The bore 44 further comprises an enlarged diameter portion 52, a discharge valve seat 54, a chamber or recess 56, and an outlet valve cavity 62.
- the valve body 38 has a suction annulus 57 in the outer periphery and inlet passages 58 providing communication between the suction annulus 57 and the bore 44. O-ring annuli 60 are provided in the cylindrical periphery and the discharge face 42 of the cylindrical valve body.

- face 84 of the stuffing box serves as a spring abutment and inlet valve stop.
- the piston 102 is driven into the compression chamber 98 guided by stuffing box sleeve 94. Compression of the fluid impels inlet valve 64 axially.
- the cylindrical portion 66 is guided by the bore 44- of cylinder valve body 38.
- the conical portion 70 mates with conical valve seat 48, closing the inlet passages 58.
- the intake fluid may flow around annular recess 57 in the cylinder valve body 38 and be diverted to another pump in-line and undergoing suction stroke.
- O-rings effectively seal the fluid from leakage at the interfaces of the various components, and packing 92 prevents leakage of the fluid from the compression chamber 98 past the piston.
- a gland ring and studs 132 compressively mate the stuffing box, the cylinder head, and the cylinder valve body. Because the studs 132 are constantly in tension, fatigue failure due to cyclical reversal of stress is avoided, and therefor smaller diameter studs may be used than with conventional pumps.
- inlet fluid pressure upon inlet valve 64 is distributed evenly around the conical portion 70 because second annular recess 72 and conjoining valve seat annulus 50 provide communication between inlet passages 58. This prevents mis-alignment and uneven wear of the inlet valve.
- the stuffing box and piston For servicing the stuffing box and piston may be removed as a unit and worked on at a bench. Similarly the valves and valve body may be taken out as a unit to be worked upon separately. Leaving the cylinder head in place thereby avoids complicated disconnecting of manifolds.
- the studs join the stuffing box to a working barrel which contains the compression chamber.
- the force transmitted through the box to the gland and studs fluctuates as the pressure in accordance with the chambers fluctuates.
- the force transmitted to the gland 130 through the stuffing box 80 is the relatively constant force of the discharge fluid working to separate valve body block 38 from cylinder head 14. This forceplaces studs 132 in fairly constant tension, reducing the cyclical reversals that cause fatigue failure and thereby permitting the use of smaller diameter studs.
- the cylinder head plug 138 may be removed providing ready access to the discharge valve and valve plug assembly.
- the operation of this modification differs in the fluid flow within the valve body because of the modified inlet valve and discharge passage structure.
- On the'intake stroke of the piston the inlet valve is opened by the pressure differential between the inlet manifold 24 and compression chamber 98.
- the cylindrical portion of the valve 66 guides its axial movement in the enlarged diameter 62 of the-valve body.
- Bearing face 100 in the stuffing box which serves as an abutment surface for the inlet valve spring also serves as a valve stop in this modification.
- inlet fluid flows through inlet passages 58 partially diverting around inlet valve seat 77 to the inlet valve bore 74 and to valve body bore 44, and partially through annular recess 56 in the valve body through inlet valve ports 76 to the compression chamber 98.
- inlet valve is axially moved to close upon the flat valve seat 47 in the valve body.
- the valve seat recess 49 and the recess 56 prevent binding of the valve in its closed position.
- the compressed fluid is forced through bore 44, opening discharge valve 112, and flows through discharge passages 59 to the discharge manifold 32.
- a reciprocating pump comprising 1. a cylinder head having a. first, second, and third faces: b. a plurality of cylindrical chambers with l. a larger diameter portion communicating with and axially normal to the first face, and 2. a smaller diameter portion coaxial with the larger diameter portion; c. an inlet manifold serially connecting the larger diameter portions of the chambers; and d. a discharge manifold providing communication between the smaller diameter portions; and for each said chamber 2. a cylindrical valve body coaxially positioned in the chamber having a. an inlet face and a discharge face; b.

