A crankshaft assembly, a compressor and a refrigeration device are provided. The crankshaft assembly has an eccentric shaft component, a spindle component and a main screw oil pump. The eccentric shaft component has an eccentric cavity, and the spindle component has a first cavity communicated with the eccentric cavity. A first through-hole and a second through-hole in a first spindle are each communicated with the first cavity. An outer surface of the first spindle is provided with a first spiral oil groove connecting the first through-hole and the second through-hole. An outer surface of the main screw oil pump is provided with a second spiral oil groove along its length direction, and a spiral direction of the second spiral oil groove is opposite that of the first spiral oil groove.

A rotary fluid machine that reduces fluid leakage from a gear pump or gear motor and achieves improvement in responsiveness is provided. The present invention is configured such that force of pressing a side plate toward gears by a seal member provided between the side plate and a case and performing pressure compartment is partly strong, not uniform along the entire length of the seal member. Specifically, for example, a gear pump comprises an assembly including a pair of gears, a side plate sealing a side surface of the gears, and a seal block sealing tooth tips of the gears, a case housing the pump assembly, and a seal member being arranged between the side plate or the seal block and the case and along a notch portion formed in the side plate or the seal block. The seal member is wider at a portion in a position passing through a place with large pressure fluctuations than at other portions.

Two rotors with two lobes are eccentrically mounted within the chamber of a two-lobe rotary machine. The rotors have a periphery defined by a the path of the opposing rotor apex.

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.

Two rotors with two lobes are eccentrically mounted within the chamber of a two-lobe rotary machine. The rotors have a periphery defined by a the path of the opposing rotor apex.

Prime movers are provided that can include: a fixed member in operational relationship to a rotating member; a reciprocating vane assembly operationally engaged with the rotating member; and a track member about the rotating member and engaging the reciprocating vane assembly. Engines are provided that can include: a stator in operational relationship to a rotor; a reciprocating vane assembly operationally engaged with the rotor; and a track member about the rotor and engaging the reciprocating vane assembly. Processes for powering a prime mover are also provided, the processes can include engaging vanes between a fixed member and rotating member to create compression and expansion zones, the engaging comprising guiding the vanes from a track member about the rotating member.

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.

A method for fixing rotary pistons in a rotary piston pump and a method for dismantling rotary pistons of a rotary piston pump, where the rotary piston pump has two counter-rotating rotary arranged in a pump space on drive shafts. The rotary pistons each include a seating for the drive shafts. The respective drive shaft is arranged and fixed with an end region in the seating of the respective rotary piston. A diameter of the drive shafts in the end region can be widened elastically. In an operational state, in which the rotary pistons are arranged on the respective drive shafts, a frictional connection is formed between the respective seating of the rotary piston and the end region of the respective drive shaft.

A magnetically engaged pump includes a pump housing with a rotatable magnetic drive assembly, a cylindrical canister and a rotatable driven magnet assembly. This magnetic coupling is associated with a pump rotor and a laterally positioned gear wheel to define a gear pump. This magnetic coupling is alternatively associated with a pump rotor with an impeller to define a centrifugal pump. Either pump includes a stationary shaft to mount the driven magnet assembly and pump rotor. A rotatable carrier with bushings and thrust bushings coaxially supports the rotatable driven magnet assembly and pump rotor.
