Abstract (en)

A multi-stage Roots pump has a plurality of parallel pump chambers formed in the casing thereof. Each pump chamber has a pair of rotors arranged therein for rotation to effect a pumping action, an intake port and an exhaust port. Exhaust ports of pump chambers of the preceding stages are connected to intake ports of pump chambers of the succeeding stages through communication holes, one after another, in series. The communication hole extends across an imaginary plane that include the axes of shafts and is perforated in the casing between the shafts so that the communication hole does not contact the shafts. <IMAGE>
