  • Patent number: 11867292
    Abstract: The invention concerns a mechanical seal device (1) with a mechanical seal (10) which comprises a dry-running protection device (20), the dry-running protection device (20) having at least one microsystem (21) which outputs a digital measured value (W), the microsystem (2) being arranged adjacent to the mechanical seal (10) and/or on and/or in the mechanical seal (10). The measured value (W) makes it possible to protect the mechanical seal (10) from overloads. Furthermore, the invention concerns a pump device (100) with such a mechanical seal device (1), the mechanical seal (10) being arranged in a shaft passage (102) and sitting on a pump shaft (103). Furthermore, the invention concerns a method of operating this pump device (100) in which the speed of a drive motor (105) of the pump shaft (103) is adapted on the basis of the digital measured value (W) of the microsystem (21).

  • Patent number: 11761453
    Abstract: A pump impeller, which can be part of a pump, has an impeller surface and blades being arranged on the impeller surface, wherein at least one of the blades is a blade of the first type which has a blade edge which is inclined toward the front in the rotational direction. The pump impeller can also have blades of a first type and of a second type, the blade geometries thereof differing from one another. A housing element for a pump or of a pump has a housing inner wall defining a flow channel for a fluid medium extending along a central axis. The cross section of the flow channel is greater in a main flow direction and the housing inner wall has a surface structure configured such that it counteracts a return flow counter to the main flow direction along the housing inner wall of the fluid medium.

  • Patent number: 9651074
    Abstract: A connection system (1) for detachably connecting a component element to a coated component part (3), includes a coupling element (2) that has a head (6) with a non-round outer cross-section and has a shank (5). The head (6) can be received by a frictional connection in a rotationally fixed manner in a head region (11) of a connection opening (4) of the component part (3). The shank (5) can be received in a friction-locked and/or firmly-bonded manner in a sealing region (12) of the connection opening (4). The head (6) has an internal geometry for connecting the component element.

  • Patent number: 9447793
    Abstract: The invention relates to a centrifugal pump (1) that has a suction-side inlet (3) and at least one pressure-side outlet (4), wherein a rotatably mounted impeller (5) for pumping a pump medium from the inlet (3) to the outlet (4) and an impeller seat (10) are arranged in the pump housing (2). In order to achieve a high degree of sealing and a long service life, the impeller seat (10) is formed in a ring-shaped impeller protector (8) which is made from a corrosion-resistant material and is received in the pump housing (2), wherein an insertion region (7) of the impeller (5) is radially surrounded by the impeller protector (8). This impeller protector (8) protects the coating against damage to the impeller (5) in the impeller seat (10).
