Patent number: 8083506Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a double action simplex pump including a pump body with a first half and a second half joined together to form an enclosed cavity. The first half includes a first pipe member and the second half includes a second pipe member. A first end of the first pipe member is a fluid inlet port and a second end of the second pipe member is a fluid outlet port. The enclosed cavity defines a first pocket and a second pocket each in fluid communication with a first lumen of the first pipe member and a second lumen of the second pipe member. A first valve assembly is positioned in the first pocket and a second valve assembly is positioned in the second pocket. Each of the first valve assembly and the second valve assembly includes a valve casing supporting an inlet poppet valve, an outlet poppet valve, and a central opening located between the inlet poppet valve and the outlet poppet valve. The central opening is aligned with one of a plunger and a diaphragm.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2010Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: Sta-Rite Industries, LLCInventors: Bruce A. Maki, Daniel A. Beilke

Patent number: 7775781Abstract: A double-acting, simplex, fluid handling pump is designed to facilitate an optional configuration as either a plunger pump or a diaphragm pump. An injection molded plastic pump body comprises two bilaterally symmetrical halves that include internal pockets and grooves for clamping and retaining first and second generally identical valve assemblies at opposing end portions of the pump body. When configured as a plunger pump, first and second plunger are arranged to move 180 degrees out-of-phase with respect to one another within stationary guide sleeves that are clamped within the pump body where one plunger effecting a suction stroke while the other effects a compression stroke. When configured as a diaphragm pump, the plungers are removed from the connecting rods and replaced by diaphragms and a change is made in the valve casing employed but a majority of the remaining parts of the pump assembly remain unchanged from what is used in the plunger pump.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2008Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: Hypro, LLCInventors: Bruce A.

An injection molded plastic pump body comprises two bilaterally symmetrical halves that include internal pockets and grooves for clamping and retaining first and second generally identical valve assemblies at opposing end portions of the pump body. When configured as a plunger pump, first and second plunger are arranged to move 180° out-of-phase with respect to one another within stationary guide sleeves that are clamped within the pump body where one plunger effecting a suction stroke while the other effects a compression stroke. When configured as a diaphragm pump, the plungers are removed from the connecting rods and replaced by diaphragms and a change is made in the valve casing employed but a majority of the remaining parts of the pump assembly remain unchanged from what is used in the plunger pump.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2004Date of Patent: June 24, 2008Assignee: Hypro, LLCInventors: Bruce A.

Publication number: 20030206811Abstract: In an axial, variable displacement, positive displacement pump having a swash plate mounted on a drive shaft for rotation therewith and a non-rotatable wobble plate surrounding the swash plate but isolated there from through bearings includes a slide mechanism disposed on the shaft that can be axially displaced along the shaft as the shaft is being driven to thereby vary the angle of inclination of the swash plate and wobble plate relative to the drive shaft. The pump further includes a unitary in-line valve assembly including suction and discharge poppet valves for each cylinder whereby the overall diameter of the cylinder block can be minimized.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2002Publication date: November 6, 2003Applicant: Hypro CorporationInventors: Bruce A.
