Methods for manufacturing an impeller wheel assembly (e.g., an impeller wheel attached to one or more additional components) are provided. In one example, a method includes casting an impeller wheel without a hub feature in a mold and holding the cast impeller wheel in a fixed position using a holding plate during subsequent stages of fabrication (e.g., the addition of a shaft via friction welding).

The invention relates to the field of pump design. A multistage centrifugal pump with two parallel flows of pumped medium comprises a housing consisting of two separate parts, each of which contains impellers and guide apparatus, and a central pressure cover mounted between said parts of the housing. A delivery pipe is vertical and centrally oriented. The pump additionally includes an end transfer cover for transferring fluid from the first part of the housing to the second part via transfer channels provided integrally with the pressure cover and the transfer cover. The impellers are arranged in the first and second parts of the housing such as to be opposed to one another in relation to the central pressure cover. The first part of the housing comprises a horizontal suction pipe and a vertical discharge pipe, which are disposed on the drive side of the pump and are configured in the form of a single cast part. The discharge pipe is connected by a transfer pipe to an annular chamber in the central pressure cover. The invention is directed toward simplifying the installation, assembly and repair of the pump in an operating environment, reducing the length of the pump piping, and allowing for disassembly and repair of the wet end of the pump without disconnecting the suction and discharge pipes.

A diffuser and deswirl system associated with an engine includes a throat ring defining a plurality of passages spaced apart about a perimeter of the throat ring, a plurality of pockets and a support flange. Each passage of the plurality of passages is to receive a working fluid and each pocket of the plurality of pockets is defined about a portion of a respective passage of the plurality of passages. The diffuser and deswirl system includes a plurality of conduits, with each conduit including a first conduit end and a second conduit end opposite the first conduit end. The first conduit end of each conduit is received within and coupled to the pocket of a respective one of the plurality of passages to receive the working fluid, and each conduit includes a mating feature defined between the first conduit end and the second conduit end coupled to the support flange.

A centrifugal pump for lifting clean water or water with suspended solids includes a hollow body having a front opening, a volute with a delivery port, and an impeller accommodated in the body and designed to be coupled to a motor, with blades tips substantially coplanar at an annular peripheral area. A cover of the front opening includes a flange, an annular wear plate, rigidly joined to the flange and located at a predetermined axial distance from an annular peripheral area of the impeller, and an adjustment system, mounted onto the flange and accessible from the outside, to controllably adjust the axial distance of the wear plate, and to both calibrate the axial position of the wear plate and lock the wear plate in the calibrated position. A method of adjusting the axial distance of the wear plate from an impeller in a centrifugal pump.

A method for manufacturing a compressor includes a step of installing a bundle having an O-ring on an outer peripheral surface inside a lower half casing so that a position of the O-ring in an axial direction coincides with a position of a lower half relief groove, a step of installing an upper half casing having an upper half relief groove on the lower half casing so that a position of the upper half relief groove in the axial direction coincides with the position of the O-ring, and a step of pressing the bundle in the axial direction to move the O-ring to a position away from the lower half relief groove and the upper half relief groove, and bringing the O-ring into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the lower half casing and the inner peripheral surface of the upper half casing.
