The invention relates to an eccentric screw pump, comprising at least one stator (1) composed of an elastic material and a rotor (2) that can be rotated in the stator (1), the stator (1) being surrounded by a stator casing (3) at least in some regions. The stator casing (3) consists of at least two casing segments (19) as a longitudinally divided casing and forms a stator clamping device, by means of which the stator (2) can be clamped against the rotor (1) in the radial direction. The pump is characterized in that the casing segments (19) have at least one clamping flange (20) having first clamping surfaces (21) at each end of the casing segments and that one or more clamping elements (22, 23), which can be displaced in the axial direction and have second clamping surfaces (24), are placed onto the clamping flange (20), the first clamping surfaces (21) and the second clamping surfaces (24) being designed in such a way and interacting in such a way that the stator casing (3) can be clamped against the stator in the radial direction in the course of an axial displacement of the clamping elements (22, 23).

A method for fixing rotary pistons in a rotary piston pump and a method for dismantling rotary pistons of a rotary piston pump, where the rotary piston pump has two counter-rotating rotary arranged in a pump space on drive shafts. The rotary pistons each include a seating for the drive shafts. The respective drive shaft is arranged and fixed with an end region in the seating of the respective rotary piston.

A fluid moving apparatus includes an electric motor having a rotor and a stator and a fluid displacement member. The rotor rotates relative to the stator on a common axis to generate a rotational output. The rotational output is provided to the fluid displacement member to power the fluid displacement member to one of move linearly along and rotate about the common axis. The stator includes one or more coils configured to power rotation of the rotor. The one or more coils extend circumferentially around and can be coaxial on the common axis.

A scroll compressor includes oil in an oil storage space that is brought into direct contact with and stirred with a discharge refrigerant. The scroll compressor includes a fixed scroll, an orbiting scroll coupled to one side of the fixed scroll, and a discharge cover coupled to another side of the fixed scroll and provided with a muffler hole communicating with a refrigerant discharge space and the oil storage space.

This invention relates to a waterborne fluoropolymer composition useful for the fabrication of Li-ion-Battery (LIB) electrodes. The fluoropolymer composition contains an organic carbonate compound, which is more environmentally friendly than other fugitive adhesion promoters currently used in waterborne fluoropolymer binders. An especially useful organic carbonate compound is ethylene carbonate (EC) and vinylene carbonate (VC), which are solids at room temperature, and other carbonates which are liquid at room temperature such as propylene carbonate, methyl carbonate and ethyl carbonate. The composition of the invention is low cost, environmentally friendly, safer, and has enhanced performance compared to current compositions.

In the vane pump comprising the housing, the vane, and the cap, the sliding surface of the cap is configured as arc shape in the view from the rotational axis direction and the width toward the sliding direction of the cap is configured to be smaller than the width at the sliding angle field which is virtual area for contacting the inner surface of the pump room among the circumference including the arc shape of the sliding surface of the cap and to be bigger than the width at the high loading area where the load added to the sliding surface which is bigger than the predetermined value among the sliding angle field.

In a gear pump, a gear chamber is defined in a housing hole of a housing. A pair of gears is housed in the gear chamber. The gears are rotatably supported at support holes of a pair of side plates via support shafts. As viewed in an axial direction of the support shafts during rotation of the gears, addendum circles of the gears displaced under a differential pressure between a low-pressure chamber and a high-pressure chamber form first contact points with respect to an inner peripheral surface that defines a housing hole. As viewed in the axial direction of the support shafts during rotation of the gears, the first contact points are covered with the side plates displaced under the differential pressure.

An anti-ripple injection method for injecting an anti-ripple signal into a control system of a pump is disclosed. The control system controls an electric motor via an electric motor drive, and the electric motor drives the pump. The anti-ripple signal causes pressure ripples in the pump output to be at least partially cancelled. The anti-ripple injection method comprises: injecting an anti-ripple signal of any waveform into the control system, the anti-ripple signal being represented by the following equation: f(θ)=Σ.sub.mA.sub.mcos(mθ+θ.sub.m), wherein θ is the rotation angle of the motor shaft, m is the order of a signal harmonic in the anti-ripple signal, A.sub.m and θm are parameters with respect to the m.sup.th signal harmonic. A control system of a pump including the anti-ripple injection apparatus, and a pump system including the control system are also disclosed.

A gear pump or a gear motor includes a casing, a helical drive gear, a helical driven gear, a drive-side space, and an idler-side space. The drive and driven gears mesh with each other in the casing to partition inside of the casing so as to include high and low pressure spaces. The drive-side and idler-side spaces are each configured to allow pressure therein to become higher than a pressure in the low-pressure space. The drive-side space faces an end portion of a drive shaft rotatably supporting the drive gear. The idler-side space faces an end portion of an idler shaft rotatably supporting the driven gear. The end portion of the drive shaft is pushed in a predetermined direction by working fluid supplied to the drive-side space. The end portion of the idler shaft is pushed in the predetermined direction by working fluid supplied to the idler-side space.
