- Piston machines of the type mentioned at the outset which are used as work machines in the form of piston pumps and piston compressors or as power machines in the form of internal combustion engines, compressed gas motors or hydraulic motors for converting the pressure generated in the work space into motion, are known from the prior art.
- a piston machine which has a piston designed as a double pivoting plate.
- the piston which is arranged in an approximately circular sector-shaped housing, is pivotably mounted by means of a rotary cylinder formed thereon and divides the housing into two separate working chambers, each provided with inlet and outlet valves.
- a piston engine is also disclosed.
- the piston machine is equipped with two pistons designed as double swivel plates.
- a housing of the piston engine is formed from two or more housing segments which are each shaped as a circular cylinder segment, but rotated by 180 degrees, integrally joined together, forming a common cavity, with each housing part associated with pistons, each synchronously driven in the opposite direction and arranged in parallel with one another, with the respectively adjacent oblique side wall define an outer working chamber and an inner working chamber between the double piston plates with third and fourth inlet and outlet valves formed in a rear wall at the level of an imaginary dividing line between the adjacent housing parts.
- the invention is based on the object of further developing a piston machine of the type mentioned at the outset so that it can be operated with greater effectiveness.
- the object is achieved with a piston machine designed according to the features of the main claim.
- Appropriate developments of the application are the subject of the subclaims and the exemplary embodiments.
- the piston machine comprises a housing with a chamber which has an essentially circular sector-shaped cross section, and a piston which is designed as a pivoting element and is arranged in the housing and has a first working surface, the housing and the piston defining at least one first variable working chamber. Furthermore, the piston machine comprises an input or output connected to the piston and an outlet arranged in the working chamber for discharging a working fluid.
- the housing has a cooling opening to the chamber in at least one housing wall, at least for convective cooling of a side of the piston opposite the first working surface by means of a cooling fluid. A cooling fluid can be introduced into the chamber through the cooling opening, as a result of which the temperature of the piston and / or the working fluid and / or the housing and / or the chamber can be reduced.
- a working volume of the variable working chamber is typically reduced by the cooling opening.
- the piston machine can be operated with greater effectiveness by cooling.
- other surfaces of the piston and one or more housing walls or parts of the chamber can also be intensively cooled.
- the chamber is delimited by a wall which is circular in cross section.
- the wall which is circular in cross section is referred to as "circular wall”.
- the cooling opening can be provided, for example, in the circular wall.
- the chamber can be flushed by means of a cooling fluid through the opening in the arcuate wall, as a result of which the chamber can be effectively cooled.
- hot re-expansion gases after compression be removed from the chamber in the chamber by a flushing process using the cooling fluid. In this way, the efficiency of the piston machine can be further increased.
- a swivel angle (see, for example, angle ⁇ in the Figures 1-6 ) of the piston can define the maximum deflection of a pivoting movement of the piston from one dead center to the next dead center.
- the swivel angle is preferably 90 90 °, typically ⁇ 60 °. However, the swivel angle is preferably greater than 40 °. Depending on the pressure conditions, different swivel angles can be used. Smaller swivel angles can also be used, in particular for metering pumps, for example ⁇ 10 °.
- a center point angle in a circle is typically specified by the ratio of an arc to the radius r of the associated circle. It can be provided that the opening in the arcuate wall by a first center angle (see, for example, angle ⁇ in the Fig. 2 ) is defined, which is at most as large as the swivel angle (a) of the piston. In a further development, the arcuate wall defines a second center angle (see, for example, angle ⁇ in the Fig. 6 ), which is, for example, at most as large as the swivel angle. The second center point angle is preferably less than 50% of the swivel angle.
- a piston side facing the arcuate wall is preferably arcuate in cross section and can have a third center angle (see, for example, angle ⁇ in the Fig. 10 ) define.
- the second center angle ( ⁇ ) of the arcuate wall is, for example, exactly the same size as the third center angle ( ⁇ ) of the piston side. However, the second center angle can also be smaller or larger than the third center angle.
- the first center angle ( ⁇ ) can be larger or smaller than or as large as the second ( ⁇ ) and / or third center angle ( ⁇ ) mentioned.
- the dimensions of the above-mentioned circular arc-shaped piston side, the circular arc-shaped wall and the opening in the circular-arc-shaped wall can thus be varied and coordinated, depending on how much cooling is required or depending on how large a delivery or working volume of the piston machine should be.
- the piston is typically pivotable about a pivot axis.
- the pivot axis can define an axial direction.
- a radial direction can be defined perpendicular to the axial direction and perpendicular to the swivel direction.
- the opening in the arcuate wall extends over an entire axial extent of the arcuate wall.
- a pivoting movement of the piston defines a pivoting plane.
- the chamber is preferably delimited by a front wall and a rear wall, wherein the front wall and the rear wall can be formed parallel to the pivot plane.
- the cooling opening is formed in the front wall and / or in the rear wall. With this design, cooling can be achieved in a manner similar to that for the above-described design of the cooling opening in the circular wall.
- the cooling opening in the rear wall and / or front wall extends, for example, over an entire radial extent of the rear wall and / or the front wall.
- the drive or output typically comprises at least one crankshaft with a crank pin.
- the crank pin engages, for example, in a connecting rod eye of a connecting rod connected to the piston or in a guide groove of a connecting rod loop fixedly connected to the piston.
- a person skilled in the art is familiar with the fact that there are many possibilities for the design of the drive or the output.
- a speed of the crankshaft is typically more than 1500 min -1 . The speed can even be up to 8000 min -1 or more.
- the piston working area is typically the area of the piston through which or at work. It can further be provided that the piston has a second working surface on a side opposite the first working surface and the piston and the housing define a second variable working chamber with a second outlet valve arranged therein, the cooling opening separating the first working chamber from the second working chamber or lies at least on a dividing line between the first working chamber and the second working chamber. Work can then be performed alternately from the first work surface and from the second work surface, depending on which variable work chamber is just closed and open. The convective cooling by means of the cooling fluid then usually takes place at least on the opposite side of the working surface of the piston.
- the cooling opening is preferably in the circular wall, for example in the middle of the circular wall, and / or in the front wall and / or in the rear wall.
- the two working chambers are typically opened and closed alternately during a complete swivel movement or a rotation of the crankshaft of 360 °.
