Abstract
An improvement in liquid pumps having a piston with a packing surface which reciprocates in contact with a cylinder, comprising means for increasing the life of the packing by transmitting thereto a small portion of the liquid being pumped, for absorption thereby to cool and lubricate the frictional interface. The structure includes a groove in the piston head and an annular member of flexible material having inherent lubricity which continuously engages the cylinder, but is smaller in cross-section than the groove so that at each reversal of the piston a tortuous passage is briefly opened past the member through the groove.
