An arrangement for supporting one or more bearings of a crankshaft assembly of a hydraulic fracturing pump includes a frame and one or more bearing supports. The frame is of a first material and defines one or more bearing support profiles. The bearing supports are of a second material different from the first material of the frame. The bearing supports are cast-in-place within the corresponding bearing support profiles of the frame and are configured to be in contact with an outer race of the corresponding bearings of the crankshaft assembly. Compared to the first material of the frame, the second material of the bearing supports is more effective at preventing slippage of the bearings.

Arrangement for supporting crankshaft bearings in hydraulic fracturing pump

A method of manufacturing a fluid end block for a high pressure reciprocating pump, including forming, from a single-piece forging of a steel alloy, a main body having an outwardly facing body forward face, an outwardly facing body rear face opposite the body forward face, and opposing side surfaces connecting the forward face and the rear face, and a plurality of chambers; forming a web portion protruding outwardly from the outwardly facing body forward face, the web portion having an outwardly facing web forward face and a curvilinear side surface; forming a plurality of bosses protruding from the web forward face and having a forward facing end; and forming a plunger bore extending through each of the plurality of bosses from the forward facing end of the respective boss to one of the plurality of chambers in the main body portion, each plunger bore configured to receive a reciprocating plunger.

Method of manufacturing a fluid end block with integrated web portion

A fluid cylinder for a reciprocating pump includes a body having inlet, outlet, and plunger bores. The inlet and outlet bores extend coaxially along a fluid passage axis. The plunger bore extends along a plunger bore axis that extends at an angle relative to the fluid passage axis. The body includes a crossbore at the intersection of the fluid passage axis and the plunger bore axis. The crossbore intersects the inlet, outlet, and plunger bores at respective inlet, outlet, and plunger bore ends. The inlet bore end and outlet bore ends are connected to the plunger bore end at respective first and second corners of the crossbore. The first corner includes a first linear bridge segment connected to the inlet and plunger bore ends by corresponding curved segments. The second corner includes a second linear bridge segment connected to the outlet and plunger bore ends by corresponding curved segments.

Fluid end crossbore

A fluid end block for attachment to a power end of a high pressure reciprocating pump includes a main body portion having an outwardly facing body forward face, an outwardly facing body rear face opposite the body forward face, and opposing side surfaces. A web portion protrudes outwardly from the outwardly facing body forward face. The web portion may have an outwardly facing web forward face and a curvilinear side surface. The web portion may be integral with the main body portion. A plurality of bosses protrude from the web forward face and having a forward facing end. The plurality of bosses may be integral with the main body portion and the web portion. A plunger bore extends through one of the plurality of bosses configured to receive a reciprocating plunger.
