  • Pumping apparatus having a flow guiding element
    Patent number: 10634165
    Abstract: A pumping apparatus includes an impeller, an inlet housing and at least one flow guiding element. The impeller is rotationally supported for the guidance of a pumpable medium about an axis of rotation. The inlet housing spans a suction region upstream of the impeller. The at least one flow guiding element is at least partly arranged within the suction region and the flow guiding element is provided to guide the medium flow in the direction of the impeller.
