Definitions
- the subject invention relates to fuel pumps for gas turbine engines, and more particularly, to variable displacement vane pumps which are used in applications that require high reliability and a predicted failure mode.
- variable displacement vane pumps are being developed within the aerospace industry as an alternative to traditional fixed displacement gear pumps.
- An example of a variable displacement vane pump is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,545,014 to Sundberg et al., the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety to the extent that it does not conflict with the present disclosure.
- Vane pumps traditionally include, among other things, a housing, a cam member and a rotor supported within the housing by axially opposed journal bearings.
- the housing defines an interior chamber, a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet and the cam member and rotor are disposed within the interior chamber.
- the cam member has a central bore which defines the circumferential boundary of the internal pumping chamber.
- Mounted for rotational movement within the central bore of the cam member is a rotor supported by axial opposed journal bearings.
- the rotor element has circumferentially spaced apart slots machined therein which support corresponding radially movable vane elements.
- the vanes of the rotor element of the pump traverse at least four distinct arcuate regions which make up the 360 degree revolution.
- the first region is the inlet arc segment in which fluid is received into the pumping chamber and over this region the bucket volume increases.
- the second region is the discharge arc segment in which pressurized fluid is discharged from the pumping chamber and over this region the bucket volume decrease.
- seal arc segments separate the inlet and discharge arc segments and represent the regions through which the bucket volume remains substantially constant.
- fluid at a first pressure is fed into the pumping chamber through the housing inlet, and into the space defined between adjacent vane elements, known as the bucket.
- the configuration of the cam member causes the vanes to retract within the corresponding slots. This causes the volume defined by the bucket to decrease. Since the amount of fluid received into an inlet bucket is greater than that contained within the con-esponding discharge bucket, a fluid volume equivalent in size to the volumetric difference is discharged or displaced through the outlet port at a pressure equal to the downstream pressure which must be overcome.
- variable displacement pumps over conventional vane pumps, namely fixed displacement gear pumps, is that they solve the problem where excess heat generation becomes a crucial impediment to pump performance. Also, a variable displacement vane pump can be used to eliminate certain fuel flow metering components by utilizing the pump as the metering device.
- variable displacement vane pump technology One of the disadvantages associated with variable displacement vane pump technology is the inability to predict the failure mode. As a result, there is a reluctance to implement this technology in applications, such as high performance aircraft, that require high reliability and a predicted failure mode.
- a conventional fixed displacement gear pump the failure mechanism is well known. Typically as the pump degrades, the performance drops off far enough so that one cannot start the engine, thus a safe failure occurs.
- the cantilevered load that the pressure puts on each vane can become so high that a catastrophic failure of a vane can occur during pump operation and effectively destroys the whole pumping system without warning. In an applications such as helicopter fuel systems, this type of failure can cause damage to the control system and engine and result in the loss of life. In order to prevent such an occurrence, the variable displacement vane pump must be inspected and maintained frequently.
- variable displacement vane pumps for use with gas turbine engines which include a mechanism for predicting the failure mode of the pump thereby preventing an operational failure.
- the vane pump includes a pump housing, a cam member, a rotor member and a mechanism for communicating a high pressure fluid from the discharge arc region to the inlet arc region so as to prevent pump start-up when a predetermined wear state has been reached.
- the pump housing typically includes a cylindrical interior chamber which defines a central axis tlirough which a vertical centerline and a horizontal centerline extend.
- the cam member is mounted for pivotable movement within the interior chamber of the pump housing about a fulcrum aligned with the vertical centerline of the interior chamber.
- the cam member has a bore extending therethrough which defines a circumferential surface of a pumping cavity.
- the circumferential surface of the pumping cavity includes a discharge arc segment, an inlet arc segment and seal arc segments separating the inlet arc segment and the discharge arc segments from one another.
- the cylindrical rotor member is mounted for rotational movement within the bore of the cam member about the central axis of the interior chamber.
- the rotor member has a central body portion with first and second axially opposed end surfaces and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart radially extending vane slots formed therein.
- the mechanism for communicating a high pressure fluid from the discharge arc region to the inlet arc region so as to prevent pump start-up activates when the tip surface of each vane element has worn a predetermined amounted with respect to the undervane portion of each vane element.
- the mechanism for communicating a high pressure fluid from the discharge arc region to the inlet arc region when the tip surface of each vane element has worn a predetermined amount includes arcuate channels formed in the first end surface of the body portion of the rotor member.
- the arcuate channels each extend between each vane slot. It is envisioned that the arcuate channels are spaced from the central axis by a radial distance and the radial distance defines the predetermined amount of wear.
