Patent attributes
A motor pump unit comprises an electric motor and a reversible internal gear machine. The latter has a multi-part housing in which an externally toothed pinion and an internally toothed hollow gear are arranged. A free space, in which a multi-part filler element is arranged, is configured between the gears. The filler element comprises radially movable sealing segments, between which a radial gap is configured. An axially movable sealing plate is arranged between axial faces of the gears and a housing part. This has a sealing plate control groove that is open to the faces of the gears and that can be pressurized, and which is open to the radial gap and located directly opposite thereto. The pinion segment and/or hollow gear segment has a radial sealing segment control channel that can be pressurized and extends transversely, is open to the radial gap, and ends directly in the radial gap.
