    摘要: A vacuum pump includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, at least one rotor arranged in the housing configured to convey a gaseous medium from the inlet to the outlet, a motor configured to rotate the rotor, a control device connected to the motor configured to control the motor, and at least one sensor connected to the control device. The at least one sensor is configured to sense at least one operating parameter of the vacuum pump. The control device comprises a correlation module. The correlation module is configured to correlate the sensed at least one operating parameter with at least one critical parameter. The motor is controlled on the basis of the at least one critical parameter.

    摘要: A pair of intermeshing gears for multi-shaft vacuum pumps, comprising a first running gear and a second running gear is provided, wherein at least the first running gear comprises a first and a second gearwheel, respectively. The first and the second gearwheel are axially arranged in direct contact, wherein the first gearwheel comprises a predetermined number of first cogs of same dimension and the second gearwheel comprises a predetermined number of second cogs, wherein the predetermined number of second cogs is at least one. All of the predetermined number of first cogs have a dimension larger than the dimension of the predetermined number of second cogs to a predetermined amount. The first gearwheel is made of a material with a first elastic modulus. The second gearwheel is made of a material with a second elastic modulus, wherein the first and the second elastic modulus are different.

    摘要: A dry vacuum pump has a stator (2) and two rotors (5) that are accommodated in at least one compression chamber (3) of the stator (2), the rotors (5) being configured to rotate synchronously in opposite directions so as to drive a gas to be pumped between an intake and a delivery of the vacuum pump. The rotors (5) and the compression chamber (3) of the stator (2) are coated with a nickel-phosphorus coating (11) comprising between 9% and 14% phosphorus and having a thickness greater than 20 μm, the nickel-phosphorus coating (11) having undergone a hardening heat treatment comprising a step of heating to a treatment temperature greater than 250° C. for a treatment duration greater than one hour, so as to have a hardness greater than 700 HV.

    摘要: A control system comprising: a suction line; an exhaust line; an operating liquid line; a liquid ring pump comprising a suction input coupled to the suction line, an exhaust output coupled to the exhaust line, and a liquid input coupled to the operating liquid line; a pump configured to pump operating liquid into the liquid ring pump via the operating liquid line and the liquid input; a motor configured to drive the pump; a first sensor configured to measure a first parameter, the first parameter being a parameter of an exhaust fluid of the liquid ring pump; a second sensor configured to measure a second parameter, the second parameter being a parameter of a fluid received by the liquid ring pump; and a controller operatively coupled to the first sensor, the second sensor, and the motor, and configured to control the motor based on sensor measurements of the first sensor and the second sensor. The control system advantageously tends to reduce or eliminate the wear caused by cavitations.

    摘要: A system is provided for generating vacuum in a vehicle. The system includes a vacuum pump, an engagement clutch, an actuator, and a torque limiting clutch. The engagement clutch operatively connects a camshaft to the rotor. The actuator controls the clutch. The actuator is movable, based on air pressure in a vacuum conduit, between a low-pressure position in which the actuator causes the clutch to operatively disconnect the camshaft from the rotor, and a high-pressure position in which the actuator causes the clutch to operatively connect the camshaft to the rotor. The torque limiting clutch limits torque transfer to the rotor when the engagement clutch operatively connects the camshaft to the rotor. The system also provides control for hysteresis.
