ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic wheel, more specifically a hydraulic energy converting device, having an inner stator provided with a peripheral camming surface and a rotor, enclosing the stator, and being rotatably mounted relative thereto; the rotor being adapted to cooperate with the camming surface of the stator to define a plurality of liquid-tight working chambers between the camming surface and the stator. Each working chamber has an inlet at one end and an outlet at the other end, the stator having a pressurized liquid distribution system to distribute pressurized liquid from an outer source to the respective inlet of each working chamber and a liquid collection system, independent of the distribution system, adapted to collect liquid from the respective outlet of each working chamber and direct it to the said outer source. A plurality of reciprocating vanes are slidably mounted in the rotor for radial inward movement, a longitudinal edge of each vane remote from the rotor being biased against the camming surface by springs, the vanes being adapted to separate the working chambers into liquid-tight sections whereby pressurized liquid entering into each working chamber through its respective inlet strikes the vanes and transmits a force thereto capable of rotating the rotor while liquid on the side of said vanes opposite that being struck urging the liquid within the working chamber toward the outlet end thereof.
