- objects of this invention are to provide an electromagnetic pump in the form of a pair of shaded pole motors in which the rotors are allowed to vibrate axially due to cyclic variations of the alternating current and in which this multitude of rapid vibrations serves to pump the oil while the tendency ofthe armatures to twist or rotate due to the action of the shaded poles determines the direction of flow of fluid to and from the work cylinder or other motor means, the amount of twist being controlled by the voltage impressed on the device and the twist of the armature being resisted by a hair spring with bimetal compensation means arranged to compensate for temperature changes which vary the resistance of the wire wound on the stators or fields of the shaded pole motors,
- a further specific object of this invention is to provide an electromagnetic pump of the above 7 character in which there is no supporting hearing for the armatures but in which the armatures freely float due to their magnetic suspension from the field of the shaded pole motors, and in which the armatures twist or turn as a unit, such armatures being rigidly attached to each other so far as twisting movement is concerned but being free to independently vibrate.
- This invention has the additional object of providing means whereby the torque exerted by the armatures due to the shaded pole action 2. is substantially independent of the amount the armatures project into the pole or field structure of the motors and is responsive only to the voltage variation.

- the armatures are connected so as to form an assembly or unitary structure. Each armature is rigidly secured to a leaf spring I and the outer ends of the leaf spring are joined by light pillars or posts 8 so that the assembly of armature and associated structure can twist as a unit to the desired position depending on the voltage impressed on the field coils as will be hereinafter discussed. 7
- the torque or twist of the armatures is resisted by means of a hair spring or helical spring 9, the outer end of which is connected to the armature assembly by means of a rigid arm H], see Figures 1 and 8.

- the outer end of the bimetal strip !3 is connected to the rigid body portion M of the structure by means of a rigid arm It.
- the body portion M of the structure may consist of a pump cylinder, as indicated, in which a piston is is positioned.- This piston is provided with a piston rod i! which is connected to the operating lever it of a switch or other member is.
- any suitable motor means could be provided in place of the work cylinder i l.
- the work cylinder is merely used as an illustration.
- the work cylinder has opposite ends connected to the pump by means of pipes 28 and 2 i
- the armatures 5 project outwardly from the field structure of the motors as is shown in Figures 1, and 6.
- These armatures comprise a group of laminations 22, a mild steel ring member 23, and a cup-like member 2'3 which binds the ring member 23 to the laminations when the end nuts 25 are tightened.
- the armature also comprises a copper sleeve 26 which is secured to the member 23 and extends only up to the laminations so that only a part of the magnetic structure of the armature is covered by the copper member 26.
- the armatures vibrate axially or 1ongitudinally in a rapid manner in accordance with cyclic variations of the alternating current. They also impart a twist to the armature assembly and this twist is opposed by the hair spring 9. The amount of twist is determined by the voltage impressed on the field coils. It is to be noted particularly that the motors twist together as a unit, but they vibrate independently of each other. If desired, the leaf spring I and the mass of weight of the armatures may be so proportioned, taking into consideration the oil Within which they are immersed, that resonance is obtained at the line frequency. The vibration of the armatures axially is towards and from each other and each armature vibrates independently of the other.

- the oil discharged from the righthand end of the work cylinder through the pipe 2i will pass through the port or passage 39 to the discharge port or passage 37.
- the position of the valve 29 changes. It will move in such a manner as to connect one end of the work cylinder with the pressure outlet port of the pump when the voltage drops below a predetermined value since the helical spring 9 will turn the valve in the opposite direction from that produced by the torque of the armatures. The balance between the torque produced by the armatures and that of the helical spring 8 determines the position of the valve.
- the armatures are magnetically suspended from the fields and do not require any bearing to support them.
- the pistons and the guiding portion 32 attached to the armatures fit within the pumping sleeve or cylinder 33 and properly center the rotors without, however, supporting them.

5 Claims. 1
This. invention relates to a vibratory, alternating current electromagnetic pump.
Objects-of this invention are to provide a voltage sensitive device which takes the form of a vibratory electromagnetic pump, which is so constructed that it will pump oil or other fluid and will selectively control the connection of the pump to opposite ends of a work cylinder orother motor means as well asicontrol the discharge of the fluid from such work cylinder or motor means.
