Abstract
High contact stress between the vane tips and the cam ring is one of the main obstacles to improve the working pressure of a water hydraulic vane pump. A pressure-reducing valve for regulating the bottom pressure of the vanes at the pump suction zone is presented in this paper. Through optimization and simulation, it is found that the throttle structure has great influence on the dynamic performance of the pressure-reducing valve, and the triangular-rectangular groove is proved to be more suitable for the valve among all the investigated grooves. The theoretical analysis results show that the use of the pressure reducing valve can obviously reduce the contact forces between the cam ring and the vanes at the suction zone of the pump. The work in this research provides a feasible solution to improve the working pressure of a water hydraulic vane pump.
