A resin member capable of inhibiting generation of particles due to repeated bending thereof is provided. A rolling diaphragm 5 composed of a resin member has one surface formed as a liquid contact surface 37a, repeatedly bends when used, and has flexibility. A surface roughness of the liquid contact surface 37a at a portion 371 that bends is less than 0.40 μm as an arithmetic average roughness, and a total light reflectance of the liquid contact surface 37a at the portion 371 that bends is not less than 2.0%.

The present invention refers to a progressive cavity pump developed for tintometric dosing machines. The proposal set out in the present invention is to make precision dosages through pumping by just one stator and rotor stage. The PCP proposal enhances the traditional constructive arrangement for tintometric application. The object makes precision dosages through pumping by just one stator and rotor stage, reducing the length of the pump, facilitating the manufacture of its components and requiring less robustness of the transmission components and of the drive motor. Therefore, the present invention has a simplified transmission system, uses special geometry for fastening the stator, optimizes the bearing of the drive shaft and its sealing element, reduces the dimensions of the components and uses a low torque motor.

An additive manufacturing system comprising a substrate defining a major surface, a filament delivery device, and a computing device may be configured to perform various aspects of the techniques. The computing device may be configured to control the filament delivery device to deposit a filament on the substrate, the filament including a powder and a binder, wherein the binder is configured to be substantially removed from the filament and the powder includes a metal or alloy configured to be sintered to form an abradable layer.

Screw compressor element provided with a housing wherein a rotor is rotatably arranged by way of two bearings, respectively being a cylinder bearing (3) and a ball bearing (4), each provided with an inner ring (5, 6) and an outer ring (7, 8), separated by respectively cylindrical, or ball-shaped rolling elements (9, 10) that contact the inner ring (5, 6) and the outer ring (7, 8) at the location of a raceway (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b), characterised in that, next to the respective raceway (11a, 12a), the inner rings (5, 6) of the aforementioned bearings (3, 4) have a smaller outer diameter (B) than the respective raceway (11a, 12a) on the side facing the other bearing (3, 4) and in that next; to the respective raceway (11a, 12a), the inner rings (5, 6) of the bearings have a greater outer diameter (C, D) than the respective raceway (11a, 11b) on the side facing away from the other bearing (3, 4).

A fixed scroll member includes a fixed base and a spiral fixed tooth member mounted to the fixed base. An orbiting scroll member is made of a resin material and includes an orbiting base arranged to face the fixed base; and a spiral orbiting tooth member. A housing is configured to house the fixed scroll member and the orbiting scroll member with the fixed scroll member being fixed thereto. An orbiting slide surface is located to be radially outside of the orbiting base of the orbiting scroll member, and a housing slide surface is formed on a portion of the housing. The portion is made of a metal material and is arranged to face the orbiting slide surface. The orbiting slide surface is in slidable contact with the housing slide surface. The portion of the housing has an outer wall exposed to atmospheric air.

Disclosed is a gear pump (10) comprising a contra rotating gear element pair (30 and 40) mounted within a housing (20), each gear element having complementary gear teeth sets providing a pumping action in use, said teeth being formed from an annulus (34 and 44) of generally rigid construction mounted on a relatively flexible inner section (35 and 45), the gear pair being mounted such that their respective annuli are biased into resilient contact with the housing to provide a sliding seal.
