Abstract
A centrifugal pump including a rotor and a housing surrounding the rotor, the housing having a connection on the pressure side and another on the intake side, respectively. The housing surrounding the rotor is constructed as a composite part in which a first thin-walled layer (5) defines the inner configuration of the housing, and at least one second layer (11) provides structural stability to the housing.
Claims20
A centrifugal pump comprising a rotor and a casing surrounding said rotor, said casing having respective delivery-side and suction-side connections, wherein the casing surrounding the rotor is constructed as a composite part with a first layer which determines the internal shape of the casing and at least one second layer which provides structural stability to the casing, wherein the first layer is connected in a pressure-tight manner to components arranged on a shaft and to the delivery-side and suction-side connections and the second layer is composed of a material formed plastically onto the first layer.
