Abstract
The invention pertains to a lightweight and concise vaccum pump particularly suitable for servicing refrigeration systems. One end of a cylindrical electric motor casing is enclosed by a substantially cylindrical adapter upon which a pump assembly is mounted. The motor armature shaft extends through the adapter and the pump rotor is directly mounted thereon. A hollow shell affixed to the adapter encompasses the pump assembly defining a chamber thereabout which includes a lubrication sump. A synthetic plastic handle assembly attaches to the motor casing and includes a capacitor housing and a base is affixed to the lower side of the casing. Except for the handle and base the pump is of a substantially cylindrical configuration of a diameter similar to that of the motor casing, and the pump assembly includes lubrication and exhaust features which provide improved pumping conditions.
