DE STOUTZ PISTON SPINNING PUMP Filed April 5, 1933 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Patentedv Nov. 17, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT Nol-Flcs Robert de Steutz, zurich, switzerland Application April 5, 1933, Serial No. 664,645 In Switzerland April 12, 1932 4 claims. (ci. 10s- 162) 'I'his inveutlonxelates to piston operated viscose spinning pumps comprising a rotor which is v rotatably arranged in a casing and which includes a plurality `of working bores for the pistons in 5 parallel disposition to the axis of rotation of the rotor which is adapted ,to act in the manner of a rotary valve.
In piston pumps of this type the pistons are actuated by means of a traverse disc with a plane end face obliquely disposed to the axis of the disc,
or a similar traverse'member, thus being imparted a versed sine movement, the speed curve of which is represented by a sine curve.
In the pump according to the present invention v traverse cams are used instead of a traverse disk with a plane end face obliquely disposed tothe axis of the disk for eecting the suction and pressure stroke.
be,.-briey referred 'to as suction cam member and pressure cam. member, respectively.
With the known .spinning pumps including pistons havinga sine movement imparted thereto,.the pressure stroke follows the suction stroke without intermission, i. e. each piston is at rest only in thedead'centre positions of its traverses during thechanges of direction of the movement. Consequently it is necessary that' each working bore for the pistons is connected with the pressure side immediatelyon the/piston leaving the suction side, in order to avoid substantial uctuations in the output of the' pump. In practice this is however, impossibleas a certain spare area on the port face of the slide valve gear must be provided between the pressure and suction control passages respectively andthe working bores in the central position ofthe latter between these passages. iny orderfto prevent working iluid from escaping from thev pressure side ofthe pump to the suction side :thereof by way of the working 44.0 bores or viceversa. The amount lof spare'area must, however, be reduced to a minimum (for spinning pumps to 1 millimeterat the most), with a. view toavoidin'g substantial uctuatlons in the output.
.45 Thus, the slide valve gear of pumps `of this type affords but poor obturation, as the allowable spare area between theworking bores of the pistons and the valve control passages is .too small.
This fact represents one of the rnostl serious ob- 50 jections to spinning pumps with a versed sine piston motion.
This disadvantage can be completely eliminated, according to the invention, by using a cam disc having a lateral traversing guide track with ,55 axially projecting@ cam portions for effecting the Hereinafter the traversecams will suction stroke, for the reason that with this arrangement the pressure cam member can be given any shape, for example in such a manner, that the piston is imparted a uniformly accelerated and a uniformly retarded movement. The speed 5 curve for the piston movement is thus transformed into a straight line inclined to the axis on which the time is plotted and the curve illustrating the movement of the piston assumes a parabolic shape. l l0 In a pump having five pistons. for example, two pistons act in the sense of compressing the working fluid at all times, whereas two pistons draw in and the remaining piston is at standstill. Each piston is thereby uniformly accelerated during a 15 period corresponding to a rotational displacement of the drivershaft of 72 and uniformly retarded during a period of the same duration.
'I'he sum of the speeds of the two pistons simultaneously compressing the working fluid is con- 20 stant at all times. so that the output of the pumps is maintained constant. Thus, the pressure periodsas well as the suction periods have a duration` corresponding to an angle at the centre of the drive shaft of 144 which provides, between 25 the end of each pressure strokeand the beginning of the next. following suction stroke and vice versa, a spare area of port face that corresponds to an angleat the centre of 36 minus the cross sectional area vof the working bore. During the 30 rotation of the drive shaft through these angles of 36 the pistons are atrest.l The thus formed considerable spare area of port face renders the slide valve gear fluid-tight in a high degree, as
compared to pumps with a versed sine piston mo- 35 tion in which the pistons are continually moving, so that the spare area of port face to be provided between the pressure and suction strokes must be cut down to a minimum, in order to avoid substantlal fluctuations inthe output. 40
'I'he allowable yspare area between the ends of the pressure and suction control passages may be vstill increased by shortening the suction curve which can be readily done, as the length of this Curve, i. e, the duration of the suction period has no influence on the uniformity of the output of the pumps. For carrying this feature into effect, the lateral traversing guide track on the traverse cam member, as provided for according to the invention, can be simply provided with recesses of any desired length between the axially projecting cam vportions thereof.
Moreover, the une of a traverse cam member Vadapted to impartto the pistons a uniformly accelerated and retarded motion has the further great advantage over the pumps with a versed sine motion of the pistons of attaining a theoretically and practically perfectly uniform outoiset relatively to each other, so as to produce an equalizing effect. However, even with provisions of this kind the theoretical degree of disuniformity of, for example a ve piston pump, amounts to minimum 5.00% of the normal output. Actually this value is always greater. In order to obtain a perfect uniformity, a pump of this type should be equipped with an infinitely great number of pistons and no spare area of port face should be provided at all.
