Definitions

  • Rotary fluid pressure device having radial pistons in radial cylinders in a rotor rotatable within a housing in which the rotor is divided into two axial sections with a chamber therebetween supplied with pressure from the pressure side of the device so the rotor sections are pressed in sealing engagement with the inner walls of the housing.
  • the present invention relates to a hydrostatic radial piston pump for increasing the pressure of a flowing medium, in which the radially arranged cylinders are provided in a rotor adapted to rotate together with the drive shaft, and in which the passages for the admission of a pressureless medium communicate with said cylinders from a suction conduit to the cylinders or for the withdrawal of the pressure medium from the cylinders to the pressure conduit lead into one of two, or into both lateral surfaces of the rotor and from there continue in the housing.
  • an axially displaceable pressure member which has one of its lateral surfaces subjected to the influence of a pressure medium in sealing engagement with the corresponding lateral surface of the rotor.
  • the pressure member journalled in the housing is likewise provided with passages which on one hand communicate with the suction or pressure conduit of the pump, and on the other hand communicate with the flow passages in the rotor.
  • the suction and pressure passages are exchangeable. It is necessary that the rotor at the transition areas of the rotating passages to the passages is well sealed which are arranged in the housing, or in those portions which are non-rotatably connected to said housing, in order to prevent any leakage at said transition areas. This is realized by pressing the pressure member within the range of the mouth of the housing passages in axial direction against the rotor which forms a single piece with the shaft.
  • This pressure member is pressed against said rotor by a pressure medium in such a way that at these sliding areas between the rotating and stationary parts a reliable seal will be effected.
  • the pressure member has those side surfaces thereof which are remote from the sliding surface provided with two concentric annular passage surfaces, whereas the housing has two, concentric annular cylinders on corresponding diameters.
  • One of the thus formed cylinder chambers communicates with the suction conduit, whereas the other one of said cylinder chambers communicates with the pressure conduit.
  • FIGURE 1 illustrates a longitudinal section of a double pump according to the present invention with two axially adjacent rows of cylinders, said section being taken in the direction of the eccentricity between the rotor and the housing.
  • FIGURE 2 is a vertical section through a modified double pump according to the invention, said section being taken perpendicularly with regard to the eccentricity between the runner and the housing.
  • FIGURES 3 and 4 respectively illustrate two further modifications of the gap chamber or chambers between the two rotor portions.
  • FIGURE 5 illustrates a section through a modified pump according to the invention in which the resultant of the pressing force employed for sealing purposes is in alignment with the resultant of the pump pressure of the sealing surface.
  • the pump according to the present invention is characterized primarily in that the rotor comprises two axially arranged adjacent parts which are non-rotatable with regard to the driving shaft but are axially displaceable relative to each other.
  • the pump according to the invention is furthermore characterized in that between the two rotor parts there is provided at least one gap chamber which communicates with the respective pressure conduit, the arrangement being such that the pressure medium intorduced into the gap chamber presses the rotor portion or the rotor portions against the respective sealing surfaces of the housing.
  • Such an arrangement of the pump will, while yielding a proper seal at the transition area of the'suction and pressure conduits from the stationary housing part to the rotating rotor and vice versa, reduce the manufactuing costs for the pump, especially an expensive machining of the pump housing. Furthermore, the dimensions of the pump, especially in axial direction, are reduced, and the journalling of the driving shaft is improved.
  • the gap chamber filled with pressure medium for pressing the rotor parts against the axial lateral surfaces of the "stationary housing parts (or, if desired, a plurality of such gap chamber) is provided between the rotor parts Therefore, the design of the housing is completely independent of the design of said gap chamber'or "gap chambers.
  • each space chamber is formed primarily in the form of an annular recess provided on at least one of those lateral surfaces of the runner parts which face each other.
  • piston seals of any standard type, for instance, a highly elastic sealing ring.
  • the gap chamber communicates through a preferably narrow base with an annular groove Connected to the pressure conduit, said annular groove being arranged on the axially outer lateral surface of at least one of the runner parts and being coaxial to the axis of rotation.
  • pressure springs are, in conformity with a further development of the invention arranged between the two runner parts.
  • a fitting with passages therethrough. That lateral surface of said fitting which is adjacent said rotor is plane while the lateral surface adjacent the housing is spherical.
  • the two runner parts which are axially displaceable on a'splined shaft profileof the driving shaft are in the axial range of said splined shaft profile near their axially outer lateral surface provided with a cylindrical recess each.
  • Each of said recesses has associated therewith a cylindrical groove arranged at the respective areas of the drive shaft, and in each of said recesses and grooves there-is inserted a highly elastic sealing ring and axially outwardly there is provided a transversely divided supporting ring carrying said sealing ring.
  • the said recess has a larger axial width than the groove because such a design makes possible an effortless assembly and disassembly of the sealing rings and of the supporting rings.
  • a double pump designed in the above-outlined manner accordingto the present invention works highly satisfactorily when the pressure passages and the suction passages of the two cylinder rows are brought together in the housing and when the common pressure line is connected to a single place of consumption. In many instances where such double pumps are employed, it is also highly desirable to connect each cylinder row to a place of consumption of its own.
  • both cylinder rows communicate with the gap chamber common thereto, it will be appreciated that at non-uniform load of said cylinder rows, undesired compensating fiows will occur from the conduit connected to the cylinder row with the higher pressure, through annular grooves, the annular bores and the gap chamber to the pressure conduit which is connected to the cylinder row with the lower pressure. These compensating flows cause losses which are all the higher the greater the pressure drop between the two pressure conduits.
