This study presents the design and
theoretical analysis of a belt driven gear pump system developed as an
alternative to conventional direct drive mechanisms. Gear pumps, classified as positive
displacement pumps, are widely used in industrial applications due to their
simple structure, robustness, and ability to deliver a nearly constant flow
rate. In this work, a pulley (belt driven) transmission system is integrated
into the pump design to investigate its influence on rotational speed and flow
characteristics. The main pump components, including gears, housing, shafts,
and transmission elements, were modeled and assembled using SolidWorks. In addition, a novel cover design
was proposed to enhance sealing performance and facilitate assembly operations.
The design process was carried out in accordance with fundamental mechanical
design principles, and all components were dimensioned based on specified
technical parameters and geometric constraints. The theoretical performance of
the system was evaluated by calculating the volumetric displacement per
revolution and the rotational speed of the pump shaft. The pulley diameter
ratio was employed to determine the variation in rotational speed, which
directly affects the flow rate of the pump. The results show that the belt driven
transmission significantly influences system performance by modifying the
operating speed depending on the pulley configuration. Furthermore, the
proposed system offers several advantages, such as vibration damping, flexible
layout, and ease of maintenance, while potential limitations include efficiency
losses due to belt slip and transmission flexibility. Overall, the findings
indicate that the belt-driven gear pump system is a feasible and adaptable
solution, and the proposed cover design contributes positively to both
mechanical performance and structural integrity.
