Abstract
A vane cell pump comprises a contour ring having an inner peripheral face and a rotatable rotor which has a plurality of conveying elements displaceable radially relative to a rotation axis. The inner peripheral face includes a plurality of pump portions each constructed with an intake region and a pressure region which are passed through by the conveying elements during rotation of the rotor. A narrow location at which the conveying elements are displaced radially inward toward the rotation axis to a greatest extent, is located between a pressure region and a subsequent intake region. By applying a part-stroke, an auxiliary start contour which is arranged between the rotation axis and the inner peripheral face radially inside the conveying elements in the region of at least one pump portion displaces the conveying elements to the greatest extent radially inwardly.