  • the pressure in the gap chamber adjusts itself to a medium value between the pressures in the two pressure conduits.
  • the medium pressure forming in the gap chamber will no longer be sufficient for properly sealing the sliding surfaces on the pump side which has the higher pressure.
  • This drawback can, in conformity with a further development of the invention be eliminated by providing each of the bores between an annular groove and the gap chamber with a check valve opening toward said gap chamber, preferably in an axis parallel blind bore. In this way, the pressure in the gap chamber will always be maintained at the respective highest pressure prevailing in one of the two pressure conduits, but the flow-through of pressure medium toward the pressure conduit will be interrupted by the lower pressure.
  • Said compensating bore didectly interconnects one of the cylinder chambers of this runner part wth the gap chamber, preferably through one of the lines bores.
  • This compensating bore merely has to have a rather narrow cross-section because only minute quantities of pressure medium have to pass through for compensating the pressure.
  • this compensating bore it will be appreciated that when the working pressure drops in the cylinder rows of the two runner parts, a direct pressure compensation will be obtained between the gap chamber and the pressure conduit with the higher working pressure.
  • each of the rotor sections by means of a common splined shaft profile of the drive shaft, which profile extends over the axial extension of the two rotor sections, is non-rotatably connected to said drive shaft but is axially displaceable thereon.
  • the splined shaft profile of the drive shaft is, in conformity with a further development of the invention interrupted within the range of the gap between the two rotor sections by a turned-out portion for inserting a transversely divided fitting ring which preferably has the same outer diameter as said splined shaft profile.
  • the axial end faces of this fitting ring are engaged by the axial end faces directed toward the gap chamber and pertaining to protruding portions of the splined shaft profile on said rotor sections.
  • the gap chamber on the radially inner side is sealed by a highly elastic sealing ring which rests directly on the outer surface of the transversely divided fitting ring. Since the sealing ring is under outer overpressure, it simultaneously prevents a radial escape of the two sections of the transversely divided fitting ring under the influence of the centrifugal forces occurring during the rotation of the rotor.
  • a design with two concentrically arranged gap chambers has proved advantageous of which one gap chamber is connected to the two flow passages leading to the pressure side of the pump whereas the other gap chamber is connected to the two flow passages connected to the suction side of the pump.
  • Such a design makes it possible to exchange pressure passages and suction passages.
  • the two rotor sections have those axial lateral surfaces which face each other provided with a turned-out portion and/or a protrusion which in radial direction are confined by coaxial cylinder surfaces.
  • the turned-out portion of one rotor section has associated therewith a protrusion of the other runner section located at the same medium distance from the axis of rotation.
  • the radial extension of said protrusion is less than the associated turned-out portion so that between each two confining cylindrical surfaces of the turned-out portion which face each other and the associated protrusion, a highly elastic sealing ring can be arranged.
  • the radially inner sealing ring snugly engages the fitting ring.
  • the outside of this sealing ring is surrounded by the radially inner cylindrical confining surface of the protrusion of one rotor section.
  • the occurring resultant pressing force acts along the axis whereas the resultant force of the pump pressure acts outside said axis and, more specifically, in conformity with the center of gravity of the flow-through openings for the respective conduits (pressure and suction passages) in the stationary control level or control deflection.
  • a tilting moment is exerted upon the rotor and the sealing surfaces perpendicular to the axis of rotation to bring about an edging of the rotor.
  • additional pressure surfaces for countering the tilting moment would involve additional costs and space. Partioularly, additional space requirement is a rather important drawback with compact pumps aside from the fact that also the friction losses increase.
  • the same number of cylinders is provided for the two rotor sections while two partial pressure chambers each which are located adjacent to each other in axial direction are aligned with each other and are provided with a sealing piston common thereto.
  • the size of the surfaces of the pressure chambers acted upon by the pressure medium will determine the pressing force exerted upon the sealing surfaces. This is of great importance for the economy of the pump. It is suggested to make the total of the surfaces of the sealing pistons directly acted upon by the working pressure (when seen in axial direction) approximately from 1.4 to 1.8 times as great as the total of the surfaces of the pressure passages in the control level or control deflection of the housing.
  • Such surface ratio takes into consideration the fact that the working pressure in the control level is present and effective also outside the flow passages, i.e. in the gap, and, more specifically, within the limits between the maximum value at the outer surface of the flow passages and zero in a range of the gap remote from said outer surfaces of said flow passages.

  • the rotor sections 3, 4 have radially bored cylinders S and 6 with pistons 7 and 8 respectively arranged therein.

  • Said ring 10 is by means of lateral members 11 journalled in bearings 12, 13 in housing 19 with a fixed or adjustable eccentricity. In this way, it will be assured that the barrel ring 10 and the lateral members 11 Will rotate together with the drive shaft 1 so that the guiding members 9 will on ring 10 carry out only a slight sliding movement, in conformity with the respective eccentricity.
  • cylinders 5 and 6 Connected to cylinders 5 and 6 are flow passages 15 and 20, respectively. These passages are in communication with the suction and pressure side of the pump, depending on the respective position occupied by each cylinder during a revolution of the drive shaft 1. Between the stationary housing 9 of the pump and the rotor sections 3 and 4 there are in axial direction arranged fitting members 17 and 22 each of which is provided with passages 16, 21, respectively.

  • the said fitting members may be omitted and the rotor sections may be pressed directly against the axially inwardly directed lateral surfaces of the housing 19. Furthermore, the said fitting members may be connected to the housing for rotation therewith or may be connected to the rotor for rotation therewith.
