A pump having an adjustable delivery volume, including: a pump housing featuring a delivery chamber which includes a delivery chamber inlet for a fluid and a delivery chamber outlet for the fluid; a delivery member, which can be rotated within the delivery chamber, for delivering the fluid; an adjusting device featuring a setting structure, which is mounted such that it can move back and forth within the pump housing in order to adjust the delivery volume of the pump, and a helical spring for applying a spring force, which acts in a setting direction, to the setting structure, wherein the windings of the helical spring are enclosed by an envelope lying on the outside of the helical spring wherein the cross-sectional area of the envelope as measured transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the spring changes progressively in the longitudinal direction of the spring.

High pressure pumping system

A pump technology that provides for more effective and efficient transfer of liquids, such as petroleum products and components, to and through pipelines. Such a technology can comprise a type of external gear pump that creates higher flow, resulting in higher pressures in the pipeline, to move the liquids, while providing for longer pump life, simpler and less maintenance, and fewer undesired conditions, with a smaller footprint, in a cost-effective system. Further, one or more portions of the pump can be configured to be easily replaceable to provide for maintenance in place, and provide for longer pump life. Additionally, one or more portions of the pump can be constructed with or coated with abrasive resistant material that extends the life of the external gear pump. Such material can also reduce the friction between surfaces and improve the life of the external gear pump under poor feeding conditions.

20230036027 · 2023-02-02 · ·

A compressor may include first and second scrolls, an axial biasing chamber, and a modulation control valve. The second scroll includes an outer port and an inner port. The outer and inner ports may be open to respective intermediate-pressure compression pockets. The modulation control valve may be in fluid communication with the inner port, the outer port, and the axial biasing chamber. Movement of the modulation control valve into a first position switches the compressor into a reduced-capacity mode and allows fluid communication between the inner port and the axial biasing chamber while preventing fluid communication between the outer port and the axial biasing chamber. Movement of the modulation control valve into a second position switches the compressor into a full-capacity mode and allows fluid communication between the outer port and the axial biasing chamber while preventing fluid communication between the inner port and the axial biasing chamber.
