Application December 23, 1946, Serial meanness The principal object 'of any invention is to provide in a hydraulic machine, a rotary pump of variable capacity while maintaining a constant speed and functioning as .a motor at will;
- It is therefore an object of my invention to provide a'hydraulic rotary pump functioning by direct means forvaryingv thevoiumetric displacement of the pump during operation, and thereby varythe delivery of fluids.
A further object isthelprovi'sion of a hydraulic rotary pump-possessing structural characteristics whereby the direction "of flow can be reversed during operation of the pump, and this without sever-sing its, rotation, and while maintaining its constant speed;-
A further object of the herein invention is the provision of a hydraulic rotary pump for forcibly ea'eoting a smooth continuous flow of fluid in large quantities at-high speed, and with a minimum of power loss. In this respect, I believe my. invention to be of greater capacity for its size than any existing type of variable displacement pu p;
. .A further object of the herein invention is the provision of .a hydraulic rotary pump which is free from cavitation at high speeds because oen trifugal force aids the intake of fluid rather than opposingift, due to the central admission of fluid;
. A still further object of the herein invention 7 theprovision of a hydraulic rotary pump adaptable for use in a variable speed transmission whereinany ratio may be chosen between neutrail. and high. speed; v
And a still further ohject of the herein inventi'on "is "the provision of ahydraulic rotary pump whereby the output can be controlled to meet the requirements of a hydraulicsystem without vsailojetting the system to the conventional power loss due tony-pass, V

Referring thereto, a-housing H3 is provided with a boss H having a tapered bore 12..
A cylindrical stator I3 is provided with a tapered tubular-ex n i n M which is fitted into the bore 42 from the inside of the housing ii],
A nut I4 threaded upon the extension Made jacent the end of the boss ll causes theextension 14 to be drawn the bore l2 so that the stator 13 is against rotation.
The extension: .44 provided with a bore which is divided into two passageways i5 and i5" by a vertical partition Iii which extends into the in.- terior. oi'the stator 13 and divides the latter into two chambers l1 and I8 respectively.
The stator 13 is open at its periphery except at the twopointswhere the partition it becomes part of the p ri heryvA rotor l9 an inner cylindrical shell 20 and an outer oylmdrieal shell 2!. The former is provided witha plurality of ports 22 through its periphery whereby communication is provided be w en the chambers l1 and It and the interior of the 21,
The periphery of the shell 210 is provided with a plurality of cavities wherein are retained ribs 24 of circular cross section stormed on the inner ends'o-f a-pluralityofradial vanes 2-5 where: by said vanes are monntedso as to oscillate when the shell 2| is adjusted.
The shell 2; embodies apair of end plates "26 and .2 l abutting the ends of 2 plurality .of arched blocks-8 which areesuppp ited day pins 23 through said end iolates and :said-lolooks. The latter are concave at -their edges so as to snugly fit against a'plurality otpinstil-which ionrnaled at their ends [in the plates and 2:1.
:The blocks 218 and pins 30 are positioned .a circle b0 15 9 sthfi .neriphery' of the 511611 2 I, lihepinsgifl are slotted 3:11-39 to receive thevanes-2-5 which slide through the pins 3%.
ill-he shell-.20 .iSiOI'fllfidfifytWO parts 31 and 2 for assembly purposes. filihey may be secured to one another as shy-1a plurality of pins :33, one only being shown in Fig. 4.
The .shell 1-20 is supportedifor rotation about its axis-upon .ballzbearings 34 which are supported upon the stator i=3.
The shell .24 is supported for rotation about its axis my "ball ibeanings 35- :which are :in turn u po is h i o slates a1 secured ,as. by
bolts to :four .slidableblocks 3 9. 'Ehexbloeks tare 1on8. ef itheir :sides so :as to ifit into concave sides of four blocks 40 having lugs formed thereon designed to fit into grooves 4| formed into the walls of the housing It.
A pair of vertical control rods 42 are secured to the upper pair of the blocks 39 as by nuts 43.