This invention is an improvement over that disclosed in the copending application of. Anthony Van Ryan, Serial No. 189,612, filed October 11, 1950, now Patent No. 2,627,811 dated February 10, 1953, for Electromagnetic Pump, and assigned to the same assignee' as the present application,
and has in general the same objects as those set forth in such copending application.
In greater detail, objects of this invention are to provide an electromagnetic pump in the form of a pair of shaded pole motors in which the rotors are allowed to vibrate axially due to cyclic variations of the alternating current and in which this multitude of rapid vibrations serves to pump the oil while the tendency ofthe armatures to twist or rotate due to the action of the shaded poles determines the direction of flow of fluid to and from the work cylinder or other motor means, the amount of twist being controlled by the voltage impressed on the device and the twist of the armature being resisted by a hair spring with bimetal compensation means arranged to compensate for temperature changes which vary the resistance of the wire wound on the stators or fields of the shaded pole motors,
the permeability of the iron, the tension of the hair spring, and the viscosity of the oil.
A further specific object of this invention is to provide an electromagnetic pump of the above 7 character in which there is no supporting hearing for the armatures but in which the armatures freely float due to their magnetic suspension from the field of the shaded pole motors, and in which the armatures twist or turn as a unit, such armatures being rigidly attached to each other so far as twisting movement is concerned but being free to independently vibrate.
It has been found that with vibratory pumps of this nature that the amount of torque varied with the amount the armatures projected into the field structure or pole structure of the motors. This invention has the additional object of providing means whereby the torque exerted by the armatures due to the shaded pole action 2. is substantially independent of the amount the armatures project into the pole or field structure of the motors and is responsive only to the voltage variation.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical elevation of the pump with parts broken away and parts in section.
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the pump with parts broken away.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary view looking down on one of the motor elements with other parts omitted.
Figure 4 is a sectional view on the line l4 line 'l'! of Figure 6, the clearances being exaggerated for the sake of clearance.
Figure 8 is a sectional view on the line 8-8 of Figure 1, such view showing merely the lower spring.
Figure 9 is a sectional detail on the line 9-9 of Figure 6.
Figure 10 is a sectional view on the line Ill-l0 of Figure 9.
The torque or twist of the armatures is resisted by means of a hair spring or helical spring 9, the outer end of which is connected to the armature assembly by means of a rigid arm H], see Figures 1 and 8. The inner end of the helical spring or hair spring 9 is connected by means of a screw H and spool-like members IE to the inner end of a helical bimetal strip 53. The outer end of the bimetal strip !3 is connected to the rigid body portion M of the structure by means of a rigid arm It. The body portion M of the structure may consist of a pump cylinder, as indicated, in which a piston is is positioned.- This piston is provided with a piston rod i! which is connected to the operating lever it of a switch or other member is. It is to be understood that any suitable motor means could be provided in place of the work cylinder i l. The work cylinder is merely used as an illustration. The work cylinder has opposite ends connected to the pump by means of pipes 28 and 2 i It is to be noted that the armatures 5 project outwardly from the field structure of the motors as is shown in Figures 1, and 6. These armatures comprise a group of laminations 22, a mild steel ring member 23, and a cup-like member 2'3 which binds the ring member 23 to the laminations when the end nuts 25 are tightened. The armature also comprises a copper sleeve 26 which is secured to the member 23 and extends only up to the laminations so that only a part of the magnetic structure of the armature is covered by the copper member 26.
It has been found that with the ordinary type of rotors customarily employed, that the torque varies with the amount the rotor projects nto the field or pole structure of the stator. forming the rotors in the manner hereinabove described, it has been found possible by proportioning the copper sleeve and laminations 22, as shown in Figure 6 for instance, to have substantially uniform torque or twist irrespective of the depth to which the armature projects into the field of the motor.
