A power end assembly includes a crankshaft section, a crosshead section, and a connector section coupled together by one, two, or more sets of stay rods. The power end may include one or more support plates that are coupled to the crankshaft section and/or crosshead section. The crosshead section includes a plurality of individual crosshead frames. The connector section may include a plurality of individual connector plates or may be a unitary connector plate. The power end is configured to be coupled to a fluid end assembly by coupling the fluid end assembly to the connector plates.

A suction valve of a high-pressure fuel pump for a vehicle includes a housing having an inlet through which a fuel is introduced and a pump chamber configured to press the fuel, a valve installation space arranged between the inlet and the pump chamber, and a solenoid part provided with a rod for performing a linear reciprocal motion, and further includes a valve sleeve inserted into the valve installation space and formed with a flow hole, a valve spring seated on the valve sleeve, a valve plate elastically supported by the valve spring, and moving in conjunction with the rod, and a valve sheet formed with an introduction hole opened and closed by the valve plate, in which the valve sleeve is slid and inserted into the valve installation space, and the valve sheet is fitted into and fastened to the valve installation space to support the valve sleeve.

A fluid pump is shown, comprising: a chamber comprising an inlet and an outlet, the outlet comprising a non-return valve, the chamber having a cavity comprising a cylinder; a piston slidably disposed within the cylinder; and a Tesla valve in fluid communication with the inlet, wherein the fluid pump is configured to pump fluid from the inlet to the outlet by reciprocation of the piston within the cylinder.

A manually operated, high pressure pump featuring all plastic construction, is presented. The high pressure is suitable for dispensing liquids in the form of mists. Used pumps do not require disassembly to be recycled.

A valve spring seat sleeve, a valve assembly, and a plunger pump are disclosed. The valve spring seat sleeve includes a cylindrical hollow structure, a first fluid hole, a first notch and a second notch; the cylindrical hollow structure includes a plunger passage; the first fluid hole passes through a sidewall of the cylindrical hollow structure and communicated with the plunger passage; the first notch and the second notch are located on a side of the cylindrical hollow structure opposite to the first fluid hole; the cylindrical hollow structure includes a first end portion, a second end portion and an intermediate portion, a center of the first fluid hole is located at the intermediate portion, the cylindrical hollow structure further includes a spring mounting portion located between the first notch and the second notch.

A power end assembly includes a crankshaft section, a crosshead section, and a connector section coupled together by one, two, or more sets of stay rods. The power end may include one or more support plates that are coupled to the crankshaft section and/or crosshead section. The crosshead section includes a plurality of individual crosshead frames. The connector section may include a plurality of individual connector plates or may be a unitary connector plate. The power end is configured to be coupled to a fluid end assembly by coupling the fluid end assembly to the connector plates.

A fluid end comprising a plurality of fluid end sections positioned in a side-by-side relationship. Each fluid end section is releasably attached to a connect plate. Each connect plate is attached to a power source using a plurality of stay rods. Each fluid end section comprises a housing in fluid communication with a pair of intake manifolds and a discharge conduit. A fluid routing plug is installed within each housing and is configured to route fluid throughout the housing. A plunger is installed within stuffing box attached to each housing. A number of features, including the location of seals within bore walls and carbide inserts within valve guides, aid in reducing or transferring wear.

A plunger, a hydraulic end and a plunger pump are disclosed. The plunger includes a plunger body, the plunger body includes a flow channel; a first liquid inlet hole is located in the plunger body and passes through the sidewall of the plunger body; the plunger body includes a first end portion and a second end portion, a flow channel extends from the first end portion to the second end portion, a part of the flow channel close to the first end portion is closed, the flow channel extends to the second end portion and forms a first opening, the first liquid inlet hole is communicated with the flow channel, the first valve assembly is located at the first opening, and is configured to allow fluid to flow out from the flow channel at the first opening and prevent fluid from flowing back to the flow channel from outside.

Valves used for reciprocating gas compression and expansion and methods for operating them are provided. In some embodiments, these systems and methods can be used to recover energy in heat pumps, compressed gas systems, and pumped heat energy storage systems. In other embodiments, they may be used for gas compression or both gas compression and expansion.
