ABSTRACT:
A mechanical rotary vane vacuum pump has high and low vacuum stages for a pumped gas. Each stage includes a rotor for vanes cyclically driven about a common axis that is eccentric to a cylinder of a stator; the stator of each stage includes an inlet and outlet for the pumped gas. An oil seal between inlets and outlets for each stage is in a narrow gap between the stator and rotor. An interstage structure includes a flow path between the stages for the pumped gases and a shaft drivingly connected the rotors of the stages. An oil flow path comprises a first passage through the interstage structure leading radially to the shaft. The shaft includes diametrically opposed oil metering flats or cavities longitudinally aligned with an outlet of the first passage. A second passage through the interstage structure is longitudinally aligned with the cavities and leads tangentially from the peripheries of the shaft and a bore for the shaft. The second passage is in fluid flow relation with the cylinder of the low vacuum stage so oil metered by the cavities bursts into the second passage and flows to the cylinder of the low vacuum stage to form the oil seal and lubricate surfaces between the rotor and stator.
