Abstract
Abstract A pump casing for high pressure pumps is composed of two halves each half being provided with a liner. The two casing halves are joined by flanges which are recessed to receive corresponding flanges of the liners. At least one groove is provided in the recess formed by the casing flanges to receive and retain part of the liner flange material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
98 words
A high pressure internally lined pump casing adapted to receive an impeller and split in halves in a plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the impeller, said casing halves including flanges with mating faces around the peripheries of said flanges, said mating faces being stepped, two liner halves of elastomeric material having flanges extending into the stepped mating faces, each of said stepped faces having a circumferential undercut groove therein and clamping means at the circumference of said faces for clamping said casing flanges together to displace material from said liner flanges into said grooves.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
98 words
A high pressure internally lined pump casing adapted to receive an impeller and split in halves in a plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the impeller, said casing halves including flanges with mating faces around the peripheries of said flanges, said mating faces being stepped, two liner halves of elastomeric material having flanges extending into the stepped mating faces, each of said stepped faces having a circumferential undercut groove therein and clamping means at the circumference of said faces for clamping said casing flanges together to displace material from said liner flanges into said grooves.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
82 words
A pump casing as claimed in claim 1 wherein said liner halves are initially shaped to leave said undercut grooves empty, said grooves being filled with elastomeric material displaced from said liner flanges after clamping of the casing flanges by said clamping means, said grooves being dimensioned to constitute a space means of sufficient size for receiving the elastomeric material displaced from the liner flanges and preventing flow of elastomeric material inwardly thereby preventing distortion at the interior surfaces of the liners.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A pump casing as claimed in claim 2 wherein said casing halves and liner halves are split along a common longitudinal plane.
