Abstract: At a vaned diffuser or a volute casing of a centrifugal fluid machine, pressure pulsation and vibrating forces acting upon the diffuser or the volute casing are mitigated or cancelled so as to abate the noise from the centrifugal fluid machine. The fluid machine having an impeller 3 rotating about a rotating shaft 2 within a casing 1 and having a vaned diffuser 4 or volute 12 fixed to the casing 1 is constructed such that radius of the vane trailing edge of the impeller 3 and radius of the vane leading edge of the diffuser 4 or radius of the volute tongue is varied in the direction of axis of rotation and inclinations, on a meridional plane, of the vane trailing edge of the impeller 3 and the vane leading edge of the diffuser 4 or the volute tongue are set in the same orientation, thereby reduction in head and efficiency or occurrence of an axial thrust may be restrained to the extent possible to optimally abate the noise and pressure pulsation of the centrifugal fluid machine.
Abstract: A multiple-type vacuum pump has a simple construction and superior durability. The multiple-type vacuum pump has the capacity to perform air evacuation at high velocities in the low to high vacuum zone range. The multiple-type vacuum pump includes: a screw type pump air transfer portion arranged at a downstream portion of the outer surface of a rotor and has a plurality of screw threads and screw grooves with a width of 5 mm or more; a turbo-molecular type pump air transfer portion arranged at an upstream portion and has a plurality of vanes and air transfer grooves; vanes having vane widths of 3 mm or less at the upstream edge, and formed so that the downstream edge is continuous with the upstream edge of the screw threads; a downstream edge of the base of the air transfer grooves formed so as to be continuous with the upstream edge of the base of the screw grooves.

Abstract: A compression or expansion two-phase helical mixed flow impeller (1) comprising one or more vanes (3) mounted on a boss, a cover (4) or fairing mounted on the outer part of the vanes, the assembly being arranged in a housing (2). The cover (4) has at least one of its ends corresponding to the inlet and/or the outlet of the impeller, a slop whose value is determined so as to limit leaks between the inlet and the outlet of the impeller.
Abstract: A high conveying capacity cooling water pump for an internal combustion engine includes a bearing element, a rotor which is held therein and carries three impellers, an inflow housing and an outflow housing. The outflow housing and the bearing element form a integral unit.
Abstract: A fan guard has a function of supercharging a fan in addition to supporting a rotor device is disclosed. The fan guard is to be mounted beside the rotor device for supporting the rotor device, and additionally, the fan guard interacts with an airflow generated by the revolution of the rotor blades to supercharge the fan. The fan guard essentially includes a main frame, and a set of guard blades radially arranged inside the main frame and fixed onto an inner surface of the main frame by each one end thereof. Each of the guard blades is preferred to have a shape similar to the shape of the rotor blades, and the set of guard blades can be arranged either upstream or downstream of the rotor blades.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a friction vacuum pump having at least one turbomolecular pump stage (2) joined at its pressure side to a screw pump stage (4). In order to improve the pump properties it is proposed that a filling stage (3) be arranged between the turbomolecular pump stage (2) and the screw pump stage (4) that has blades (13) whose length corresponds at the suction side to the active length of the blades at the pressure side of the turbomolecular pump stage (2), and at the pressure side to the depth of the suction-side region of the screw (14) of the screw stage (4).
