Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A rotary pump, including: a housing featuring a delivery space which includes an inlet for a fluid on a suction side of the rotary pump and an outlet for the fluid on a pressure side of the rotary pump; an inner rotor which is arranged in the delivery space; an outer rotor which is arranged in the delivery space and forms delivery cells with the inner rotor, wherein an outer circumferential wall of the outer rotor is mounted in a sliding manner on an inner circumferential wall of the delivery space, wherein the inner circumferential wall of the delivery space and/or the outer circumferential wall of the outer rotor comprises at least one pocket.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A rotary pump, comprising: a housing featuring a delivery space which comprises an inlet for a fluid on a suction side of the rotary pump and an outlet for the fluid on a pressure side of the rotary pump; an inner rotor which is arranged in the delivery space; an outer rotor which is arranged in the delivery space and forms delivery cells with the inner rotor, wherein an outer circumferential wall of the outer rotor is mounted in a sliding manner on an inner circumferential wall of the delivery space, wherein the inner circumferential wall of the delivery space and/or the outer circumferential wall of the outer rotor comprises at least one pocket, wherein an axial extension of the at least one pocket is smaller than an axial length of the outer rotor and the at least one pocket has only one closed axial end, and wherein the at least one pocket is separated from the inlet and the outlet for the fluid. 2. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one pocket is open on an axial end facing a lid or a bottom which delimits the delivery space axially. 3. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a cup-shaped housing part forming the inner circumferential wall and a bottom of the delivery space of the rotary pump, and wherein the at least one pocket is formed in the inner circumferential wall of the cup-shaped housing part. 4. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one pocket comprises a plurality of pockets. 5. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one pocket is formed in the inner circumferential wall of the delivery space. 6. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the one closed axial end is a closed axial front end. 7. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one pocket is arranged in an area radially outward from the outlet and/or the inlet. 8. The rotary pump according to claim 1 , comprising an electric drive.
