  • Patent number: 6027040
    Abstract: A nozzle head includes a nozzle carrier so mounted to a stationary housing as to allow rotation thereof about a longitudinal axis by a recoil action caused by pressure water exiting spray nozzles accommodated in the nozzle carrier, and a hollow shaft rotatably supported in the housing and secured to the nozzle carrier. The hollow shaft has a central passage for conducting pressure water to the spray nozzles; and has a pressure water connection proximate end face which is supported by a first sealing disk of highly wear-resistant material, e.g. ceramics. The first sealing disk is connected to the hollow shaft via a mounting so as to conjointly rotate with the nozzle carrier and hollow shaft during operation of the nozzle head. The shaft-distal end face of the first sealing disk bears upon a second stationary sealing disk which is also made of a highly wear-resistant material, e.g. ceramics, and received in a mounting which is fixed via a seal ring in the housing.

  • Patent number: 5848880
    Abstract: A high-pressure plunger pump assembly, in particular for working pressures above 2000 bar, includes a housing, a cylinder received in the housing and defining a working space which has an expanded area along a section thereof for receiving a sleeve therein, and a plunger slidably moveable in the working space of the cylinder and in the sleeve and being suitably operated by a drive for reciprocating movement. The sleeve has one end closer to the plunger drive and formed with an annular flange. A suction valve communicates with the cylinder for admitting fluid from a suction chamber into the working space, and a pressure valve communicates with the cylinder for expelling fluid from the working space during a pressure stroke of the plunger, with a seal being positioned in a transitional area from the annular flange to the cylinder between the working space and the suction chamber.

  • Patent number: 5694976
    Abstract: A pump for distributing water at an extremely high-pressure to several appliances. Every appliance can connect and disconnect independently and has associated with it a device that diverts the water trapped in it when it disconnects. The object is to minimize wear in the water-diversion device. The device accommodates a constricted section in the form of an annular space that the water trapped in the appliance can escape through. Such pumps are employed for cleaning a wide range of articles.

  • Patent number: 5147189
    Abstract: A maximum-pressure plunger plump has, coaxial with its longitudinal axis, a compression valve and a suction valve. It has a sleeve that floats on a plunger. The sleeve rests on the end facing the head of the pump on an inset. the inset is provided with a seat area for the body of the suction valve and with suction channels. The sleeve has a bushing. The suction valve is in a form of a disk. It has a spring-loaded annular body that rests on the valve-seat area that the suction channels open out of in the insert in the pump head.The plunger's bushing (9) extends to th eend of the sleeve (7) that faces the head (2) of the pump with its face against the insert (12) and in that a sealing sleeve (15) that overlaps the area or seam of impact between the insert and the sleeve is accommodated in the flow channel between the bushing and the insert.
