A plurality of sensors measure information related to at least one of the stator, the windings, the rotor, the pump element, the fluid and the hydraulic fluid path. A controller is in communication with the windings for delivering the electric current to the windings. The controller is also in communication with the plurality of sensors for measuring and recording the information and communicating this information to one of an external memory and an external controller.

A method of handling a gear pump, the gear pump including a driving gear wheel having a plurality of driving teeth and a driven gear wheel having a plurality of driven teeth meshing with the driving teeth, the method including controlling the gear pump in a testing mode including commanding driving of the gear pump to pump liquid towards a downstream device and commanding an increase of rotational speed of the gear pump; monitoring rotation values indicative of the rotational speeds during the testing mode; monitoring pressure values by means of at least a downstream pressure sensor during the testing mode, the downstream pressure sensor being arranged to measure a downstream pressure of the liquid between the gear pump and the downstream device; and determining at least one operational condition of the gear pump based on the pressure values and the rotation values.

A pump includes a front plate, a gear plate and a rear plate. A drive shaft has a drive gear, an arbor has a driven gear engaged with the drive gear, and first and second bearings are disposed in the gear plate. The first and second bearings receive the drive shaft and the arbor. The rear plate has drain ports adjacent ends of the drive shaft and the arbor. The arbor has an opening such that media that passes between the first bearing and an outer surface of the arbor is directed to the second drain port via the opening. A drain bushing is positioned against the front plate, and includes an opening for the drive shaft. The drain bushing has a chamber and a radial port. When pumped media passes between the first bearing and the drive shaft it is directed to the chamber and out the radial port.

A gerotor pump assembly, and a system and method for operating a gerotor pump assembly, result in a lubrication strategy for operating in a loss-of-prime mode. An inner drive gear may be rotated in a first direction and in a second opposite direction about an axis of rotation. The inner drive gear has a number of projections extending outwardly therefrom. An outer driven gear surrounds the inner drive gear and defines a number of recessions along an inner surface configured to engage with the projections of the inner drive gear. The outer driven gear and the inner drive gear further define at least one dynamically-changing fluid cavity therebetween. The inner drive gear and the outer driven gear define an oil transfer volume clearance between a projection and a recession in a fully engaged position. Oil is maintained within the oil transfer volume clearance as the inner drive gear is rotated.

In a drive apparatus, a pump includes an external gear fixed to an end portion of a motor shaft on a first axial side, an internal gear surrounding the external gear on a radially outer side thereof to mesh with the external gear, a pump chamber to house the internal gear and the external gear, a suction inlet to suck an oil into the pump chamber, and a discharge outlet to discharge the oil from inside the pump chamber. The housing includes an outer cover to cover the motor shaft on the first axial side and having the pump chamber defined therein, and a first oil passage defined in the outer cover and connected to the discharge outlet. The motor shaft includes a second oil passage in an interior of the motor shaft and connected to the first oil passage, and a first through hole to connect the second oil passage to an outer circumferential surface of the motor shaft. The first oil passage is located on the first axial side of the pump chamber. The second oil passage opens into the first oil passage at the end portion of the motor shaft on the first axial side.

A drive device includes a rotor, a stator, a housing including an accommodation portion to store oil and accommodate the rotor and the stator, a pump driven through a motor shaft, and a valve in the housing. The pump includes a pump room in the housing, a suction port through which the oil is to be sucked into the pump room, and a discharge port through which the oil is to be discharged from the pump room. The housing includes a first oil passage connected to the discharge port and a branch oil passage that is connected to the first oil passage and is open to an inside of the accommodation portion on an upper side in a vertical direction of the stator. The motor shaft includes a second oil passage located in the motor shaft and connected to the first oil passage and a first through-hole connecting the second oil passage and an outer circumferential surface of the motor shaft. The valve is provided in the branch oil passage, and switched between a closed state in which a flow of the oil in the branch oil passage is blocked and an open state in which the flow of the oil in the branch oil passage is permitted.

In a drive device, a pump includes a pump room in a housing, a suction port through which oil is to be sucked into the pump room, and a discharge port through which the oil is to be discharged from the pump room. The housing includes an inner lid that holds a bearing journaling a motor shaft and covers one side in an axial direction of a stator, an outer lid that is attached to one side in the axial direction of the inner lid and covers one side in the axial direction of the motor shaft, and a suction oil passage connecting a lower region in a vertical direction in an accommodation portion and the suction port.
