- the balancing is complete for each section of; the rotor and there is no lateral thrust tending to rock the shaft laterally about a point intermediate its ends.
- the shaft has no longitudinal thrust imparted thereto due to the pressure of the liquid.
- the right and lefthand rotor sections 32 and 33 bear respectively against the collar I8 and the annular key 'I2 and the thrusts in opposite directions imparted to the members 32 and'33 of the rotor are exactly equal and consequently are balanced and there is, therefore, no tendency to drive the shaft in either direction'axially of the shaft.
- the supporting ball bearings indicated generally at 86 and 61 are therefore not called upon to carry any thrust in any direction due to the pressure of the liquid.
- Another important feature of the pump forming the subject matter of this invention is that there is no tendency due to hydraulic pressure to rock the yoke about its vertical axis out of position. It is to be noted that the yoke 41 is pivoted about a vertical axis and when it is rocked to one shift the piston controlling member to either side of neutral with' a minimum eiort. There is a tendency to rock the yoke about a horizontal axis but in View of the fact that the trunnions 56 and 52 are widely spaced and are relatively large, it is apparent that this tendency is readily resisted.
- the pump forming the subject matter oi this invention can be used to produce any desired pressure even up to a very high pressure.
- the pump forming the sub- -lect matter of this inventionl is so organized that the forces are balanced and consequently minimum lWear results. It Awill also be seen that the pump may be very readily produced by simple machine shop operations.
- the pistons are positively driven in both directions and consequently the 8 pistons execute a positive suction action at one end whilei they compress the liquid at the other end and thus there is no necessity for a charging mechanism to charge the cylinders with oil.
- a pump comprising a, cylindrical rotor having a plurality of cylinders therein, pistons mounted within the cylinders, means for reciprocating. the pistons as the rotor rotates, a body portion surrounding the rotor and having arcuate suction and delivery channelsr on opposite sides of the rotor arranged for successive communication with the cylinders as the rotor rotates and having open sides closed by the cylindrical surface of the rotor, said body portion having at least one thrust balancing channel diametrically opposite the delivery channel and directly communicating with the delivery channel and having an open side closed by the cylindrical surface of the rotor, whereby the pressure produced in the delivery channel is transmitted directly to the thrust balancing, channel diametrically opposite the delivery channel.

Figure 10 is a view drawn to a reduced scale showing the semicircular keys for locking the left-hand end of the shaftagainst displacement to the left as viewed in Figure l.
Referring to the drawings, it will be seen that the pump comprises a body portion vl which may be provided with oppositely projecting apertured feet 2 whereby it may be secured to any suitable support. The body portion is bored straight through from lend to end to provide the cylindrical bore 3. Within this bore a right-hand ring 4 and a left-hand ring 5 are located and have a, pressed fit and form a unitary portion of the body portion of the device. These right and left-hand rings are provided respectively with arcuate channels 6, l, 8 and 9 respectively. The channels 3, 1, E8 and 9 extend approximately half way around each of the rings, as shown most clearly in the sectional views of Figures 6 and 7. Ports are formed in the body portion 'communicating with the channels by drilling straight across the body portion, as shown in Figures 7 and 8. \The holes are subsequently plugged by the threaded plugs shown in Figures 6 and '1. The ports are indicated by the reference characters Ill, Il, I2 and I3. 'I'he ports II) and I2 communicate by means of passageways I4 and I5 with a transverse passageway I6 which in turn communicates with a pipe I1. These ports may be drilled and the openings not used may be closed by means of screw threaded plugs as shown. The ports I I and I3 communicate by means of passageways i8 and v I9 with a transverse passageway 20 which in turn communicates with the pipe 2|, see Figure 2. These passageways may be drilled if desired and the ends not used may be closed by means of screw threaded plugs as indicated.
