The present disclosure provides a micro water pump, including: a pump body having a cavity, an inlet communicating with the cavity, and an outlet communicating with the cavity; a drive mechanism installed on the pump body for driving liquid from the inlet into the cavity and discharging from the outlet. The pump body includes a base, an upper cover engaging with the base for forming the cavity, and a barrier member. The upper cover includes a fixed wall located in the cavity. The barrier member protrudes from the fixed wall for preventing the drive mechanism from colliding and rubbing with the fixed wall during rotation. By virtue of the configuration, improved heat-dissipation performance is performed.

A vertical rotating system that includes a first vertical shaft that rotates. The first vertical shaft is oriented such that the gravitational force is substantially parallel to the first vertical shaft. A radial bearing extends about a first portion of the first vertical shaft. A first impeller sectioned couples to the first vertical shaft and rotates in a first direction to pump a first fluid. A first stator surrounds the first vertical shaft. The first stator defines a first groove that extends about a second portion of the first vertical shaft. The first groove receives a second fluid. A pressure of the second fluid drives the first vertical shaft away from the first groove.

A submersible well pump assembly having a motor with a shaft, a stator, a rotor coupled to the shaft, and bearing sleeves between the shaft and a bearing assembly. The rotor includes a number of rotor sections located along an axis of the shaft, where each rotor section includes a stack of rotor disks and end rings on each end of the stack. Each bearing sleeve attaches to an end ring and extends axially away from the end ring into abutment with an end of another bearing sleeve attached to an adjacent end ring.

An electric submersible pump includes a plurality of centrifugal pump stages, each stage including a rotating impeller and a stationary diffuser mounted on a shaft coupled to a motor. An upthrust washer can be disposed axially between an impeller and its associated diffuser at or near a tip of the impeller, and the gap between the impeller tip and diffuser can define the end play or axial clearance for the pump. If the upthrust washer wears away, upthrust rubbing occurs at the impeller tip instead of proximate the pump shaft to advantageously help protect the shaft from damage or failure related to heat. In some ESPs, an upthrust bearing assembly can be located at the pump head. A downthrust washer can be disposed in an upstream facing groove of the impeller. The downthrust washer can have a thickness greater than 0.10 in.

A fluid pump for conveying a fluid is provided comprising: a housing with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a rotor which is disposed rotatably about an axis of rotation in the housing, and a rotor body and at least one conveying element connected rigidly to the rotor body in order to convey the fluid from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet, the rotor being mounted in the housing radially to the axis of rotation by means of a passive magnetic bearing and also axially and radially by means of a mechanical and/or hydrodynamic bearing disposed on the inlet side or outlet side. A safety bearing is disposed on one side of the rotor situated opposite the mechanical and/or hydrodynamic bearing, wherein the safety bearing has a first safety bearing component connected rigidly to the rotor and a second safety bearing component connected rigidly to the housing.

A compliant keyway for an electric submersible pump (ESP) bearing sleeve is described. A compliant keyway system for an ESP bearing sleeve includes the ESP bearing sleeve coupled to an ESP shaft by an elongate key such that the ESP bearing sleeve is rotatable with the ESP shaft, the ESP bearing sleeve inward of a non-rotatable bushing, the elongate key seated on a first elongate side within a shaft keyway extending longitudinally along the ESP shaft, and the elongate key seated on a second elongate side within a sleeve keyway, an inner diameter of the ESP bearing sleeve including the sleeve keyway extending along a length of the bearing sleeve, the sleeve keyway including a keyway means for compliance with deflection of the elongate key seated within the sleeve keyway, and the elongate key transferring torque between the ESP shaft and the ESP bearing sleeve.