The plates 3'! are supported for vertical movement by the control rods 42, the latter being adaptable for either up or down movement for the operation of the machine. 1
The shell 20 is'fixedcoaxially with the stator I3 by the bearings 34, but the axis of the shell 2| is susceptive to a vertical movement eccentric to the axis of the shell 20,'while both shells are revolving at the same R. P. M. This is provided for by means of a double universal joint 43' comprising in part a ring 44, a short tube 45 and a swivel block 45. The latter is pivotally mounted in a slot 47 through an axially movable shaft 48 by means of a bolt 49 having its ends journaled through the shaft 48.
The block 46 is provided on its endswith a pair of trunnions 5|) pivotally attached-t one end of the tube 45 by bearing caps The other end of said tube is provided with a pair of trunnions 52 pivotally attached to the ring 44 by bearing caps 53. 1 I
The ring 44 is provided with a pair of trunnions 54 pivotally attached to a hub 55 of one of the plates 21 by bearing caps 56. r
The inner end of the shaft 48 is keyed or splined to a hub 51 of the shell to permit of axial motion of said shaft as the offset of the shell 2| is varied to either increase or decrease the fluid output, and the outer end of said shaft is journaled in ball bearings 58 provided in a conical shaped boss 59 of a covert!) for the housing Ill.
The pump functions when the axis of the shell 2| is moved vertically eccentric to the axis of the shell 20, output increasing as the offset increases, the speed of rotation remaining constant.
In Fig. 7 the control rods 42 have lowered the plates 31 and the thereby supported ball bearings supporting the shell 2| so that the axis of the shell 2| is below the axis of the shell 20. As the shells 2i] and 2| are rotated together in a clockwise direction at the same R. P. M the area between the vanes 25 increases on the right hand side of the partition l6 and creates a suction which draws fluid through the passageway l5, the chamber H, and the ports 22 into the area between the vanes 25.
Fluid is carried between the vanes 25 from the right hand side of the partition I6 around clockwise to the left hand side of the partition l6 where the area between the vanes 25 is progressively decreased and thereby forcing the fluid back through the ports 22 into the chamber 8 and out therefrom through the passageway |5'.
When the control rods 42 are adjusted to lift the shell 2! so that the axis of said shell is above the axis of the shell 20 and the clockwise direction of rotation is maintained, the direction of fluid flow will be reversed and fluid will be drawn into the chamber I8 through the passageway l5 and expelled out of the chamber I! through the passageway |5.
Due to small deflections under various operating conditions the shell 2| must be free to align itself about the shell 20 and the stator l3. Said alignment is provided for by the particular mounting of the plates 31 upon the blocks 39 and 4B. This mounting permits a slight rotation of the plates as a unit about the vertical axis of the pump, also about the horizontal axis of the pump perpendicular to the drive shaft 48 and a slight movement axially of said shaft while an increased movement vertically is accomplished by means of the control rods 42.
The double universal joint permits vertical movement of the outer rotor 2| due to the axial sliding movement of the shaft 48 as take place when the inner end of the universal joint 43 moves upwardly and the out end of said universal joint moves to the left as will be" apparent with reference to Fig. 4.
My invention, used in conjunction with another unit (either constant or variable displacement pump) to convert oil pressure back into usable motion, could be used as a variable speed transmission readily adaptable to automobiles, trucks, tractors, etc, It could also be used singly in hydraulic systems such as for ships steering gear, aircraft hydraulics, and numerous other fields where a machine of its characteristics would appropriately function.
Used as a variable speed transmission its .ad-' vantage over geared transmission is that any ratio may be chosen between 'zero and its maximum, whereas geared transmissions operate at fixed ratios and require clutches to disconnect the power when a shift is made from one gear to another.
When used in hydraulic systems it requires no by-pass to take care of excessive discharge because the output can be controlled to the requirements. Consequently there is no power loss due to by-passed fluid. Moreover, due to the central admission of the oil, my invention is not subject to cavitation at high speeds because centrifugal force aids the intake of oil rather than to oppose it. a
The invention may readily be produced from materials the open market affords and at no unreasonable cost.
I am aware that slight structural changes may from time to time suggest themselves, but within the scope of the herein disclosure. Hence, I do not limit my invention to the exact arrangement and component parts herein described, but what I do claim is:
