A fluid transfer pump that has a housing, a body portion movable within the housing between a first position and a second position, a gear coupled to the housing, a body cavity defined partially between the body portion and the housing, and an aperture defined in the housing that selectively provides a fluid to the body cavity. When the fluid is applied to the body cavity at or above a pilot pressure, the body portion is in the first position adjacent to the gear and when the fluid is applied to the body cavity at a fluid pressure lower than the pilot pressure, the body portion is in the second position and spaced from the gear.

A vane pump includes a rotor having slits, vanes received in the slits, a cam ring having an inner circumference cam face with which the vanes are brought into sliding contact, a side member, pump chambers formed by the rotor, the cam ring, and adjacent vanes, and back pressure chambers formed in the slits by the vanes. In the vane pump, the side member is provided with a back pressure opening portion opening at a sliding-contact surface in sliding contact with the rotor, the back pressure opening portion being configured to communicate with the back pressure chambers, and a protruding opening portion protruding along the rotating direction of the rotor from an end portion of the back pressure opening portion on the communication-finishing side. An inner-side inner circumferential surface of the protruding opening portion is connected to an inner-side inner circumferential surface of the back pressure opening portion.

A vane cell pump, including: a rotor and a plurality of vanes rotatable with the rotor, wherein the rotor includes a sub-vane chamber for each vane, and each vane forms a shifting wall of the sub-vane chamber assigned to it; first and second end-facing walls adjoining the rotor on end-facing sides and which, in order to control pressure to the sub-vane chamber, include sub-vane cavities which extend in the circumferential direction of the rotor and include control edges as viewed in the circumferential direction; wherein the control edge of the sub-vane cavity of the first end-facing wall, and the control edge of the sub-vane cavity of the second end-facing wall which is similar to it, are arranged angularly offset about the rotational axis as the apex with respect to each other.

A vane rotary compressor includes a roller rotatably supported in a cylinder and including a plurality of vane slots formed along a circumferential direction with back pressure chambers formed at one end of each of the vane slots. A plurality of vanes are slidably supported in the vane slots protruding toward an inner circumferential surface of the cylinder. A compression space formed by the vanes between the roller and the cylinder includes an inlet port and an outlet port formed at both sides of a contact point between the roller and the cylinder. A vane positioned between the inlet port and the outlet port is configured such that a front gap between a front surface of the vane and the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder is smaller than a rear gap between a rear surface of the vane and an inner surface of the back pressure chamber.

A fluid pump includes a rotor which is centered about an axis, the rotor having a rotor central chamber and a plurality of vane slots. A stator has a recess therein within which the rotor is located, the recess having a recess peripheral surface which is eccentric to the axis. Each vane slot includes a vane therein such that the vanes define a plurality of pumping chambers which expand and contract based on rotational position the rotor relative to the stator. A positioning ring is located within the rotor central chamber such that the positioning ring engages each vane and such that the positioning ring urges each vane into contact with the recess peripheral surface. The positioning ring is radially aligned with a midpoint of each vane.

A transfer device that includes a case that houses a transfer mechanism; a strainer that suctions oil stored in a lower portion of the case; a valve body that has a hydraulic supply circuit that supplies a hydraulic pressure to the transfer mechanism and a suction oil path that discharges an extra hydraulic pressure that is extra for the hydraulic supply circuit; a first suction inlet that communicates with one of the suction oil path and the strainer and a second suction inlet that communicates with the other of the suction oil path and the strainer, and a balanced vane pump.

A back pressure space of a vane groove having completed communication with an intermediate-pressure supply groove communicates with a first supply section until refrigerant pressure in each of compression chambers having been partitioned by vanes of the vane grooves reach the highest pressure, and then high pressure is supplied from the first supply section. At a time point when the back pressure space having completed communication with an intermediate-pressure supply groove communicates with the first supply section of a high-pressure supply groove, the preceding back pressure space adjacent to that back pressure space on the downstream side of the rotation direction completes communication with the first supply section.

A variable displacement oil pump includes: a variable displacement mechanism that is able to change a discharge amount per rotation of an input shaft. The variable displacement mechanism includes a pump housing, an oil pressure chamber provided in the pump housing, and a capacity adjustment member displaced by oil pressure from the oil pressure chamber. The capacity adjustment member is configured to be operated when receiving control oil pressure that is supplied from a control valve to the oil pressure chamber. The pump housing has an oil release hole that is opened to face the oil pressure chamber and that penetrates a wall section of the pump housing to partially release oil.
