Devices to couple a drive hub to a driven hub. The devices may comprise a drive hub contoured end connected to a first end of a spacer column and to a spacer drive hub flange. A portion of the drive hub contoured end may project radially out from the spacer column with a first contoured side and a first flat side and may allow movement in an axial direction and transmit torque and an axial load. The devices may comprise a driven hub contoured end connected to a second end of the spacer column and to a spacer driven hub flange. A portion of the driven hub contoured end may project radially out from the spacer column with a second contoured side and a second flat side and may allow movement in an axial direction and transmit torque and an axial load.

A lubricant pump for conveying lubricant from a lubricant reservoir to a pump outlet includes a pump housing with a longitudinal axis. The pump housing has a receiving opening for a pump unit, a lubricant inlet opening and a lubricant outlet opening opening into the receiving opening, a pump drive, and a pump unit with a reciprocatingly movable delivery piston. The pump unit has a suction opening, which corresponds with the lubricant outlet opening when the pump unit is inserted into the receiving opening, and an outlet opening for lubricant. A coupling mechanism for driving the at least one pump unit includes an eccentric element which is rotatable about the longitudinal axis, a drive-side coupling section connected to the eccentric element, and a pump-side coupling section. The drive-side coupling section and the pump-side coupling section can be connected to one another automatically via a resilient latching connection.

The present invention provides a vertical, axial flow oil pump (10). The oil pump includes: a casing (11), the casing having a cylindrical shape as a whole and being able to rotate around its own central axis (O); a suction port (12), located at a lower end of the casing in an axial direction, and configured to suck oil into the oil pump; a discharge port (13), located at an upper end of the casing in the axial direction, and configured to discharge the oil from the oil pump to outside; and an impeller (14), provided in and formed integrally with the casing. The impeller rotates together with the casing when the casing rotates, so that the oil is flowed from the suction port to the discharge port. The present invention also provides a scroll compressor having the oil pump.

A fuel system is disclosed for a gas turbine engine, which includes an augmentor pump having an inlet communicating with a fuel supply source and a discharge communicating with an augmentation stage of the engine, wherein the augmentor pump is connected to an accessory drive gearbox mounted to the engine, and a high speed clutch for selectively engaging and disengaging the augmentor pump and the accessory drive gearbox.

A liquid transfer assembly includes a housing that has a supply port, a return port and a fill port each extending into an interior of the housing. A shut off valve is movably integrated into the housing and the shut off valve is movable between a first condition and a second condition. A trigger is movably integrated into the grip and the trigger is in communication with the shut off valve. The shut off valve is actuated into the second condition when the trigger is depressed. An inertial pump is movably disposed within the housing and the inertial pump is charged with a handle to pump a fluid in a first container into the second container when the trigger is depressed. A priming pump is integrated into the housing for priming the inertial pump when the priming pump is manipulated.

A motor for an electrical submersible pump includes a stator and rotor, where the rotor is made up of adjacent columns of magnets affixed onto an annular core. End rings on opposite ends of the core provide axial backstops for magnet columns. Thin coaxial sleeves are shrunk fit over the magnets and end rings and that radially compress the magnets. Apertures in a column are formed radially through the core and receive fasteners for securing a guide bar to the core. The guide bar simulates an installed column of magnets to guide placement of adjacent columns of magnets as the guide bar width is substantially the same as a column of magnets, and aperture locations are strategically positioned so that when the guide bar is secured onto the core. After the guide bar is removed the one of the columns of magnets is then adhered to the core.

A power generating unit including a hydraulic unit; an interface unit connected to the hydraulic unit, the interface unit being connectable to a stationary unit; a power flow shaft connected between the hydraulic unit and the interface unit for supply of a torque load therebetween; and at least one connecting element arranged between the hydraulic unit and the interface unit, the at least one connecting element being controllable between a first state in which a relative rotation between the hydraulic unit and the interface unit is allowed, and a second state in which a relative rotation between the hydraulic unit and the interface unit is prevented.

Systems and methods for preventing rotation of an ESP motor when the motor is not powered on, thereby preventing the motor from acting as a generator when fluid flowing through the pump section of the ESP applies a torque to the motor. In one embodiment, an ESP has a motor section, a pump section. The ESP may include a directional coupling that allows unidirectional rotation between the motor shaft and a pump shaft of the pump section, and a directional lock that allows unidirectional rotation between the motor shaft and a housing of the motor section. The directional coupling and directional lock allow the pump shaft to freewheel in the forward direction without causing the motor shaft to rotate, and prevent the pump shaft and motor from rotating in the reverse direction.

A coolant pump for an internal combustion engine (ICE) in a vehicle with a central engine control, having a pump shaft that drives an impeller for pumping a coolant. An axial piston pump operated via a wobble plate on a rear face of the impeller, conducts part of the pumped coolant away to a hydraulic circuit that extends from the axial piston pump via a proportional valve back to the pumped coolant and has a branch-off between the axial piston pump and the proportional valve as the hydraulic actuator. A regulating slide valve adjusts coolant volume flow of depending on pressure in the hydraulic circuit. A sensor detects a parameter characteristic of the coolant volume flow and outputs an actual value signal. A dedicated pump control controls the proportional valve based on the actual value signal of the sensor and a desired value signal of the central engine control.
