Abstract: A motor vehicle oil pump, including: a pump body, an external rotor having a first plurality of lobes, an internal rotor having a second plurality of lobes configured to engage the first plurality of lobes of the external rotor, and a driving body rotatable with respect to the pump body about a first axis of rotation. The external rotor is constrained to the driving body. An idle shaft is rotatably connected to the pump body about a second axis of rotation parallel and eccentric to the first axis of rotation. The external rotor rotates about the first axis of rotation and is rotated by the driving body. The driving body is rotated by a motor. The internal rotor is fitted onto the idle shaft for rotating about the second axis of rotation and is rotated by the external rotor.

Abstract: A variable displacement rotary vane pump. The pump has a pump body, a rotor with vanes that rotates inside the pump body around a rotation axis, an oscillating stator arranged in an eccentric position around the rotor, a fulcrum for the rotation of the oscillating stator with respect to the pump body, and adjusting means for adjusting the displacement of the pump. The adjusting means act on the oscillating stator to move it with respect to the rotor and the pump body. The fulcrum is integrally formed with the oscillating stator and is housed in a recess formed in the pump body. The pump has a sliding element between the fulcrum and the recess. The sliding element is at least partially free to rotate within the recess.

Abstract: A water pump with a stator, a chamber defined inside the stator, a ring arranged inside said chamber having a radially outer surface in contact with a radially inner surface of the stator, and a rotor arranged inside the ring and rotatable around a rotation axis. The rotor has a plurality of vanes movable along respective radial directions and having respective radially outer ends in contact with a radially inner surface of the ring. The ring is made of a material having a friction coefficient lower than friction coefficient of metal materials.

Abstract: A water pump with a pump body, a chamber defined inside the pump body, and a rotor rotatable inside the chamber around a rotation axis with a plurality of vanes movable along respective radial directions. A tilting stator is arranged inside the chamber in an eccentric position with respect to the rotor. The tilting stator is pivoted at a rotation pin. A ring is interposed between the tilting stator and the rotor and is in contact with a radially inner surface of the tilting stator and with radially outer ends of the vanes. Adjusting members for adjusting the pump displacement are active on the tilting stator to move the tilting stator with respect to the rotor and place the tilting stator in at least one predetermined operating position defined between a maximum eccentricity position and a minimum eccentricity position.

Abstract: A variable displacement oil pump is described. The oil pump has a pump body connected to an intake channel and to a delivery channel, a rotor capable of rotating inside the pump body about a rotation axis and provided with a plurality of vanes. The oil pump has an oscillating stator arranged in an eccentric position around the rotor and pivoted inside the pump body at a rotation pin. The oil pump has adjustment means for adjusting the displacement of the oil pump which acts on the oscillating stator to displace it with respect to the rotor and position it in at least one predetermined operative position. The adjustment means has first thrusting means configured to exert a first thrusting action on a first outer surface portion of the oscillating stator arranged on a substantially opposite side with respect to the rotation pin taking as a reference the rotor.

Abstract: A vacuum pump for a motor vehicle engine which has a stator and a chamber, has a side wall, and the side wall has a transversal section with a predetermined shape. The rotor mounted in the chamber is capable of rotating around a rotation axis parallel to the side wall. The vane mounted on the rotor is free to slide in a direction at right angles with respect to the rotation axis of the rotor, and the vane has a predetermined length and two opposite end portions that substantially slide along the side wall of the chamber. At least one of the end portions of the vane has at least one part that has a bend radius substantially equal to that of a part of the side wall, when the one vane is at a reference operating position.

Abstract: An oil and vacuum pumps group (1) for a motor vehicle engine includes a motion transmission shaft (30) extending along a main axis X-X, an oil pump (10) and a vacuum pump (20) fitted on the motion transmission shaft and a gear (40) also fitted on the motion transmission shaft and adapted to derive a rotary motion from a driving gear (41) of a motor vehicle engine and to transfer said rotary motion to the motion transmission shaft to drive the oil pump and the vacuum pump. Advantageously, the oil and vacuum pumps group of the invention is structurally independent from and adapted to be associated with said motor vehicle engine. Preferably, the oil pump (10) and the vacuum pump (20) are units which are structurally independent from each other and the gear (40) of the oil and vacuum pumps group is operatively placed between the oil pump and the vacuum pump.