- the means for communicating a high pressure fluid from the discharge arc region to the inlet arc region when the tip surface of each vane element has worn a predetermined amount includes arcuate channels formed in the second end surface of the body portion of the rotor member
- the predetermined amount of wear is reached when the undervane portion of each vane element at a point in the pumping cavity is positioned radially outward of the arcuate channels formed in the body portion of the rotor. As a result of this relative positioning, fluid is allowed to communicate from the discharge arc segment to the inlet arc segment of the pumping cavity.
- the circumferential surface of the pump cavity includes a discharge arc segment of about 150 degrees, a first seal arc segment of about 30 degrees, an inlet arc segment of about 150 degrees and a second seal arc segment of about 30 degrees.
- first and second axially spaced apart end plates are disposed within the interior chamber of the pump housing. Each end plate has a first surface which is adjacent to the rotor member and forms an axial end portion of the pumping cavity. Each end plate is spaced from the rotor member so as to allow frictionless rotation of the rotor member within the pumping cavity.
- the rotor member further includes a plurality of substantially axial fluid passages formed in the central body portion of the rotor. Each passage is positioned between the plurality of circumferentially spaced apart radial vane slots and provides a path through the rotor body portion for fluid to communicate axially from the pumping cavity to the first and second end plate.
- the subject application is also directed to a vane pump which includes, among other things, a pump housing a cam member, a rotor member.
- the rotor member being substantially cylindrical and mounted for rotational movement within the bore of the cam member about the central axis of the interior chamber.
- the rotor member includes a central body portion with first and second axially opposed end surfaces and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart radially extending vane slots formed therein.
- each vane slot supports a corresponding vane element mounted for radial movement therein.
- Each vane element has a radially outer tip surface adapted for slideably engaging the circumferential surface of the pumping cavity and a radially inner undervane portion within each vane slot.
- the first end surface of the body portion has arcuate channels formed therein which extend between each vane slot. The arcuate channels providing a path for high pressure fluid to leak from the discharge arc segment to the inlet arc segment of the pumping cavity when each vane tip surface has worn such that the undervane portion is positioned radially outward of the arcuate channels.
- the present application is also directed to a variable displacement vane pump which includes a pump housing, a cam member, a rotor member, a leak path, first and second axially spaced apart end plates.
- the leak path communicates fluid from the discharge arc region to the inlet arc region when the cam member is in a start-up position and each undervane portion is positioned radially outward of the leak path.
- the leak path includes arcuate channels formed in the first end surface of the body portion of the rotor member which extend between each vane slot.
- Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a variable displacement vane pump constructed in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present application which includes a pump housing, a pivotal cam member, and a rotor member with associated vane elements;
- Fig. 2 is a side elevational view in cross-section of the vane pump of Fig. 1 illustrating the manner in which fluid is received into and discharged from the pumping chamber;
- Fig. 3 is a side elavational view of the face of the end plate of the pump of Fig. 1 illustrating a series of channels and recesses formed therein;
- Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the rotor of Fig. 2, the rotor having arcuate recesses or channels cut in each end of the body portion between adjacent vane slots;
- Vane pump 10 includes a pump housing 12 defining an interior chamber which supports a cam member 14 and a rotor member 16.
- Rotor member 16 includes a plurality of radially extending slots 17. Each slot is configured to support a corresponding vane element 18.
- Cam member 14 is mounted for pivotal movement within pump housing 12 about a pivot pin 20 that defines a fulcrum, so as to vary the displacement of vane pump 10.
- Cam member 14 includes a one-piece body that defines a bore 22 forming a cam chamber.
- the circular bore 22 defines a smooth continuous circumferential surface 24 of the pumping cavity, making continuous contact with the outer tip surfaces 21 of each vane element 18.
- a lever 25 extends from the body of cam member 14 and is pivotably connected to actuation piston assembly 15, for varying the position of the cam member 14 relative to the rotor member 16.
- each vane element 18 fits snugly within a corresponding slot 17 and functions like a piston as it is depressed radially inwardly during movement of the rotor member 16 through the high pressure discharge arc region 62 (Fig. 3) of the pumping chamber.
- Each slot 17 has a radially inner undervane cavity 19 defining an area that is open to low inlet pressure when the vane element 18 is in the inlet arc region 60 ( Fig. 3) of the pumping chamber, and to high discharge pressure when the vane element 18 is in the discharge arc region 62 of the pumping chamber and the seal arc regions 64a and 64b (Fig. 3) of the pumping chamber.
- the manner in which pressurized fluid is communicated to the undervane cavity will be described in more detail herein below with respect to Fig. 3.
- vane pump 10 further includes an inlet region 50 for admitting low pressure fluid into the pumping chamber and a discharge region 52 for discharging high pressure fluid from the pumping chamber.
- a main drive shaft 32 extends through the interior chamber of pump housing 12 along the longitudinal axis thereof for driving a central shaft member 34.
