  • the invention relates to a rotor assembly for a pump, in particular for a rotary piston pump.
  • Rotary pumps usually have two parallel-lying rotor shafts, which are coupled in their rotational movement with each other and each carry a rotatable piston or a gear at one axial end.
  • the pistons or gears mesh with each other and form a positive displacement pump. It is important for these pumps that the pistons run synchronously.
  • both the piston and the transmission elements which couple the two shafts rotatably connected to the rotor shafts rotatably connect. At the same time an accurate adjustment of the elements on the shafts is required to ensure the synchronous running of the two pistons so that they rotate into each other.

  • the plurality of pockets on the rotor shaft and the corresponding, opposite pockets on the rotor are preferably arranged distributed irregularly over the circumference.
  • the connecting elements are glued in the pockets on the rotor and / or in the pockets on the rotor shaft.
  • the fasteners are secured in the pockets so that they can not slip out or come loose. So a durable connection between rotor and rotor shaft can be created.
  • the connecting elements may be designed to be spreadable in their diameter direction. This makes it possible to easily insert the connecting elements in the opposite pockets and then to spread so that they tense in the pockets. So then a firm connection between rotor and rotor shaft is created. At the same time this allows an automatic accurate alignment or adjustment of the opposite pockets during spreading of the connecting element.

Further, the invention relates to the attachment of the pinion 6 and 8 on the rotor shafts 16, 18. If below the further embodiments of these fasteners only will be described with reference to one of the two rotor assemblies 2 and 4, it is understood, however, that the configuration is selected according to the respective other rotor assembly.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 show a first embodiment according to the invention of the attachment of the rotor 12 to the rotor shaft 16.
  • the rotor 12 is connected to the rotor shaft 16 at a shaft end, in such a way that it is plugged onto the rotor shaft in the direction of the axis of rotation or rotation.
  • the rotor 12 has in its interior, concentric with the longitudinal or rotational axis X, a recess 20, into which the rotor shaft 16 engages with its shaft end 22.
  • At the outer periphery of the shaft end 22 are formed semicircular or semi-cylindrical pockets 24 whose longitudinal axes and peripheral surfaces extend parallel to the rotation axis X.
  • pockets 26 are formed on the inner circumference, which also have a semi-circular cross-section or a semi-cylindrical shape and their central axes extend parallel to the axis of rotation X.

Accordingly, the end faces of the cylinder body 34, which face the projection 44, are chamfered such that between the cylinder bodies 34 and the projection 44 annular grooves are formed, which widen outwardly. In these grooves clamping rings 46 are arranged.

  • This embodiment of the connection between the pinion 6 and the rotor shaft 16 facilitates the alignment of the pinion 6 in a certain angular position with respect to the longitudinal axis X during assembly. This alignment is required because the rotors 12 and 14 must be arranged at a certain angle to each other and rotate each other.
  • the pinion 6 can first be pushed onto the rotor shaft such that initially only the cylindrical contact surfaces 52 and 56 come to rest. In this position, the pinion 6 is aligned in the radial direction on the rotor shaft 16, but can still be moved in the axial direction along the longitudinal axis X and in the circumferential direction. When the desired angular orientation is achieved, the pinion 6 is further displaced in the axial direction toward the shaft end 22, so that the conical inner surface of the recess 48 comes to rest on the conical bearing surface 50 of the rotor shaft 16.
