Methods and apparatus pertaining to positive displacement pumps, and further to hydraulic actuation systems. In some embodiments the pumps are gear pumps with bi-directional operation. In some embodiments the actuation system includes a motor-driven, reversible operation gear pump providing fluid under pressure to a rod and cylinder.

A vane cell machine includes a housing, rotor, curved ring, spring, and pressure piece. The rotor is configured to rotate about a rotation axis and includes a plurality of plate-like wings that are radially displaceable. The curved ring surrounds the rotor and delimits a movement path of the wings. Each pair of adjacent plate-like wings delimits a corresponding operating chamber. The housing surrounds and enables displacement of the curved ring. The spring is positioned between the curved ring and the housing, is pretensioned, and is configured to load the curved ring. The pressure piece is positioned between the spring and the curved ring, and sealingly abuts the housing and the curved ring so as to delimit a first and second pressure chamber from each other. The housing and the curved ring further delimit the first and second pressure chambers.

An electric oil pump apparatus includes an electric oil pump including a housing main body that accommodates a motor and a pump driven by the motor, a flange portion formed on the housing main body, and a control circuit case for accommodating a control circuit, and a base plate attached to the electric oil pump. The base plate includes an annular main body fixed to the housing main body, and a sealing member located between the annular main body and the housing main body. The annular main body includes a first surface located on one side, a second surface located on the other side, a first through hole for passing the housing main body therethrough, and an annular stepped portion configured to accommodate the sealing member, and formed along an inner edge of the first through hole. The first surface of the base plate is opposed to the flange portion.

A pump, comprising a pump insert which is arranged in an accommodating space of a cup-shaped pump housing. The pump insert comprises a first housing part and a second housing part between which a rotor is rotatably arranged, and a stroke ring which surrounds the rotor and is arranged between the first housing part and the second housing part. A spring flexing along the rotational axis is arranged between the accommodating housing and the second housing part. The spring comprises a spring structure which is made of metal and which imbues the spring with its essential spring characteristics along the rotational axis. The spring is supported towards the second housing part in a region which is arranged in axial alignment with the stroke ring in the direction of the rotational axis, and thus presses the second housing part against the stroke ring.

A rotor assembly for a rotary fluid device that includes a first body at least partially exposed to a process fluid, a second body at least partially exposed to the process fluid, a connecting apparatus that includes at least one connector and at least one seal that connects the first body to the second body and seals the at least one connector from exposure to the process fluid.

The invention relates to a sealing arrangement (1) for conveying devices, in particular for gear pumps, in which an inner space (5) can be sealed off from an outer space (6), wherein the sealing arrangement comprises at least two parts (2, 3) each having at least one sealing surface (20, 21), wherein the sealing surfaces (20, 21) comprise: a first seal (11) along a first, medial perimeter of the sealing surface (20, 21), a second seal (12) along a second, lateral perimeter of the sealing surface (20, 21), a recess (15) between the first seal (11) and the second seal (12), characterized in that the recess (15) can be connected to a source (30) of a flushing medium such that the recess (15) can be actively flushed with the flushing medium.

A seal tube assembly of a pump system is provided. The seal tube assembly includes a single seal tube having a first axial end sealably coupled to a first vane pump and a second axial end sealably coupled to a second vane pump. The single seal tube includes transverse contact surfaces at the first axial end and transverse contact surfaces at the second axial end. The single seal tube is formed to define a first seal tube cavity at the first axial end and a second seal tube cavity at the second axial end.

An electric pump includes a housing 2 configured of a housing body 3 and a cover 4, a stator 6 having a plurality of coils 15, a rotor 7 configured of an inner side outer rotor 16 and an outer side rotor body 17, a pump part 8 disposed on the inner circumferential side of the rotor 7 of an electric motor 5, side plates 11 and 12 disposed on both side surfaces of the rotor 7, an inner rotor 9, and a plurality of connecting plates 10 interposed between the outer rotor 16 and the inner rotor 9. The side plate 12 of the side plates 11 and 12 is pressed to the rotor 7 by a compression coil spring 28.

A rotary positive displacement pump comprises a housing rotationally supporting first and second parallel and axially extending drive shafts having constantly meshing gears such that the drive shafts rotate in opposite directions. A rotor casing is connected to a front side of the housing and has axial rear and front walls and a circumferential side wall jointly defining a pumping cavity. The casing houses first and second rotors drivingly connected to the first and second drive shafts respectively. The rotors rotate in opposite directions and mutually interact to provide a positive pumping effect on fluid product entering the cavity. First and second sealing arrangements prevent leakage of fluid product from the cavity towards the rear side of the casing along the first/second drive shafts. A heating device is detachably fastened to the rear casing wall to heat the casing, the first/second sealing arrangements and/or any fluid product within the casing.
