Abstract
In a hydraulic pump, an elastic sealing member for performing sealing between a cylinder and a slide piston reciprocating in the cylinder is provided in the front end side of the slide piston and along the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder so that the elastic sealing member receives a compression force from a front end surface of the slide piston in a compression stroke of the slide piston and swells into a pump chamber because of elastic deformation due to the compression force to thereby reduce the volume of the pump chamber. Accordingly, the elastic deformation of the elastic sealing member in the compression stroke is used to increase the discharge quantity.
Claims10
A hydraulic pump comprising:
- a cylinder having a pump chamber;
- a slide piston positioned within said cylinder such that a gap is formed between a portion of said piston and the cylinder, said piston reciprocating in said pump chamber so as to compress and expand a volume of said pump chamber, whereby a fluid in said pump chamber is discharged;
- and
- an elastic sealing member disposed between said cylinder and said slide piston while being compressed so as to prevent said fluid in said pump chamber from leaking out of said gap between said slide piston and said cylinder,
- wherein said elastic sealing member is disposed on a front end side of said slide piston and along an inner circumferential surface of said cylinder so that said elastic sealing member receives a compression force from a front end surface of said slide piston in a compression stroke of said slide piston and is caused to swell into said pump chamber by elastic deformation due to said compression force to thereby reduce the volume of said pump chamber.

- an elastic sealing member disposed between said cylinder and said slide piston while being compressed so as to prevent said fluid in said pump chamber from leaking out of said gap between said slide piston and said cylinder;
- and
- a cover plate embedded in an end portion of said elastic sealing member so as to be in contact with the front end surface of said slide piston and block the gap between said slide piston and said cylinder, so that a part of said elastic sealing member is prevented securely from leaking into the gap in the compression stroke of said slide piston,
- wherein said elastic sealing member is disposed on a front end side of said slide piston and along an inner circumferential surface of said cylinder so that said elastic sealing member receives a compression force from a front end surface of said slide piston in a compression stroke of said slide piston and is caused to swell into said pump chamber by elastic deformation due to said compression force to thereby reduce the volume of said pump chamber.
