Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006087038A1] The invention relates to a volumetric rotary machine (1) comprising a housing (2) and at least two twin rotors (3, 4) that have asymmetric profiles each having at least one helicoidal thread (7) that, in a direction radial to the longitudinal axis (6) of the one considered of the twin rotors (3, 4) and above the surface (51) of this rotor, has a first predetermined dimension ( h ) and, on the one hand, a first flank (9) has a modified curve. This volumetric rotary machine (1) comprising a housing (2) and at least two twin rotors (3, 4) having asymmetric profiles, is characterized in that these twin rotors (3, 4) are each comprised of a hub (5) from which at least one helicoidal thread (7) projects that extends above said hub (5) like a tooth (8). This tooth (8), in a direction radial to the longitudinal axis (6) of the one considered of the twin rotors (3, 4) and above the surface (51) of this rotor, has a first predetermined dimension ( h ). This machine is further characterized in that it does not comprise a first flank (9) and a second flank (10) whose conventional curves (91) and (101) meet at a first point ( w ) whereby forming a sharp edge along the helicoidal thread (7). Rather, on the one hand, the first flank (9) has a curve (92), called modified curve (92), of which the position and the length of arc are predetermined in such a manner that this modified curve (92) of the first flank (9) and the conventional curve (101) of the second flank (10) each join one of the opposite ends ( B ) and ( C ) of a short joining section (12) that, due to its presence all along the helicoidal thread (7), constitutes a helicoidal surface (13) that eliminates the presence of a sharp edge and, on the other hand, this joining section (12), in a direction radial to the longitudinal axis (6) of the one considered of the twin rotors (3, 4), has a second predetermined dimension ("L") such that the ratio of the second dimension ( L ) to the first dimension ( h ) ranges from 0.005 and 0.1 (five thousandths and a tenth).