- Shaft member 34 is supported for rotation by opposed journal bearings 36a and 36b, and is keyed to rotor member 16 for imparting rotational motion thereto .
- Opposed sideplates 40 and 42 which are disposed within the interior chamber, form a sealed cavity between cam member 14 and rotor member 16, and provide inlet and discharge ports for the cavity.
- Axial spacer 30 is supported within the housing 12, between sideplates 40 and 42, and has a thickness that is slightly greater than the thickness of cam member 14. This allows the sideplates 40 and 42 to be tightly clamped against the spacer 30 by a plurality of threaded fasteners (not shown) while allowing small gaps to remain between the cam member 14 and the sideplates to reduce or eliminate friction therebetween.
- the 360 degree pumping chamber includes an inlet arc region 60, a discharge arc region 62 and sealing arc regions 64a and 64b positioned between the inlet and discharge arc regions 60 and 62.
- the inlet arc region 60 represents the portion of the pumping chamber in which the volume contained between adjacent vane elements (i.e., within the buckets) increases and low pressure fluid is received into the pumping chamber.
- the discharge arc region 62 is the portion of the pumping chamber in which the volume contained between adjacent vane elements decreases. In the seal arc regions 64a and 64b, the volume remains substantially constant.
- each vane element 18 When the rotor 16 rotates within the pumping chamber, the centrifugal force created thereby imparts a radially outward force on each vane elements 18. In addition, the pressurized fluid contained within adjacent buckets imparts a radially inward force on each adjacent vane element 18. Often, the opposed forces which are applied to each vane element 18 are not balanced. As a result, the vane tip 21 of each vane 18 is either subjected to excessive wear due to a net radially outward force or fluid leaks from within the bucket due to a net radially inward force. This reduces pumping efficiency. An ideal pump operating condition occurs when the pressure applied to the vane elements is balanced and the vane elements "float" within the slots defined in the rotor.
- Pump 10 is adapted and configured to correct the unbalanced vane condition by applying pressure to the undervane portion 23 of each vane element 18. More specifically, low pressure from within each bucket traversing the inlet region 60 is supplied to the undervane portion 23 of vane elements 18 within the inlet arc region 60. Similarly, the undervane portion 23 of the vanes traversing the discharge arc region 62 and the seal arc regions 64a and 64b are supplied with high pressure from the buckets located in the discharge arc region 62.
- the body portion 19 of rotor 16 includes a plurality of flow ports 84 formed therein.
- Each flow port 84 is positioned between the plurality of circumferentially spaced apart radial vane slots 17 and provides a path for fluid to flow from the pumping cavity to channels 66i and 66d ( seeFig 3) formed in end plate 40, or in both end plate 40 and 42.
- Each flow port 84 is substantially T-shaped and includes a radial conduit 85 and an axial conduit 86.
- Low pressure fluid from the inlet arc region 60 is received into arcuate outer channel 66i and then flows radially inward through passages 68a-e to arcuate inner channel 69i.
- the passages 68a-e and the inner channel 69i are also formed in face 44 of side plate 40.
- Inner channel 69i communicates with the undervane portion of each vane element 18 positioned within the inlet arc region 60.
- high pressure fluid from within the discharge arc region 62 is received by arcuate outer channel 66d. The fluid then flows radially inward through passages 67a-d to arcuate inner channel 69d.
- the passages 67a-d and the inner channel 69d are each machined into face 44 of side plate 40.
- Arcuate inner channel 69d communicates with the undervane portion of each vane element 18 positioned within the discharge arc region 62 and the sealing arc regions 64a and 64b.
- the quantity of channels and passages can be varied depending on the configuration of the pump and the associated operating pressures.
- the communication of pressurized fluid through the above described series of ports and channels to the undervane portion of each vane element functions to balance the forces imparted on the vanes or at least to ensure that a net force directed radially outward is applied thereto.
- variable displacement vane pump technology is the inability to predict the failure mode. Unlike conventional fixed displacement vane pumps, which will not start up when the pumping elements have experienced a pre-determined amount of wear, traditional variable displacement vane pumps fail without warning and often catastrophically during pump operation.
- Fuel pump 10 is adapted and configured to change the failure mode normally associated with variable displacement vane pump technology to one which is substantially similar to that of fixed displacement vane pumps. As illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4, a series of leak paths 87a and 87b are formed in ends 92a and 92b of body portion 19 of rotor member 16.
- porting connections of the pump can be achieved tlirough a variety of methods.
- Pump configurations can use various cuts in cams, sideplates and rotors to communicate different pressures for different reasons including, but not limited to, bearing lubrication, pressure balancing and the like.
- the preferred embodiment of the invention utilizes porting cuts in the rotor to provide for a controlled and predictable failure mode thus providing the vane pump with reliability similar to that of a fixed displacement pump.
