Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A delivery unit is already known, which comprises a drive shaft and a rotor driven by the drive shaft. The rotor is rotatably arranged in a stator housing, wherein the rotor has a toothing on the end face of said rotor that is remote from the drive shaft, wherein said toothing meshes with a toothing constructed on the stator housing. The drive shaft comprises an oblique sliding plane interacting with the rotor and which is constructed on a shoulder of the drive shaft and allows the rotor to gyrate with the rotor axis thereof about the drive axis of the drive shaft. Work spaces are formed between the toothing of the rotor and the toothing of the stator housing, wherein said work spaces can be filled via an inlet and emptied via an outlet. In one embodiment the fluid is admitted axially and discharged radially, and in the other embodiment the fluid is admitted and discharged axially. For that purpose, control valves in the form of non-return valves are required. The non-return valves cause additional internal leakages, resulting in a reduction in the volumetric efficiency of the pump. The valves are additional parts, which are associated with additional costs and an increased risk of failure. In the delivery unit according to the invention the control valves can be dispensed with. According to the invention the inlet ( 15 ) is provided in a channel ( 20 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ) and the outlet ( 16 ) is provided at the shoulder ( 6 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A delivery unit having a drive shaft ( 2 ) and a rotor ( 3 ) which is driven by the drive shaft ( 2 ) and is arranged rotatably in a stator housing ( 4 ), the drive shaft ( 2 ) having an oblique sliding piano ( 5 ) which interacts with the rotor ( 3 ), is formed on a shoulder ( 6 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ) and allows the rotor ( 3 ) to tumble with a rotor axis ( 7 ) about a drive axis ( 8 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ), the rotor ( 3 ) having a toothing system ( 12 ) on an end side which faces away from the drive shaft ( 2 ), which toothing system ( 12 ) meshes with a toothing system ( 13 ) which is formed on the stator housing ( 4 ), working spaces ( 1 . 4 ) being formed between the toothing system ( 12 ) of the rotor ( 3 ) and the toothing system ( 13 ) of the stator housing ( 4 ), which working spaces ( 14 ) can be filled via an inflow ( 15 ) and can be emptied via an outflow ( 16 ), characterized in that one of the inflow ( 15 ) and the outflow is provided in a channel ( 20 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ) and the other of the inflow and the outflow ( 16 ) is provided on the shoulder ( 6 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ), characterized in that the outflow ( 16 ) is of arcuate configuration or includes a plurality of outflow openings which are arranged arcuately, characterized in that the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ) is of circular configuration, the inflow ( 15 ) being arranged in one circle half and the outflow ( 16 ) being arranged in another circle half of the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ), and characterized in that at least one separating web ( 21 ) is provided between the inflow ( 15 ) and the outflow ( 16 ). 2. The delivery unit as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the inflow ( 15 ) and the outflow ( 16 ) are formed in the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ) of the drive shaft ( 2 ). 3. The delivery unit as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the inflow ( 15 ) and the outflow ( 16 ) are arranged next to one another in the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ). 4. The delivery unit as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the channel ( 20 ) opens into the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ) via a semicircular recess ( 22 ). 5. The delivery unit as claimed in claim characterized in that the rotor ( 3 ) has a sliding face ( 19 ) which interacts with the oblique sliding plane ( 5 ) on one side and has the toothing system ( 12 ) on an other side. 6. The delivery unit as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that, the rotor ( 3 ) has, in troughs of the toothily, system ( 12 ), through openings ( 23 ) to an other side.
