Abstract: A working machine has an oil groove communicating a pump chamber with a gear chamber, and a small amount of oil is delivered to the gear chamber when oil is discharged from the pump chamber. Thus, the oil adheres to the outer peripheral surface of a rotating pump shaft and is kept remaining between a pump case and the pump shaft. Therefore, the viscosity is increased and a pressure loss between the pump chamber and the gear chamber is increased. Accordingly, the airtightness can be maintained, and the stable and inexpensive oil pump mechanism requiring less man-hour can be realized without depending on the accuracy of a gap between the pump case and the pump shaft. Since oil is kept remaining on the outer peripheral surface of the pump shaft, it is possible to prevent the pump case from being worn out and to improve the durability of components.

To prevent overheating and damage to the pump components, the pumping apparatus makes use of a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistor interposed between the motor and a current source.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a dynamically adjustable, synchronously and/or asynchronously reciprocating fluid dispenser. A pump drive motor is coupled to the reciprocating fluid pump to actuate a pump shaft within a pump cylinder, wherein the pump shaft includes a duct that allows fluid to selectively pass thereby within the pump cylinder. As the pump shaft rotates within the pump cylinder, fluid is allowed to enter into a pump bore defined by a portion of the pump cylinder through a pump ingress port. As the pump shaft rotates, it blocks the pump ingress port. Further rotation allows the duct to allow the fluid in the pump bore to be dispensed through a pump egress port. An adjustment motor is coupled to an adjustment mechanism, which selectively adjusts the volume of the pump bore. A controller is coupled to the adjustment motor to dynamically control the adjustment motor, to cause the adjustment mechanism to be precisely and repeatably modified, and/or to control the particular waveform.

Abstract: A nutating pump is disclosed which has a modified piston and housing or casing that provides two distinct pump chambers or areas. Output from the first pump chamber is delivered during a first half of the dispense cycle or the piston movement cycle. A substantial portion of this output is held for delivery by the second chamber during a second part or half of the dispense cycle. Thus, the output generated by the pump is not altered or reduced, it is delivered over the entire piston movement cycle as opposed to prior art pumps which deliver all of the fluid during a first half or first portion of the piston movement cycle. In this way, superior pulse modification is achieved as fluid is delivered across the entire piston movement cycle as opposed to a first half or first portion of the piston movement cycle. In additional embodiments disclosed, two distinct chambers are also provided but each chamber generates its own output as the piston includes two machined or flat sections for active pumping.

Abstract: A dual chamber mixing pump design is disclosed which allows two different sources of fluid to be combined into one mixed product fluid. The pump is divided into two chambers, the proximal chamber and the distal chamber. The chambers are defined in part by a piston having proximal and distal ends and recessed sections. The pump utilizes one common driving mechanism to axially rotate and laterally reciprocate the piston to provide continuous pumping of fluids with reduced pulsations. Each fluid enters through its own pump inlet and outlet. For mixing applications, the outlets are joined together. The flow volume per stroke of each chamber is determined by the lateral stroke of the entire piston assembly and also by the annular areas of the proximal and distal ends of the piston. The flow volume per stroke may be altered by varying the piston and shaft diameters for each chamber. This allows mixing of two fluids in any ratio or proportion desired.

Abstract: A valveless, double acting, positive displacement fluid transfer device is operable either as a pump when driven by a power source, or as a motor when the fluid working portion is driven by fluid under pressure through the inlet and outlet ports of the device. The device is based upon the principle of a plunger and cylinder which are angularly offset from a rotary shaft, and connected to the rotary shaft by radial arm and a spherical bearing. The plunger simultaneously rotates and reciprocates as the rotary shaft revolves, due to the plunger stroke varying cyclically due to the angular offset, as the plunger rotates within the cylinder. The plunger includes separate internal inlet and outlet passages therethrough, which cyclically communicate with an inlet port and an opposite coaxial outlet port in the cylinder to provide both suction and discharge with each plunger stroke.

The employment of different plastic materials between the rotary cam and the pump housing provides an improved bearing surface.
