Abstract
A rotary vane pump is disclosed which comprises a cylindrical housing, and a cylindrical rotor eccentrically mounted for rotation within the housing. The rotor includes a slot mounting a pair of oppositely oriented hook-shaped vanes, so as to define a hook space adjacent each end of the overlying vanes. A fluid, such as lubricating oil, is delivered to each hook space during that portion of its rotation shortly before its bottom dead center position, and the delivered fluid is pressurized during that portion of its rotation shortly after its bottom dead center position to assist in moving each vane outwardly from its bottom dead center position.
