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.

Mechanically driven modular diaphragm pump
Modular mechanically driven diaphragm pump features are presented herein. Such a diaphragm pump can include a motor, a drive mechanism, and a coupling mounted on a wheeled frame. A diaphragm pump can be mounted to the coupling by forming mechanical static and dynamic connections to brace a housing of the diaphragm pump relative to a drive rod which is moved by the drive mechanism to operate the pump. These mechanical static and dynamic connections can be broken to dismount the pump for replacement or servicing. In some cases, a gas charge can be introduced on the non-working fluid side of the diaphragm to boost performance and/or a dampener can be integrated into the housing of the diaphragm pump and mounted/dismounted with the diaphragm pump.
Axial piston machine utilizing a bent-axis construction
A hydrostatic axial piston machine (1) has a cylinder barrel (7) with a plurality of piston bores having pistons (10) fastened in an articulated manner to a drive flange (3). For articulated fastening of the pistons (10) to the drive flange (3), ball joints (20) are provided that are formed by a spherical cap-shaped receptacle socket (3a) in an end surface (3b) of the drive flange (3) and a ball head (10a) that is operatively connected with the piston (10). The receptacle sockets (3a) are each in the form of hemispheres that extend to the ball equator, and on one end surface (3b) of the drive flange (3), in the vicinity of the receptacle sockets (3a), there is a retaining web (30) that extends beyond the ball equator of the hemisphere to grip the ball head (10a) at an angle of greater than 180°.
Extraction device
An extraction device for use in servicing a pump having a pump housing with a first side, a second side, and a channel extending between the first side and second side. A plunger is located within the channel, and the channel has a threaded opening at the first side. The device includes an externally threaded plug and a driving component selectively extending through the plug. The device is anchored to the pump housing by threading the plug into the threaded opening at the first side. The driving component is then extended into the channel, through and beyond the plug, to engage the plunger and push it out of the housing at the second side.
PUMP AND DRIVE ASSEMBLY
A pump assembly includes a pump module configured to be supported by a fluid tank and a drive module configured to be supported by the pump module. The drive module is mountable to and dismountable from the pump module. The drive module provides a motive force to the pump module to power pumping by the pump module.
