Gear ring pump including housing containing port support therein with the port support formed of a material having a greater heat expansion coefficient than a material of the housing

摘要

A gear ring pump includes a pump bearing arranged in the housing cover. A port support is mounted in the pump housing between the impeller set and the end wall of the working chamber in a movable manner towards the driveshaft such that the port support is prevented from rotating. The port support has a suction kidney and a pressure kidney which pass through the port support separately from each other across the entire width of the port support. The thickness of the port support approximately matches the thickness of the impeller set but can also project past the thickness of the impeller set by up to 20%. The thermal expansion coefficient of the port support is approximately 70% to 120% greater than the thermal expansion coefficient of the pump housing. The driveshaft which is rotationally fixed to the inner rotor does not protrude into the port support.

1. A gear ring pump comprising:
a pump housing, a cylindrical work space disposed in the pump housing, wherein the work space comprises a face wall and inflow and outflow regions disposed in the face wall, a housing lid disposed on the pump housing, a seal sealing off the pump housing, a pump bearing, a drive shaft disposed so as to rotate in the pump housing, mounted in the pump bearing, at least one suction connector disposed on the pump housing, at least one suction channel disposed in the pump housing, at least one pressure connector disposed on the pump housing, at least one pressure channel disposed in the pump housing, a rotor bearing disposed in the pump housing, a rotor set disposed on said drive shaft, the rotor set comprising an inner rotor and an outer rotor mounted eccentric to the inner rotor, a port support disposed in the pump housing between the rotor set and the face wall of the work space, at least one suction kidney, at least one pressure kidney, an inflow chamber connected with the at least one suction kidney, an outflow chamber connected with the at least one pressure kidney, and a slide plate connected with the port support and disposed between the rotor set and the port support, wherein said inner rotor comprises gear teeth on an outside portion of the inner rotor, wherein the inner rotor is connected to the drive shaft, wherein the outer rotor comprises gear teeth on an inside portion of the outer rotor, wherein the outer rotor is mounted so as to rotate in the work space of the pump housing, in the rotor bearing, in such a manner that the teeth of the inner rotor mesh with the teeth of the outer rotor, wherein the at least one suction kidney is connected with the at least one suction connector through the at least one suction channel, wherein the at least one pressure kidney is connected with the at least one pressure connector through the at least one pressure channel, wherein a fluid to be pumped is pressed from the suction connector into the pressure connector using the rotor set disposed in the pump housing, wherein the pump bearing is disposed in the housing lid, wherein the port support has a thickness and is mounted so as to be displaceable toward the drive shaft, wherein the port support defines the at least one suction kidney and the at least one pressure kidney, and both the at least one suction kidney and the at least one pressure kidney pass entirely through the port support, separately from one another, in each instance, over the thickness of the port support, wherein the thickness of the port support either corresponds to a thickness of the rotor set, or projects above the thickness of the rotor set by up to 20%, wherein a port support heat expansion coefficient of the port support lies above a pump housing heat expansion coefficient of the pump housing by 70% to 120%, wherein the drive shaft does not project into the port support, and wherein the port support is configured or coated to be wear-resistant on a face side of the port support adjacent to the rotor set.
