Optimized helix angle rotors for roots-style supercharger

A blower may include a blower housing that may include a plurality of rotor chambers and a plurality of rotors. The plurality of rotors may be substantially identical and each may include a twist angle and a helix angle. The rotors and the blower housing may be configured to create internal fluid compression when the rotors are rotating at a first rotational speed and not to create internal fluid compression when the rotors are rotating at a second rotational speed. The rotors and the blower housing may be configured to create the internal fluid compression without backflow slots in the blower housing. The twist angle may include the angular displacement of lobes of the plurality of rotors between axial ends of the plurality of rotors. The helix angle may be a function of the twist angle and a pitch diameter of the plurality of rotors.

10871160 · 2020-12-22 · ·

Volumetric compressor (1) for collection and/or treatment equipment of material in liquid, solid, dusty or muddy form. The compressor (1) comprises an operative chamber (50), defining a suction section and an exhaust section of a first fluid, a first header (61) and a second header (62), which delimit said chamber (50) on opposite parts along a longitudinal axis (101). The compressor further comprises at least two rotors (80, 80) with lobes (81, 81) housed in the chamber (50), each rotor (80, 80) rotating about a rotation axis (108, 108) substantially parallel to said longitudinal axis (101). The lobes of each rotor develop according to a helical profile. Furthermore, each of the headers (61,62) defines at least one injection opening (71, 71,72,72) communicating with a feeding device (150) of a second fluid.

Vacuum pump with cooling apparatus
10690135 · 2020-06-23 ·

The present invention relates to a technology of efficiently cooling a vacuum pump that produces a vacuum in a process chamber of a semiconductor manufacturing facility. The present invention provides a new type of vacuum pump cooling method that keeps the internal temperature of a vacuum pump at a predetermined level by circulating oil through rotors of the vacuum pump, such that it is possible to prevent a rapid increase in the temperature of the vacuum pump and smoothly lubricate bearings at the early stage of operation, whereby it is possible to ensure stability when performing processes and operating the pump and economically maintain the facility.

Rotary compressor for gaseous fluids
10655562 · 2020-05-19 ·

A compressor for gaseous fluids comprises a positive displacement gear pump, as typically used for liquid transfer, modified to effect compression of gases. The pump inlet includes a main inlet plus multiple secondary inlets feeding inlet gases to gear voids spaced from and moving away from the main inlet. The pump outlet includes a main outlet plus multiple feedback passages feeding partially pressurized outlet gases to gear voids spaced from and moving toward the main outlet. The supplemental inlets and feedback passages increase both the throughput of the compressor and the amount of compression imparted to the gases.
