ABSTRACT:
In a sliding vane type of rotary pump usable for power steering systems a seal of hour glass shape is provided between the flow directing plate, on the outlet side of the vane rotor and the outlet pressure chamber, to confine exposure of the high pressure of the outlet chamber to the downstream side of the plate within a predetermined area only partially balanced by exposure of the upstream side to such high pressure and to also isolate suction passages from the outlet chamber pressure. The result is a flexing of the flow directing plate at the center toward the pump rotor to reduce rotary clearance and permit the use of thinner and lighter weight flow directing plates.