The armatures, it will be seen from the description thus far given, vibrate axially or 1ongitudinally in a rapid manner in accordance with cyclic variations of the alternating current. They also impart a twist to the armature assembly and this twist is opposed by the hair spring 9. The amount of twist is determined by the voltage impressed on the field coils. It is to be noted particularly that the motors twist together as a unit, but they vibrate independently of each other. If desired, the leaf spring I and the mass of weight of the armatures may be so proportioned, taking into consideration the oil Within which they are immersed, that resonance is obtained at the line frequency. The vibration of the armatures axially is towards and from each other and each armature vibrates independently of the other.
The axial vibration of the armatures is utilized to pump oil or other fiuid to the work cylinder or motor means Hi. This is accomplished by providing each armature with a piston. For example, the upper armature is provided with a pumping piston 2'5 and the lower armature is provided with a piston 23, below which is positioned a valve portion or valve member 29. This valve member as is made by forming a flat on each side of a portion of the piston rod of the lower armature. The piston rod of the upper armature is indicated by the reference character 3!. It will be seen that each of the piston rods is provided with an outer guiding portion 32.
The pistons 2 and 28 and the guiding portions 29 will be set, see Figure '1.
32 fit Within a sleeve 33 which forms a pumping cylinder. Obviously, as the pistons approach each other, oil will be forced or pumped from the cylinder and will escape past the outlet valve 36. As the pistons recede from each other, oil will be drawn past the inlet valve 35. These vibrations are minute but they are very rapid and serve to pump a sufficient quantity of oil to operate the motor means."
The twisting or turning of the armature assembly determines the angle at which the valve This valve, it will be seen, determines the direction of flow of oil to and from the work cylinder. For example, the pump outlet or pressure supply port is indicated by the reference character 3% in Figure 7 and the exhaust or discharge passage by the reference character 31. The pipes 253 and 2! are connected to the delivery passages 38 and 89. It is apparent that when the valve 29 occupies the position shown, see Figure 7, that oil will flow from the passage or port 3% to the passage or port 38 and consequently to the pipe 2c and to the left-hand end of the work cylinder as viewed in Figure 1. The oil discharged from the righthand end of the work cylinder through the pipe 2i will pass through the port or passage 39 to the discharge port or passage 37. As the voltage varies, the position of the valve 29 changes. It will move in such a manner as to connect one end of the work cylinder with the pressure outlet port of the pump when the voltage drops below a predetermined value since the helical spring 9 will turn the valve in the opposite direction from that produced by the torque of the armatures. The balance between the torque produced by the armatures and that of the helical spring 8 determines the position of the valve.
It is clear that when the temperature varies, that there are various changes in the character of the pump mechanism. For example, the esistance of the wire of which the field coils are composed varies as does the permeability of the iron. Also the tension of the hair spring and the viscosity of the oil varies as the temperature changes. The bimetal, helical member it which is connected to the hair spring centrally thereof changes its position and consequently changes the tension of the hair spring to compensate for the above changes so that the valve 29, see Figure '7, will occupy a definite position for a definite voltage impressedon the field coils irrespective of temperature variations.
It is to be noted that the armatures are magnetically suspended from the fields and do not require any bearing to support them. The pistons and the guiding portion 32 attached to the armatures fit within the pumping sleeve or cylinder 33 and properly center the rotors without, however, supporting them. They freely vibrate in accordance with the cyclic variations of the alternating current and freely adjust themselves in their angular position in accordance with the voltage impressed on the motors. In this way, the opera tion of the hydraulic motor means is controlled in accordance with voltage variations.
It has been found that the device may be simply made and is effective in operation. It is reliable and is corrected, as stated hereinabove, for temperature variations so that a very accurate response to voltage variations is obtained. Also it has been found that a fairly high pressure amply sufiicient to operate the hydraulic motor means is obtained due to the longitudinal, rapid vibrations of the armatures or rotors.
It is to be noted particularly that the field structure of the motors is rigidly held or suspended from the body portion or work cylinder of the device and that the armatures are connected to each other in such a manner that they may independently vibrate but add their tendency to twist in opposition to the twist of the hair spring. All of this is accomplished without requiring any support for revolubly supporting the armatures. The armatures themselves are axially suspended or supported by magnetic force and they are each rigidly attached to their supporting leaf springs so that there is, in reality, no frictional loss at this point and the utmost freedom of adjustment oi the armatures angularly with rerespect to voltage variation is thus obtained.
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.
