The invention relates to a radial reciprocating engine (1) having cylinders (5) arranged in a cylinder carrier (16) and a piston element (21) arranged in each cylinder (5) that is connected to a guide element (22), wherein the guide element (22) runs on a slide surface (14), whereby a stroke movement is imposed on the piston element (21). Since the piston element (21) is spherical at least in the region of the piston element (21) which seals the inner walls (51) of the cylinder (5) during the stroke movements, a linear seal is created, which enables a more compact design in comparison to radial pumps with cylindrical piston elements.

Systems and methods to enhance the flow of fracturing fluid into a wellhead during a high-pressure fracturing operation may include providing a pump frame and a crankshaft. A plurality of first plungers may be connected to the crankshaft and may reciprocate in a first plane. The hydraulic fracturing pump also may include a plurality of second plungers connected to the crankshaft and positioned to reciprocate in a second plane. The first plane and the second plane may define a non-zero offset angle between the first plane and the second plane. The crankshaft may include a plurality of crankpins, and each of the crankpins may be connected to one of the first plungers and one of the second plungers. The first plungers may pump a first fracturing fluid and the second plungers may pump a second fracturing fluid different from the first fracturing fluid.

The purpose of the present invention is to increase the pressure of fuel while reducing an increase in the maximum lift amount of a cam and deterioration of a fuel injection ability. This cam for use in a fuel injection pump that increases the pressure of fuel supplied into a fuel supply chamber by an axial movement of a plunger. The cam includes a first cam surface that causes an increase rate of an axial speed of the plunger when the cam rotates at a constant speed, in a pre-stroke period until the plunger increases the pressure of the fuel in the fuel supply chamber, to be a first increase rate, and a second cam surface that causes the increase rate of the axial speed of the plunger when the cam rotates at the constant speed, in a pressure increasing period that is a period from a start of increasing the pressure of the fuel in the fuel supply chamber by the plunger, to be a second increase rate, wherein the first increase rate is set higher than the second increase rate.

Pump, in particular a high-pressure fuel pump, having at least one pump element (10) which has a pump piston (12) which is driven in a reciprocating movement by way of a drive shaft (14) with at least one cam (16; 160) and delimits a pump working chamber (24) which can be filled with delivery medium via an inlet valve (26) during the suction stroke of the pump piston (12). The at least one cam (60; 160) of the drive shaft (14) is a multiple cam with a plurality of cam delivery regions (16a, 16b) for the delivery strokes of the pump piston (12), or a plurality of single or multiple cams (160) with in each case at least one cam delivery region (160a, 160b) for the delivery strokes of the pump piston (12) are provided which are arranged next to one another in the direction of the rotational axis (15) of the drive shaft (14). The cam profiles of the cam delivery regions (16a, 16b) of the at least one multiple cam (16) or the cam profiles of the cam delivery regions (160a, 160b) of the single cams (160) are of different configuration.

A cooling system is for cooling a sensor cleaning system of a vehicle. the cooling system includes a collector configured to accommodate water, which reaches a windshield of the vehicle, a pump providing a flow force for moving the water accommodated in the collector along a conduit, and a cooling module to which water moving along the conduit flows and which surrounds a cooling target.

Embodiments of the invention provide a pump assembly for a hydraulic tool. The pump assembly can include a reciprocating element that is configured to move between a retracted position and an extended position, a cam surface in the reciprocating element that can engage cam followers, a rotating element that can receive rotational input, and a base that can at least partially surrounds the rotating element. Movement of the cam followers along the cam surface can move the reciprocating element from the retracted position to the extended position.
