  • Publication number: 20070104595
    Abstract: The invention relates to an eccentric screw pump which includes a stator and a rotor rotating therein as well as a drive motor for driving the rotor. The armature of the drive motor is non-rotationally linked with the rotor and rotates inside a cylindrical pot on an eccentric orbit. The torque for driving the rotor is generated by means of a stator winding.

  • Patent number: 7104770
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the arrangement of a stator and a spare stator. In order to avoid a permanent correction in the length of the driving shaft, the spare stator is connected to the instantaneously operated stator or is configured in a single piece. Upon occurrence of a defined amount of wear, this stator combination is merely reversed through 180° relative to the longitudinal axis or an intermediate tube is inserted so that the spare stator arrives in the rotor region.

  • Publication number: 20040057846
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an eccentric screw-type pump. Due to their contact with the product to be pumped, the rotor and the stator of an eccentric screw-type are subject to a permanent wearing process. As the exchange of corresponding components subject to wear involves down times or requires special tools, the inventive eccentric screw-type pump is provided with a spare unit including, in particular, the stator, the rotor, the shaft, the driving shaft and the seal.
