  • Rotor assemblies having radial deformation control members
    Patent number: 10400765
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a gear pump rotor assembly that includes a rotor body, a rotor head having a plurality of gear teeth and being connected to the rotor body, at least one connector extending between the rotor body and the rotor head, at least one radial deformation control member that extends into at least one gear tooth of the rotor head and reduces the radial deformation of the rotor head relative to the rotor body when a change in temperature causes radial deformation of the rotor body and rotor head.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2017
    Date of Patent: September 3, 2019
    Assignee: PeopleFlo Manufacturing, Inc.
    Inventors: William R. Blankemeier, Jorge G. Murphy, Clark J. Shafer, Michael P. Thompson, Daniel T. Turner

  • Rotary device having a radial magnetic coupling
    Patent number: 9771938
    Abstract: Rotary devices having a casing and an inner drive portion of a magnet coupling disposed inside of a rotor assembly are disclosed. The inner drive portion and rotor assembly are disposed within the casing and rotatable about a rotational axis. The rotor assembly includes a bushing between the magnets of the rotor assembly and a stationary canister is sealed to the casing and separates an internal fluid chamber within the casing from the inner driven portion. The stationary canister can be of multi-piece or unitary construction and is held in position by a front portion of the casing.
