Provided is a variable displacement vane pump with a control slide and a first and second control chambers. Also, the pump has a control system for controlling delivery of pressurized lubricant to the chambers. The control system includes a control device configured for movement between at least a first control position and a second control position. The control device may include its own housing and/or include discs configured for relative movement. The pivot pin may include grooves for delivering a flow from the outlet to the control system. In the first control position, pressurized lubricant is delivered to the first control chamber and the second control chamber is vented, which increases the output flow of the pump. In the second control position, pressurized lubricant is delivered to the second control chamber and the first control chamber is vented, which decreases the output flow of the pump.

Variable capacity vane pump 1 supplying working fluid to power steering device of vehicle has pump housing 2 formed from bottomed cylindrical-shaped front housing 5 and rear housing 6 closing the front housing, pump element 3 accommodated in pump housing, communicating with inlet passage 23 and with outlet passage 30 and sucking and discharging working fluid, and flow amount control valve 33 controlling an amount of working fluid discharged by pump element. Pressure-sensitive valve 50, which changes a flow passage cross-sectional area of the outlet passage so that the discharge amount of the pump element is increased with increase in load pressure of power steering device, is set at some midpoint of the outlet passage and at bottom wall portion 5b of front housing. It is therefore possible to suppress increase in size of device while reducing energy loss when variable capacity vane pump is mounted in power steering device.

The present disclosure relates to a control circuit for a variable displacement pump in a vehicle transmission, including: a regulator valve configured to regulate displacement control fluid to the variable displacement pump; and a response limiter in communication with the regulator valve, configured to mitigate pressure oscillations in the control circuit.

A variable displacement vane pump that includes a biasing assembly that applies a first biasing force to a pump control ring when the pump control ring is located a first position and a second position and applies a second biasing force when the pump control ring is located between the second position and a third position. The first position of the pump control ring corresponds to a maximum volumetric capacity of the pump, the second position corresponds to an intermediary volumetric capacity of the pump, and the third position corresponds to a minimum volumetric capacity of the pump. Fluid pressure within a control chamber urges the pump control ring toward the third position.

Disclosed is a compressor having a torque load reducing unit for moving a center of weight to which a gas force is applied. As the torque load reducing unit is formed at an oval-shaped roller, a distance between a rotation center of the roller and an operation point to which a gas force is applied becomes short. This can reduce a torque load to the roller, and can enhance compression efficiency.

A pumping device for pumping oil from a reservoir to a transmission of a motor vehicle includes: an oil pump, selectively drivable either by a mechanical direct drive or an activatable electric drive. The oil pump has: first and second components, the first and second components being movable relative to one another and being configured to deliver the oil, the mechanical direct drive being connected to one of the first and second components, and the activatable electric drive being connected to the other of the first and second components; a pump stage housing, in which the first and second components are arranged, the pump stage housing having two control disks and an interposed ring; and a pot-shaped component in which the pump stage housing is arranged.
