<p>Helical screw rotors for a screw rotor machine having improved asymmetric screw profiles on both male (2) and female (4) rotors, wherein the male rotor lobe leading flank (30) comprises solely first (D-E) and second (E-F) circular arcs with the first circular arc (D-E) subscribed by a first radius (R,) which lies on a radial line (74) through the male rotor center (70) at an offset angle α to the male rotor lobe centerline (72) in the direction of the trailing flank (28) of the rotor lobe (22) to create a male rotor tip (D) point inherently including a male rotor lobe sealing strip. Groove trailing flank portions (40) of the female rotor lobes (34) are defined by first (M-N) and second (K-M) circular arcs subscribed by first (R?) and second (R,) radii within addendum (38) and dedendum (39) portions of the female rotor lobes (34), providing a smooth uninterrupted surface starting below the pitch circle (14) and terminating at or near the outside diameter (20) of the female rotor lobes (34), with the point of tangency (M) of the first (R,) and second (R2) radii of the female groove trailing flank (40) portion occurring at a point of zero sliding with the male rotor (2) on the pitch circle (14). The female rotor lobes (34) have a main lobe peripheral surface (44) defined by a true circular arc (R3) swung from an offset circle (50) centered on the rotor axis (48) at the groove trailing (40) side, inherently producing a female rotor lobe sealing strip (S) and significantly reducing the blow hole area of the screw rotor machine.</p> |
