A scroll compressor for a motor vehicle air-conditioning system includes a compressor housing, two interleaving spirals within the compressor housing, of which one spiral is stationary and the other spiral is movable eccentrically on a circular orbit, whereby the volume of compression chambers formed between the spirals changes cyclically and refrigerant is suctioned in and compressed; at least one refrigerant outlet port for ejecting the compressed refrigerant in a wall, frontal to the spirals, of the compressor housing in the center of the stationary spiral, wherein in the spiral end region on the inner end of at least one of the two spirals the concave side of the spiral wall is provided with a cut that has the form of a cone segment with concave curvature, decreasing from the upper end in the direction toward the lower end of the spiral wall.

A compressor design includes a male rotor (10) having one or more helical lobes (12) and a female rotor (14) having one or more helical grooves (16). The male rotor is mounted on a first shaft and the female rotor is mounted on a second shaft. The male rotor is positioned in a first section of a chamber and the female rotor is positioned in a second section of the chamber. Fluid enters the chamber at an inlet, and when the rotors are driven, the lobes of the male rotor fit into the grooves of the female rotor, causing compression and movement of the fluid towards an outlet or discharge end where the compressed fluid is discharged. The configuration of the lobe and groove helix, the lobe and groove profile, and the outer diameter of the rotors can be varied in different combinations to form different rotors.

A liquid ring pump includes a stationary housing that defines an inner space, and a drive shaft rotatably mounted within the stationary housing. The drive shaft defines a rotational axis. An impeller includes a plurality of blades extending radially outward with respect to the rotational axis, and each blade includes a root and a tip, wherein a continuous curve extends from the tip of each blade through the root of the blade and intersects with the rotational axis.

An eccentric screw pump for delivering solid-laden liquids includes a rotor and a stator within which the rotor is rotatably arranged. The rotor and stator are arranged and designed with respect to one another in such a way that at least one chamber is formed, which serves to transport the liquid. The eccentric screw pump has a drive motor for rotating the rotor, a control device for controlling the drive motor at least in a working state, in which the rotor is rotated, and an idle state, in which the rotor does not rotate, and an engagement unit, which is designed to set an engagement between the rotor and stator to an idle engagement in the idle state and to a working engagement in the working state. The idle engagement is less than the working engagement. A method for operating the eccentric screw pump is also disclosed.

A screw spindle pump for the delivery of fluid media with a pump housing having an inlet channel with a first longitudinal axis, an outlet channel with a second longitudinal axis, a first drive spindle with a third longitudinal axis, and a second driven spindle. The spindles each include a profiled section between the inlet channel and the outlet channel, wherein the profiled sections of the spindles are engaged at least partially with one another and form, with the pump housing between the inlet channel and the outlet channel, a delivery section parallel to the longitudinal axis of the drive spindle with delivery chambers for the fluid medium. The second longitudinal axis of the outlet channel is disposed at an obtuse angle to the delivery section in the pump housing. The invention also relates to a method for operating a screw spindle pump.