- the open working chamber is rinsed, for example, by means of the cooling fluid, while a working fluid can be conveyed or compressed in the closed working chamber. With this configuration of the piston machine, the flushing and cooling process mentioned can thus be carried out particularly effectively.
- the working chamber is opened or closed depending on the pivoting position of the piston.
- the cooling fluid preferably flows into the working chamber and at least convectively cools the side of the piston opposite the working surface and / or rinses the working chamber.
- the chamber can further be delimited by a first side wall facing away from the first working surface, the cooling opening being provided in the first side wall.
- the chamber is typically delimited by a second side wall facing the first working surface.
- the variable working chamber can be delimited by the piston, the second side wall, the arcuate, the front wall and the rear wall. If the cooling opening is only provided in the first side wall facing away from the working surface, the working chamber is therefore usually not flushed by means of the cooling fluid. Instead, this design allows permanent convective cooling of the side of the piston opposite the working surface.
- the cooling opening in the first side wall can extend over an entire radial and / or axial extension of the side wall.
- the cooling opening preferably even extends over the entire first side wall, ie the first side wall is omitted. This can further increase the cooling effect.
- one or more housing walls can be removed in whole or in part, whereby a working volume of the chamber is reduced, but overall the working quality of the piston machine can be improved.
- the arcuate wall and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall and / or the said side wall is / are divided into two by the cooling opening.
- the cooling opening can in particular be provided in a housing wall, where there is space and a good flow of cooling fluid is ensured.
- the cooling opening can be formed by various shapes in the housing wall, e.g. a groove, a sector of a circle or a circle or another shape.
- Several cooling openings can also be provided in different walls, e.g. in the arcuate wall and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall and / or the side wall. The cooling openings mentioned can be combined with one another.
- one cooling opening can be designed as a cooling fluid inlet and the other cooling opening as a cooling fluid outlet.
- a cooling opening is formed in the rear wall and in the front wall.
- the cooling fluid can e.g. be let into the chamber through the cooling opening of the rear wall or the front wall and be discharged through the cooling opening of the front wall or the rear wall.
- the cooling opening can also be provided in the arcuate wall and in the rear wall and / or in the front wall. In this configuration, the cooling fluid can e.g. be let into the chamber through the cooling opening in the arcuate wall and be left out through the cooling opening in the rear wall and / or in the front wall.
- cooling openings in different housing walls are also conceivable, in which the cooling fluid is let into the chamber through a cooling opening and is let out of the chamber through the other cooling opening.
- the chamber can be flushed particularly well by means of the cooling fluid.
- cooling openings can have different sizes or even be shared.
- the cooling openings can be designed differently in width and length.
- cooling fluid air, CO 2 or other gases or a liquid such as water
- the piston machine can be operated, for example, as a pump, vacuum pump, compressor or motor.
- a second wall with a circular arc in cross-section can be fastened to the piston, which is arranged on a smaller radius than a maximum radial extension of the piston and engages in a passage of a side wall at least in a pivoted position of the piston, the cooling opening preferably likewise is provided in this side wall.
- the cooling opening forms the inlet for the second wall which is circular in cross section.
- the cooling opening provided in the side wall can be provided, viewed from the pivot axis, above or below the second arcuate wall.
- the second arcuate wall is preferably also cooled by the cooling fluid.
- a second variable working chamber can then be defined at least by the second arcuate wall, the piston and the side wall.
- an inlet valve is arranged in the working chamber, at least for admitting the working fluid into the working chamber.
- the cooling opening differs from the inlet valve.
- the outlet is designed as an outlet valve.
- the cooling opening differs from the exhaust valve.
- An inlet and an outlet valve can thus be arranged in the working chamber, for example in the rear wall, front wall, side wall and / or in the circular wall. Alternatively, the inlet valve can also be dispensed with.
- the piston has cooling fins for convective cooling.
- the cooling fins are preferably on the side of the piston opposite the working surface.
- the piston can also be designed as a hollow body. The cooling of the piston can be further improved by the cooling fins and / or the design as a hollow body.
- a size of the cooling opening can be variably controlled or adjusted, preferably by means of a control element arranged in a housing wall, or a slide or throttle valve.
- a size of the opening can be controlled or reduced or enlarged in order to influence or regulate a cooling air throughput.
- the piston machine can thus be adapted to different performance requirements, and the cooling effect can be controlled during operation.
- the variably controllable cooling opening can be opened or closed mechanically more or less as required, for example by moving a camshaft.
- the variably controllable cooling opening can also be controlled by an electronic control device in order to vary a size of the cooling opening as required during the operation of the piston machine.
- a pressure sensor and / or a temperature sensor are provided in the chamber and / or in the piston, which can be connected to the control device and / or an evaluation device.
- the cooling opening can be opened or closed more or less or its size can be enlarged or reduced. If the measured temperature e.g. is less than a certain threshold value, the cooling opening can be closed in order to increase a delivery volume of the piston machine.
- the delivery volume of the piston machine, cooling fluid throughput, pressure and temperature can be influenced by means of the variably controllable cooling opening in order to increase the efficiency of the piston machine.
- the cooling fluid can move through the piston through the cooling opening be sucked.
- a cooling device preferably a blower or a pump, can be provided for conveying the cooling fluid through the opening of the housing and into the chamber. This makes cooling even more efficient.
- a venturi tube can be provided at the cooling opening, which can increase the throughput considerably.
- the housing can have two or more housing parts which are each shaped as a sector of a circle but joined together by 180 degrees and form a common cavity, a piston being assigned to each housing part. Two adjacent housing parts then define, together with their pistons, at least one variable working chamber. Further details can be found, for example, in the publication DE 10 2010 036 977 B3 .
- a cooling opening can be provided in at least one chamber.
- several or all of the chambers can also have cooling openings.
- piston machine designed as a compressor, e.g. compression to 10 bar and higher, e.g. up to 20 bar, possible with single-stage compression. Furthermore, the piston machine allows an oil-free mode of operation, which is particularly desirable for use as a vacuum pump, compressor or expansion motor.
- Fig. 10 is a piston machine according to the prior art DE 10 2008 040 574 A1 shown, which is made part of the present application.
- the piston machine comprises a housing 1, which includes a chamber 2, a bearing housing 3 and a crankcase 4.
