A screw compressor includes a screw rotor, a gate rotor, and a speed adjuster. The screw rotor has an outer peripheral surface with a plurality of screw grooves. The screw rotor is configured to be rotated. The gate rotor has a plurality of teeth. A ratio T/S of a number T of the teeth to a total number S of the screw grooves is greater than or equal to 2.5. The gate rotor meshes with the screw rotor. The speed adjuster is configured to adjust a rotational speed of the screw rotor. Rotation of the screw rotor at an angle greater than 180° allows the screw compressor to perform a stroke from start of compression to completion of discharge.

A pair of co-operating screw rotors including a male rotor and a female rotor. The male rotor and the female rotor have helically extending lobes and intermediate grooves configured to intermesh with one another. Each groove of the female rotor has a first flank including at least three concave sections. A first section includes or is disposed immediately adjacent the radially innermost point of the groove. A second section is shaped as a circular arc with a radius having its center located outside the pitch circle. A third section is shaped as a circular arc with a radius having its center located outside the pitch circle. The radius of the third section is greater than the radius of the second section, which is greater than the radial distance between a pitch circle of the female rotor and the radially innermost point of the groove.

A method of machining, with a formed tool, a first rotor and a second rotor with mutually complementary meshing threads involves rotating a first workpiece about a longitudinal axis of the workpiece. The tool makes one or more passes along the longitudinal axis of the workpiece as the workpiece rotates so as to remove material, thereby forming the flanks of each helix of the first rotor's thread. The value of at least one of the parameters that collectively define the relative position and relative movement of the workpiece and formed tool is varied during each pass so as to vary the lead of the thread. The above steps are repeated for a second workpiece, thereby forming the second rotor. Adjustments are made to at least one of said parameters during one or more of the passes in order to maintain mutually complementary shapes of the threads of the rotors.

A rotor pair for a compressor block of a screw machine includes a secondary rotor that rotates about a first axis and a main rotor that rotates about a second axis. The number of teeth of the main rotor is 3 and the number of teeth of the secondary rotor is 4. The relative profile depth of the secondary rotor is at least 0.5 rk1 is an addendum circle radius drawn around the outer circumference of the secondary rotor and rf1 is a dedendum circle radius starting at the profile base of the secondary rotor. The ratio of the axis distance of the first axis from the second axis and the addendum circle radius rk1 is at least 1.636.

Formula (1): r=ro−dr.Math.cos θ, Formula (2): Px=(ro−dr)+1/4 dr{1−cos (2θ)}, Formula (3): Py=1/4 dr{−2θ+sin (2θ)}, Formula (4): Qx=Px−r.Math.cos θ, Formula (5): Qy=Py+r.Math.sin θ.

A segmented rotor assembly built from individual rotor segments is presented. In one aspect, the segmented rotor assembly is defined by a plurality of lobes extending between a first lobe end and a second lobe end. Each lobe is constructed from a pair of identically shaped lobe segments mated to each other. Each lobe segment is provided with a helical twist extending between a first segment end and a second segment end. The constructed lobes can then be mated to each other to create a wholly formed rotor.

The present application provides a screw compressor that comprises a first male rotor and a second male rotor, each of the first male rotor and the second male rotor having convex-helical teeth, the first male rotor and the second male rotor being rigidly connected together; a first female rotor and a second female rotor, each of the first female rotor and the second female rotor having concave-helical teeth, the first female rotor being arranged separately from and opposite to each other; wherein the convex-helical teeth of the first male rotor are engaged with the concave-helical teeth of the first female rotor, and the convex-helical teeth of the second male rotor are engaged with the concave-helical teeth of the second female rotor. The male rotors in the screw compressor are symmetrically so that the axial force exerted on the first male rotor counteract with the axial force exerted on the second male rotor.

The present invention relates to highly efficient suction and compression rotating mechanisms, particularly the compression mechanism with piston blocks mounted on two axes and driven by a pair of matching gears in the field of compressors and vacuums or hydraulic system such as oil pump, hydraulic motor, hydraulic gearbox, specifically there is application that uses this mechanism to create one rotary motor with multi compression stages, force-generating stages and continuous fuel burning regime. The new rotary lobe structure in this invention provides a close contact between curved surfaces with the same radius, which is a “Surface -to-surface” contact, whith much better tightness than “line” contact.

An electric pump includes a housing that includes a gear chamber, a rotor chamber, and a motor chamber. The electric pump includes a first seal member, a second seal member, and a third seal member. The first seal member seals a space between the gear chamber and the rotor chamber. The second seal member seals the space between the gear chamber and the rotor chamber. The third seal member seals a space between the gear chamber and the motor chamber. The third seal member seals the space between the gear chamber and the motor chamber to a lesser extent than the first seal member and the second seal member seal the space between the gear chamber and the rotor chamber.
