An improved screw pump such as, for example, a twin screw pump, includes a casing including an internal chamber, and first and second rotors rotatably positioned within the chamber of the casing. The first and second rotors have an intermeshing threaded-shape profiling. A plurality of bearing seal assemblies are provided at each end of the first and second rotors. Each bearing seal assembly includes a bearing positioned about an end portion of a rotor to facilitate rotation of the rotor, and a seal positioned about an end portion of a rotor to seal passage of the rotor through the casing. The bearing is coupled to the seal so that the seal may be secured to the casing via the coupling of the bearing to the casing.

An operating method for a conveying device with an eccentric screw pump for conveying viscous construction materials comprising sensing a pressure of the construction material at an outlet of the eccentric screw pump when the eccentric screw pump is running and automatically switching off the eccentric screw pump if the pressure exceeds an upper limit value, otherwise continued operation of the eccentric screw pump. The method includes sensing a characteristic variable of the running eccentric screw pump and comparison of the characteristic variable with a first comparison variable, which is characteristic of operation with an open dispensing device and/or with a second comparison variable, which is characteristic of operation with a closed dispensing device, and switching off the eccentric screw pump if operation with a closed dispensing device is detected, otherwise continued operation of the eccentric screw pump.

An improved screw-spindle pump, particularly for cooling systems, includes a first screw, a second screw and a pump housing, inside which the first screw and the second screw are rotatably housed between the first screw, the second screw and the pump housing, being defined pumping chambers adapted to move, as a consequence of the rotation of the first screw and the second screw, a fluid from a suction area to a delivery area of the pump.

The pump housing housing the first screw and the second screw is made in one piece.

An improved screw pump such as, for example, a twin screw pump is disclosed. In one embodiment, the screw pump includes a casing, first and second intermeshing rotors, and a liner positioned between the first and second rotors and the casing. In use, the liner is arranged and configured to bend and/or pivot in unison with the first and second rotors under the axial hydraulic pressure experienced by the screw pump during use. In one embodiment, the liner may be arranged and configured to include an asymmetric axial stiffness to facilitate bending of the liner. In another embodiment, the liner may be arranged and configured in multiple segments, the segments being arranged and configured to pivot to approximate the bending of the rotor shafts.

A screw compressor includes a screw rotor having a plurality of screw grooves, a plurality of gate rotors each including gates that mesh with the screw rotor, and a casing. The screw rotor is rotatably inserted in the casing. The casing has a cylindrical wall through which the gates pass. The screw compressor has a plurality of compression chambers inside the cylindrical wall. The plurality of compression chambers are defined by the screw rotor and the gates. The compression chambers include a first compression chamber and a second compression chamber. A fluid introduced into the casing at a suction pressure is compressed to an intermediate pressure higher than the suction pressure in the first compression chamber. The fluid at the intermediate pressure is compressed to a discharge pressure higher than the intermediate pressure in the second compression chamber.