In contradistinction, thereto, the application of a traverse cam member having a lateral traversing guide track with axially projecting cam portions, as provided according to the invention, for imparting to the pistons a uniform acceleration and retardation, permits of obtaining a.' perfect uniformity. of output.
Pumps of this type can be equipped with any number of pistons, except that atleast three pistons must be provided. The construction of these pumps is, however, only feasible, when for the return movementof the pistons, i. e. for effecting the suction stroke thereof, a traverse cam member having a lateral guide track with axially projecting cam portions is provided.
In realizing the above-mentioned advantages the following measures have already been proposed together with applying cam disks with circumferential guide tracks.
(1) Uniform acceleration-uniform speeduniform deceleration, thus without an intervening standstill of the pistons at the dead centers.
Spinning pumps that were compelled to operate on this principleof movement were unt for use alone .for this reason that the pistons are kept moving up to the dead center similarly as explained above in connection with the ordinary versed sine pumps.
(2) Speed -uniform acceleration-uniform speed-uniform deceleration-speed Il.
In this case admittedly the pistons come at rest at the dead centers, but nevertheless such pumps are unfit for use as spinning pumps, as for effecting the uniform speed, on the respective traverse cam a relatively long stretch of constant inclination must beprovided. On this stretch the slide block contacts with the cam always at the same point of the block in consequence of which a flattened portion will be formed at this point,
due to wear, and thus considerable irregularities in the output ensue during changing over from the uniform acceleration to the uniform speed. The surface curvature to be adopted for the slide blocks depends in a high degree on the shape of the curve and must remain unaltered.
According to this invention the inclination of the traverse cam changes continually, so that.
the point of contact travels about the surface of the slide block without intermission. Experience has shown that here the curvature of the slide blocks remains practically unaltered even if the general wear is considerable.
In the pumps, according to the present invention, it is necessary that at least at the end of the suction stroke the pistons are guided between the two traverse cam members without any axial play, so that the pistons are compelled to perform the full traverse without any deviations.
, ner that these spring means are adapted to ensure a tight bearing engagement between the pistons and the pressure cam member at the end of the suction stroke, whereby the major portion of the suction stroke is positively controlled. The actuating sliding members for the control of the pistons, must be jammed, together with the pistons and the slide blocks thereof, in between the two cam members without allowing any play, at least at the end of the suction stroke.
In the pump according to the present invention the rotor may consist of one part only actuated by means of a shaft and carrying the pistons and their actuating sliding means or it mayconsist of two parts revolving together in the casing, one of which-parts is a rotatable guide member actuated by means of a shaft and containing the actuating sliding means of the pistons and the other part being a rotor-shaped piston carrier centered on the shaft and actuated by an intervening pin, both parts taken together beinghereinafter referred to as rotor.
In spinning pumps all the transverse forces acting on the pistons and favoring wear of the cylinders should be completely eliminated. 'I'he conversion of a rotary motion into a rectilinear sliding motion is practically impossible without producing tranverse forces directed vertically to the sliding motion. According to the invention the component forces due to the inclination of the cam track are taken up by sliding means guided in the rotor and which arel independent of the pistons, the piston heads being only jammed in between these slidingl means and having lateral play between them, whereby transverse pressure on the pistons and thus the wear of the latter in the cylinders is prevented.

means of shaft 4 and a rotor-shaped piston carrier I which is centered on the shaft and actuated by an intervening pin 6.
In cylindrical working bores of the piston carrier ,'I, which bores extend parallel to the axis of rotation of the latter, pistons 8,-in thepresent case ive in number, are `displaceably arranged which are provided with cylindrical heads 8a for engagement with actuating members 9 guided in the rotatable guide member 5. Slide blocks 29 are displaceably guided. in the bored actuating members 9. The rear cover 2 of the casing is provided witha traverse cam member 28 having a lateral annular guide' track with axially projecting cam portions for the presure stroke such as shown` in Figs. 5 and 5a, the annular guide track being in sliding engagement by aline bearing contact with the slide block members 29 as shown in Figs. 7 and 7a in two views taken at right angles to each other. Between the regulating screws II and the pins I 8 compression springs 33 are inverted for compensating a slight amount of unavoidable play arising between the cam members and the slide blocks at the end of the suction stroke.
The return movement, viz. the suction strokeV of the pistons is eiected by anannular cam memi ber I3 having a lateral traversing guide track with axially projecting cam portions (Figs. 6 and 6a) the throw of which is equal to` that of the' traverse cam member 28 and which is secured on the casing I against distortion by pins I4.
