Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A two stage pump ( 2′, 4′ ), where the high pressure stage ( 4 ′) is a gear pump ( 11, 12 ), comprises a driving of the other stage ( 2 ′) by a support shaft ( 74 ), mounted in the driven pinion ( 12 ), the shaft ( 74 ) being driven by the drive shaft ( 21 ), by means of a pair of toothed wheels ( 77, 79 ) adjacent to the rest of the stage ( 4 ′), which can allow different rotation speeds between the two stages ( 2′, 4′ ). The support shaft ( 74 ) may be supported by stops and hydrodynamic bearings, directly integrated and lubricated in the driven pinion, which make the design lighter and more compact. The shaft ( 74 ) and the toothed wheels ( 77, 79 ) ingeniously transmit the loads from the stage ( 2 ′) to the stage ( 4 ′) in such a way as to cancel out the usual hydraulic loads, stemming from pressure, and mechanical, forces stemming from rotational drivings on the driven pinion ( 12 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Two stage pump including a first pump having a rotating pumping element driven by a support shaft, a second pump including two pumping pinions meshing together, the two pumping pinions including a driving pinion and a driven pinion, a drive shaft of the driving pinion extending along a longitudinal axis, and a transmission connecting the driving pinion to the support shaft, the transmission being contained in the second pump, the support shaft being coa…
