Abstract:
The invention relates to a rotary piston machine which operates as a pump, a compressor, or a motor and which has a rotor (2) and a counter rotor (4), said counter rotor (4) being disposed opposite the rotor (2). The rotor (2) has a first end surface (6) with a first toothing system (8). The counter rotor (4) has a second end surface (16) with a second toothing system (18). The first toothing system (8) is made of at least one first tooth (10) and a first tooth space (12). The second toothing system (18) is made of at least one second tooth (20) and a second tooth space (22) with a second tooth base (24). The toothing systems (8, 18) are in engagement with each other such that first working chambers (28) are formed by means of the meshing of the first teeth (10) of the first toothing system (8) and the second teeth (20) of the second toothing system (18), wherein volumes that are formed by the first working chambers (28) are changed by means of the meshing of the teeth (10, 20). The rotor (2) has a first rotational axis (I), and the counter rotor (4) has a second rotational axis (II). The first rotational axis (I) and the second rotational axis (II) enclose a first angle (f) that is not equal to 0°. A second extension (26) of a second surface line of the second tooth base (24), the first rotational axis (I), and the second rotational axis (II) intersect at a common central point (M). According to the invention, a second angle (ß) that is enclosed between the second extension (26) and the second rotational axis (II) is smaller than 45°.

Abstract:
Machine à déplacement positif rotatif pour un fluide de travail compressible, comportant deux éléments coniques (26, 28) qui s'engrènent intérieurement, et qui sont dotés d'axes excentriques (48, 50). Les éléments (26, 28) sont munis de rainures en spirale (34, 38) et de parties intermédiaires pleines (36, 40) qui coopèrent pour créer des chambres fermées (66) de volume variable, tout en se déplaçant axialement d'une extrémité à l'autre. L'élément intérieur (28) possède un mouvement hypocyclique par rapport à l'élément extérieur (26). La profondeur radiale des rainures (34, 38) varie axialement le long des éléments (26, 28) et dans chaque plan transversal est égale à deux fois l'excentricité des axes (48, 50) des éléments (26, 28), et l'angle du pas de la spirale au niveau du cône de pas varie en continu dans le sens axial.
Abstract:
A compressor design includes a male rotor (10) having one or more helical lobes (12) and a female rotor (14) having one or more helical grooves (16). The male rotor is mounted on a first shaft and the female rotor is mounted on a second shaft. The male rotor is positioned in a first section of a chamber and the female rotor is positioned in a second section of the chamber. Fluid enters the chamber at an inlet, and when the rotors are driven, the lobes of the male rotor fit into the grooves of the female rotor, causing compression and movement of the fluid towards an outlet or discharge end where the compressed fluid is discharged. The configuration of the lobe and groove helix, the lobe and groove profile, and the outer diameter of the rotors can be varied in different combinations to form different rotors.
Abstract:
A pump comprises a housing (10, 210, 300, 410), the housing having an interior defining a rotor path (10, 210, 300, 410), an inlet (111, 211) formed in the housing (10, 210, 300, 410) at a first position on said rotor path, an outlet (12, 212) formed in the housing (10, 210, 300, 410) at a second position on said rotor path spaced from said first position. A rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) is rotatable in the housing. At least one first surface is formed on the rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) and seals against said rotor path of the housing (10, 210, 300, 410). At least one second surface is formed on said rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) circumferentially spaced from said first surface and forms a chamber with the rotor path that travels around said rotor path on rotation of the rotor (15, 315 350, 415) to convey fluid around the housing (10, 210, 300, 410) from the inlet (111, 211) to the outlet (12, 212). A resilient seal (114, 214) is formed in one piece with the housing (10, 210, 300, 410), located on said rotor path and so extends between the outlet (12, 212) and the inlet (111, 211) in the direction of rotation of said rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) that the first rotor surface seals with, and resiliently deforms, the seal (114, 214), as the rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) rotates around the rotor path within the housing to prevent fluid flow from said outlet (12, 212) to said inlet (111, 211) past the seal. A passage (101, 201) may be provided to supply fluid to an under surface of the seal (114, 214) at a pressure that acts to urge the seal (114, 214) against the rotor (15, 315, 350, 415). The rotor path may be frustoconical with the first surface of the rotor (15, 315, 350, 415) also being frustoconical and being a mating fit with the rotor path.
Abstract:
The invention relates to hydro and pneumatic engineering and can be used as a pump, a compressor or a motor. The inventive gerotor type machine for displacing liquids and gases along the longitudinal axis thereof comprises a stator, a screw rotor and a shell. The rotor is arranged in the shell in such a way that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof. The shell is disposed inside the stator in such a way that it is rotatable and that working chambers are formed between the mating surfaces thereof. The passage area between the rotor and shell and between the shell and stator is embodied in such a way that it is variable along the longitudinal axis of the machine. Said rotor and shell are embodied in such a way that they are displaceable by an axial force for tightening the rotor, shell and stator to each other, thereby automatically taking up clearances when they are formed. The inventive gerotor type machine makes it possible to automatically compensate the clearances formed between the rotor and shell and between the shell and stator.
