An element for compressing or expanding a gas including a rigid housing (2) containing an internal chamber; a rotor (3a, 3b) situated in the internal chamber and comprising a rotor shaft (4a, 4b); one or more bearings (7) in which the rotor shaft (4a, 4b) is bearing-supported, wherein the rotor (3a, 3b) with its rotor shaft (4a, 4b) is rotatably mounted with respect to the housing (2) by means of these bearings (7), wherein the rotor (3a, 3b) is mounted with one or more clearances with respect to a wall (5) of the internal chamber, and the element (1) is provided with a separate yielding component (10) which is positionally adjustable with respect to the housing (2) in such a way that at least one of the clearances can be acted upon, wherein the separate yielding component (10) is not directly attached to the rotor (3a, 3b).

Technologies are generally described for clearance adjustments in twin-screw pump assemblies. A twin-screw pump assembly may include a conically shaped portion of a drive shaft enveloped by a bushing. For clearance adjustment, both clamping nuts of the drive shaft, which provide pretention to the bushing and secure an axial position of a threaded screw to the drive shaft, may be removed on the flow side of the pump assembly and the bushing loosened to adjust the angularity between bushing and drive shaft. The bushing may then be pushed over the conically shaped portion and both clamping nuts re-assembled. In some examples, a clamping nut of the driven shaft may be designed and used as removal/loosening tool for the drive shaft bushing.

An eccentric screw pump for delivering solid-laden liquids includes a rotor and a stator within which the rotor is rotatably arranged. The rotor and stator are arranged and designed with respect to one another in such a way that at least one chamber is formed, which serves to transport the liquid. The eccentric screw pump has a drive motor for rotating the rotor, a control device for controlling the drive motor at least in a working state, in which the rotor is rotated, and an idle state, in which the rotor does not rotate, and an engagement unit, which is designed to set an engagement between the rotor and stator to an idle engagement in the idle state and to a working engagement in the working state. The idle engagement is less than the working engagement. A method for operating the eccentric screw pump is also disclosed.

A fuel delivery assembly has a sheet-metal casing that sealingly encloses an electric motor and a pump by rolling, a suction-side inlet opening, and a pressure-side outlet opening. The electric motor has a first stator and a rotor, the first stator is provided with a plastic extrusion coating which forms a ring running in encircling fashion between the first stator and the pump. A fuel delivery unit for use in a fuel tank of a vehicle, having a fuel delivery assembly and having a surge tank in which the fuel delivery assembly is arranged in order to deliver fuel from the surge tank to an internal combustion engine.

An element for compressing or expanding a gas including a rigid housing (2) containing an internal chamber; a rotor (3a, 3b) situated in the internal chamber and comprising a rotor shaft (4a, 4b); one or more bearings (7) in which the rotor shaft (4a, 4b) is bearing-supported, wherein the rotor (3a, 3b) with its rotor shaft (4a, 4b) is rotatably mounted with respect to the housing (2) by means of these bearings (7), wherein the rotor (3a, 3b) is mounted with one or more clearances with respect to a wall (5) of the internal chamber, and the element (1) is provided with a separate yielding component (10) which is positionally adjustable with respect to the housing (2) in such a way that at least one of the clearances can be acted upon, wherein the separate yielding component (10) is not directly attached to the rotor (3a, 3b).

A uniaxial eccentric screw pump includes: a rotor 1 including a shaft body of a male screw type; a stator 2 having a through hole 2a of a female screw type through which the rotor 1 is inserted; a casing 3 connected to one end side of the stator 2; an end stud 4 connected, to the other end side of the stator 2; and a position adjusting member 5 that adjusts a relative position of the stator 2 with respect to the rotor 1 in an axial direction.

An oil pump includes: a first core in which an inner rotor having external teeth and an outer rotor having internal teeth are housed; a housing having a recess in which the first core is held; a second core disposed in contact with the first core in an axial direction; and a cover having a holding hole in which the second core is held. The first core has a first recess/projection portion formed on a first axial end surface at a side opposite to an axial end surface opposing a bottom wall of the recess. The second core has a second recess/projection portion formed on a second axial end surface that is in contact with the first axial end surface. A gap is formed between opposing surfaces of the housing and the cover in a state where the first and second axial end surfaces are in contact with each other.
