A pump and motor assembly (20) includes a centrifugal pump (30), a bent axis hydraulic pump 58, and a wet-type drive motor (228). The motor has a rotor and a stator that are submerged in hydraulic fluid for full lubrication and cooling. A drive shaft 66 is driven by the motor. The centrifugal pump has a rotatable impeller (50) for pumping hydraulic fluid from an inlet (48) to the bent axis hydraulic pump. The centrifugal pump also pumps fluid to the motor for lubrication and cooling. The bent axis hydraulic pump pumps the fluid and discharges the fluid from the system. The centrifugal pump and the bent axis hydraulic pump are rotatable along a common rotational axis R1 that is angled relative to the rotational axis R2 of the drive shaft.

A submersible pumping system has an electric motor, a rotary hydraulic pump driven by the electric motor, and a linear hydraulic pump that is configured to move a production fluid. The rotary hydraulic pump produces a pressurized working fluid that drives the linear hydraulic pump. In another aspect, a method is disclosed for controlling the temperature of an electric motor within a submersible pumping system disposed in a wellbore. The method includes the steps of circulating motor lubricant through a hydraulically driven production pump to reduce the temperature of the motor lubricant.

High-pressure homogeniser (100) comprising:

a volumetric piston pump (1) comprising a plurality of pumping pistons (10);
a homogenising valve (20) arranged downstream of the volumetric piston pump (1); linear motion transmission means (5) of the electro-hydrostatic type, comprising an electric motor (6) and a pump (7) directly driven by the electric motor (6), the pump (7) being operatively active on the pistons (10);
a control unit (40) configured to control the linear motion transmission means (5) such that a reciprocating motion is imposed to each piston (10) according to a law of motion which is pre-established and independent from the laws of motion of the other pistons (10).

A compressor assembly having a high velocity muffler system which produces a particle-free compressor pump feed while reducing noise output from the compressor assembly during compressing operations. The high velocity muffler system is maintenance-free and comprises an inertia filter. The compressor assembly uses a method for producing a compressor pump feed and reducing noise during compressing operations by processing a gas through the high velocity muffler system which has an inertia filter and a muffler chamber to produce a compressor pump feed which can be compressed by a pump assembly.

A liquid foam delivery device includes a pump proper, a linear transmission mechanism, a unidirectional input/output gas mechanism and a unidirectional input/output liquid mechanism. The pump proper has a rotating shaft. The linear transmission mechanism converts rotational motion output by the rotating shaft into linear reciprocating motion perpendicular to the rotating shaft. The unidirectional input/output gas mechanism admits gas into a gas inlet and discharge gas from a gas outlet in a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft through the linear reciprocating motion of the linear transmission mechanism. The unidirectional input/output liquid mechanism delivers liquid admitted through a liquid inlet to a liquid outlet through the rotational motion output by the rotating shaft. The liquid foam delivery device delivers gas and liquid with only one pump proper and one rotating shaft to therefore minimize the required number of constituent components, achieve miniaturization, render assembly easy and cut cost.
