Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of external gear pump technology, and is particularly applicable to external gear pumps operating at high speeds. Background Technology

[0002] External gear pumps, due to their simple structure and low manufacturing cost, are often used as the power source for hydraulic systems in mobile machinery. Their efficiency is crucial to the energy utilization efficiency of fluid transmission systems. The volumetric efficiency loss of external gear pumps can generally be attributed to two parts: leakage loss and oil suction efficiency loss. Oil suction efficiency loss can be further divided into two categories: one is due to the internal structure of the flow channel affecting oil flow, generating local vortices, and increasing gear suction resistance; the other is that when the external gear pump disengages, under the action of centrifugal force, the oil is thrown out of the gear cavity, thus reducing the filling rate in the gear cavity. Currently, there are two methods to improve gear oil suction efficiency. One is to optimize the flow channel structure of the diffuser section of the pump body's suction cavity, reducing local vortices during the flow process to reduce suction flow resistance. Its disadvantage is that it cannot solve the problem of suction resistance caused by gear centrifugal force. The other method is to install a suction booster device before the hydraulic pump, which increases the inlet pressure of the gear pump, thereby increasing the filling rate of the gear cavity. Its disadvantages are that the series structure is limited by the installation method, the manufacturing cost increases, and it cannot eliminate the oil suction resistance of the gear pump.
