear which would reduce the efdciency of the pump gearing. I
It will be understood that the construction of the pump disclosed herein is particularly adapted for the pumping of fluid under high pressures. By the term high pressure is meant pressures usually considerably in excess of 200-300 pounds.
