Abstract
A pump in which a valve bridges the pressure region and the suction region and the delivery system displaces liquid from the suction region to a pressure region. The pump housing has an annular channel connected to the suction or intake passage and into which an injector extends to train a jet from the high pressure side a the valve into the suction region through the channel which surrounds the injector so that the jet asperates liquid from the channel into the suction region.
Claims2
A pump, comprising:
- a housing formed with an inlet at a suction region and an outlet at a pressure region;
- a delivery system in said housing for displacing a liquid from said suction region to said pressure region, said housing being formed with a fluid supply passage communicating with said suction region;
- a control valve connected between said suction region and said pressure region;
- an injector receiving said liquid under high pressure from said valve for discharging a jet of said liquid;
- means in said housing forming an annular channel connected to said passage and surrounding said injector, whereby said jet entrains liquid from said channel into said suction region, said housing being further formed with a bore aligned with said injector;
- and
- a sleeve fastening said injector in said housing forming an insert received in said bore, said sleeve having an anchoring ring anchored in said bore of said housing and two webs provided on said ring and extending inwardly from said ring into engagement with a collar of said injector, said webs being arranged so as not to interfere with aspiration of liquid by said jet into and through said sleeve.
