A bead gasket for sealing off a gap between a first component and a second component, the bead gasket including: a first gasket layer including a holding element; a second gasket layer comprising a complementary holding element; and one or more folding portions which connect(s) the first gasket layer and the second gasket layer, wherein the first gasket layer, the second gasket layer and the respective folding portion are formed in one piece, and the gasket layers are or can be folded one onto the other by folding over the respective folding portion, such that they face each other in an axial direction, and wherein the holding element and the complementary holding element are in or can be moved into a holding engagement with each other based on a positive fit and/or frictional fit, in order to secure the gasket layers against diverging from each other.

An outlet gasket which has a gasket structure made of a gasket material, for sealing off a first pressure outlet and a second pressure outlet of a pump, the gasket structure including: a first sealing stay which circumferentially encloses a first fluid passage of the outlet gasket, provided for the first pressure outlet, in a seal in an axial plan view onto the outlet gasket; and a second sealing stay which circumferentially encloses a second fluid passage of the outlet gasket, provided for the second pressure outlet and located laterally next to the first fluid passage, in a seal in the plan view, wherein the gasket structure forms the sealing stays contiguously as a unit, and/or the outlet gasket includes a support structure on which the sealing stays are arranged.

A compressor structure includes a vane rotor and a cylinder eccentrically disposed around the vane rotor. The vane rotor has a vane impeller. The vane impeller is in tangential contact with the cylinder to define an eccentric crescent vane chamber. A vane is radially slidably received in the vane impeller. An outward extending top end of the vane tightly abuts against the inner circumferential wall of the vane chamber, whereby the vane chamber is partitioned into an intake section and a compression exhaustion section. When the vane rotor rotates, the vane is driven to drive the cylinder to complete gas compression ope rat ion. When rotating, the vane is simply swung at a fixed position of the cylinder, the friction of the compressor can be lowered. The communication of the gas outlet is regulated so that the compression ratio of the compressed gas exhausted from the compressor can be changed.

A cartridge vane pump includes a rotor, a plurality of vanes, a cam ring, a side member brought into contact with a first end surface of the cam ring, a cover member brought into contact with a second end surface of the cam ring, the cover member being attached to the body, and a linkage member provided to extend between the side member and the cover member over an outer circumferential surface of the cam ring, the linkage member being configured to link the side member and the cover member.

A rotary pump including: a pump housing including a circumferential wall, which surrounds a delivery chamber, a first end-face wall and a second end-face wall which delineate the delivery chamber at its end-face sides; a rotor, which can be rotated in the delivery chamber, for forming delivery cells; a pressure outlet which emerges on an outer end-face side of the first end-face wall facing away from the delivery chamber; an outlet gasket which is provided on the outer end-face side of the first end-face wall, for sealing off the pressure outlet; and a pressing device for charging the outlet gasket with an axial pressing force.

A compressor structure includes a vane rotor and a cylinder eccentrically disposed around the vane rotor. The vane rotor has a vane impeller. The vane impeller is in tangential contact with the cylinder to define an eccentric crescent vane chamber. A vane is radially slidably received in the vane impeller. An outward extending top end of the vane tightly abuts against the inner circumferential wall of the vane chamber, whereby the vane chamber is partitioned into an intake section and a compression exhaustion section. When the vane rotor rotates, the vane is driven to drive the cylinder to complete gas compression operation. When rotating, the vane is simply swung at a fixed position of the cylinder, the friction of the compressor can be lowered. The communication of the gas outlet is regulated so that the compression ratio of the compressed gas exhausted from the compressor can be changed.

A pump for applying fluid to an assembly, the pump including: a pump housing featuring a circumferential wall surrounding a delivery chamber of the pump, an end-facing housing wall including an outer end-facing surface of the housing which faces axially away from the delivery chamber, an inlet and an outlet for the fluid which emerges on the outer end-facing surface of the housing; a delivery member, moveable within the delivery chamber, for delivering the fluid from a low-pressure side of the pump which includes the inlet to a high-pressure side of the pump which includes the outlet; and an axial gasket which fully surrounds the outlet, in order to separate it from the low-pressure side, in an axial view onto the end-facing wall of the housing. The axial gasket is a spring gasket in the form of a disc spring or hollow-profile spring or V-profile spring or bellows spring.

A vane cell pump, including: a delivery chamber having an inlet and an outlet; a rotor which is arranged in the delivery chamber and has a rotor body and vanes which are accommodated by the rotor body such that they can be shifted radially; an end-facing wall which delineates the delivery chamber on an axial end-facing side; and a supporting element which is arranged axially between the end-facing wall and the rotor body and which supports the vanes at their radially inner vane ends, wherein the rotor body, the supporting element and each two vanes which are adjacent in the circumferential direction of the rotor form chambers, the volume of which varies when the rotor is rotating. A pressure equalization connection fluidically connects at least two of the chambers to each other.

The present invention aims to provide a long-life stator and a uniaxial eccentric screw pump provided with the stator, which enable a comparatively extended period of use by preventing damage of the stator due to repeating of attachment and removal to/from the uniaxial eccentric screw pump. A stator 20 includes an outer cylinder 30, and a stator main body 42 having flange-shaped gasket parts 46 and 47. The stator 20 includes fixing areas 24 and 25 to which the gasket parts 46 and 47 and the outer cylinder 30 are adhered. One or both of the outer cylinder 30 and the gasket parts 46 and 47 has a derricking part penetrating or being dented in axial directions X and made into such a shape where at least part of one of the outer cylinder and the gasket parts is fitted into the other.

A vane pump has a pump flange, a cam ring, a pressure plate and at least one pin extending axially through the pump flange, the cam ring and the pressure plate, the pin being preloaded in an axial direction thereof by means of at least one spring element.
