466,047, now Patent No. 2,491,100, dated December 13, 1949.
Divided and this application September 27, 1947, Serial No. 776,455
7 Claims.
This invention relates to pump means and more particularly to a rotary fluid pressure pump adapted for supercharging purposes.
This application is a division of my co-pending application Serial No. 466,047, led November 18, 1942, for Pump (now Patent No. 2,491,100, dated December 13, 1949).
One object of the present invention is to pro vide a rotary pump of novel construction whereby continuous, eiicient and safe operation of the same is assured.
Another object of the invention is to provide a rotary pump having novel means for constantly supplying lubricant to the movable parts thereof.
The above and further objects and novel fea tures of the invention will more fully appear from the following detailed description w en the same is read in connection with the accompanying drawings. It is to be expressly understood, however, that the drawings are for the purpose of illustration only and are not intended as a denition of the limits of the invention, reference for this latter purpose being primarily had to the appended claims.
In the drawings, wherein like reference characters refer to like parts throughout the several views,
Fig. 1 is a sectional view of one form of pump apparatus embodying the present invention, the section being taken substantially along a plane co-incident with the axis of rotation of the drive means for the` apparatus;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken substantially along line 2--2 of Fig. 1; and,
Fig. 3 is a sectional View taken substantially along line 3 3 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings, there is shown an embodiment of the invention adapted for use, for example, as the supercharging means for the distributor of the ignition system of an internal combustion engine. As shown, the novel pump apparatus comprises an outer or main housing consistingl of two sections It and ii separated along a transverse plane and connected together by suitable means, such as screws or bolts l2. Sections lll and Ii are preferably provided with a plurality of holes I 3 (Fig. 3) adapted for receiving bolts or other suitable holding means whereby said housing may be operatively mounted in another housing to be supercharged or connected to an engine casing within said supercharged housing.
Within housing I0, I I there is mounted a pump casing comprising end plates l l and a cylindrical 'Wall member I5, which parts are held in Operative axial position relative to each other by sections Ili and I I. One or more holding members, such as pins IS (Fig, l), may be provided in each housing section for cooperation with said end plates to prevent angular movement of the latter relative to said housing, and suitable means, such as pins (not shown), may be employed to hold the parts of casing I4, I5 in xed angular relation to eachv other. Eccentrically mounted relative to said casing is a hollow rotor shaft I7 which has the ends thereof suitably journaled in bearings I 8 preferably provided in each 01 sections I0, Il, Said bearings serving also to axially position said shaft.
Concentrically mounted on rotor shaft I1 in casing I4, I5 so as to be eccentric to the latter is a pump rotor I 9 which is secured, for example, by a key 20- (Fig. 3) to said rotor shaft for rotation therewith. Key 20 is preferably formed from a readily shearable material so that if said rotor seizes or becomes otherwise locked against movement during operation, the key will be first to fail and will thereby protect the pump lstructure and the drive means connected thereto against damage and also permit continued operation of the other parts. A plurality of radial slots 2| are provided in said rotor and each of said slots is adapted to slidably receive a vane or blade 22 so that during operation of said rotor, said vanes are centrifugally actuated into operative engagement with the inner wall of casing member l5. Said vanes are preferably formed from molded phenolic material. Each pair of said vanes cooperates with the inner walls of casing I4, i 5 to form a peripheral pressure chamber therein, the latter having a volume which varies from a minimumto a maximum during each revolution of the rotor.V
Suitable means are provided in the illustrated embodiment to admit air to each `oi the pressure chambers as the latter attain a maximum volume and to discharge air from each of said chambers as the latter approach a minimum volume. As shown, the air admission means comprises a suitable passageway in housing Il), II, which connects with an inlet port 23 in casing Id, I5, said port being provided in wall member i5 and connecting with atransverse groove 24 in the inner surface of said member. Said groove subtends a substantial arc `in the direction of travel of the vanes and is adapted to connect said port with each` pressure chamber from the time shortly aftervair is discharged from said chamber until the time the chamber assumes its maximum volume. The inlet passageway in tion of the limits of the invention, reference is had primarily to the appended claims.
