A progressive cavity pump includes a torque input disposed on a rotational axis, a resilient stator cylinder, a screw rotor situated within the resilient stator cylinder, and a universal joint. The universal joint rotationally couples the screw rotor to the torque input, and includes a swivel block, a linkage, a universal joint coupler, and a fastener. The swivel block has opposite laterally extending trunnions. The linkage extends parallel to the rotational axis, and laterally captures the laterally extending trunnions. The universal joint coupler is disposed around the swivel block and adjacent the linkage. The fastener connects the universal joint to the swivel block. The fastener and the laterally extending trunnions cooperate to transmit torque about the rotational axis through the linkage, while permitting lateral translation of the universal joint coupler in a plane orthogonal to the rotational axis.

A hydraulic machine (1) has a working section (6) and a fluid control section (28). The fluid control section includes a spool (3) that is rotatable in a cylindrical bore (30) about an axis (4). A distributor plate (18) extends intermediate of the control section and the working section. The spool includes an axial recess (10) which is axially bounded by a radially extending annular wall (44). A front face (48) of the annular wall rotates in abutting engagement with a plate face contact area (50) of the distributor plate. Hydraulic fluid flows through at least one groove (52) that extends radially and circumferentially across the abutting areas of the spool and the distributor plate to provide lubrication and heat absorption.

A helical gear pump includes a casing including a body (11), a front cover (12), and a rear cover (13), a pair of helical gears (23) and (24) that are housed in a hole portion formed on the body (11) and mesh with each other, and a pair of bearing cases (25) and (26) that sandwich the helical gears (23) and (24) in the hole portion. Of the helical gears (23) and (24), the number of teeth of the helical gear (23) on the driving side is larger than the number of teeth of the helical gear (24) on the driven side.

A serviceable pump includes a motor disposed at an end of the serviceable pump and connected to a gear portion with a pump shaft. The gear portion receives fluid from and outputs fluid to a system such as a deep fryer cooking system. The gear portion includes at least one channel for receiving fluid, such as oil, to lubricate the gears and a fluid discharge aperture to push fluid into a cooling loop at a first end of the cooling loop. The cooling loop cools the fluid passing through the serviceable pump and is disposed between the motor and the gear portion. The cooling loop is connected to a seal assembly that surrounds the pump input shaft at a second end of the loop. The seal assembly allows the cooled fluid to pass along the pump input shaft.

A rotary compressor is provided that may include a casing, a cylinder having an inner circumferential surface in an annular shape, a roller rotatably disposed in a compression space of the cylinder, a rotational shaft coupled to an inner circumference of the roller, main and sub bearings defining surfaces of the compression space, and a sub bearing cover coupled to the sub bearing to cover one end of the sub bearing and defining a discharge chamber with the sub bearing to communicate with the compression space so as to accommodate compressed refrigerant to be discharged. The sub bearing or the sub bearing cover may include a first barrier rib that protrudes from a surface thereof located inside of the discharge chamber. The first barrier rib may be spaced apart from a surface opposite to the surface within the discharge chamber by a predetermined distance.

A fuel pump assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a shaft for transmitting motion, a gear connected to and coaxial with the shaft with the gear having a first wear surface, a first bearing coaxial with the shaft with the first bearing being configured to support the gear and having a second wear surface positioned to interact with the first wear surface, and a plurality of indents. The indents are distributed in the first wear surface or the second wear surface and at least two of the plurality of indents are partially aligned in a radial direction.

A scroll compressor is disclosed. The scroll compressor may include an oil supply hole penetrating from an oil passage to an outer circumferential surface of a rotating shaft, and an oil supply groove communicating with the oil supply hole and formed along the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft. The oil supply groove may be provided in plurality axially spaced apart by a preset distance. This can prevent the oil supply groove from invading an oil film section and increase centrifugal force against oil in the oil supply groove, thereby suppressing friction loss and wear between a main frame and the rotating shaft.

The scroll compressor (1) includes a fixed scroll (7); an orbiting scroll (8); a support arrangement (5) including a thrust bearing surface (9) on which is slidably mounted the orbiting scroll (8); a rotation preventing device configured to prevent rotation of the orbiting scroll (8) with respect to the fixed scroll (7), the rotation preventing device including a plurality of orbital discs (28) respectively rotatably mounted in circular receiving cavities (29) provided on the support arrangement (5), each orbital disc (28) being provided with an outer circumferential bearing surface (31) configured to cooperate with an inner circumferential bearing surface (32) provided on the respective circular receiving cavity (29); and a lubrication system configured to lubricate the inner and outer circumferential bearing surfaces (32, 31) with oil supplied from an oil sump (36), the lubrication system including a plurality of oil reservoirs (43) each arranged in a bottom surface of a respective circular receiving cavity, and a plurality of oil stirring arrangements each configured to stir oil contained in a respective oil reservoir (43).

A transfer case pump includes an oil pump, a cover assembly, and a torque transfer mechanism. The oil pump has a pump shaft, and is configured to pressurize a lubricant in response to a rotation of the pump shaft. The pump shaft rotates around a pump axis. The pump axis is parallel to a rear axis of a rear shaft. The pump axis is offset from the rear axis. The cover assembly has a channel configured to transfer the lubricant from the oil pump to the rear shaft. The cover assembly extends around the rear shaft and around the pump shaft. The torque transfer mechanism is configured to transfer a torque from the rear shaft to the pump shaft.

A pump body assembly, a compressor and an air conditioner are provided. The pump body assembly has a crankshaft, a main bearing, and a cylinder body. The crankshaft has a main shaft part and an eccentric part connected with the main shaft part. The main bearing has a hub part. The main shaft part extends through a through hole in the hub part. A first oil guide groove is formed in the hole wall of the through hole. A sliding vane slot and a center hole are formed in the cylinder body. The crankshaft extends through the center hole. The main bearing is located at the one side of the cylinder body. The crankshaft and the main bearing are in uniform contact with oil films at all positions. The abnormal wear of the main shaft part of the crankshaft can be reduced, and the service life of the compressor can be prolonged.