- the chamber 2 has a circular sector-shaped cross section and is in accordance with the shape of a cylinder sector by two side walls 5, 6 arranged at an angle ⁇ of approximately 53 ° to one another, a front end wall (not shown) and a rear end wall 7 and a wall 8 and limited a rotary cylinder 9.
- a bearing housing 3 formed by two opposing bearing shells adjoins the ends of the side walls 5, 6 opposite the circular wall 8.
- a crankcase 4 partially filled with an oil sump 12 is provided.
- the rotary cylinder 9, which is rotatable about an axis of rotation 14, is mounted in the bearing housing 3.
- the chamber 2 is hermetically sealed with respect to the crankcase 4, for example with sealing strips 13 integrated into the bearing housing 3.
- a piston 15 designed as a swivel plate and a connecting rod 16 are rigidly fastened or integrally formed on the rotating cylinder 9 diametrically opposite one another.
- the connecting rod 16 has a guide groove 17 extending over its entire length, into which a crank pin 18 of a crankshaft 19 rotatably mounted in the crankcase 4 engages.
- the piston 15, which is typically designed as a hollow body, is located in the working chamber 2 and has a sealing edge with an upper edge 28 on an inner surface of the curved circular wall 8.
- the upper edge 28 of the piston 15 is circular in cross-section and is defined by a central angle ⁇ of approximately 8 °.
- Inlet walls 22, 24 and outlet valves 23, 25 are formed in each of the two side walls 5, 6 of chamber 2.
- a pivoting movement of the piston 15 defines a swivel plane, the rear end wall 7 and the front end wall being parallel to the swivel plane.
- the angles ⁇ and ⁇ mentioned can also be larger or smaller than in the example shown.
- the piston machine described above can operate as a piston pump or as a piston compressor as follows, but can also function as an internal combustion engine with internal or external combustion that is not described in the function here: during a rotary movement of a crankshaft 19, a crank pin 18 sliding on a crank radius 11 slides in a guide groove 17 a connecting rod 16. This transmits a pivoting movement to the piston 15. With a pivoting movement of the piston 15 from the in the Fig. 10 position shown on the left side wall 5 of the chamber 2 to the right side wall 6, the left inlet valve 22 and the right outlet valve 25 are open, while the left outlet valve 23 and the right inlet valve 24 are closed. A previously sucked-in fluid is thus expelled from the chamber 2 via the right outlet valve 25.
- the piston 15 thus works as a double piston with two working surfaces 29 and 30, which performs two pivoting movements when the crankshaft 19 rotates, that is to say from the left dead center on the left side wall 5 to the right dead center on the right side wall 6 and back.
- the oil sump 12 takes over the lubrication of the crank mechanism, that is, the guide groove 17 and the crank pin 18 sliding in it, which can also be formed with roller bearings and sliding blocks.
- the guide groove 17 can also be arranged in the piston 15. This enables a very compact design.
- crank pin 18 of the crankshaft 19 is connected to the piston 15 in an articulated eye Connecting rod engages.
- the drive or output of the piston machine is therefore not limited to the illustrated embodiments.
- the Fig. 1 differs from that Fig. 10 by the fact that the housing 1 has a cooling opening 51 to the chamber 2 in the circular wall 8. Also, in contrast to the execution of the Fig. 10 no inlet and outlet valves are provided in the side wall 6. A cooling fluid, in the example shown air, flows through the cooling opening 51 into the chamber 2 and cools it. In addition, the piston 15 is convectively cooled by the air on at least one side 32 opposite the working surface 30.
- the piston engine of the Fig. 1 is designed as a compressor, for example, and cooling by means of the cooling opening can increase the efficiency of the compressor.
- a second cooling opening 51 ' can be provided in the side wall 6.
- the second cooling opening is designed, for example, as a cooling fluid outlet through which the cooling fluid can flow out.
- a flow direction of the cooling fluid is indicated in the figure by means of arrows.
- the piston engine of the Fig. 2 differs from the embodiment of the Fig. 10 in that a cooling opening 52 is provided in the center of the circular wall 8. While in the execution of the Fig. 1 in one revolution of the crankshaft 19, two work cycles, namely suction and compression, are possible, in the embodiment of FIG Fig. 2 four work cycles. Due to the central design of the cooling opening 52, the working chamber 2 can be flushed alternately on the left and right with cooling fluid. Depending on the pivoting position of the piston 15, the working chamber 2 opens or the working chamber 2 closes.
- the cooling opening 52 in the circular wall 8 is both in the Fig. 1 as well in the Fig. 2 defined by a center angle ⁇ , which is smaller than a pivot angle ⁇ of the piston 15. In the Fig.
- the openings 51 and 52 in the circular wall 8 extend over an entire axial extent of the circular wall 8. That is, the openings 51 and 52 are formed as an elongated groove in the circular wall and extend from the front end wall to the rear end wall 7. Alternatively, the cooling opening 51 and 52 can also have a smaller axial extent.
- the Fig. 3 differs from that Fig. 10 in that a cooling opening 53 is arranged in the rear end wall 7. Also, in contrast to the execution of the Fig. 10 no inlet and outlet valves are provided in the side wall 6. Furthermore, the piston 15 has only one working surface 30.
- the embodiment of the Fig. 4 differs from the embodiment of Fig. 10 in that a cooling opening 54 is arranged centrally in the rear end wall 7. Like in the Fig. 2 here too the opening 54 is arranged in the center.
- the opening 53 of the Fig. 3 when the piston 15 closes on the right side wall 6, the piston 15 closes the opening 54 when the piston 15 is in the central position Fig. 4 .

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Kolbenmaschine der eingangs erwähnten Art so weiterzuentwickeln, dass sie mit größerer Effektivität betrieben werden kann. Die Aufgabe wird mit einer gemäß den Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs ausgebildeten Kolbenmaschine gelöst. Zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen der Anmeldung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche und der Ausführungsbeispiele.The invention is based on the object of further developing a piston machine of the type mentioned at the outset so that it can be operated with greater effectiveness. The object is achieved with a piston machine designed according to the features of the main claim. Appropriate developments of the application are the subject of the subclaims and the exemplary embodiments.
