A pump particularly for pumping a liquid such as ink, paint, glue or the like, includes at least one rotating pumping member having a respective shaft. The at least one rotating pumping member being at least partially housed inside a pump body, the shaft being rotatably supported by at least one support associated with the pump body. The shaft has on its external cylindrical surface in contact with the liquid one, or more recesses, or the at least one support includes on its internal cylindrical surface in contact with the liquid, one or more recesses.
A pump configured to pump a liquid, comprising at least one rotating pumping member comprising a respective shaft, said at least one rotating pumping member being at least partially housed inside a pump body, said shaft being rotatably supported by at least one support associated with said pump body, wherein said shaft comprises, on its external cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, or wherein said at least one support comprises, on its internal cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, said pump further comprising a liquid-tight component disposed over the pump body and configured to seal the pump, wherein said one or more recesses comprise a plurality of facets or grooves having a longitudinal development substantially parallel to the axis of said shaft, wherein said one or more recesses are defined by said grooves present on said internal cylindrical surface of said support, said grooves being distributed according to a radial symmetry with respect to the central axis of said support, wherein said one or more recesses are distributed over the entire external cylindrical surface of said shaft which is in contact with said liquid.
A pump for pumping a liquid, comprising at least one rotating pumping member comprising a respective shaft, said at least one rotating pumping member being at least partially housed inside a pump body, said shaft being rotatably supported by at least one support associated with said pump body, wherein said shaft comprises, on its external cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, or wherein said at least one support comprises, on its internal cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, wherein said one or more recesses comprise a plurality of facets or grooves having a longitudinal development substantially parallel to the axis of said shaft, and wherein said one or more recesses are defined by said facets present on said external cylindrical surface of said shaft, said facets being distributed according to a radial symmetry with respect to the axis of said shaft, said shaft having a polygonal cross-section having a number of sides greater than or equal to 3, wherein said vertices of said polygonal cross-section are rounded so as to define a contact surface with said support lying on said external cylindrical surface of said shaft.
A pump configured to pump a liquid, comprising at least one rotating pumping member comprising a respective shaft, said at least one rotating pumping member being at least partially housed inside a pump body, said shaft being rotatably supported by at least one support associated with said pump body, wherein said shaft comprises, on its external cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, or wherein said at least one support comprises, on its internal cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, said pump further comprising a liquid-tight component disposed over the pump body and configured to seal the pump, wherein said one or more recesses comprise a plurality of grooves having a mainly transversal development, preferably circumferential.
A pump configured to pump a liquid, comprising at least one rotating pumping member comprising a respective shaft, said at least one rotating pumping member being at least partially housed inside a pump body, said shaft being rotatably supported by at least one support associated with said pump body, wherein said shaft comprises, on its external cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, or wherein said at least one support comprises, on its internal cylindrical surface in contact with said liquid, one or more recesses, said pump further comprising a liquid-tight component disposed over the pump body and configured to seal the pump, wherein said one or more recesses comprise a plurality of facets or grooves having a longitudinal development substantially parallel to the axis of said shaft, wherein said one or more recesses are defined by said grooves present on said internal cylindrical surface of said support, said grooves being distributed according to a radial symmetry with respect to the central axis of said support, wherein said one or more recesses are distributed on said external cylindrical surface of said shaft so as to maintain at least a portion of said external cylindrical surface in contact with the respective internal cylindrical surface of said at least one support in each relative position between said shaft and the respective support.
