The present invention relates to hydraulic dynamometers or brakes, and more particularly to dynamometers or brakes employed as power absorption devices and having heat exchange means associated therewith for efiectin cooling of the I power absorption fluid.
More specifically; the invention relates to a novel power absorption device including heat exchange means arranged in the housing of the device, whereby the device can be made as an extremely compact, self-contained unit. The present invention contemplates disposing the heat exchange mean in either the normal working circuit of a brake or dynamometer (which provides an extremely compact unit), or externally of the normal working circuit; or where unusually great amounts of heat are to be absorbed, disposition of the heat exchange means in both the normal working circuit and externally of said working circuit. The invention further contemplates the use of any suitable liquid or gas as the power absorption fluid, the heat exchange means disclosed being adapted to cool both. When a gas, such as air, is employed as the power absorption fluid, the'same can be introduced into the brake or dynamometer housing under super-atmospheric pressure and used alone to absorb loads slightly in excess of the normal windage load, or used with a liquid to efiect stability under certain load conditions, or alone under sub-atmospheric pressure where loads less than the normal windage load are to be absorbed, all as fully set forth in greater detail in my copending application Serial No. 686,346, filed July 26, 1946, Patem No. 2,634,830, April 14, 1953. The invention still further contemplates the use of liquid or air as a cooling medium for the power absorption fluid.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a compact power absorption device having a built-in heat exchanger of sufiicient capacity to maintain the power absorption fluid at a desired operating temperature regardless of the load.
Another object of the invention is to provide a power absorption device with a built-in heat exchanger so associated with the normal working circuit of said device as to provide a closed circulating system for the brake or power absorption fluid, thereby making it possible to maintain any desired constant load without excessive operating temperatures.
Another object of the invention is to provide a hydraulic power absorption device including heat exchange means constructed to permit high 57 Claims. (Cl. 188-90) velocity flow therethrough during all conditions of operation of the device so as to maintain the air and the liquid in the device in a state of thorough mechanical intermixture, whereby to maintain a constant load by preventing air from collecting in large bodies and at the same time eflecting eflicient cooling of said mixture.
Another object of the invention is to provide a power absorption device having heat exchange means disposed within the housing thereof in either the normal working circuit of the device, or externally of the normal working circuit of the device, or in both the normal working circuit and externally of the normal working circuit of the device.
A further object of the invention is to provide a power absorption device with a heat exchanger that can be readily removed for servicing or repairs, if necessary.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a power absorption device having a builtin heat exchanger and in which all of the parts including those of the heat exchanger are hydrodynamically balanced to reduce harmonics and undue vibration.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a self-contained power absorption unit including heat exchange means rendering the unit extremely compact, and particularly adapted for us in installations Where space is at a premium, for example, in chassis dynamometers.

A bracket 29 is secured to each of the housing sections 2| and 22 by bolts 3U. Each of the brackets 26 contains,a ball bearing 33 serving as an anti-friction mounting for the shaft 28. The bearings 3i are held in the brackets 29 by .a dust-excluding, retainer plate 32 fastened to the brachetsttl by bolts 33. Enclosed within each of the brackets 26 is a gland 3& which engages packing material surrounding the shaft 28 to prevent the leakage of fluid from within the housing 25 outwardly along the shaft .28. Screws 3% are provided for adjusting the gland 34 to compress the packing 35 into sealing relation around the shaft 28.

A multiplicity of heat exchange tubes 52 is arranged transversely in each housing section 2|-22 in a zone disposed outwardly beyond the substantially semi-toroidal pockets 3'5. The tubes 52 are supported at their opposite ends in spaced header walls 43 and 44 that cooperate to provide a chamber 45 for cooling liquid. which is brought into contact with the exterior surface of the tubes 32 in a manner explained hereinafter. The innermost ends of the tubes t2 communicate with inlet passages 66 disposed between vanes til formed in the housing sections El and 22 in a vertical plane disposed inwardly of the pockets 3? and in alignment with pumping pockets 48 formed in a rotor 46.