Die Kolbenmaschine umfasst ein Gehäuse mit einer Kammer, die einen im Wesentlichen kreissektorförmigen Querschnitt aufweist, sowie einen als Schwenkelement ausgebildeten schwenkbaren und in dem Gehäuse angeordneten Kolben mit einer ersten Arbeitsfläche, wobei das Gehäuse und der Kolben mindestens eine erste variable Arbeitskammer definieren. Weiterhin umfasst die Kolbenmaschine einen mit dem Kolben verbundenen Antrieb oder Abtrieb sowie einem in der Arbeitskammer angeordneten Auslass zum Auslassen eines Arbeitsfluids. Das Gehäuse weist in mindestens einer Gehäusewand eine Kühlöffnung zur Kammer auf zumindest zur konvektiven Kühlung einer der ersten Arbeitsfläche gegenüberliegenden Seite des Kolbens mittels eines Kühlfluids. Durch die Kühlöffnung kann ein Kühlfluid in die Kammer eingeführt werden, wodurch die Temperatur des Kolbens und/oder des Arbeitsfluids und/oder des Gehäuses und/oder der Kammer verringert werden kann. Hierdurch lässt sich der Wirkungsgrad der Kolbenmaschine steigern. Typischerweise wird durch die Kühlöffnung zwar ein Arbeitsvolumen der variablen Arbeitskammer verringert. Die Kolbenmaschine kann jedoch durch Kühlung mit einer größeren Effektivität betrieben werden. Je nach Lage der Kühlöffnung können neben der genannten Fläche des Kolbens z.B. auch weitere Flächen des Kolbens sowie eine oder mehrere Gehäusewände oder Teile der Kammer intensiv gekühlt werden.The piston machine comprises a housing with a chamber which has an essentially circular sector-shaped cross section, and a piston which is designed as a pivoting element and is arranged in the housing and has a first working surface, the housing and the piston defining at least one first variable working chamber. Furthermore, the piston machine comprises an input or output connected to the piston and an outlet arranged in the working chamber for discharging a working fluid. The housing has a cooling opening to the chamber in at least one housing wall, at least for convective cooling of a side of the piston opposite the first working surface by means of a cooling fluid. A cooling fluid can be introduced into the chamber through the cooling opening, as a result of which the temperature of the piston and / or the working fluid and / or the housing and / or the chamber can be reduced. This enables the efficiency of the piston machine to be increased. A working volume of the variable working chamber is typically reduced by the cooling opening. However, the piston machine can be operated with greater effectiveness by cooling. Depending on the position of the cooling opening, in addition to the area of the piston mentioned, e.g. other surfaces of the piston and one or more housing walls or parts of the chamber can also be intensively cooled.
In einer Weiterbildung ist die Kammer durch eine im Querschnitt kreisbogenförmige Wand begrenzt. Im Folgenden wird die im Querschnitt kreisbogenförmige Wand mit "kreisbogenförmiger Wand" bezeichnet. Die Kühlöffnung kann beispielsweise in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand vorgesehen sein. Durch die Öffnung in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand kann die Kammer mittels eines Kühlfluids gespült werden, wodurch eine effektive Kühlung der Kammer stattfinden kann. Beispielsweise können heiße Rückexpansionsgase nach Verdichtung in der Kammer durch einen Spülvorgang mittels des Kühlfluids aus der Kammer beseitigt werden. Hierdurch lässt sich der Wirkungsgrad der Kolbenmaschine weiter steigern.In one development, the chamber is delimited by a wall which is circular in cross section. In the following, the wall which is circular in cross section is referred to as "circular wall". The cooling opening can be provided, for example, in the circular wall. The chamber can be flushed by means of a cooling fluid through the opening in the arcuate wall, as a result of which the chamber can be effectively cooled. For example, hot re-expansion gases after compression be removed from the chamber in the chamber by a flushing process using the cooling fluid. In this way, the efficiency of the piston machine can be further increased.
Ein Schwenkwinkel (vgl. z.B. Winkel α in den
Typischerweise wird ein Mittelpunktswinkel in einem Kreis durch das Verhältnis eines Kreisbogens zum Radius r des zugehörigen Kreises angegeben. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Öffnung in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand durch einen ersten Mittelpunktswinkel (vgl. z.B. Winkel β in der
Typischerweise ist der Kolben um eine Schwenkachse schwenkbar. Die Schwenkachse kann hierbei eine axiale Richtung definieren. Senkrecht zur axialen Richtung und senkrecht zur Schwenkrichtung kann eine radiale Richtung definiert werden. Es kann z.B. vorgesehen sein, dass die Öffnung in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand sich über eine gesamte axiale Ausdehnung der kreisbogenförmigen Wand erstreckt.The piston is typically pivotable about a pivot axis. The pivot axis can define an axial direction. A radial direction can be defined perpendicular to the axial direction and perpendicular to the swivel direction. For example, it should be provided that the opening in the arcuate wall extends over an entire axial extent of the arcuate wall.
In einer Ausführung definiert eine Schwenkbewegung des Kolbens eine Schwenkebene. Die Kammer ist vorzugsweise durch eine Vorderwand und eine Rückwand begrenzt, wobei die Vorderwand und die Rückwand parallel zur Schwenkebene ausgebildet sein können. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Kühlöffnung in der Vorderwand und/oder in der Rückwand ausgebildet ist. Mit dieser Ausbildung kann in ähnlicher Weise eine Kühlung erreicht werden, wie bei der oben beschriebenen Ausbildung der Kühlöffnung in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand. Die Kühlöffnung in der Rückwand und/oder Vorderwand erstreckt sich beispielsweise über eine gesamte radiale Ausdehnung der Rückwand und/oder der Vorderwand.In one embodiment, a pivoting movement of the piston defines a pivoting plane. The chamber is preferably delimited by a front wall and a rear wall, wherein the front wall and the rear wall can be formed parallel to the pivot plane. It can be provided that the cooling opening is formed in the front wall and / or in the rear wall. With this design, cooling can be achieved in a manner similar to that for the above-described design of the cooling opening in the circular wall. The cooling opening in the rear wall and / or front wall extends, for example, over an entire radial extent of the rear wall and / or the front wall.
