A scroll compressor has a drive shaft which drives a scroll compression mechanism housed in a housing and a drive shaft support member which supports the drive shaft. The drive shaft support member includes a plate portion having a predetermined thickness in an axial direction of the drive shaft. One side end surface of the plate portion has thereon a sliding support surface which supports the sliding movement of an orbiting scroll. Another side end surface of the plate portion has formed thereon a protruding portion which, protruding toward the other side in the axial direction, is fitted onto an inner peripheral surface of the housing. The protruding portion is interference fitted onto the inner peripheral surface of the housing, and thereby the drive shaft support member is fixed to the housing.

A main bearing housing assembly for a scroll compressor and a scroll compressor having the main bearing housing assembly. The main bearing housing assembly comprises: a main bearing housing; and a thrust plates, the thrust plate being provided at the top of the main bearing housing, and comprising a thrust surface located at the top and in surface contact with the bottom end surface of a scroll assembly of the scroll compressor; the thrust plate comprises: at least one oil inlet hole; a closed oil chamber, the closed oil chamber being formed in the thrust plate; and at least one oil outlet hole, the opening of the at least one oil outlet hole being exposed to the thrust surface; and the at least one oil inlet hole is in communication with the at least one oil outlet hole by means of the closed oil chamber.

An example hydraulic motor comprises: a stator comprising (i) a stator body having plurality of roller pockets, wherein the stator body comprises a plurality of grooves that are longitudinally-extending, and (ii) a plurality of rollers disposed respectively in the plurality of roller pockets; a rotor having a plurality of external teeth configured to engage with the plurality of rollers of the stator, such that the plurality of rollers and the plurality of external teeth define fluid chambers therebetween configured to expand and contract as the rotor rotates within the stator; and an anti-cogging passage configured to provide pressurized fluid from at least one of the fluid chambers to at least one groove of the plurality of grooves of the stator body, such that pressurized fluid provided to the at least one groove applies a radially-inward force on a respective roller toward the rotor.

A pump body assembly includes: a crankshaft, a first baffle plate and a second baffle plate. The crankshaft includes a first eccentric portion, a support shaft and a second eccentric portion which are arranged at intervals in an axial direction; the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are arranged in sequence between the first eccentric portion and the second eccentric portion, a first round hole is arranged defined on the first baffle plate, the support shaft is arranged in the first round hole, so that the first baffle plate and the support shaft form a baffle plate bearing, and the baffle plate bearing has a stress relief structure for reducing a contact stress between the support shaft and the first baffle plate.

A low pressure gear pump and wear plate is disclosed. The wear plate may comprise a sidewall, a drive portion, a driven portion, and a transition portion. The sidewall is free of a sealing member or a recess configured to receive the sealing member. The drive portion includes a drive inlet lip, a drive outlet lip, a drive recessed trough and a drive bore. The drive bore is configured to receive the drive shaft of the gear pump. The driven portion may that include a driven inlet lip, a driven outlet lip, a driven recessed trough, and a driven bore. The driven bore is configured to receive the driven shaft of the gear pump. The transition portion may include a transition aperture configured to receive a first fastener configured to mount the wear plate to the gear housing. The wear plate is made of bronze, aluminum or non-magnetic material.

A vane pump includes: a rotor configured to rotate under rotational force from a rotary shaft while supporting multiple vanes and including a curved surface portion with an arc shape centered on the rotary shaft and a rotor recess depressed from the curved surface portion toward a rotation center; a cam ring disposed so as to surround the rotor and including an inner peripheral surface facing the curved surface portion of the rotor; and an inner plate disposed on one end of the cam ring in an axial direction of the rotary shaft so as to cover an opening of the cam ring and including a suction inner recess depressed toward the rotation center relative to the curved surface portion of the rotor.

An electric compressor includes a housing including a compression part housing, a shaft support housing, and a motor housing fastened by a plurality of fastening members. A peripheral wall has a plurality of thick-walled portions that protrudes inwardly in a radial direction and through which their associated fastening members are inserted. The fixed scroll base plate has a plurality of protruded portions each protruding outwardly in the radial direction and disposed between the thick-walled portions in a circumferential direction. The fixed scroll base plate has a plurality of pillar portions each extending from the protruded portions toward the shaft support housing in the axial direction and spaced from each other in the circumferential direction. The elastic plate is held at a plurality of spots by the plurality of pillar portions and the shaft support housing.

To be as lightweight and compact, for example for automotive technology, a scroll compressor further includes an axial guide that supports the movable compressor body to prevent movements in the direction parallel to a centre axis of the stationary compressor body and, in the event of movements, guides it in the direction transverse to the centre axis. A coupling prevents the movable compressor body from rotating freely. The axial guide supports a compressor body base, which carries the scroll vane, of the second compressor body against an axial support face, in that the axial support face abuts a sliding body such that it is slidable transversely to the centre axis. The sliding body is slidable transversely to the centre axis, on a carrier element that is arranged in the compressor housing.
