An oscillating piston pump including: a first hollow tubular body in which a piston moves; a second hollow tubular body extending around the first hollow tubular body, carrying a solenoid that controls the movement of the piston, the first tubular body and the second tubular body forming a one-piece structural element.
VALVE SPRING SEAT SLEEVE, VALVE ASSEMBLY AND PLUNGER PUMP
A valve spring seat sleeve, a valve assembly, and a plunger pump are disclosed. The valve spring seat sleeve includes a cylindrical hollow structure, a first fluid hole, a first notch and a second notch; the cylindrical hollow structure includes a plunger passage; the first fluid hole passes through a sidewall of the cylindrical hollow structure and communicated with the plunger passage; the first notch and the second notch are located on a side of the cylindrical hollow structure opposite to the first fluid hole; the cylindrical hollow structure includes a first end portion, a second end portion and an intermediate portion, a center of the first fluid hole is located at the intermediate portion, the cylindrical hollow structure further includes a spring mounting portion located between the first notch and the second notch.
Cladded valve seat, assembly, and methods for cladding such seat
This disclosure provides a valve seat having cladded surfaces of high hardness in order to improve the service life of valve seats. The cladded surfaces may include various materials of favorable mechanical properties for mitigating failure mechanisms known for common valve seats (e.g., having a common base metal throughout). In one example, the cladded surfaces are created using an additive manufacturing process, such as laser metal deposition. The cladded surfaces offer advantages including metallurgical bonding, localized low heat input at the laser focus (thus enabling accurate control of temperature and mitigating undesirable heat treatment effects), ductility in middle layers for increasing impact resistance, variable cladding thickness (optionally exceeding 1 mm), increased hardness by material and fusing temperature selections, corrosion resistance, modification of mechanical properties of the same selected material, and allowing for sensor embedment.
Pump Assembly with Self-Retained Valve Spring and Methods
A fluid end includes a fluid end block defining a chamber. A plunger is disposed in the chamber. An outlet fluid passage is formed in the fluid end block in communication with the fluid chamber. An inlet fluid passage formed in the fluid end block communicates with the fluid chamber. The inlet fluid passage includes a seat, an enlarged diameter downstream from the seat, and a neck downstream of the enlarged diameter. The neck has a lesser diameter than the enlarged diameter. An inlet valve is movably disposed in the inlet fluid passage and is sized and shaped to seal against the seat. A biasing member has a first and second end with respective first diameter and a second diameter disposed within the enlarged diameter. The second end is positioned against the neck. The second end diameter is greater than the neck.
VALVE SEAT WITH CERAMIC INSERT
A valve seat for a valve assembly for a high-pressure fluid pump is disclosed. The valve assembly includes a valve body, and a valve seat fabricated of a first material. The valve seat has a generally a tubular body having an annular collar having an outer diameter surface extending beyond the outer diameter surface of the tubular body, and an annular insert fabricated of a second material more durable than the first material and affixed to form an inner diameter surface of the collar, the insert forming an annular sealing surface against which the valve body abuts when in a closed position. The insert forms an annular ledge edge at its inner diameter surface that is offset from the inner diameter surface of the tubular body to form an annular chamfered edge.
PUMP UNIT FOR MINIATURE CLEANING MACHINE
The invention provides a pump unit for a miniature cleaning machine, and belongs to the technical field of cleaning machines. The problem that an existing pump unit is frequently maintained is solved. The pump unit for the miniature cleaning machine comprises a motor, a pump shell, a plunger and a transmission assembly, the plunger and the transmission assembly are arranged in the pump shell, a reset spring enabling the plunger to always have the upward moving trend is arranged in the pump shell, the transmission assembly comprises a pump main shaft, an eccentric shaft and a ball bearing, one end of the pump main shaft is in transmission connection with the motor, and the other end of the pump main shaft is in transmission connection with the eccentric shaft. The other end of the pump main shaft is in transmission connection with one end of the eccentric shaft, the other end of the eccentric shaft is connected to the pump shell, the eccentric shaft is sleeved with the ball bearing, and a peripheral face of the ball bearing is attached to an upper end face of the plunger. The structure solves the problem of frequent maintenance of the pump unit.
VALVE SEATS FOR USE IN FRACTURING PUMPS
A valve assembly for use in a fracturing pump including a valve member movable into and out of engagement with a valve seat body. The valve seat body includes an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface forming a fluid bore extending between a first end and a second end of the valve seat body. The body further includes a seating surface extending radially from the inner surface and facing the valve member, the seating surface having a recessed area. An insert is disposed in the recessed area forming at least a portion of the inner surface and at least portion of the seating surface. The valve seat body first end has a diameter different from a diameter valve seat body second. The difference between diameters allows the valve seat body outer surface to be supported by the fluid passageway.
PNEUMATIC RECIPROCATING FLUID PUMP WITH IMPROVED CHECK VALVE ASSEMBLY, AND RELATED METHODS
A pneumatic reciprocating fluid pump for pumping a fluid at least one check valve assembly that includes a check valve body insert, a ball within the valve body insert, and an annular sealing ring member disposed within a seat ring receptacle. The sealing ring member has dimensions smaller than corresponding dimensions of the seat ring receptacle, such that the sealing ring member is capable of moving within the seat ring receptacle. The ball is configured to slide back and forth between a first position and a second position within the check valve body insert responsive to forward and reverse flow of fluid therethrough. In one position, the ball is seated against the sealing ring member and prevents reverse flow of the fluid through the check valve assembly, and forward flow of the fluid through the check valve assembly is enabled when the ball is in another position.
POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMP VALVE SEAL
A valve and seal arrangement for extended life in a positive displacement pump. The arrangement may take on different configurations. The seal may be secured within a shielding sidewall of a valve head for isolation from differential pressure during striking of the valve head at a valve seat. Additionally, the seal itself may include an axial tail for sealing off the fluid chamber below and defined by the seat prior to the striking of the valve head at the seat. Further, a horizontal flange defining a clearance of no more than about a layer of an abrasive constituent of a slurry being pumped may be utilized. That is, as opposed to, or in addition to, sealing in advance of striking, flow may be reduced to no more than a constituent layer thickness in advance of the striking. Other similarly advantageous architectural valve features may also be employed.