Der An- oder Abtrieb umfasst typischerweise zumindest eine Kurbelwelle mit einem Kurbelzapfen. Der Kurbelzapfen greift beispielsweise in ein Pleuelauge einer mit dem Kolben verbundenen Pleuelstange oder in eine Führungsnut einer fest mit dem Kolben verbundenen Pleuelschlaufe ein. Einem Fachmann ist geläufig, dass es viele Möglichkeiten für die Konstruktion des Antriebs oder des Abtriebs gibt. Eine Drehzahl der Kurbelwelle beträgt typischerweise mehr als 1500 min-1. Die Drehzahl kann sogar bis zu 8000 min-1 oder mehr betragen.The drive or output typically comprises at least one crankshaft with a crank pin. The crank pin engages, for example, in a connecting rod eye of a connecting rod connected to the piston or in a guide groove of a connecting rod loop fixedly connected to the piston. A person skilled in the art is familiar with the fact that there are many possibilities for the design of the drive or the output. A speed of the crankshaft is typically more than 1500 min -1 . The speed can even be up to 8000 min -1 or more.
Die Arbeitsfläche des Kolbens ist typischerweise die Fläche des Kolbens, durch die oder an der Arbeit geleistet wird. Es kann weiter vorgesehen sein, dass der Kolben auf einer der ersten Arbeitsfläche gegenüberliegenden Seite eine zweite Arbeitsfläche aufweist und der Kolben und das Gehäuse eine zweite variable Arbeitskammer mit einem darin angeordneten zweiten Auslassventil definieren, wobei die Kühlöffnung die erste Arbeitskammer von der zweiten Arbeitskammer trennt oder zumindest auf einer Trennlinie zwischen der ersten Arbeitskammer und der zweiten Arbeitskammer liegt. Arbeit kann dann jeweils abwechselnd von der ersten Arbeitsfläche und von der zweiten Arbeitsfläche geleistet werden, je nach dem, welche variable Arbeitskammer gerade geschlossen und geöffnet ist. Die konvektive Kühlung mittels des Kühlfluids findet dann üblicherweise zumindest an der jeweils gegenüberliegenden Seite der Arbeitsfläche des Kolbens statt. Die Kühlöffnung liegt bevorzugt in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand, z.B. in der Mitte der kreisbogenförmigen Wand, und/oder in der Vorderwand und/oder in der Rückwand. Die beiden Arbeitskammern werden typischerweise während einer kompletten Schwenkbewegung oder einer Umdrehung der Kurbelwelle von 360° abwechselnd geöffnet und geschlossen. Die geöffnete Arbeitskammer wird z.B. mittels des Kühlfluids gespült, während bei der geschlossenen Arbeitskammer ein Arbeitsfluid gefördert oder komprimiert werden kann. Bei dieser Ausbildung der Kolbenmaschine lassen sich der genannte Spül- und Kühlvorgang somit besonders effektiv durchführen.The piston working area is typically the area of the piston through which or at work. It can further be provided that the piston has a second working surface on a side opposite the first working surface and the piston and the housing define a second variable working chamber with a second outlet valve arranged therein, the cooling opening separating the first working chamber from the second working chamber or lies at least on a dividing line between the first working chamber and the second working chamber. Work can then be performed alternately from the first work surface and from the second work surface, depending on which variable work chamber is just closed and open. The convective cooling by means of the cooling fluid then usually takes place at least on the opposite side of the working surface of the piston. The cooling opening is preferably in the circular wall, for example in the middle of the circular wall, and / or in the front wall and / or in the rear wall. The two working chambers are typically opened and closed alternately during a complete swivel movement or a rotation of the crankshaft of 360 °. The open working chamber is rinsed, for example, by means of the cooling fluid, while a working fluid can be conveyed or compressed in the closed working chamber. With this configuration of the piston machine, the flushing and cooling process mentioned can thus be carried out particularly effectively.
In einer weiteren Ausbildung ist die Arbeitskammer je nach Schwenklage des Kolbens geöffnet oder geschlossen. Bei geöffneter Arbeitskammer strömt vorzugsweise das Kühlfluid in die Arbeitskammer und kühlt zumindest konvektiv die der Arbeitsfläche gegenüberliegende Seite des Kolbens und/oder spült die Arbeitskammer.In a further embodiment, the working chamber is opened or closed depending on the pivoting position of the piston. When the working chamber is open, the cooling fluid preferably flows into the working chamber and at least convectively cools the side of the piston opposite the working surface and / or rinses the working chamber.
Die Kammer kann weiterhin durch eine der ersten Arbeitsfläche abgewandte erste Seitenwand begrenzt sein, wobei die Kühlöffnung in der ersten Seitenwand vorgesehen ist. Typischerweise ist die Kammer durch eine der ersten Arbeitsfläche zugewandte zweite Seitenwand begrenzt. Ferner kann die variable Arbeitskammer durch den Kolben, die zweite Seitenwand, die kreisbogenförmige, die Vorderwand und die Rückwand begrenzt sein. Falls die Kühlöffnung lediglich in der der Arbeitsfläche abgewandten ersten Seitenwand vorgesehen ist, findet eine Spülung der Arbeitskammer mittels des Kühlfluids somit üblicherweise nicht statt. Stattdessen erlaubt diese Ausbildung eine permanente konvektive Kühlung der der Arbeitsfläche gegenüberliegenden Seite des Kolbens.The chamber can further be delimited by a first side wall facing away from the first working surface, the cooling opening being provided in the first side wall. The chamber is typically delimited by a second side wall facing the first working surface. Furthermore, the variable working chamber can be delimited by the piston, the second side wall, the arcuate, the front wall and the rear wall. If the cooling opening is only provided in the first side wall facing away from the working surface, the working chamber is therefore usually not flushed by means of the cooling fluid. Instead, this design allows permanent convective cooling of the side of the piston opposite the working surface.
Die Kühlöffnung in der ersten Seitenwand kann sich über eine gesamte radiale und/oder axiale Ausdehnung der Seitenwand erstrecken. Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich die Kühlöffnung sogar über die gesamte erste Seitenwand, d.h. die erste Seitenwand wird weggelassen. Hierdurch kann die Kühlwirkung weiter vergrößert werden.The cooling opening in the first side wall can extend over an entire radial and / or axial extension of the side wall. The cooling opening preferably even extends over the entire first side wall, ie the first side wall is omitted. This can further increase the cooling effect.
