A pump casing defines an inner space including an inlet into which a fluid is introduced, a flow path through which the fluid is introduced from the inlet and discharged to the outside, and an arrangement space in which an impeller rotated about a predetermined central axis is disposed so as to guide flow of the fluid. The pump casing includes a suction casing which forms the inlet, a volute casing which forms the flow path, and the introduced fluid is discharged to the outside by the impeller. The volute casing forms the arrangement space in which the impeller is disposed, and the pump casing further includes a fluid guide device which is disposed in the inner space to guide movement of the fluid which is moved from the inlet toward the arrangement space.

A waste water pump includes an impeller (12) and a surrounding pump housing (4), wherein an impeller side chamber (20) is formed between the impeller (12) and the pump housing (4). The impeller side chamber (20) has a first seal (16) between the impeller (12) and the pump housing (4), towards the intake side (32) of the impeller (12), and a second seal (18) between the impeller (12) and the pump housing (4), towards the pressure side (14) of the impeller (12). The first seal (16) is provided with a conveying device (28, 30) configured to convey debris from the impeller side chamber (20) to the intake side (32) of the impeller (12). The second seal (18) is provided with conveying device (38, 40) configured to convey debris from the side chamber (20) to the pressure side (14) of the impeller (12).

A centrifugal pump assembly includes an electrical drive motor (4, 6), an impeller (14) which is driven by the drive motor and a pump casing (12) surrounds the impeller and including two branches (27, 32, 34). A movable valve element (18) is arranged in the pump casing and is movable between two switching positions, in which the flow paths through the two branches (27, 32, 34) are opened to a different extent. The valve element (18) is configured and arranged in the pump casing (12) such that it separates a suction chamber (24) which is connected to a suction side of the impeller (14) from a delivery chamber (26) which is in connection with the delivery side of the impeller (14). The valve element (18) is mechanically and/or hydraulically coupled to the drive motor (4, 6) for at least a movement between the two switching positions.

A non-clogging pump (100, 200, 300) includes: a pump casing (3); an impeller (4, 204) including a main plate portion (41), a vane portion (43), and a central protruding portion (42); and a rotating shaft (1), in which an end portion (431) on an inner peripheral side of the vane portion (43) is connected to an outer periphery of the central protruding portion (42) when viewed from the suction port (33a) side, and the impeller (4, 204) is provided with a groove portion (45) extending from an inner peripheral side to an outer peripheral side of the impeller (4, 204), between the central protruding portion (42) and the vane portion (43), when viewed from the suction port (33a) side.

A self-orienting gas evading intake for a submersible pump provides an efficient, reliable and inexpensive system for pumping a downhole fluid to a surface. An intake section of a submersible pumping system may comprise a blocker sleeve disposed between an external housing and an eccentric intake. The intake section may be self-orienting such that a gas component of the fluid ascends the borehole to separate from a liquid component of the fluid. Actuation of a blocker sleeve exposes one or more ports of the external housing while blocking one or more other ports. The liquid component is drawn into the intake section through an exposed port and through one or more openings of the eccentric intake. The liquid component may then be drawn into the pump. As the liquid component comprises non-detrimental amounts, if any, of a gas component, the pump operates efficiently and effectively.

A pump (8) is disclosed. The pump (8) includes a partition wall (84) configured to divide the interior of a body into two spaces, a first chamber (C1) located under the partition wall (84), the first chamber (C1) having an introduction portion (841), through which water is introduced, a second chamber (C2) located above the partition wall (84), the second chamber (C2) having a discharge portion (849), through which water is discharged, a communication hole (86) formed through the partition wall (84) to allow the first chamber (C1) and the second chamber (C2) to communicate with each other therethrough, an impeller (85) provided in the second chamber (C2) to move water to the discharge portion (849), a housing configured to define the bottom surface of the first chamber (C1), the housing being made of a conductor, a heater (H) configured to heat the housing (81), and a steam discharge (843) port formed through the first chamber (C1) to allow steam to be discharged therethrough.
