  • Publication number: 20230265847
    Abstract: An eccentric screw pump with a rotor, which forms a conveyor screw, and a stator, which forms a screw thread and in which the rotor circulates during a conveying operation. The stator includes a single-part or multipart stator housing, in which a stator lining made of an elastomer material is located, said lining forming the screw thread. The stator lining forms a projection at least on one side in the direction along the pump longitudinal axis, said projection protruding from the stator housing such that a free force introduction surface is formed. A force can be applied via the free force introduction surface, said force compressing the stator lining into the stator housing so that the stator lining is transversely elongated in the stator housing, leading to a constriction of the screw thread. The projection can be surrounded by a mobile support tube which is moved relative to the stator housing in the direction along the longitudinal axis of the stator housing for compression purposes.

  • Patent number: 10760570
    Abstract: A stator-rotor system of an eccentric screw pump including a rotor with a rotor screw and a stator with an internal thread. The stator includes a support element and an elastomer part. The support element surrounds the elastomer part in sections around the whole circumference. The stator-rotor system includes a mechanism for adjusting the stator, having two adjustment elements arranged on the stator-rotor system, which are distance-variable relative to one another. In a first working position the two adjustment elements have a first distance from one another and in a second working position, a second distance. The cross-section and the length of the elastomer part of the stator in the second working position are changed compared to the cross-section and the length of the elastomer part in the first working position.

  • Publication number: 20180010604
    Abstract: The invention pertains to an eccentric screw pump with a stator-rotor system, which includes a rotor with a rotor screw and a stator with an internal thread. The stator has a support element and an elastomer part, wherein the support element encloses the elastomer part sectionally over its entire circumference. The stator-rotor system has a mechanism for adjusting the stator, which is coupled to at least one sensor for determining actual operating parameters of the stator-rotor system by means of a control unit that activates the adjusting mechanism with consideration of the actual operating parameters determined with the aid of at least one sensor.

  • Publication number: 20130342974
    Abstract: A hinge structure of the present disclosure to be used with an electrical conductor is provided. The hinge structure comprises a first positioning member, a second positioning member, and at least one electrical conductor. One side of the first positioning member forms a plurality of first fixing portions, the other side has a shaft. The shaft has two openings and a tunnel connecting the two openings for the passage of the electrical conductor. The shaft further forms a slot for receiving the electrical conductor. One side of the second positioning member has a sleeve portion, and the other side has a plurality of second fixing portions. The sleeve portion is rotatively engaged with the shaft, such that the hinge structure of the present disclosure may be reduced its dimensions. Accordingly, the portable electronic device applying the hinge structure may be light-weighted and miniaturized.