Zur Bildung der Kühlöffnung im Gehäuse können eine oder mehrere Gehäusewände ganz oder zum Teil entfernt sein, wodurch zwar ein Arbeitsvolumen der Kammer verringert wird, aber insgesamt die Arbeitsqualität der Kolbenmaschine verbessert werden kann.To form the cooling opening in the housing, one or more housing walls can be removed in whole or in part, whereby a working volume of the chamber is reduced, but overall the working quality of the piston machine can be improved.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die kreisbogenförmige Wand und/oder die Vorderwand und/oder die Rückwand und/oder die genannte Seitenwand durch die Kühlöffnung zweigeteilt ist/sind. Die Kühlöffnung kann insbesondere in einer Gehäusewand vorgesehen sein, wo Platz ist und eine gute Durchströmung des Kühlfluids gewährleistet ist. Die Kühlöffnung kann durch verschiedenste Formen in der Gehäusewand ausgebildet sein, wie z.B. eine Nut, einen Kreissektor oder einen Kreis oder eine andere Form. Es können auch mehrere Kühlöffnungen in jeweils verschiedenen Wänden vorgesehen sein, z.B. in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand und/oder der Vorderwand und/oder der Rückwand und/oder der Seitenwand. Die genannten Kühlöffnungen können miteinander kombiniert werden.It can be provided that the arcuate wall and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall and / or the said side wall is / are divided into two by the cooling opening. The cooling opening can in particular be provided in a housing wall, where there is space and a good flow of cooling fluid is ensured. The cooling opening can be formed by various shapes in the housing wall, e.g. a groove, a sector of a circle or a circle or another shape. Several cooling openings can also be provided in different walls, e.g. in the arcuate wall and / or the front wall and / or the rear wall and / or the side wall. The cooling openings mentioned can be combined with one another.
Falls mehrere Kühlöffnungen vorgesehen sind, kann eine Kühlöffnung als Kühlfluideinlass und die andere Kühlöffnung als Kühlfluidauslass ausgebildet sein. Z.B. ist in einer Ausführung eine Kühlöffnung jeweils in der Rückwand und in der Vorderwand ausgebildet. Das Kühlfluid kann z.B. durch die Kühlöffnung der Rückwand oder der Vorderwand in die Kammer eingelassen werden und durch die Kühlöffnung der Vorderwand oder der Rückwand ausgelassen werden. Weiterhin kann die Kühlöffnung auch jeweils in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand und in der Rückwand und/oder in der Vorderwand vorgesehen sein. Das Kühlfluid kann in dieser Ausbildung z.B. durch die Kühlöffnung in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand in die Kammer eingelassen werden und durch die Kühlöffnung in der Rückwand und/oder in der Vorderwand ausgelassen werden. Auch andere Kombinationen von Kühlöffnungen in jeweils verschiedenen Gehäusewänden sind denkbar, bei denen das Kühlfluid durch eine Kühlöffnung in die Kammer eingelassen wird und durch die jeweils andere Kühlöffnung aus der Kammer ausgelassen wird. Die Kammer kann in diesen Ausführungen besonders gut mittels des Kühlfluids gespült werden.If several cooling openings are provided, one cooling opening can be designed as a cooling fluid inlet and the other cooling opening as a cooling fluid outlet. E.g. In one embodiment, a cooling opening is formed in the rear wall and in the front wall. The cooling fluid can e.g. be let into the chamber through the cooling opening of the rear wall or the front wall and be discharged through the cooling opening of the front wall or the rear wall. Furthermore, the cooling opening can also be provided in the arcuate wall and in the rear wall and / or in the front wall. In this configuration, the cooling fluid can e.g. be let into the chamber through the cooling opening in the arcuate wall and be left out through the cooling opening in the rear wall and / or in the front wall. Other combinations of cooling openings in different housing walls are also conceivable, in which the cooling fluid is let into the chamber through a cooling opening and is let out of the chamber through the other cooling opening. In these versions, the chamber can be flushed particularly well by means of the cooling fluid.
Falls mehrere Kühlöffnungen vorgesehen sind, können diese verschieden groß oder sogar geteilt sein. Die Kühlöffnungen können anders in der Breite und in der Länge gestaltet sein.If several cooling openings are provided, these can have different sizes or even be shared. The cooling openings can be designed differently in width and length.
Als Kühlfluid oder Arbeitsfluid können z.B. Luft, CO2 oder andere Gase oder eine Flüssigkeit wie z.B. Wasser verwendet werden. Für den Fachmann ist es ersichtlich, dass die Wahl des Kühlfluids und des Arbeitsfluids von der jeweiligen Ausführungsform der Kolbenmaschine abhängt. Die Kolbenmaschine kann beispielsweise als Pumpe, Vakuumpumpe, Verdichter oder Motor betreibbar sein.For example, air, CO 2 or other gases or a liquid such as water can be used as the cooling fluid or working fluid. It is obvious to the person skilled in the art that the choice of the cooling fluid and the working fluid depends on the particular embodiment of the piston machine. The piston machine can be operated, for example, as a pump, vacuum pump, compressor or motor.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann an dem Kolben eine zweite im Querschnitt kreisbogenförmige Wand befestigt sein, welche auf einem kleineren Radius als eine maximale radiale Ausdehnung des Kolbens angeordnet ist und zumindest in einer Schwenklage des Kolbens in einen Durchlass einer Seitenwand eingreift, wobei die Kühlöffnung bevorzugt ebenfalls in dieser Seitenwand vorgesehen ist. In einer Ausführung bildet die Kühlöffnung den Einlass für die zweite im Querschnitt kreisbogenförmige Wand. Die in der Seitenwand vorgesehene Kühlöffnung kann von der Schwenkachse aus gesehen oberhalb oder unterhalb der zweiten kreisbogenförmigen Wand vorgesehen sein. Vorzugsweise wird die zweite kreisbogenförmige Wand ebenfalls durch das Kühlfluid gekühlt. Eine zweite variable Arbeitskammer kann dann zumindest durch die zweite bogenförmige Wand, den Kolben und die Seitenwand definiert sein. Mit dieser Ausführung ist beispielsweise eine zweistufige Verdichtung möglich.In a further embodiment, a second wall with a circular arc in cross-section can be fastened to the piston, which is arranged on a smaller radius than a maximum radial extension of the piston and engages in a passage of a side wall at least in a pivoted position of the piston, the cooling opening preferably likewise is provided in this side wall. In one embodiment, the cooling opening forms the inlet for the second wall which is circular in cross section. The cooling opening provided in the side wall can be provided, viewed from the pivot axis, above or below the second arcuate wall. The second arcuate wall is preferably also cooled by the cooling fluid. A second variable working chamber can then be defined at least by the second arcuate wall, the piston and the side wall. With this version, for example, two-stage compression is possible.