MULTI-PLUNGER RECIPROCATING PUMP DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to reciprocating pumps. More particularly the invention relates to a multi-plunger inline reciprocating pump which provides economy in manufacture and servicing by internal manifolding and valving arrangement within a cylinder head permitting removal of the suction: and exhaust valves as units from selected pumps, and which also includes valve bodies with bias porting providing increased thickness of walls separating high and low pressure areas, andstuds in constant tension minimizing stress reversal to reduce this cause of fatigue failure.
Among the disadvantages. of high pressure pumps subject to the continuous pulsation and shock inherent in reciprocating pumps is the external manifolding which results in greater assembly cost and more complicated disassembly to the service a single pump unit. In these pumps the inlet ports have generally been holes parallel to discharge ports-and subject to failure at greatpressure differentials; The studs that'hold these assemblies together have been subjectedto cyclical stresses with each stroke of the piston,.a condition which results in premature failure due to fatigue.
These problems have been resolved in my invention through the use of a cylinder head with internal manifolding and valving arrangement, bias porting of the valve bodies, and an arrangement of the stuffing-box, valve bodies and cylinder head which maintainsthe studs under a relatively constantptension governed by the outlet pressure of the pump.
It is theobject of this invention toprovide a multiplunger in-line reciprocating pump with a novel arrangement-that affords economy in manufacture and servicing.
Another object is-to increase the thickness of the walls separating high and low pressure areas in the valve body.

FIG. 7 is a plan cross-section of the pump in FIG. 5 taken along line 77 showing the piston and valving arrangement;
' FIG. 8 is an enlarged fragmentary view'of the valves in FIG. 7; and j v FIG. 9 is a partial section of a pressure unloader.
In the drawings similar reference characters refer to corresponding parts in the several views. Referring to FIG. 1 a multi-plunger reciprocating pump 10 is seen to comprise a drive unit 12 and a cylinder head 14.
FIG. 2 shows that the cylinder head 14 has a plurality of chambers 16, each opening through a common first face 18 of the head 14 and having a large diameter portion 20 and a smaller diameter portion 22. An inlet manifold 24 communicates with the larger diameter portions 20 and terminates in inlet ports 26 at second face 28 and third face 30 of the cylinder head. A discharge manifold 32 similarly communicates with the smaller diameter portions 22 of the chambers 16 and terminates in outlet ports 34 in faces 28 and 30. The manifolds 24, 32 are each generally sealed at one of the faces 28,-30 by an inletport plug 27 and an outlet port plug 36.
FIG. 3 is an elevational cross-section showing the cy- Iindrical valve body 38 positioned in one of the cham- Another object is to minimize stressreversal in the studs that hold thestuffing box, valve body and cylinder head together.
Still another object is to. provide the inlet valve with an integral guide and/or with bias seating to improve sealing.
A further object is to arrange inlet and discharge valves entirely within the valve body to permit servicing them as a subassembly. Another object is to arrange the stuffing box and plunger in a subassembly for convenience in removal and servicing. Yet another object is to provide an unloading means to automatically reduce the pressure within the pump when it is shut off.
A better understanding of the invention will be had by referring to the following description and drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a vertical in-line pump with three pistons;
FIG. 2 is an elevational cross-section of the cylinder head in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an elevational cross-section of the pump of FIG. 1 taken along line 3-3 showing thepiston and valving arrangement;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the valves in FIG. 3;
FIG. 5 is a plan view of a horizontal in-line three pistons;
pump with bers 16 of the cylinder head 14. The valve body 38 has an inlet face 40 and a discharge face 42 which bears against a step in the cylinder head. As shown in FIG. 5, the valve body 38 has a stepped bore 44, which includes a bore step 46, a conical valve seat 48, and a valve seat annulus 50. The bore 44 further comprises an enlarged diameter portion 52, a discharge valve seat 54, a chamber or recess 56, and an outlet valve cavity 62. The valve body 38 has a suction annulus 57 in the outer periphery and inlet passages 58 providing communication between the suction annulus 57 and the bore 44. O-ring annuli 60 are provided in the cylindrical periphery and the discharge face 42 of the cylindrical valve body. A funnel-shaped inlet valve 64 is slidably located at the inlet end of the valve body bore 44. It comprises a cylindrical portion 66 having a first annular recess 68, and a conical portion 70having a second annular recess 72. An inlet valve bore 74 communicates with the first annular recess through ports 76, and the wide end of the conical portion isprovided with inlet valve slots 78. When the valve is in the closed position, the second annular recess 72 mates with the valve seat annulus 50 of the valve body.
