Abstract (en)

[origin: US6241490B1] A multirotor vacuum pump including a housing, at least two rotors located in the housing and cooperating with each other so that as a result of a contactless movement of the at least two rotors relative to each other, working chambers, into which a to-be-pumped gas is fed, are formed, with at least one of the at least two rotors being hollow, and a drive formed as an external rotor motor having its rotor elements arranged on an inner surface of the at least two rotors, and stator elements fixedly mounted inside the at least one of the at least two rotors opposite the rotor elements.
