Definitions
- the present invention relates to a gerotor oil pump. More specifically, the present invention relates to a gerotor pump (generated pump rotor) comprising an inner rotor with a given number of lobes; and an outer rotor (normally with one more lobe than the inner rotor).
- the inner rotor is eccentric with respect to the outer rotor, and the inner rotor lobes mesh with the outer rotor lobes to cyclically form a number of compression chambers between the lobes, in which the fluid is compressed and fed to a delivery conduit.
- Gerotor pumps are used in a wide range of applications, such as automotive oil pumps.
- Gerotor pumps are also widely used in farm tractor hydraulic circuits.
- the present invention may therefore be used to particular advantage, though not exclusively, in the manufacture of farm tractors, to which the following description refers purely by way of example.
- Known gerotor pumps normally comprise a pump body closed by a cover.
- the pump body in turn comprises a cavity for housing:
- the thickness of the rotors must necessarily be increased, thus resulting, in the case of very thick rotors, in a considerable increase in vibration and therefore in the noise level of the pump.
- the present invention is designed to eliminate these drawbacks by cutting the inner rotor (and possibly also the outer rotor) into at least two portions along a plane perpendicular to its axis of rotation.
- the rotors may be more than two in number, and may be of the same or different thicknesses.
- Number 10 in Figure 1 indicates as a whole a gerotor pump in accordance with the present invention.
- Gerotor pump 10 comprises a pump body 11 and a cover 12 which "pack" together a number of parts described below.
- Said parts comprise a first outer rotor 13; a first inner rotor 14; an annular partition disk 15; a second inner rotor 16; a second outer rotor 17; and a drive shaft 18 rotated by a motor (not shown) and having a longitudinal axis (AX) which is also the axis of rotation of drive shaft 18.
- Pump body 11 (which is later closed by cover 12) has a cavity (CV) for housing :
- both disk 15 and the two outer rotors 13, 17 are mounted idly on drive shaft 18.
- the outside diameters of disk 15 and the two outer rotors 13, 17 are substantially equal to the diameter of cavity (CV) of pump body 11.
- One aspect of the present invention therefore lies in cutting an inner rotor and an outer rotor each into two parts along a plane ( ⁇ ) substantially perpendicular to the axis (AX) of drive shaft 18 ( Figure 1 ).
- the two inner rotors 14, 16 can be mounted offset with respect to each other by an angle (not shown) formed between a lobe (LB2) of a first lobed portion (14) and a lobe (LB3) of a second lobed portion (16).
- the offset angle may be such that at least one lobe (LB2) of inner rotor 14 corresponds to a gap between two adjacent lobes (LB3) of inner rotor 16.
- Offsetting inner rotors 14 and 16 is advantageously assisted using a drive shaft 18 with longitudinal grooves (not shown in Figure 1 ) which mate with like grooves (not shown) in the walls of respective central through holes (FP1), (FP3) of inner rotors 14, 16.
- a partition disk 15 when pump 10 is fully assembled, parts 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 are packed together between the end (FND) of cavity (CV) of pump body 11 and cover 12, which is tightened onto pump body 11 by four screws (VT); and parts 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 are all fitted through with drive shaft 18, the ends 18A, 18B of which are supported by bearings (BR1), (BR2) housed respectively inside a seat (ALL1) in the end (FND) of cavity (CV), and a seat (ALL2) inside cover 12.
- bearings (BR1), (BR2) housed respectively inside a seat (ALL1) in the end (FND) of cavity (CV), and a seat (ALL2) inside cover 12.
- partition disk 15 forms a first pumping chamber (PP1) and a second pumping chamber (PP2).
- first pumping chamber (PP1) is defined at one end by end (FND) of cavity (CV), and at the other end by a first face (FFC1) of partition disk 15, and houses first outer rotor 13, first inner rotor 14, and a first portion of drive shaft 18.
- Second pumping chamber (PP2) is defined at one end by the end of cover 12, and at the other end by a second face (FFC2) of partition disk 15, and houses second inner rotor 16, second outer rotor 17, and a second portion of drive shaft 18.
- the two pumping chambers (PP1), (PP2) are isolated hydraulically, as stated, by partition disk 15.
- CND1 common intake conduit
- PP2 pumping chambers
- PP3 pumping chambers
- CND2 delivery conduits
- CND3 delivery conduits
- intake conduit (CND1) branches off into a first portion (PZ1) ( Figure 4 ) on the pump body 11 side, and a second portion (PZ2) on the cover 12 side.
- a first delivery conduit (CND2) is formed in pump body 11, and a second delivery conduit (CND3) in cover 12.
- the delivery conduits (CND2), (CND3) may be connected by an inner channel (TB) connected to a further inner return channel (CND4) which may be parallel-connected to a relief valve (VVM).
- VVM relief valve
- An intermediate conduit (CND5) connects inner return channel (CND4) hydraulically to intake conduit (CND1).
- VVM relief valve
- partition disk 15 is replaced by a contoured disk 150, again located between the two pumping chambers (PP1), (PP2).
- contoured disk 150 has a first intake opening 152 and a second delivery opening 151 hydraulically connecting the two pumping chambers (PP1), (PP2).
- Contoured disk 150 also has a through hole (FP4) fitted through, in use, with drive shaft 18.
- the two faces (FFC3) and (FFC4) of contoured disk 150 may have grooves and/or slits and/or dead cavities by which to produce preferential paths and/or variations in speed and pressure in the oil flow inside the two pumping chambers (PP1), (PP2).
- Each end point (P1), (P2) of second opening 152 of contoured disk 150 has a projection (ELl), (EL2).
- the two projections (ELl), (EL2) are fixed to the wall of cavity (CV) ( Figure 1 ) in pump body 11 ( Figure 1 ).
- contoured disk 150 must obviously be fixed to the wall of cavity (CV) to prevent the contoured disk from rotating, and to ensure correct positioning of first intake opening 152 and second delivery opening 151.
- the main advantage of the gerotor pump according to the present invention is that of providing a pump with extremely thick lobed rotors (and therefore high flow) while at the same time reducing vibration and the noise level of the pump.
- the present invention was conceived precisely to eliminate these drawbacks, by cutting the inner rotor (and possibly also the outer rotor) into at least two portions along a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the inner rotor.
