The present invention relates to a fluid circulator (1) comprising a pump body (2) comprising an impeller (21) for the movement of the fluid; a motor body (10) comprising an electric motor (7, 8, 9) for putting the impeller (21) into rotation around an axis (X-X); as well as an end portion (3) associated with the motor body (10) and containing at least one electronic board (12) for the control of the circulator (1). Advantageously, the end portion (3) is a monolithically cup-shaped lid (14) fitted onto the motor body (10) in substantial continuity therewith to enclose a housing compartment (6) of said electronic board (12) and some electronic power devices (25) are mounted onto the board (12) facing the bottom wall (35) of the cup-like lid (14); moreover, at least one portion (22) of said bottom wall (35) is lowered towards the electronic board (12) and externally provided with some cooling fins (27) extended in parallel to the axis (X-X) of the motor to constitute the heat sink (26); a layer (28) of a good heat conductive material being provided in contact between the electronic power devices (25) and the lowered surface (22).

An electric pump may comprise a pump portion including an impeller, a motor portion configured to activate the pump portion, and a housing configured to contain the pump portion and the motor portion. The motor portion may comprise a rotor configured to activate the impeller, a stator configured to rotate the rotor, a control circuit configured to control a rotation of the rotor, a resin portion configured to cover the stator, and a heat transferring portion contacting the control circuit and the housing, thermal conductivity of the heat transferring portion being higher than thermal conductivity of the resin portion.

A pump device includes a drive unit, a pump unit and a transport unit. The drive unit includes a base frame, and a variable-speed drive device disposed on the base frame. The pump unit includes a rotating shaft driven by the drive device, a fan blade co-rotatably mounted to the rotating shaft, a drain housing receiving the fan blade, and a suction housing in fluid communication with the drain housing. The transport unit includes a plurality of transport tubes in fluid communication with the drain housing.

A multiple pump system is disclosed. The multiple pump system may include a fluid tank and a multiple pump vessel connected to the fluid tank. The multiple pump vessel may include at least one first pump and at least one second pump located therein. In addition, the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense a fluid from the fluid tank at a first pressure, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense the fluid from the fluid tank at a second pressure. The first pressure may be different from the second pressure, such that the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense liquefied natural gas, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense compressed natural gas.

A heat shield for a thrust bearing assembly of a pump. The heat shield includes a member having an inner surface and an outer surface. A raised flange is formed on a perimeter of the inner surface. The raised flange is configured to seal with a back surface of a thrust shoe holder, and form a cavity between the inner surface and the back surface of the thrust shoe holder. At least one weep hole is on the flange. The weep hole is configured to allow water to enter the cavity to form an insulating stagnant water layer.

A metal pump housing includes a shaft support hole for supporting a middle part of a rotary shaft. The rotary shaft includes a first end on which a pump operating portion is provided and a second end on which a motor rotor is provided. A metal motor case is fixed to a part of the pump housing that is at a side of the second end. The motor case accommodates a motor section including a motor stator and a motor rotor. A plastic circuit case member is fixed to a part of the motor case that is opposite to the part to which the pump housing is fixed. A circuit substrate for controlling the motor section is fixed to the circuit case member and is separate from the motor case.

A multiple pump system is disclosed. The multiple pump system may include a fluid tank and a multiple pump vessel connected to the fluid tank. The multiple pump vessel may include at least one first pump and at least one second pump located therein. In addition, the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense a fluid from the fluid tank at a first pressure, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense the fluid from the fluid tank at a second pressure. The first pressure may be different from the second pressure, such that the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense liquefied natural gas, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense compressed natural gas.

The invention relates to an electric coolant pump for a coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine, having a radially accelerating pump impeller and a spiral housing section of a pump housing. A control circuit is arranged about an inlet on the side of the pump housing opposing the electric engine, and is accommodated in an ECU chamber. An open side of the pump chamber and an open side of the ECU chamber are separated by a heat-exchange cover, which is opened into the pump chamber at a mouth of the inlet, wherein a material from which the ECU chamber is made has a lower heat conductivity than a material from which the heat-exchange cover is made.

A heating circulating pump includes a pump housing (1) containing a pump impeller driven by an electric motor. The stator thereof is arranged in a motor housing (8) connected to the pump housing (1). A terminal box (12) is arranged on the motor housing (8), for electrically connecting the motor winding and for receiving electrical and/or electronic components of the motor control system. The terminal box (12) includes at least two parts that are bonded to each other, and the terminal box (12) is designed such that it is sealed from the motor and from the surrounding environment.

A multiple pump system is disclosed. The multiple pump system may include a fluid tank and a multiple pump vessel connected to the fluid tank. The multiple pump vessel may include at least one first pump and at least one second pump located therein. In addition, the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense a fluid from the fluid tank at a first pressure, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense the fluid from the fluid tank at a second pressure. The first pressure may be different from the second pressure, such that the at least one first pump may be configured to dispense liquefied natural gas, and the at least one second pump may be configured to dispense compressed natural gas.