A stuffing box 80, having a step bore 82, mates along a first face 84 with the valve body inlet face 40. At the first face the bore hasan enlarged diameter defining a chamber and step for a valve stop 104. A second face 88 of the stuffing box has an annular projection 90 which locates gland ring 130. Within the stuffing box bore 82 are packing 92 and a sleeve 94. The sleeve bore 96 partially defines a cylinder or compression chamber 98. An end face of the sleeve 100 provides a axial movement of the inlet valve 64 during the suction stroke of the piston.
A discharge valve 112 rests in the closed position on the valve seat 54, and is guided by discharge valve plug 114. The plug has a stepped bore 116 which includes discharge valve retainer cup 118 at one end and a cavity for the discharge valve spring 120 at the other end. The plug is slidably positioned in the discharge valve spring retainer 122 and is coaxial with it and all the cylindrical elements described hereto.
The discharge valve spring retainer 122 has a threaded diameter 124 which engages the outlet valve cavity of the valve body 62. A sealing flange 126 partially defines an O-ring recess with the annulus 60 in the valve body discharge face 42. Studs 132 threadedly engage cylinder head 14 and gland ring 130 thereby compressively binding the gland ring, stuffing box, valve body and cylinder head.
An unloader system may be provided as shown in FIG. 9 comprising an unloader rod 140, actuated by a solenoid to control diaphragm cylinder 142 to move axially through an unloader port 144 in the cylinder head, the suction annulus 57, and one of the inlet passages 58 to valve seat annulus 50. A seal 146 in the unloader port 144 prevents leakage to the atmosphere.
In the horizontal modification shown in FIGS. through 8, the cylinder head chambers 16 also communicate with a fourth face 31 of the cylinder head as shown in FIG. 6. This opening is sealed with a cylinder head plug 138 which has an O-ring annulus in the surface that interfaces with the fourth face of the cylinder head. Instead of a funnel configuration, the cylindrical valve body has a flat inlet valve seat 47 and a valve seat recess 49 which provides clearance and reduces the amount of lapping that is required. It is further provided with discharge passages 59 which are biased to increase material thickness in the guide portion and facilitate machining. The discharge valve spring retainers described in the vertical pump is eliminated. The inlet valve is cylindrical, its body serving as a guide, and has a flat seal 77. As the valve stop has been eliminated, face 84 of the stuffing box serves as a spring abutment and inlet valve stop.
OPERATION OF THE INVENTION In the operation of the pump of FIGS. 1 through 4, when the driving means retracts piston 102 in the stuffing box 80, the volumetric increase of compression chamber 98, decreases the pressure therein sufficiently to overcome the force of the inlet valve spring 110, so that inlet valve 64 moves axially toward the piston until it bears against step face 108 of valve stop 104. Fluid is drawn into the system through inlet 'port 26, inlet manifold 24, and the annular chamber defined by the annular recess 57 in cylinder valve body 38. From there the fluid moves through inlet passages 58 around the conical surface 70 of the inlet valve 64. Part of the fluid flows towards the second annular recess 52in the valve through the inlet valve ports 76 to fill the inlet valve bore 74, while a greater volume is diverted around the conical portion 70 through the slots 78 in the end face of the inlet valve and fills the compression chamber 98. As the inlet pressure is lower than the pressure in the discharge manifold 32, discharge valve 112 is urged to its closed position against discharge valve seat 54 by the greater fluid pressure in the discharge manifold and by the discharge valve spring. The spring urges the discharge valve plug 114 axially toward the piston 102 within the stepped bore 128 of the discharge valve spring retainer 122. As the discharge valve 112 is carried in the discharge valve retainer cup 118 of the discharge valve plug 114, proper seating of the valve on discharge valve seat 54 is assured.
