Abstract
A replaceable motor module for a groundwater sampling device including an inner housing defined by a cylindrical shape and having a first alignment pin. A DC-operated electric motor is positionable within the inner housing, and includes a first set of electrical input terminals, an output shaft capable of downwardly extending through a sealed hole in the inner housing, and a first alignment groove for mating with the first alignment pin of the inner housing. An inner housing cap includes a second set of electrical input terminals and electrical output terminals, and is pressingly engageable with the inner housing.
Claims16
A motor module cap for a replaceable motor module for a groundwater sampling device, the motor module cap comprising:
- an output cap comprising a fluid conduit, a first set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a first plurality of fastener holes;
- and
- a compression disc substantially annular in shape, comprising a second set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a second plurality of fastener holes for affixing the compression disk to the output cap, the second set of lead bores having a diameter equal to or less than the diameter of the first set of lead bores,
- wherein the compression disc is affixed to the output cap such that the first set of lead bores is in alignment with the second set of lead bores and the first plurality of fastener holes is in alignment with the second plurality of fastener holes.
A motor module cap for a replaceable motor module for a groundwater sampling device, the motor module cap comprising:
- an output cap comprising a fluid conduit, a first set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a first plurality of fastener holes;
- and
- a compression disc substantially annular in shape, comprising a second set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a second plurality of fastener holes for affixing the compression disk to the output cap, the second set of lead bores having a diameter equal to or less than the diameter of the first set of lead bores, wherein the compression disc is affixed to the output cap such that the first set of lead bores is in alignment with the second set of lead bores and the first plurality of fastener holes is in alignment with the second plurality of fastener holes;
- and
- further comprising a conduit nipple, defining a conduit axis projecting through the annular space of the compression disc, and extending, at least in part, into the annular space of the compression disc and in fluid communication with the fluid conduit.
A motor module cap for a replaceable motor module for a groundwater sampling device, the motor module cap comprising:
- an output cap comprising a fluid conduit, a first set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a first plurality of fastener holes;
- and
- a compression disc substantially annular in shape, comprising a second set of lead bores for receiving electrical leads and a second plurality of fastener holes for affixing the compression disk to the output cap, the second set of lead bores having a diameter less than the diameter of the first set of lead bores,
- wherein the compression disc is affixed to the output cap such that the first set of lead bores is in alignment with the second set of lead bores and the first plurality of fastener holes is in alignment with the second plurality of fastener holes;
- and
- wherein at least one spacer or, at least one o-ring or at least one spacer and at least one o-ring is compressed within the first set of lead bores by the compression disc.
