Abstract
Abstract A plural piston pump is provided wherein the pistons are carried in bores in a body or hub on a radial plane surrounding an actuating cam and wherein a common pulsator chamber is provided comprised of axial recesses in the hub intermediate the pistons communicates with an annular channel in the hub. The arrangement provides a compact form of pump consisting essentially of a hub member externally sealed in a cylindrical housing open at its ends. The hub is provided with inlet and outlet ports, thus eliminating the need for housing ports and housing end pieces or closures and a relatively large pressure or pulsator chamber volume is formed for smoothing out pump pulsations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
143 words
In a multipiston pump having a hub encompassed by a housing and said hub having a plurality of angularly spaced pumps spaced around a central axis thereof; the improvement which comprises; said hub having a common pulsator chamber extending therearound connecting directly to said pumps and being recessed from the hub exterior into said hub; said hub having additional pulsator chamber volumes recessed therein from the exterior thereof intermediate said pumps and merging with said common pulsator chamber to effect an increase in pulsator chamber volume; said housing encompassing said hub and peripherally closing said common pulsator chamber and said additional pulsator chamber volumes; said hub having an inlet communicating with said pumps and an outlet communicating with said common pulsator chamber; said common pulsator chamber communicating with said additional pulsator chamber volumes and being located between said outlet and said pulsator chambers.