In einer weiteren Ausführung ist in der Arbeitskammer ein Einlassventil angeordnet zumindest zum Einlassen des Arbeitsfluids in die Arbeitskammer. Typischerweise unterscheidet sich die Kühlöffnung von dem Einlassventil. In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist der Auslass als Auslassventil ausgebildet. Typischerweise unterscheidet sich die Kühlöffnung von dem Auslassventil. Es können somit in der Arbeitskammer ein Einlass- und ein Auslassventil angeordnet sein, beispielsweise in der Rückwand, Vorderwand, Seitenwand und/oder in der kreisbogenförmigen Wand. Auf das Einlassventil kann aber alternativ auch verzichtet werden. Bei geöffneter Kammer wird die Kammer und/oder des Kolbens mittels des Kühlfluids zumindest konvektiv gekühlt und/oder gespült. Bei fortschreitender Schwenkbewegung des Kolbens schließt sich die Kammer anschließend. Das noch in der Kammer verbleibende Kühlfluid kann dann durch das Auslassventil abtransportiert werden.In a further embodiment, an inlet valve is arranged in the working chamber, at least for admitting the working fluid into the working chamber. Typically, the cooling opening differs from the inlet valve. In a preferred embodiment, the outlet is designed as an outlet valve. Typically, the cooling opening differs from the exhaust valve. An inlet and an outlet valve can thus be arranged in the working chamber, for example in the rear wall, front wall, side wall and / or in the circular wall. Alternatively, the inlet valve can also be dispensed with. When the chamber is open, the chamber and / or the piston is at least convectively cooled and / or rinsed by means of the cooling fluid. The chamber closes as the piston continues to pivot subsequently. The cooling fluid still remaining in the chamber can then be removed through the outlet valve.
In einer weiteren Ausbildung weist der Kolben zur konvektiven Kühlung Kühlrippen auf. Vorzugsweise liegen die Kühlrippen auf der der Arbeitsfläche gegenüberliegenden Seite des Kolbens. Der Kolben kann weiterhin als Hohlkörper ausgebildet sein. Durch die Kühlrippen und/oder die Ausbildung als Hohlkörper kann die Kühlung des Kolbens weiter verbessert werden.In a further embodiment, the piston has cooling fins for convective cooling. The cooling fins are preferably on the side of the piston opposite the working surface. The piston can also be designed as a hollow body. The cooling of the piston can be further improved by the cooling fins and / or the design as a hollow body.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist eine Größe der Kühlöffnung variabel steuerbar oder einstellbar, vorzugsweise mittels eines in einer Gehäusewand angeordneten Regelorgans, oder Schiebers oder Drosselklappe. Hierdurch kann eine Größe der Öffnung gesteuert oder verkleinert oder vergrößert werden, um einen Kühlluftdurchsatz zu beeinflussen oder regulieren. Die Kolbenmaschine kann somit an unterschiedliche Leistungsanforderungen angepasst werden, wobei die Kühlwirkung während des Betriebs gesteuert werden kann. Die variabel steuerbare Kühlöffnung kann mechanisch, beispielsweise über eine Bewegung einer Nockenwelle, je nach Bedarf mehr oder weniger geöffnet oder geschlossen werden. Die variabel steuerbare Kühlöffnung kann auch durch eine elektronische Steuervorrichtung gesteuert werden, um ein eine Größe der Kühlöffnung je nach Bedarf während des Betriebs der Kolbenmaschine zu variieren. In einer weiteren Ausführung sind in der Kammer und/oder im Kolben ein Drucksensor und/oder ein Temperatursensor vorgesehen, welche mit der Steuervorrichtung und/oder einer Auswertevorrichtung verbunden sein können. Bei Erreichen eines Schwellenwerts einer Temperatur und/oder eines Drucks in der Kammer und/oder im Kolben kann die Kühlöffnung mehr oder weniger geöffnet oder geschlossen bzw. deren Größe kann vergrößert oder verkleinert werden. Wenn die gemessene Temperatur z.B. weniger als ein bestimmter Schwellenwert beträgt, kann die Kühlöffnung geschlossen werden, um ein Fördervolumen der Kolbenmaschine zu erhöhen. Somit können während des Betriebs der Kolbenmaschine mittels der variabel steuerbaren Kühlöffnung Fördervolumen der Kolbenmaschine, Kühlfluiddurchsatz, Druck und Temperatur beeinflusst werden, um die Effizienz der Kolbenmaschine zu erhöhen.In a further embodiment, a size of the cooling opening can be variably controlled or adjusted, preferably by means of a control element arranged in a housing wall, or a slide or throttle valve. In this way, a size of the opening can be controlled or reduced or enlarged in order to influence or regulate a cooling air throughput. The piston machine can thus be adapted to different performance requirements, and the cooling effect can be controlled during operation. The variably controllable cooling opening can be opened or closed mechanically more or less as required, for example by moving a camshaft. The variably controllable cooling opening can also be controlled by an electronic control device in order to vary a size of the cooling opening as required during the operation of the piston machine. In a further embodiment, a pressure sensor and / or a temperature sensor are provided in the chamber and / or in the piston, which can be connected to the control device and / or an evaluation device. When a threshold value of a temperature and / or a pressure in the chamber and / or in the piston is reached, the cooling opening can be opened or closed more or less or its size can be enlarged or reduced. If the measured temperature e.g. is less than a certain threshold value, the cooling opening can be closed in order to increase a delivery volume of the piston machine. Thus, during the operation of the piston machine, the delivery volume of the piston machine, cooling fluid throughput, pressure and temperature can be influenced by means of the variably controllable cooling opening in order to increase the efficiency of the piston machine.
