Pump with a flow-regulating valve device and an injector device

摘要

A power-steering pump for a motor vehicle is used to pump fluid to an additional fluid-driven device such as a hydraulic motor of a ventilation fan. The pump has a flow-regulating valve and an injector device, where a jet of excess fluid streaming off the flow-regulating valve generates a suction effect that pulls return fluid from a suction pipe or a reservoir tank into the intake area of the pump. A fluid stream returning from the additional fluid-driven device enters the intake area through one or more fluid return channels that are separate from the injector channel.
