Abstract A screw pump having a unit which includes a drive screw and at least one impeller screw that meshes therewith, arranged within a casing that sealingly encloses the screws, each impeller screw on the pressure side being provided with a pin mounted in a sleeve, the interior of which communicates with the suction side through channels in a pump housing and the drive screw. There is a disc-like packing between an end surface of each sleeve and an end wall that closes the pressure side of the housing, through which end wall the channels partially extend, and through which a drive shaft is extended for the drive screw. The invention provides that each sleeve has one or more deformation zones on a side thereof remote from the packing, and facing a fixed surface in the housing, which zones are arranged to abut the fixed surface in the housing.
A screw pump having a screw unit which comprises a drive screw (9i) and at least one impeller screw (9b) meshing therewith, a housing 19) sealingly enclosing said screws; said impeller screws on the pressue side of the pump being provided with pins (21) mounted in sleeves (22), the interiors of which communicate with the suction side of the pump through channels (28, 29, 31, 32) in said pump housing and in said drive screw; to relieve axial forces on said impeller screws; a disc-like packing (35) mounted between an end surface of each sleeve and an end wall (2) of said housing which said wall closes the pressure side of said housing, through which end wall and packing said channels partially extend, and through which a drive shaft (10) for said drive screw is extended; wherein said sleeves are provided with at least one deformation zone (39) on sides thereof remote from said packing, and facing a fixed surface in said housing, the zones being arranged to abut and seal said fixed surface in the housing.
