Definitions

  • the present invention has, for one of its principal ob ects, a positive displacement pump advantageously incorporatmg a piston adapted to both reciprocateand oscillate relative to the cylinder and, at the same time, a
  • a pump incorporating the teachings of the present invention employs a ducted piston which reciprocates and oscillates synchronously in a bi-ported cylinder.
  • the piston duct is so arranged as to connect the ports alternately with the pumping chamber. Under such circumstances, one port will communicate with the pumping chamber on the down stroke of the piston whereas the other port will be exposed to the chamber on the piston upstroke.
  • this invention contemplates at least three cylinder-piston arrangements for purposes of covering a majority of modern day fluid handling requirements. These arrangements are, respectively, termed monoplex, double monoplex and duplex. Each arrangement lends itself advantageously to a scavenger duct means whereby piston and gland bypass fluids can be returned at negative pressure to the suction side of the pump system.
  • a piston cylinder assembly is coupled with the output of a drive motor, with the axis of the motor output shaft being substantially normal to that of the piston and cylinder.
  • a variable speed motor can be employed.
  • the piston includes, at its outer end, a laterally projecting pin.
  • a crank is interposed between the pin and motor output shaft to turn the pin upon rotation of the shaft and thereby induce longitudinal reciprocation of the piston as well as rotational oscillation thereof relative to the cylinder.
  • the length of crank arm is adjustable for purposes of varying flow rates.
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of the motor output shaft laterally extending piston pin with interposed crank for transferring rotational energy from the motor output shaft to the pin;
  • FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross sectional view taken along the-line 4-4'of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 5 is an elevational view similar to FIG. 1 showing another embodiment of positive displacement piston pumping system wherein the crank is of fixed proportions thereby maintaining a constant flow rate;
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view thereof.
  • a positive displacement piston pump 30 is shown coupled with the output of a drive motor 32, both of which may be suitably mounted or suspended to suit the particular application.
  • the motor 32 may be secured by means of the anchoring bolts 34 and 36 suitably secured as by weld-ing to the motor housing.
  • the pump 30 is suitably suspended or otherwise mounted on the housing of the motor 32 by means of a bracket extension 38 formed as an integral part of the pump cylinder.
  • This bracket extension includes a transversely extending substantially flat plate 40 through which a suitable number of screws or threaded bolts 42 may extend to complete the coupling of the pump 30 to the motor 32.
  • a reduction gear train 44 which operates to reduce motor output to the selected value.
  • the pump cylinder 46 suitably accommodates the piston 48 adapted to be longitudinally reciprocal and rotatably oscillational relative thereto.
  • the ex terior end of the piston 48 is conveniently adapted to be coupled with the gear down rotational output of the motor 32 by means of the crank 50 in a manner to be described in detail shortly.
  • the inner end of the piston 48 is provided with a cutout or recessed portion 52 functioning as a duct which, together with the cylinder vided with ports 56 and 58 adapted to perform respectfully as inlet and outlet ports and communicate with the pump chamber 54.
  • Tubing may be suitably coupled with these ports as part of the circular system for fluid to be pumped.
  • the forinterior at the head of the piston cooperates in forming the cylinder pumpingchamber 54.
  • the cylinder is proward end of the piston 48 is adapted to close off or seal each port depending upon the extent of relative rotation of oscillation of the piston in the cylinder.
  • the outer end of the piston 48 has secured thereto a laterally projecting roll pin 57.
  • the free end of this pin cooperates with the crank 50 in transforming rotational movement to both reciprocal and oscillating movement of the piston 48.
  • the crank 50 cooperates to transform this energy and in doing so is adjustably mounted on the motor output shaft 55 for purposes of adjusting the effective crank arm length.
  • the crank 50 includes an eccentric drive 59 rotatably mounted on the output shaft 55 and adapted to be secured in place by means of the set screw 60.
  • the pin 57 bears against the eccentric drive 59. Therefore, rotation or turning of the drive 59 on the output shaft 55 will serve to increase or decrease the distance of the pin 57 to the axis of rotation of the shaft 55.
  • a retaining hook 61 is adapted to be associated with the pin.
  • This hook 61 is either adjustably mounted on a drive pin 62 in order to manually shift the hook into engagement with the pin 57 or, on the other hand, the drive pin 62 may be adjustable with respect to the drive shaft 55 in a radial direction and when the desired adjustment has been effected, it will be maintained in place by the suitably located screw.
  • the stages of turning of the pin 50 with the shaft 55 is shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3. This movement of the pin 57 will induce longitudinal reciprocation to the piston 48. At the same time, the piston 48 will oscillate or rock to thereby expose the duct 52 to one port of the cylinder 46 to another.
  • the pin disposed relative to the output shaft 55 as depicted by solid lines in FIG.
  • the piston 48 will be at the end of its retraction stroke with pump fluid present in the pumping chamber 54.
  • the pin 57 will also rotate counterclockwise to expose the duct 52 to the outlet port 58 to thereby pump fluid from the chamber 54 out through the duct 52 and port 58.
  • the pin 57 reaches the position illustrated by dotted lines in FIG. 3, the end of the pumping or forward stroke of the piston 48 has been reached and the retraction stroke commences.
  • the duct 52 With further rotation of the pin 57, the duct 52 will be in communication with the inlet port 56 to withdraw the liquid through the duct 52 into the pumping chamber 54. This cycle of operation is continued in fulfilling the desired performance of the pump of this invention (see numerals IIV of FIGS. 2 and 3).
  • a scavenger duct means which is generally designated by numeral 66.
  • a slot 68 is provided in the walls of the cylinder 4-6 at the suction side of the pump and connects the inlet port 56 with the rear terminal end of the cylinder defined by a counter bore 70.
  • a lip seal in the form of a relatively thin washer made of resilient material such as a filled Teflon is located at the rear end of the cylinder 46 and is provided with a central opening 74 which is smaller than the diameter of the piston such that u on thrusting the piston through the washer at assembly causes the hole to be enlarged through deformation in the direction of the counter bore.
  • a seal nut 76 not only serves to maintain the washer associated with the rear end of the cylinder but also restricts reversal of the deformation.
  • the sealing lip acts as a sequeegee to effectively wipe the piston dry on extraction from the cylinder when pasing through its retraction stroke.
  • any fluids which migrate during the pressure stroke towards the atmosphere in the pistoncylinder clearance gap, arrive at the counter bore. There they are wiped from the piston by the lip seal and are returned through the scavenger duct 68 to the suction side of the system.
  • a felt oiler 158 may be interposed between the ball 154 and inner surfaces of the crank 150.
  • a mere O-ring 66 may be interposed between the piston 48 and cylinder 46 and be suitably disposed in an accommodating recess in the latter.
  • the unit illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6 is essentially the same as that of FIGS. 1 to 4. Accordingly, like parts will be similarly numbered with accompanying primes.
  • the component parts contributing to the pump units can be manufactured from metals, plastics or cermets as well as other materials. Basic simplicity of parts is also provided without limiting their versatility and application. These pumps can be employed for metering small or large flows in virtually any head to suction relationship. Without check valves danger of clog ing, cavitation and failure is avoided providing many years of troublefree service.
