Internal gear pump
Provided is an internal gear pump. The shape of any one of a plurality of external teeth and a plurality of internal teeth of the pump is formed on the basis of formulae (1)-(5). r=ro−dr ·cos θ, Formula (1): Px =( ro−dr )+1/4 dr {1−cos(2θ)}, Formula (2): Py =1/4 dr {−2θ+sin(2θ)}, Formula (3): Qx=Px−r ·cos θ, Formula (4): Qy=Py+r ·sin θ Formula (5):.
1. An internal gear pump that accommodates: a ring-shaped internally toothed gear provided with a plurality of internal teeth, and an externally toothed gear provided with a plurality of external teeth which internally mesh with the plurality of internal teeth of the internally toothed gear, the externally toothed gear being eccentrically disposed inside the internally toothed gear, the number of the plurality of internal teeth being one greater than the number of the plurality of external teeth,
wherein, in any one of the plurality of external teeth and the plurality of internal teeth, a tooth tip section and a meshing section are formed by a curve having one continuous curvature, the curve being formed by Formulae (1) to (5) below with which a minimum curvature is at an apex of a tooth tip, and the curvature gradually increases towards a tooth bottom.
r=ro−dr· cos θ, Formula (1):
Px= ( ro−dr )+1/4 dr{ 1−cos(2θ)}, Formula (2):
Py= 1/4 dr{− 2θ+sin(2θ)}, Formula (3):
Qx=Px−r· cos θ, and Formula (4):
Qy=Py+r· sin θ, Formula (5):
where
r is a radius of a curve,

Px is an X coordinate of a trajectory center,
Py is a Y coordinate of the trajectory center,
Qx is an X coordinate of a point on a curve generated by the trajectory center (Px, Py), and
