Definitions
- the present invention relates to an internal gear pump and an internal gear motor.
- Patent Document 1 discloses that one pressure introduction groove is provided in a cover, which is a sealing member that abuts on the side surfaces of both gears, and is formed between the crescent and the tooth grooves of the gears. The enclosed space and the high pressure area are communicated with each other.
- the inventors of the present invention have found that in a conventional internal gear pump provided with a single pressure introduction groove having a monotonic shape, when the gear rotates at a high speed, the gear rotates at a low speed. It was found that the timing of the pressure rise in the tooth space due to rotation is delayed compared to the conventional method.
- the inventor of the present invention has conducted extensive research and found that, in conventional internal gear pumps, the difference in the timing of the pressure rise in the tooth spaces between high and low rotations is large. Therefore, when the rotation speed of the pump is changed from low to high, the ratio of the high pressure region in the liquid feeding space changes greatly. As a result, the pressure balance is lost, and the performance and durability of the pump may be lowered. The same can be said for an internal gear motor having a configuration similar to this phenomenon.
- the main object of the present invention is to reduce the difference in the timing of pressure changes in the tooth spaces between low rotation and high rotation.
- a first aspect of the present invention includes an internal gear rotatably fitted in a body, an external gear that internally contacts and meshes with the internal gear, and a transmission gear formed between the internal gear and the external gear.
- a filler piece that partitions a liquid space into a high pressure region and a low pressure region;
- a communication groove is formed for communicating between the surrounding space surrounded by the tooth groove of one of the gears and the high pressure region, and the communication groove communicates with the surrounding space as the rotation phase of the two gears advances.
- the present invention relates to an internal gear pump which is formed such that the cross-sectional area to be pumped continuously increases and the rate of increase increases at an accelerated rate.
- an internal gear is rotatably fitted in a body, an external gear is in contact with and meshes with the internal gear, and the gear is formed between the internal gear and the external gear.
- a filler piece that divides a liquid feeding space into a high-pressure region and a low-pressure region;
- a communication groove is formed for communicating between the surrounding space surrounded by the tooth grooves of at least one of the gears and the low-pressure region, and the communication groove extends into the surrounding space as the rotation phase of the two gears advances.
- the present invention relates to an internal gear motor in which a communicating cross-sectional area continuously increases and the rate of increase increases at an accelerated rate.
- the cross-sectional area of the communicating groove communicating with the surrounding space continuously increases as the rotation phase of both gears advances, and the rate of increase increases at an accelerating rate.
- the amount of hydraulic fluid (such as oil) introduced from the communication grooves into the tooth spaces of the gear can be increased at an accelerated rate with rotation. Therefore, compared to the conventional gear in which only one monotonic communication groove is formed, the timing of the pressure change in the tooth spaces during low rotation of both gears is not greatly advanced, and the tooth spaces during high rotation are improved. Only the timing of pressure changes within can be greatly advanced.
- the internal gear pump and the internal gear motor it is possible to reduce the difference in the timing of the pressure change in the tooth spaces between low rotation and high rotation, thereby improving the performance and durability of the pump.
