A fluid pumping system for a vehicle having an internal combustion engine comprises a housing, an electric motor, a rotatable first input adapted to be driven by the internal combustion engine, a rotatable second input driven by the electric motor, and a pump. The pump includes a drum selectively rotated about a drum axis of rotation by one of the first input and the second input, and a pump rotor selectively rotated by the other of the first input and the second input. The drum includes a cam ring having a cavity in receipt of the pump rotor. The drum includes a first fluid inlet port and a second fluid inlet port on opposite sides of the drum such that fluid entering the cavity through the first and second fluid ports flows axially in a direction parallel to the drum axis of rotation. The drum includes a radially extending outlet port such that pumped fluid flows radially out of the cavity. The housing contains the electric motor and the pump.

A vane pump includes: a suction port configured to guide working oil to a pump chambers; a discharge port configured to guide the working oil discharged from the pump chambers; and a notch formed from an opening edge portion of the suction port towards a reversing direction of a rotation direction of a rotor, wherein the pump chambers each communicates with the suction port through the notch during a course of the transition from the state, in which the pump chamber is in communication with the discharge port, to the state, in which the communication with the discharge port is shut off, as the rotor is rotated.

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for mitigating fluid loss or leakage from a fluid pump with a rotating shaft driving a pumping mechanism. A packing gland component can have an internal seal formed by two dynamic O-rings that allows for use of lubricants at high pressures, as well as an outer seal for greater prevention of fluid loss. Further, the packing gland component can be a retrofit for existing packing gland components to provide for greater life and efficiency as compared to the existing packing gland components. Additionally, in some implementations, a sleeve may be fixedly attached to the rotating shaft between the packing gland and the shaft to provide a wear point for the packing gland.

A fluid working system such as a pump for displacing a working fluid such as hydraulic fluid or a motor using a working fluid is provided. The system may have a positive displacement machine which includes one or more working chamber with displacement means such as a cylinder with a reciprocating piston. There are also two or more fluid ports to allow the working fluid to flow into and out of the working chamber. The working fluid flows from one fluid port means to another either being forced to do so when pumped or moving the piston when functioning as an engine. The fluid working system has associated therewith a non-dead compliance volume of a material such as syntactic foam. This compliance volume acts to smooth any pressure fluctuations within the working fluid system.

A pump includes a pump housing including an inlet for the fluid on a low-pressure side, an outlet for the fluid on a high-pressure side, a circumferential wall facing faces axially away from the delivery chamber and on which the outlet emerges; a spring structure arranged on the outer end face of the end wall; a delivery member movable within the delivery chamber for delivering the fluid from the low-pressure side to the high-pressure side; and a securing device for axial securing the pump housing. The securing device includes a female holding element having an axially extending cavity and a male holding element in a joining engagement, exposable to an axial tensile load, with the female holding element in the cavity. The spring structure and/or the end wall is/are held on the pump housing by one of the holding elements by the joining engagement.

A vane cell pump, including: a rotor and a plurality of vanes rotatable with the rotor, wherein the rotor includes a sub-vane chamber for each vane, and each vane forms a shifting wall of the sub-vane chamber assigned to it; first and second end-facing walls adjoining the rotor on end-facing sides and which, in order to control pressure to the sub-vane chamber, include sub-vane cavities which extend in the circumferential direction of the rotor and include control edges as viewed in the circumferential direction; wherein the control edge of the sub-vane cavity of the first end-facing wall, and the control edge of the sub-vane cavity of the second end-facing wall which is similar to it, are arranged angularly offset about the rotational axis as the apex with respect to each other.

A rotary compressor (1) includes a hermetically sealed compressor housing (10) that is provided with a refrigerant discharge portion (107) and refrigerant suction portions (104, 105), a compression unit (12) that is arranged in the compressor housing (10) and compresses a refrigerant, sucked from the suction portions (104, 105), and discharges it from the discharge portion (107), a motor (11) that is arranged in the compressor housing (10) and drives the compression unit (12), an accumulator that is connected to the suction portions (104, 105), and a mounting member (50) that secures the accumulator to the compressor housing (10). The compressor housing (10) and an accumulator container (26) of the accumulator are made of a metal material. The mounting member (50) is at least partially made of a resin material and has a first joint portion (J1), which is joined to an outer peripheral surface (10a) of the compressor housing (10).

A rotary pump includes: a pump housing having a low-pressure inlet and a high-pressure outlet; a delivery rotor rotatable about a rotational axis and including multiple deliverers distributed over the circumference of the rotor for delivering a fluid from the low-pressure inlet to the high-pressure outlet; and a setting element for adjusting the delivery volume of the pump. The inlet end of the setting element includes a first circumferential portion which extends circumferentially in the rotational direction of the rotor and the axial width of which is smaller than the axial width of the deliverers and a second circumferential portion which adjoins the first circumferential portion in the rotational direction and the axial width of which is greater than the axial width of the first circumferential portion.