Das Kühlfluid kann durch die Bewegung des Kolbens durch die Kühlöffnung gesaugt werden. Ferner kann eine Kühlvorrichtung, vorzugsweise ein Gebläse oder eine Pumpe, vorgesehen sein zur Förderung des Kühlfluids durch die Öffnung des Gehäuses und in die Kammer. Die Kühlung lässt sich hierdurch noch effizienter gestalten. Um den Kühlluftdurchsatz noch weiter zu erhöhen, kann an der Kühlöffnung ein Venturirohr vorgesehen sein, welches den Durchsatz erheblich zu steigern vermag.The cooling fluid can move through the piston through the cooling opening be sucked. Furthermore, a cooling device, preferably a blower or a pump, can be provided for conveying the cooling fluid through the opening of the housing and into the chamber. This makes cooling even more efficient. In order to increase the cooling air throughput even further, a venturi tube can be provided at the cooling opening, which can increase the throughput considerably.
Für den Fachmann ist es ersichtlich, dass mehrere Kammern hintereinander oder nebeneinander geschaltet werden können. So kann das Gehäuse beispielsweise zwei oder mehrere jeweils kreissektorförmige, jedoch um 180 Grad gedreht aneinandergefügte, einen gemeinsamen Hohlraum bildende Gehäuseteile aufweisen, wobei jeweils jedem Gehäuseteil ein Kolben zugeordnet ist. Zwei benachbarte Gehäuseteile definieren dann zusammen mit ihren Kolben mindestens eine variable Arbeitskammer. Weitere Einzelheiten befinden sich z.B. in der Druckschrift
Mit einer als Verdichter ausgebildeten Kolbenmaschine ist z.B. eine Verdichtung auf 10 bar und höher, z.B. bis 20 bar, mit einstufiger Verdichtung möglich. Weiterhin erlaubt die Kolbenmaschine eine ölfreie Funktionsweise, welche insbesondere für eine Anwendung als Vakuumpumpe, Kompressor oder Expansionsmotor erwünscht ist.With a piston machine designed as a compressor, e.g. compression to 10 bar and higher, e.g. up to 20 bar, possible with single-stage compression. Furthermore, the piston machine allows an oil-free mode of operation, which is particularly desirable for use as a vacuum pump, compressor or expansion motor.

Die zuvor beschriebene Kolbenmaschine kann wie folgt als Kolbenpumpe oder als Kolbenverdichter arbeiten, aber auch als hier in der Funktion nicht beschriebener Verbrennungsmotor mit innerer oder äußerer Verbrennung fungieren: Während einer Drehbewegung einer Kurbelwelle 19 gleitet ein sich auf einen Kurbelradius 11 bewegender Kurbelzapfen 18 in einer Führungsnut 17 einer Pleuelstange 16. Diese überträgt dabei eine Schwenkbewegung auf den Kolben 15. Bei einer Schwenkbewegung des Kolbens 15 von der in der

Der Ölsumpf 12 übernimmt die Schmierung des Kurbelgetriebes, das heißt der Führungsnut 17 und des in dieser gleitenden Kurbelzapfens 18, der im Übrigen auch mit Wälzlagern und Kulissensteinen ausgebildet sein kann.The

Das einstückig ausgebildete Gehäuse 103 umfasst - angedeutet durch eine gestrichelte Linie X - zwei, jedoch um 180° gedrehte, aneinandergefügte Gehäuseteile 103a, 103b mit jeweils im Wesentlichen kreissektorförmigen Querschnitt, in denen einmal an der oberen Gehäusewand 111 und einmal an der unteren Gehäusewand 112 die Drehzylinder 106 der Kolben 101 und 102 gelagert sind. Eine von dem Gehäuse umschlossene Kammer A1 und A2 hat somit die Form von zwei gleich großen entgegengesetzt nebeneinander liegenden Kreissektoren. Das Gehäuse 103 umfasst weiterhin eine Gehäuserückwand 114 und einen Gehäusedeckel 113 sowie eine erste Seitenwand 115 und eine zweite Seitenwand 116. Die beiden in jeder Position parallel zueinander ausgerichteten Doppelkolben 101, 102 liegen in einer Ausgangsstellung, wie in der
Beispielsweise bei der Funktion als Pumpe wird ein in der inneren großen Arbeitskammer A3 zwischen den beiden Doppelkolbenplatten 101 und 102 befindliches, zuvor über das Einlassventil 18c angesaugtes Fördermedium während der Schwenkbewegung der Doppelkolbenplatten 101 und 102 in Richtung der Trennlinie X gemäß wieder aus der Arbeitskammer A3 ausgestoßen. Während dieser Schwenkbewegung (Ausstoßen) wird gleichzeitig über die Einlassventile 18a und 18b ein Fördermedium in die beiden äußeren (kleinen), sich jeweils zwischen den Doppelkolbenplatten 101 und 102 und den Seitenwänden 115 und 116 bildenden Arbeitskammern A1 und A2 gesaugt. Bei der anschließenden Bewegung der beiden Doppelkolbenplatten 101 und 102 in Richtung der Seitenwände 115 und 116 wird das zuvor in den Arbeitskammern A1, A2 angesaugte Fördermedium durch die Auslassventile 19a , 19b ausgestoßen und gleichzeitig wird Fördermedium über das Einlassventil 18c in die große Arbeitskammer A3 gesaugt. Auf diese Weise ist mit zwei zusammenwirkenden Doppelkolbenplatten 101 und 102 und drei Arbeitskammern A1, A2 und A3 in ein und demselben Gehäuse 103 ein effektiver Förderbetrieb gewährleistet. Das Maximalvolumen der beiden kleinen äußeren Arbeitskammern A1 und A2 entspricht dem Maximalvolumen der großen, inneren Arbeitskammer A3. Mit gleichermaßen hoher Effektivität kann die oben beschriebene Kolbenmaschine auch als Verdichter oder als Expansionsmotor oder als Kombination von diesen betrieben werden. Beispielsweise kann die mittlere - große - Arbeitskammer A3 als Expansionsmotor arbeiten, während die beiden äußeren - kleinen - Arbeitskammern A1 und A2 als Verdichter oder als Pumpe arbeiten und von dem Expansionsmotor angetrieben werden. Beim Einsatz der beschriebenen Kolbenpumpe als Verdichter könnten die innere Arbeitskammer A3 und eine äußere (linke) Arbeitskammer A1 als erste Verdichterstufe und die andere äußere Arbeitskammer A2 als zweite Verdichterstufe betrieben werden. Somit können die Arbeitskammern A1, A2 und A3 jeweils unterschiedliche Funktionen als Verdichter, Pumpe oder Motor erfüllen.For example, when functioning as a pump, a conveying medium located in the inner large working chamber A3 between the two