The rings 4 and 5 are provided with inner channels on opposite sides thereof. These inner channels are indicated respectively by the reference characters 22, 23.and 24, 25. The inner channels 22. 23 and 24, 25 communicate respectively, by means of a plurality of openings as shown, with the outer channels 6, 1, 8 and 8. The rings 4 and are also respectively provided with pairs of channels 26, 21 and 23, 28. These inner pairs of channels are pressure or thrust balance channels as will appear hereinafter. It is to be distinctly understood, however, that in place oi.' having the channels arranged in pairs, a single channel may replace each of the pairs of channels 2B, 23, 21, 21, 28, 28 or 29, 29, provided such channel is twice as wide as and coextensive with a single one of the channels. It is preferable, however, to have these channels arranged in- -pairs and located symmetrically on opposite sides oi the main channels 22, 23 and 24, 25. It is to be noted that the channels 26, 21 and 28, 29 appear in Figures 6 and '7 in dotted lines and are`almost complete semicircles.
In the ring 4 the pressure balancing channels 26 are located on opposite sides of the channel 22 and the pressure balancing channels 21 are located on opposite sides of the channel 23. In the ring 5 the pressure balancing channels 28 are located on opposite sides of the channel 24 and the pressure balancing channels 29 are located on opposite sides of the channel 25. The channels 26 communicate with the channel 1 andthe channels 21 communicate with the channel 6 in the ring 4. In the ring 5 the channels 28 communicate with the channel 9 and the channels 29 communicate with the channel 8.
The manner in which this communication is obtained is shown for the left-hand ring in Figures 3 and 4. It will be seen in reference to Figure 3, for instance, that the channel 9 communicates with the channels 28 by means of the slanting passageways 30 and that the channel 8 communicates with the channels 29 by means of the slanting passageways 3l. The right-hand ring has the same channels, not shown, which, as stated, place the channel 1 in communication with the channels 26 and the channel 3 in communication with the channels 21. 1
The sum of the widths of the channels 26 equal to the width of the channel 23 and the sum of the widths of the channels 21 is equal to the width of the channel 22 for the ring 4, and similarly for the ring 5 the sum of the widths of the channels 28 is equal to the width of the channel 25 and the sum of the widths of the channels 23 is equal to the width of the channel 24 and they are all co-extensive in length.
The purpose for the above described construction is apparent when it is considered that the pressure in the balancing channels 26 is the same as the pressure in the channel 23 and the pressure in the balancing channels 21 is the same as the pressure in the channel 22 for the right-hand ring 4, and for the left-hand ring the pressure in the balancing channels 29 is the same as the pressure in the channel 24 and the pressure in the balancing channels 28 is the same as the pressure in the channel 25. From thisit will be seen that the thrust applied at diametrically opposite portions on the two main sections of the rotor hereinafter described is identically the same and consequently no transverse thrust or pressure due to the liquid pressure is transmitted to the ball bearingsnsupporting the rotor and the ball bearings supporting the rotor are, therefore, called upon only to sustain the weight of the rotor and are not called upon to sustain any unbalanced pressure due to the hydraulic pressure generated by the pump. Thus it will be seen further that the channels26, 21 and 28, 23 are in reality thrust balancing channels.
The rotorcomprises a right and a lett- hand portion 32 and 33 respectively. These rotor sections are rigidly keyed as shown to the shaft 34 which may be driven in any suitable manner. The right-hand section 32 of the rotor is provided with a plurality of cylinders 35, and the left-hand section 33 of the rotor is provided with a plurality of cylinders 35. A slanting passageway or port 31 extends outwardly from each of the cylinders 35 and opens outwardly throughA the external periphery of the right-hand section 32 of the rotor. Similarly the cylinders 36 are each provided with slanting passageways 38 which open outwardly through the outer periphery oi the left-hand section 33 of the rotor. The outer ends of the cylinders 35 are closed by means of threaded plugs 39 and the outer ends of the cylinders 38 are closed by means of the threaded plugs 40.
A plurality of double-ended pistons are provided and are indicated generally by the reference character 4I, These pistons are provided with piston portions 42 at their right-hand ends and piston portions 43 at their left-hand ends which respectively iit within the cylinders 35 and 38. The intermediate portions of the pistons 4I are reduced and each piston carries a pair of flange members 44 located on opposite sides of the reduced portion.
A piston controllingor reciprocating member in the form of a ball bearing indicated generally by the reference character 45 is positioned centrally of the pump.' This piston controlling member consists of an outer race 46 which has a pressed t with a yoke 41. It is heid in place by means of the ring 48 which may, if desired, be a split ring. The inner race of the piston controlling member 45 is indicated by the reference character 49 and between the two races a plurality of balls 55 are positioned. The inner race 49 clears the central reduced portion of the piston 4I and the inner race is provided on opposite sides with inwardly slanting faces 5I which engage the curved faces of the flanges 44 of the pistons. During operation of the pump the inner race 49 travels around with the pistons.
