Abstract

A vane cell machine ( 1 ) is described comprising a stator ( 2 ) and a rotor ( 3 ), said rotor ( 3 ) having radially displaceable vanes ( 4 ) bearing on an inside ( 5 ) of the stator ( 2 ) and bordering, together with the rotor ( 3 ), the stator ( 2 ), and a side wall ( 7 ) at each axial end of the rotor ( 3 ), work chambers ( 6 ) the volume of which changes during a rotation of said rotor, at least one side wall ( 7 ) bearing an insert in form of a ring ( 9 ). Such a machine should be of simple construction. To this end, said ring ( 9 ) comprises a centric bore ( 10 ).

Claims (25)

1. A vane cell pump comprising:

a stator; and

a rotor;

wherein said rotor having radially displaceable vanes bearing on an inside of the stator and bordering, together with the rotor, the stator, and a side wall at each axial end of the rotor, at least one side wall bearing an insert in form of a ring; and

wherein said ring comprises a centric bore;

wherein an auxiliary element is located radially outside said ring and extends no more than 180° in circumferential direction of said ring; and

wherein the auxiliary element is arranged between the at least one side wall bearing the insert and the rotor, the auxiliary element being fixed to the at least one side wall bearing the insert.

2. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein said auxiliary element comprises a width in radial direction of said rotor decreasing in circumferential direction starting from a central part.

3. The vane cell pump according to claim 2 , wherein said auxiliary element has a length in circumferential direction which is greater than a width of said vanes in circumferential direction.

4. The vane cell pump according to claim 2 , wherein said auxiliary element has a length in circumferential direction which is greater than a distance between two vanes in circumferential direction.

5. The vane cell pump according to claim 2 , wherein in radial direction said auxiliary element has a predetermined distance to said ring.

6. The vane cell pump according to claim 2 , wherein said auxiliary element protrudes out of said at least one side wall.

7. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein said auxiliary element has a length in circumferential direction which is greater than a width of said vanes in circumferential direction.

8. The vane cell pump according to claim 7 , wherein said auxiliary element has a length in circumferential direction which is greater than a distance between two vanes in circumferential direction.

9. The vane cell pump according to claim 7 , wherein in radial direction said auxiliary element has a predetermined distance to said ring.

10. The vane cell pump according to claim 7 , wherein said auxiliary element protrudes out of said at least one side wall.

11. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein said auxiliary element has a length in circumferential direction which is greater than a distance between two vanes in circumferential direction.

12. The vane cell pump according to claim 11 , wherein in radial direction said auxiliary element has a predetermined distance to said ring.

13. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein in radial direction said auxiliary element has a predetermined distance to said ring.

14. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein said auxiliary element protrudes out of said at least one side wall.

15. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein a ring channel is located on a side of said ring opposite said rotor, said ring channel being connected to a high pressure region of the vane cell pump.

16. The vane cell pump according to claim 15 , wherein a first sealing ring is located in said ring channel, wherein said first sealing ring generates a force onto said ring in a direction towards said rotor.

17. The vane cell pump according to claim 15 , wherein a second sealing ring is positioned on a circumferential side of said ring.

18. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein said rotor comprises a support ring bearing against said ring.

19. The vane cell pump according to claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary element is in contact with the at least one side wall bearing the insert and the rotor.
