Abstract: A rotary apparatus is described having: a vane; a rotor comprising a center, the rotor configured to carry the vane; and a housing, the rotor operatively mounted within the housing. The vane includes: a central vane axis extending longitudinally through the vane along a y-axis, the y-axis comprising a line from the center of the rotor to the housing, and a vane end intersecting the y-axis, the vane end proximate an inner surface of said housing. The vane end of the vane further includes a vane extension protruded radially outward from about the vane end along an x-axis about perpendicular to the y-axis, the vane extension comprising at least one aperture therethrough.

Abstract: A rotary engine configured to use compressed air or high pressure steam to produce power. It has a casing with two peripheral exhaust ports each adjacent to a flattened area, a rotor having three slotted pistons, and a center valve with two opposed inlet ports that provide high pressure steam or compressed air to the pistons. Each rotor revolution produces three power strokes. Furthermore, the volume of air used for a single cycle is reduced, as a result of the air traveling through its pistons. Also, the engine stops when the vehicle it powers is at rest, and a spring inside each piston causes its angled tip to contact the rotary chamber upon start up. In addition, it is inexpensive to manufacture, as there is not much tooling needed to make the rotary engine, and it has only four moving parts, its rotor and the three pistons attached to it.

Abstract: A hydraulic pump or motor includes a body having a chamber and a rotor rotatably mounted within the chamber. The chamber and rotor are shaped to define one or more rise regions, fall regions, major dwell regions and minor dwell regions between walls of the chamber and the rotor. The rotor has a plurality of slots and vanes located in each slot. Each vane is movable between a retracted position and an extended position. In the retracted position, the vanes are unable to work the hydraulic fluid introduced into the chamber whereas they are able to work the hydraulic fluid introduced into the chamber in the extended position. A vane retaining member that is selectively actuable enables the vanes to be retained in the retracted position.

Abstract: This invention concerns pumping fluids to both high pressures and high flow rates and thus has a very high power density. The technology pertains to both fluid power and to fluid transfer and is adaptable to a wide scope of use. The concept is a very simple rotary variable displacement expansible chamber pump which can also be a rotary kinetic pump and thus is a hybrid. At a positive displacement setting, the pump primes by positive displacement, then as the rotational speed increases; the pump gains a kinetic pumping component, then as head pressure increases the pump again becomes positive displacement. At a zero displacement setting, the pump is purely a rotary kinetic pump. The variable displacement feature allows both performance and efficiency. The porting allows very high rotational speeds and flow rates near to centrifugal designs. When set at zero displacement, the device has features both of positive displacement fan (gear pump) and kinetic (centrifugal pump). The pump is vibration free and silent.

The housing contains wing deflector cams (5) that divide the space between housing and rotor into chambers (8a, b). The rotor is equipped with cylindrical rollers (7) in recesses (6), which rollers can move between an extended and a retracted position. Drilling fluid enters the chamber parts (8a) through inlet ports (10) in the upper bearing part of the housing (1) and pushes rollers (71) into their extended position and in a clockwise direction, making the rotor turn, whilst drilling fluid of lower pressure is pushed from the corresponding chamber parts (8b) through outlet ports (9) in the lower bearing part of the housing (1) and further to the drill bit below. When the rollers (71) reach the wing deflector cams (5) they are forced into the retracted position, their task being taken over by rollers (72).

Abstract: A fuel feed assembly with a feed pump of the roller-cell pump type, of which the pump rotor rotates eccentrically in a pumping chamber has a plurality of rollers which are guided in radial grooves of the disk-shaped pump rotor and are distributed uniformly over the circumference. When the pump rotor is rotating, the rollers run, as a result of the centrifugal force, on a bore wall of an intermediate ring radially delimiting the pumping chamber. The bore wall forms a running track. At the same time, the rollers delimit individual sickle-shaped pump rotor and the bore wall and the volume decreases from a suction port towards a delivery port as a result of the eccentricity of the pump rotor. At the same time, there is provided between the delivery port and suction port in the direction of rotation of the pump rotor a narrow-gap region which, according to the invention, is made so large that the pump working spaces passing through this region are closed completely.

A suction port is formed in at least one of the side plates, while an opening portion is formed in a rear side portion of the vane as viewed in a direction of rotation of the rotor and being opened at a surface of the vane making sliding contact with the rotor. This opening portion is repeatedly communicated with and interrupted from a working space in the compressor according to the reciprocative movement of the vane relative to the rotor.

Abstract: A vane-type rotary compressor comprises a cylinder which receives an axially mounted rotor. A shaft end connected to the rotor carries a groove which registers with holes provided in an axially slidable ring. The ring slides axially within a central cavity in an end plate fixed to the cylinder. The end plates carries radial passages for communication with the holes in the ring. One hole for expelling gas from chambers defined by radially movable vanes in the rotor, always communicates with an arc-shaped groove on the plate through one of the holes in the ring. This is despite the axial position of the ring. Two other holes are provided in the ring near opposite axial ends of the ring for varying amounts of overlap with a discharge an an unloading passage. In this way with the ring at one axial end of its stroke, all of the gas is discharged while at the opposite end of the stroke all of the gas is supplied to the unloading passage.

Abstract: A reversible hydraulic motor has a forward and a reverse drive section, each separated by a separating plate. Each section has an outer ring, end plate and inner rotor forming a chamber therebetween. Each rotor has a pair of radial slots, separated by 180.degree., and a piston moveable in each slot. An extension form the outer ring to the rotor divides the chamber and moves the pistons inward into the rotor slots at the end of each revolution. Hydraulic fluid is selectively applied, under pressure, to the desired direction section to the interior space between the rotor slot and the piston during the 180.degree. after the rotor rotates past the extension. Each piston has a fluid path therethrough to allow the provided hydraulic fluid to exit the piston interior space into the chamber in a direction opposite to the desired direction of rotation. This exiting fluid builds up pressure in the chamber and rotates the piston and rotor. A fluid return path is provided in the second 1/2.degree.

These grooves extend from the periphery of the respective end face toward the center thereof but short of said center to produce a flow preventing leakage of the working medium between the low pressure region and the high pressure region in the compressor.

Abstract: A rotary vane pump can be constructed so as to utilize an auxiliary inlet port which is used to convey one fluid under pressure to the interior of the pump where such fluid is mixed with fluid drawn into the pump in a normal manner. In the disclosed structure the fluid conveyed to the pump through the auxiliary inlet port is used to force vanes carried by the pump rotor outwardly into contact with an eccentric wall in the pump stator. The vanes are preferably formed and mounted on the rotor so that the fluid conveyed through the auxiliary inlet port passes into the space between the rotor and the stator by flowing alongside the vanes. A structure of this type is preferably utilized with one of the inlet fluids being water and the other of the inlet fluids being a gaseous mixture containing a high proportion of ozone.
