    摘要: A high pressure homogenizer for flowable substances charged with particles, having a high pressure chamber and a homogenizer unit that is located fluidically downstream thereof and, by swirling, expands the fluid to be homogenized which has previously been brought to a pressure of more than 500 bar in the high pressure chamber, and a plunger pump associated with the homogenizer unit, the plunger of which plunger pump pressurizes the high pressure chamber, wherein the high pressure homogenizer has a low pressure chamber which surrounds the plunger shaft to cool the plunger and which has an operating pressure of PN≤25 bar, wherein the low pressure chamber and the high pressure chamber are separated from each other by a seal which is penetrated by the plunger, the seal being a throttle gap which is formed between the plunger shaft and a bushing that does not contact the plunger shaft, the ratio S/L of the length to the radial annular gap height of the throttle gap being ≤0.0015.

    摘要: A pump or combination pump/mixer device is disclosed. The pump or pump/mixer uses moving diaphragms in combination with check valves to pump and/or mix fluid. A main inlet is located at the top of the pump and is fed by a vessel or container that contains fluid. The fluid, in response to the moving diaphragms, passes through an outer chamber into a plurality of lower chambers and then into a central chamber where the fluid then exits via one or more outlets. A series of check-valves are used to ensure one-way flow of fluid through the chambers. The drive shaft of a motor or drive unit drives a nutating disk or wobble plate that actuates the diaphragms to drive fluid through the device. In the pump/mixer configuration, one or more additional inlets are provided to input additional fluids into the device for mixing within the inside of the pump/mixer.

    摘要: A submersible aeration apparatus includes an air passage formed on a pump chamber to draw air into the pump chamber. A suction port formed on a lower side of the pump chamber draws liquid into the pump chamber. An impeller draws air through the air passage and liquid through the suction port. An ejection passage ejects the air and liquid. The impeller includes a main plate portion to cover a connection port connecting the air passage to the pump chamber. A vane portion protrudes downward from a lower surface of the main plate portion on the suction port side. The main plate portion has a cut-out part connecting the air passage and the pump chamber, and a groove part recessed from an upper surface of the main plate portion toward the lower surface and extending from an inner peripheral side toward an outer peripheral side of the main plate portion.
