Abstract:
An expander-compressor unit (10) includes a two-stage rotary expansion mechanism (3) having a first cylinder (41) and a second cylinder (42). In the expansion mechanism (3), a suction port (71) facing a working chamber on the upstream side in the first cylinder (41) and a discharge port facing a working chamber on the downstream side in the second cylinder (42) are formed. An intermediate plate (43) is provided between the first cylinder (41) and the second cylinder (42). In the intermediate plate (43), a communication passage (43a) for allowing communication between a working chamber on the downstream side in the first cylinder (41) and a working chamber on the upstream side in the second cylinder (42) is formed. The communication passage (43a) does not communicate with the working chamber in the first cylinder (41) during the suction process, and communicates with the downstream working chamber in the first cylinder (41) at or after the end of the suction process.

The invention relates to an adjustable coolant pump for internal combustion engines. The object of the invention is to develop a continuously adjustable coolant pump for motor vehicles, driven by a hydraulic motor/oil motor, wherein the pump enables increased cooling output nearly without any power limitation, and further simultaneously having high overall efficiency, yet requiring only minimized space at a minimized dead weight, and at the same time can be produced in a simple and cost-effective manner, and further operates at very high ambient temperatures in a reliable and error-free manner. The adjustable coolant pump according to the invention, comprising a pump housing (1), an impeller (3) that is disposed at one end on a pump shaft (2) in the pump housing (1) in a rotationally fixed manner, wherein the end of the pump shaft (2) opposite of the impeller (3) protrudes in an oil motor (4), and a gearwheel pair is disposed in the oil motor (4) such that one of the two gearwheels (J) is disposed on the pump shaft (2) in a rotationally fixed manner, wherein the pump shaft (2) is pivotably mounted on both sides of the gearwheel (7) both in the oil motor housing (5) and in the cover (6) in bearings (8), is characterized in that, among others, the second gearwheel (7) is pivotably and displaceably supported on an axis (9), which is disposed in the oil motor housing (5) in a rotationally fixed manner, wherein in the oil motor housing (5) at least one sleeve (29) equipped with an inlet screen (28) is provided, the sleeve ending at one end, opposite of the supply element connected to the oil supply, in the wheel chamber (27) connected to the oil supply, and closes flush with this wheel chamber (27). The opposite end of the sleeve (29) protrudes in the spring chamber of the piston working chamber (15) remaining behind the working piston (16) even with a completely compressed pressure spring (17), and a valve seat (22) is disposed in the front of the cover (21) such that the seat cuts both the piston working chamber (15) and the pressure relief chamber (20), wherein a valve piston (23) is disposed in this valve seat (22) in a sealing manner, wherein the piston can be displaced by translatory motion in the valve seat (22) by means of a lifting magnet (24) disposed on the outside of the front of the cover (21).

Abstract:
An oil supply passage (68) is formed inside a rotating shaft (56) of a compression mechanism (2f). An oil supply passage (38) is formed inside a rotating shaft (36) of an expansion mechanism (22). A boss portion (81) is provided at a lower end of the rotating shaft (56). A shaft portion (82) that is engaged in the boss portion (81) is provided at an upper end of the rotating shaft (36). The circumference of a coupling part (80), which includes the boss portion (81) and the shaft portion (82) is covered by an upper bearing (42) of the expansion mechanism (22). The upper bearing (42) supports both the rotating shaft (36) and the rotating shaft (56).
Abstract:
A hydrostatic transmission (34, 35) including a variable displacement pump (56) including an input shaft (40) and a pump cylinder barrel rotatably coupled to the input shaft, the pump cylinder barrel having a plurality of cylinder chambers arranged in parallel with other and distributed about the input shaft axis of rotation. Each cylinder chamber has a reciprocating piston therein which bears against a pivotable swashplate, the displacement of the pump being varied in response to changes in the position of the swashplate. A gerotor motor (66) is attached to the pump and has an output shaft (128). The motor includes an engaged pair of inner (120) and outer (118) members, the outer member being eccentric relative to the inner member. The inner member is rotatably driven relative to the outer member by fluid received between the inner and outer members from the pump, the inner member being drivingly connected to the output shaft. A plurality of fluid conduits (58, 60) extend between the pump to the motor, through which the motor is in fluid communication with the pump.
Abstract:
Described is a method of producing solutions of cellulose in water-containing tertiary-amine-N-oxides by preparing a mixture containing cellulose, water and tertiary-amine-N-oxides and subsequently reducing the water content of the mixture. In a first step, the mixture is heated under a pressure which is above the partial pressure of the water in the mixture and in a second step the pressure on the mixture is released, thus allowing water to evaporateoff.