It is to be noted that the yoke 41 is provided with a lower trunnion 52 which is mounted withthe body portion I, as shown in Figure 1.
in a. bushing 53 in the body portion I and the hole in which the sleeve 53 is` mounted isclosed by means of a bottom plate 54. The yoke is provided with a bottom collar portion 55 which rests on a shoulder formed on the body portion I, as shown in 'Figure 1. The upper end of the yokeis provided with an upper trunnion 56 which is carried within a bushing 51'which in turn is carried by a cap 58 secured to the upper side of The upper portion of the yoke is provided with an upper collar portion 59 which bears against a suitable shoulder formed on the cap 58. The bushings 53 and 5'I are pressed into place in accordance with the usual practice. 'The trunnion 58 extends outwardly beyond the collar 58 and may be provided, as shown in Figure 5. with an operating handle or member 60 rigidly secured thereto as shown and provided with an arcuate slot 6I through which a locking bolt 62 passes. This hand lever is adapted to be shifted to either side of center to thus rock the yoke into the extreme position shown in Figure 2 on one side of `center or to rock the yoke into the extreme position on the other side of center or to any intermediate positions, or to hold the yoke in a neutral position as shown in Figure 1.
Any other suitable means may be provided for A rocking vthe yoke. For instance, the operating member 62' shown in Figure 9 may be actuated by means of a link 63 connected toany automatic control means or to a manual control means as desired. 'I'he member 62' is provided with an arcuate slot Stand the cap 58 carries a limit pin 65 to limit the extreme rocking motion of the member 52 on opposite sides of center.
'I'he shaft 34 is carriedvat opposite ends by ball bearings indicated generally at 66 and 61. The ball bearing 86 is carried in the right-hand end plate 68 and the ball bearing 61' is carried in the left-hand end plate 69. The shaft is prevented from moving to the right asviewed in Figure 1 by means of the integral collar I0 which is adapted to coact with the inner race of the ball bearing 66 to prevent right-hand shifting of the shaft. The left-hand end of the shaft is provided witha groove II within which an annular split key 'I2 is seated. This split key is surrounded by. means of a ring 'I3Y which is pressed on to the key and holds the two halves of the key 'I2 in place as shown most clearly in Figure 10. The annular key 'I2 is adapted to coact'with the inner race of the ball bearing 81 to prevent left-hand shifting of the shaft 3'4.
It is to be understood that the coacting parts of the pump are accurately ground and are ac- -curately fitted. The pump is adapted to pump psageways 38 into the channel 24 and from this channel it is discharged into the channel 8. The channel 8 communicates 'with the channel I9 and the channel 28 and nally with the discharge pipe 2i. On the lower half of the leithand end of the pump the pistons 4I are traveling to the right as viewed in Figure 2 and are sucking liquid from the inlet pipe I'I through the channels I6 and I5 and the arcuate channels 8 and 25. On the right-hand end of the pump on the lower half thereoi'r'the pistons 4I are traveling to the right as viewed in Figure 2 and consequently are pumping liquid from the cylinders 35 through the apertures 31' into the channel 23 and from there into the channel 1. The liquid is discharged through the channels I8 and 20 to the discharge pipe 2|. On the upper half of the right-hand portion of the pump the pistons are traveling to the left as viewed in Figure 2 and consequently are drawing liquid into the cylinders 35 through the inlet pipe I 1 and through the channels IS and I4 through the annular channels 6 and 22.