During the discharge stroke the piston 102 is driven into the compression chamber 98 guided by stuffing box sleeve 94. Compression of the fluid impels inlet valve 64 axially. The cylindrical portion 66 is guided by the bore 44- of cylinder valve body 38. The conical portion 70 mates with conical valve seat 48, closing the inlet passages 58. Although the inlet manifold 24 is sealed off from this piston during the compression stroke the intake fluid may flow around annular recess 57 in the cylinder valve body 38 and be diverted to another pump in-line and undergoing suction stroke. When the fluid pressure in the compression chamber 98 exceeds the combined force of the fluid in the discharge manifold 32 and the discharge valve spring 120 upon the discharge valve 112, the discharge valve plug 114 will move axially away from the piston 102 carrying the discharge valve with it and thereby allowing the fluid in the compression chamber 98 to discharge through the discharge manifold 32.
O-rings effectively seal the fluid from leakage at the interfaces of the various components, and packing 92 prevents leakage of the fluid from the compression chamber 98 past the piston. A gland ring and studs 132 compressively mate the stuffing box, the cylinder head, and the cylinder valve body. Because the studs 132 are constantly in tension, fatigue failure due to cyclical reversal of stress is avoided, and therefor smaller diameter studs may be used than with conventional pumps. At the beginning of the intake stroke inlet fluid pressure upon inlet valve 64 is distributed evenly around the conical portion 70 because second annular recess 72 and conjoining valve seat annulus 50 provide communication between inlet passages 58. This prevents mis-alignment and uneven wear of the inlet valve. For servicing the stuffing box and piston may be removed as a unit and worked on at a bench. Similarly the valves and valve body may be taken out as a unit to be worked upon separately. Leaving the cylinder head in place thereby avoids complicated disconnecting of manifolds.
When the pump is shut off for emergency or operational reasons the pressure built up in compression chambers 98 will continue to exhaust fluid into the discharge manifold until the intemal pressure is reduced to that at outlet port 30. Where it is necessary to provide for immediate dumping of this pressure, the unloading system projects an unloader rod a predetermined distance beyond valve seat annulus 50 thereby preventing the seating of inlet valve 64. As communication between compression chamber 98 and suction annulus 57 is open, the internal pressure is prevented from rising above inlet pressure. During normal operation of the pump, solenoid 142 retracts rod 140 sufficiently to allow proper seating and sealing of valve 64. At all times seal 146 prevents leakage of the fluid to atmosphere through the cylinder head unloader port 144.
In reciprocating pumps with conventional manifolding, the studs join the stuffing box to a working barrel which contains the compression chamber. Thus, the force transmitted through the box to the gland and studs fluctuates as the pressure in accordance with the chambers fluctuates. ln this invention, the force transmitted to the gland 130 through the stuffing box 80 is the relatively constant force of the discharge fluid working to separate valve body block 38 from cylinder head 14. This forceplaces studs 132 in fairly constant tension, reducing the cyclical reversals that cause fatigue failure and thereby permitting the use of smaller diameter studs.
In the horizontal modification of the pump the cylinder head plug 138 may be removed providing ready access to the discharge valve and valve plug assembly. The operation of this modification differs in the fluid flow within the valve body because of the modified inlet valve and discharge passage structure. On the'intake stroke of the piston the inlet valve is opened by the pressure differential between the inlet manifold 24 and compression chamber 98. The cylindrical portion of the valve 66 guides its axial movement in the enlarged diameter 62 of the-valve body. Bearing face 100 in the stuffing box which serves as an abutment surface for the inlet valve spring also serves as a valve stop in this modification. With the valve in the open position inlet fluid flows through inlet passages 58 partially diverting around inlet valve seat 77 to the inlet valve bore 74 and to valve body bore 44, and partially through annular recess 56 in the valve body through inlet valve ports 76 to the compression chamber 98. During the compression stroke of the piston the inlet valve is axially moved to close upon the flat valve seat 47 in the valve body. The valve seat recess 49 and the recess 56 prevent binding of the valve in its closed position. The compressed fluid is forced through bore 44, opening discharge valve 112, and flows through discharge passages 59 to the discharge manifold 32.