On this suction cam member the ends of pegs i I5 are sliding which are displaceably arrangedin grooves'of the rotatable guide member 5 for driving the actuating members 9, the latter beingprovided with noses I6 which project into holes of the sliding pegs I5. Consequently, the suction cam member I3 urges the pistons during the suction strokeonto the slide block members 29, by meansof the displaceable pegs I5 and the actuating members 9, whereby the slide block members 29. in turn are urged against the pressure cam member 28. By these means axial play between the pistons and the-pressure cam-*members is avoided. The suction cam vmember I3 is adaptedto be axially adjusted relatively to the pressureV cam member 28 by meansvof lregulating screws I'I and pins I8, in order to compensate for wear. i
The component forces due to the inclination of the cam track are taken up by the sliding pegs I5 and the actuating members 9 which are guided in the rotatable member 5 .and which are independent of the pistons, thepiston heads being freely held in between the actuating members 9 and the slide block members 29 and having lateral play between them, whereby transverse pressure on the pistons and thus the wear of the latter in the cylinders is prevented.
The shaft 4 is provided with a spherical enlargement 20 which is urged on the piston carrier 'I by means of a spring I9, the piston carrier in turn being pressed on the port face of the cover 3. `whereas the other end of the spring I9 abuts against the cover 2 by means of a spring plate forming a guide and an intervening thrust ball. The port face of the cover 3 comprises a suction control passage 2| and a pressure control passage 22, these control pasasges being adapted to alternately communicate with the individual working bores of the piston carrier duringthe rotation of the same. The piston carrier I is thus adapted to operate at `the same time in the manner of a slide valve.
The working liquid enters the pump at 2'I and ows through the pasasges 23 and 24 into the suction control passage Vand from thence 'into the i working bores of the pistons. It is then pressed into the pressure control passage, by action of the pistons, to leave the pump at 21 via the passages 25 and 26.
`In the constructional form as per the Figs. 8 and 9, the actuation of the pistons is eiected by means of slide block members 3II and sliding pegs 3| which are guided in the rotor 31, the rotatable guide member 5, as used in the previous constructional form, thus being dispensed with and the rotor consisting of one pegs 3| part only. The sliding areprovided with noses 32 for directly pressing the heads of the pistons on the slide block members which in turn are urged on the pressure cam member 28. In this constructional form of the invention the actuating members 9 of Fig. 1 are dispensed with and the piston heads are freely held in between the noses 32 of the sliding pegs 3I and the sliding `block members 30 which are guided in the rotor 31 and take up the component forces due to the inclination of the cam track. Otherwise the construction `and operation of this `pump are similar as shown and explained in connection with the previous constructional form of the invention. v
In the Figs. 3, and 4, the spare area of port face, i. e. the distance between the working bore of the pistons and the ends of the adjacent control passages, in the central position of the bore between these passages, is indicated by the angles az and a1 respectively. With a pump comprising a traverse disc having a plane end face obliquely disposed toits axis that imparts to the pistons a versed sine movement, this spare area must be i reduced toa minimum, in order to avoid fluctuations in the output. 'Ihis is represented by the angle aiinvFig. 4.
When on the other hand the traverse cam member is designed to impart tothe pistons a uniformly accelerated and retarded motion,` so
that the curve illustrating the movements of the piston assumes a parabolic shape, the allowable spare area is far greater, viz. 18 for a pump with ve pistons, so that much better obturation is obtained.` With such a design for the traverse cam member having a lateral annular guide track with axially projecting cam portions, a positively guided piston movement in both directions is, however, only feasible, when also for thereturn movement oi the pistons a traverse cam member having a lateral annular guide track with axially proand 6a is used.
If, in a known manner, the 'return movement of thepistons is effected with the aid of springs, i. e. resiliently, the same eiect were obtained, less the disadvantages offered by springs, that is a complete uniformity of output. This is due to the fact that on the one hand the working cycle of the pistons as such is perfectly uniform, as will be seen in the diagram shown in Fig. 10, in which C represents the speed, T the time, and s the stroke of the pistons, and on the other hand that vjecting cam portionsfas shown4 in the Figs. 6
after-'a certain time from the beginning of thisr It has been assumed for all the constructional forms of the invention that the suction cam member is adjustable relatively 'to the pressure cam membenvz. that the pressure cam member is fixed to the casing so as to be the determining factor for the piston movement.r i
Alternately, the suction cam member may be fixed if desired and the pressure cam member adjustably arranged instead, it being only necessary that one of the two cam members is xed to the casing as a base for determining the piston move, ment.
Furthermore, the control passages for the working fluid may, in a known manner, be provided on the inner circumference of the casing instead of lon the inner sides of the covers thereof.
I do not limit myself to the particular size shape,
number or arrangement of parts as shown and described, all of which may be varied without going beyond the scope of my invention as shown.
