Abstract
A rotary positive displacement pump of the pin roller type comprising a pump housing made of aluminum having a pump chamber with the inner periphery being cylindrical, which is fixed between a pump base and a pump case, a rotor eccentrically located within the pump chamber and driven by a motor, a plurality of rollers made of synthetic resin which is inserted in clearance grooves formed on the outer periphery of the rotor, wherein a centrifugal force generated when the rotor rotates moves the rollers toward the inner wall of the pump housing thereby to form a pump operation space.
Claims1
A rotary positive displacement pump driven by a motor and comprising:
- a pump base;
- a pump case;
- a pump housing hermetically sealed with and disposed between said pump base and said pump case and forming a pump chamber with a cylindrical side wall;
- a die casted, abrasion resistance treated, zinc alloy rotor placed in said pump housing to be driven by said motor and having a plurality of grooves formed therein at the outer radial surface thereof;
- a plurality of rollers each of which is inserted into one of said plurality of grooves so as to move in the radial direction under circumferential force by the revolution of said rotor so as to contact with an inner wall of said pump housing to thereby provide a pump operating space;
- intake means which further comprises means for hermetically sealing said intake port means between said pump base and said pump case and for communicating with said pump chamber wherein said rollers further comprise;
- fiber reinforced polyphenylenesulfide and wherein at least said inner wall of said pump housing further comprises polytetrafluoroethylene coated aluminum alloy;
- wherein said abrasion resistance treated rotor further comprises one of a copper and nickel plated rotor;
- and
- wherein said fiber reinforced polyphenylenesulfide rollers further comprises one of carbon and glass fiber reinforced polyphenylenesulfide rollers.
