The present invention relates to pump motor assembly. More particularly, it
relates to a development helical pump set with anti vibrations power
transmission assembly.
Background of the invention
The present invention relates to pump assembly more particularly it relates to
the anti vibration transmission assembly adjoining the pump & motor,
In a helical pump assembly helical rotor rotate offset from its centre axis, thus

connected to the helical rotor & motor shaft, thus offset movement of the helical
rotor trigger the whirling of the shaft, which leads higher vibration & fatigue
failure at joining of the shaft.
A need remains for connecting a helical pump assembly to motor in efficient &
reliable manner.
