A double curvature blade for a portion of system. The system may include a pump, such as a submersible pump. The pump may include a multiple or single stage pump. The pump may be powered by a selected motor.

A pump impeller, which can be part of a pump, has an impeller surface and blades being arranged on the impeller surface, wherein at least one of the blades is a blade of the first type which has a blade edge which is inclined toward the front in the rotational direction. The pump impeller can also have blades of a first type and of a second type, the blade geometries thereof differing from one another. A housing element for a pump or of a pump has a housing inner wall defining a flow channel for a fluid medium extending along a central axis. The cross section of the flow channel is greater in a main flow direction and the housing inner wall has a surface structure configured such that it counteracts a return flow counter to the main flow direction along the housing inner wall of the fluid medium.

A centrifugal fan for use as a blower in a heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVACR) system has a plurality of blades each having a leading edge camber angle of at or about 10 degrees to at or about 30 degrees, a trailing edge camber angle of at or about 10 degrees to at or about 30 degrees, a stagger angle of at or about 35 degrees to at or about 55 degrees, and a chord having a length L, wherein the length L over the diameter of the centrifugal fan divided by the diameter D satisfies the inequality 0.25≤L/D≤0.42. The fan blades having these parameters provide improved fan efficiency at certain operating conditions. The fan blades may further have a forward or radial sweep. The fan blades may have a uniform thickness from the leading edge to the trailing edge.

A double curvature blade for a portion of system. The system may include a pump, such as a submersible pump. The pump may include a multiple or single stage pump. The pump may be powered by a selected motor.

A turbocharger turbine wheel can include a hub that includes a rotational axis, a backdisk and a nose, where the rotational axis defines an axial coordinate (z) in a cylindrical coordinate system that includes a radial coordinate (r) and an azimuthal coordinate (Θ) in a direction of intended rotation about the rotational axis; and blades that extend outwardly from the hub, where each of the blades includes an inducer portion and an exducer portion, where, in the inducer portion, in a direction outwardly from the hub, each of the blades includes positive lean angles, a zero lean angle and negative lean angles and where, in the exducer portion, in a direction outwardly from the hub, each of the blades includes negative lean angles, a zero lean angle and positive lean angles.

A hydraulic pump includes a casing, an impellor pump comprising a rotor that is rotationally mobile with respect to the casing about a first axis, the rotor comprising several blades in helix form, a transition zone belonging to the casing and having, on the side of the impellor pump, a ramp in helix form developing in the same direction as the helix form of the blades, a trochoid pump comprising a rotor with outer toothing secured to the rotor of the impellor pump, and a rotor with internal toothing that is rotationally mobile with respect to the casing about a second axis parallel to and offset from the first axis, the trochoid pump being fed by the impellor pump through the transition zone running along the ramp.

A magnetic levitation centrifugal pump, comprises: one hollow body provided with at least one inlet connector and with at least one outlet connector for blood; one rotor element, housed inside the hollow body and comprising at least one magnetic portion, where the rotor element can be commanded in rotation about an axis of rotation, without contact, by a stator element associable with the hollow body, the rotor element comprising at least one revolving body, which defines an upper surface supporting a plurality of blades which are adapted to convey blood towards the outlet connector; where the upper surface has a substantially concave shape and where the revolving body comprises at least one through hole which is positioned along the axis of rotation.

The foot spa has a rotating drive hub and a pump. The hub has North and South pole domains encircling a rotation axis in alternating relation. The pump includes a housing and an impeller, the housing having a pair of sides and defining: a cavity having a center and a periphery; an intake that communicates with the cavity center; and one or more ports communicating with the periphery. The impeller is mounted in the cavity and: defines blades which are adapted, upon rotation of the impeller in the cavity, to draw water through the intake and eject water through the one or more ports; and includes a portion that is ferromagnetic and a portion that is not ferromagnetic, the portions: being adapted such that rotation of the drive hub causes rotation of the impeller and abutting one another, one being axially displaced from the other.

An impeller for use in an aquarium filter pump includes a shaft and a plurality of impeller blades radially extending from the shaft. Each of the impeller blades includes opposite blade faces. A depression is in each of the blade faces and aids in pushing the water. The depression can be a variety of shapes and can have its deepest portion along one of the edges of the blade.

A radial impeller includes a hub, a disk, and a plurality of blades. The disk is affixed to the hub. The disk has a disk plane defined by the disk. Each blade of the plurality of blades is affixed to the disk. Each blade includes a “C” shaped body portion and an upper and lower horizontal extension. The upper horizontal extension extends along an upper plane parallel to the disk plane. The lower horizontal extension extends along a lower plane parallel to the disk plane.
