The present teachings generally include an energy recovery device with heat dissipation mechanisms. The energy recovery device can include a main housing, rotors disposed in the main housing, rotor shafts associated with the rotors, and a sub-housing. The sub-housing can have an engaging surface that faces and is spaced apart from the first receiving surface of the main housing with a first gap when the first sub-housing is attached to the main housing.

The invention relates to a rotary lobe pump including a pump housing with a pump chamber, an inlet opening and an outlet opening. A first multi-lobed rotary piston is rotably mounted around a first axis in the pump chamber. A second multi-lobed rotary piston is rotably mounted around a second axis in the pump chamber and meshes with the first rotary piston. The first and second rotary pistons are rotated by a drive unit to create a fluid flow from the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The drive unit includes a first electric drive motor mechanically coupled with the first rotary piston and a second electric drive motor mechanically coupled with the second rotary piston.

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.

A screw compressor includes a screw rotor including a rotor shaft, a radial bearing, a thrust plate, a balance mechanism, which is a slide bearing, a lubrication oil supply flow passage for supplying a lubrication oil, and a working fluid supply flow passage for supplying a working fluid for pressing the balance mechanism toward the thrust plate so that a reverse thrust load acts on the thrust plate.

A screw spindle pump having a housing hi which a drive spindle and at least one running spindle having profile assemblies which engage inside each other are received, the free end of the drive spindle and the end portion of the running spindle being supported on a plate which is arranged in the housing, the plate having two faces which are inclined in opposing directions relative to each other and which form a V-shape and on which one of the spindles is supported, respectively.

A piston compressor, comprising at least one piston compressor element (3) that is provided with a housing (8) with a compression chamber (13) in which a piston (10) is arranged movably back and forth in an axial direction (X-X′) between an upper dead point and a lower dead point by means of a drive shaft (5) driven by a rotary motor (6), and in which between this drive shaft (5) and the piston (10), a kinematic transmission (20) is provided for the primary drive of the piston (10), characterized in that the piston (10) is provided with a complementary drive (25) in the form of an electromagnetic linear drive.

A screw spindle pump constituted by at least two parts is disclosed. The first part includes a housing and at least one spindle system disposed in the housing and capable of being driven in a rotational manner. Furthermore, a pressure region disposed downstream of the spindle system and at least one outlet opening which is connected to the pressure region, the outlet opening discharging the delivery medium out of the pressure region. The second part includes at least one low-pressure chamber disposed upstream of the spindle system and at least one inlet opening for the delivery medium into the low-pressure chamber. The first part and the second part are coupled together, preferably in a rotational manner, so that they can assume at least two different relative positions.

Rotors formed by an additive manufacturing process are presented. In one example, a method of making a rotor is presented including defining a printing order for the application of a first material, and creating a plurality of lobes arranged helically about a central opening or a shaft by adding a first material in the printing order, wherein each of the plurality of lobes defines an outer surface.
