ABSTRACT:
A gear pump constructed in such a manner that bearing bushings are pressedly inserted in bushing insertion holes for supporting gear shafts therein, side plate are arranged on both sides of gears, and a part of hydraulic oil in a suction chamber is circulated through a lubricating oil introduction passage formed on an inside of each of the bearing bushings and a lubricating oil return passage formed on an outside of each of the bearing bushings. The lubricating oil return passages have outlets positioned in a manner to be laterally symmetric on the basis of a vertical line defined by connecting centers of the gear shafts and vertically symmetric on the basis of a horizontal line extending through a center of the vertical line and perpendicular to the vertical line. The side plates each are formed with a through-hole which is positioned on one side of the vertical line so as to be communicated to both outlets of the lubricating return passages vertically symmetric on the basis of the horizontal line. Also, the side plates are formed with cutouts for communicating the inlets of the lubricating oil introduction passages to the suction chamber. Thus, the gear pump accomplishes a variation of a direction of rotation of the pump by merely rotating the side plates by an angle of 180 degrees without replacing any parts.
