Abstract
Abstract Displacement slurry pump equipped with known piston-rod drive, in which on a piston rod expediently three pistons are arranged at a distance of at least one stroke length, they are a liquid piston moving the auxiliary liquid free of solid matter, and on both sides thereof a slurry piston each moving on one side the slurry, on the other side, however, the auxiliary liquid. The liquid piston fits sealed to the liquid cylinder provided with liquid suction valves, whereas the two slurry pistons fit by slot to the slurry cylinders provided with slurry suction valves and slurry delivery valves. The effective section of the liquid cylinder is larger than the effective section of a slurry cylinder each. The slurry pump may be of single-operation or of double-operation, of one-cylinder or two-cylinder or three-cylinder construction. During the operation, at the delivery stroke of the slurry cylinder, auxiliary liquid is pressed from the liquid cylinder through the aperture between the slurry cylinder and slurry piston, preventing thus the slurry from flowing in between the slurry piston and the slurry cylinder, thus the life of these latters will increase.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
247 words
A displacement slurry pump comprising a cylinder having, in coaxial arrangement, a slurry section and an auxiliary liquid section with a diameter greater than that of said slurry section, a reciprocating piston rod in said cylinder carrying a slurry piston in the slurry section with a diameter such that an aperture remains between the periphery of the piston and the wall of the slurry section, and an auxiliary liquid piston with a diameter providing a sealed fitting in the auxiliary liquid section of said cylinder, said slurry piston and said auxiliary liquid piston being separated on said piston rod by at least one stroke length, said auxiliary liquid section being provided adjacent the slurry section with valved means for introducing auxiliary liquid at a pressure greater than the slurry inlet pressure, said slurry section being closed at its end farthest from said auxiliary liquid section and provided adjacent said end with valved slurry inlet means and valved slurry outlet means, said piston rod passing through packing gland means in said closed end of said slurry section, flange means attached to the inner wall of said closed end of said slurry section, thereby forming an auxiliary liquid compartment in said slurry section, said flange means being provided with an aperture larger than the cross-section of said piston rod through which said piston rod passes relatively loosely, and external valved duct means connecting said auxiliary liquid compartment with said auxiliary liquid section at a locus adjacent the slurry section.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
247 words
A displacement slurry pump comprising a cylinder having, in coaxial arrangement, a slurry section and an auxiliary liquid section with a diameter greater than that of said slurry section, a reciprocating piston rod in said cylinder carrying a slurry piston in the slurry section with a diameter such that an aperture remains between the periphery of the piston and the wall of the slurry section, and an auxiliary liquid piston with a diameter providing a sealed fitting in the auxiliary liquid section of said cylinder, said slurry piston and said auxiliary liquid piston being separated on said piston rod by at least one stroke length, said auxiliary liquid section being provided adjacent the slurry section with valved means for introducing auxiliary liquid at a pressure greater than the slurry inlet pressure, said slurry section being closed at its end farthest from said auxiliary liquid section and provided adjacent said end with valved slurry inlet means and valved slurry outlet means, said piston rod passing through packing gland means in said closed end of said slurry section, flange means attached to the inner wall of said closed end of said slurry section, thereby forming an auxiliary liquid compartment in said slurry section, said flange means being provided with an aperture larger than the cross-section of said piston rod through which said piston rod passes relatively loosely, and external valved duct means connecting said auxiliary liquid compartment with said auxiliary liquid section at a locus adjacent the slurry section.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim

A multiple cylinder pumping system comprising a plurality of interconnected pumps as defined in claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
263 words
A displacement slurry pump according to claim 1 wherein a second slurry section is provided in said cylinder on the other side of said auxiliary liquid section from said slurry section, said second slurry section having a diameter smaller than that of said auxiliary liquid section, and a second slurry piston is provided on said piston rod in said second slurry section, said second slurry piston having a diameter such that an aperture remains between the periphery of the piston and the wall of said second slurry section, said second slurry piston and said auxiliary liquid piston being separated on said piston rod by at least one stroke length, said auxiliary liquid section also being provided adjacent said second slurry section with valved means for introducing auxiliary liquid at a pressure greater than the slurry inlet pressure, said second slurry section being closed at its end farthest from said auxiliary liquid section and provided adjacent said end with valved slurry inlet means and valved slurry outlet means, said piston rod passing through packing gland means in the closed end of said second slurry section, flange means attached to the inner walls of the closed end of said second slurry section, thereby forming an auxiliary liquid compartment in said second slurry section, said flange means being provided with an aperture larger than the cross-section of said piston rod through which said piston rod passes relatively loosely, and external valved duct means connected the auxiliary liquid compartment in said second slurry section with said auxiliary liquid section at a locus adjacent said second slurry section.
