20210348607 · 2021-11-11 ·

A magnetic coupling assembly includes a first balancing magnet positioned and surrounding drive magnets and, across a gap, a second balancing magnet and surrounding driven magnets. The drive magnets when rotated drive the driven magnets to rotate. The balancing magnets generate a repulsive force, which counterbalances an attractive force generated by the drive magnets and driven magnets. The assembly may be utilized in a pump for contactless coupling of a motor shaft to a pump shaft. The driven side of the assembly may be hermetically sealed, such as with a liquid crystal polymer boundary interposed in the gap.

Rotary Piston Machine and Method for Producing a Seal in a Rotary Piston Machine
20220003117 · 2022-01-06 ·

A rotary piston engine and a method for manufacturing a sealing in a rotary piston engine are described. The rotary piston engine has at least two piston pairs respectively connected via a link, the pistons of which are arranged at opposite ends of the links and, during operation, circulate on an at least approximately circular path in a piston housing, such that varying working volumes are enclosed between the pistons of different piston pairs during the circulation and that, via a sealing provided between the piston housing and the pistons, a fluid flow between the enclosed working volumes is at least impeded. The technical solution described is characterized in that the sealing is formed by a gap between the pistons and the piston housing and surfaces of the pistons and the piston housing delimiting the gap at least at times are irregularly structured.

OIL-FREE WATER-INJECTED SCREW AIR COMPRESSOR

An oil-free water-injected screw air compressor comprises a housing that encloses two rotors for generating compressed air, an air water separator for separating the water from the compressed air. Injecting water during compression can remove the heat of compression and thus enhance efficiency of compression. However, injecting water may complicate bearing lubrication. According to the present subject matter, these challenges are tackled using a sealing system for isolation of bearing lubricant from water used for cooling.