-' under pressure in the channel 24 is transmitted The pressure downwardly on the left-hand portion of the rotor, see Figure 6, due to the fluid liquid in'the channels 26 and consequently no thrust is imparted. to the shaft due to the hydraulic pressure as the channels 26 are coextensive in total width and length with the channel 23. If the lpiston controlling member'is moved position shown in Figure 2. It will be seen that y during the rotation of the rotor, the upper half of the rotor is pumping on the-left-hand end of the pump and the lower half of the ro-tor is pumping on the right-hand end of the pump. The pistons 4I are traveling to the left as viewed in Figure 2 for the upper half portion of the rotor and consequently are pumping liquid out of thc cylinders 36 of the rotor section 33. The liquid is discharged from the cylinders 36 through the to the other side of center from that shown in Figure 2, the pressure of the liquid in the chan"- nels 25 and 28 for-the left-hand portion of the rotor and the pressure in the channels 22 and 2'I for the right-hand end of the rotor will exactly balance in exactly the same manner and for the same reasons as that previously described, and consequently no thrust will be imparted to the shaft.
The balancing is complete for each section of; the rotor and there is no lateral thrust tending to rock the shaft laterally about a point intermediate its ends. In addition to this the shaft has no longitudinal thrust imparted thereto due to the pressure of the liquid. The right and lefthand rotor sections 32 and 33 bear respectively against the collar I8 and the annular key 'I2 and the thrusts in opposite directions imparted to the members 32 and'33 of the rotor are exactly equal and consequently are balanced and there is, therefore, no tendency to drive the shaft in either direction'axially of the shaft. The supporting ball bearings indicated generally at 86 and 61 are therefore not called upon to carry any thrust in any direction due to the pressure of the liquid. I
In addition to this it is to be noted particularly that the right-hand ring 4' does not withstand any thrust. from the rotor 32 due to fluid pressure and similarly the left-hand ring 5 does not withstand any thrust from'the rotor due to fluid pressure as is apparent from the above description.
The result of this accurate balancing of hydraulic pressure is that there is the minimum 7 wear between the right and left-hand sections of the rotors 32 and 83 and the right and left-hand rings 6 and 5 respectively, and there is also the minimum wear on the bearings supporting the axes when the piston controllingv member 45 is moved to either side of the neutral position shown in Figure l as the flange members 44 ride either further out or further in on the inner race 49 of the piston controlling member 45. This imparts, as stated, aslightV oscillatory or rotary motion to the pistons back and forth about their longitudinal axes and consequently insures uniform wear between the pistons and the walls of their cylinders.
Another important feature of the pump forming the subject matter of this invention is that there is no tendency due to hydraulic pressure to rock the yoke about its vertical axis out of position. It is to be noted that the yoke 41 is pivoted about a vertical axis and when it is rocked to one shift the piston controlling member to either side of neutral with' a minimum eiort. There is a tendency to rock the yoke about a horizontal axis but in View of the fact that the trunnions 56 and 52 are widely spaced and are relatively large, it is apparent that this tendency is readily resisted.
It is to be noted also that there are no unbalanced masses which would tend to cause vibration about the longitudinal axis of the shaft even when the pump is run at a high speed.
Another point of considerable importance in the actual manufacture of the pump is that practically all of the main surfaces are easily machined. For instance the main body portion of the pump is bored straight through from end to end and the rings 4 and 5 are readily turned on a lathe and are bored out from end to end. Also it is to be noted that the cylinders are formed by drilling straight through each section of the rotor.
It is to be noted also that though the pump is rotated in one direction, nevertheless the flow of fluid through the pump may be reversed or may be stopped entirely by respectively shifting the yoke to one or the V other side of neutral or moving the yoke back to neutral. It is to be noted also that the yoke may be shifted from neutral to maximum on either side of center to thus cause the pump to pump the liquid at any desired rate from zero up to its maximum capacity.
It will be seen that the pump forming the subject matter oi this invention can be used to produce any desired pressure even up to a very high pressure.
It will be seen that the pump forming the sub- -lect matter of this inventionl is so organized that the forces are balanced and consequently minimum lWear results. It Awill also be seen that the pump may be very readily produced by simple machine shop operations.
It is to be noted that the pistons are positively driven in both directions and consequently the 8 pistons execute a positive suction action at one end whilei they compress the liquid at the other end and thus there is no necessity for a charging mechanism to charge the cylinders with oil.
It is to be understood that although a ball bearing has been shown, any suitable type of antifriction bearing could be employed for the piston controlling member. Obviously, other changes could be made where they do not affect the spirit of the invention and, therefore, although this invention has been described in considerable detail, it is to be understood that such description is intended as illustrative rather than limiting, as the invention may be variously embodied and is to be interpreted as claimed.
