A rotary pump for delivering fluid includes: a pump housing having a low-pressure inlet and a high-pressure outlet for the fluid to be delivered; and a delivery rotor rotatable about a rotational axis in the pump housing and including a rotor base body and multiple deliverers distributed over the circumference of the rotor base body for delivering fluid from the low-pressure inlet to the high-pressure outlet. When the delivery rotor rotates, the radial and axial outer edges of the deliverers define a delivery region of the pump. The pump includes a flow channeling structure protruding axially into the low-pressure inlet in relation to the rotational axis of the delivery rotor from the pump housing wall in order to influence fluid flowing in the low-pressure inlet. The flow channeling structure arranged axially next to the delivery region and overlaps at least in portions with the delivery region in the radial direction.

Flow channeling structure

A pump-motor unit for delivering a fluid, for example gear oil and/or lubricating oil in motor vehicles, includes: a housing having a housing cover, an intermediate housing structure and a motor cover, wherein the housing cover and the intermediate housing structure define a delivery chamber axially on both end-facing sides and circumferentially in the radial direction; a delivery device featuring a delivery member, which can be rotated within the delivery chamber, for delivering the fluid; and a drive motor which is connected to the delivery device via a drive shaft, wherein the housing cover forms an accommodating well, and the drive motor and the intermediate housing structure are arranged in the accommodating well.

Pump-motor unit comprising an integrative housing cover

A rotary pump includes: a pump housing having a low-pressure inlet and a high-pressure outlet; a delivery rotor rotatable about a rotational axis and including multiple deliverers distributed over the circumference of the rotor for delivering a fluid from the low-pressure inlet to the high-pressure outlet; and a setting element for adjusting the delivery volume of the pump. The inlet end of the setting element includes a first circumferential portion which extends circumferentially in the rotational direction of the rotor and the axial width of which is smaller than the axial width of the deliverers and a second circumferential portion which adjoins the first circumferential portion in the rotational direction and the axial width of which is greater than the axial width of the first circumferential portion.

Rotary pump comprising an adjusting device

A pump which exhibits an adjustable delivery volume, the pump including (a) a pump housing comprising a delivery chamber; (b) a delivery rotor which can be rotated about a rotary axis within the delivery chamber, for delivering the fluid; (c) an adjusting device, including: (c1) an adjusting member which can be adjusted in the pump housing in order to adjust the delivery volume of the pump; (c2) a first setting chamber for generating a first setting pressure for adjusting the adjusting member; (c3) and a second setting chamber for generating a second setting pressure for adjusting the adjusting member; (d) a fluidically operable valve for adjusting the setting pressure of the first setting chamber; (e) and an electromagnetic valve, comprising: a pressure port for a setting fluid which is diverted from the high-pressure side; and a relief port for the setting fluid.
