Abstract:
1. A submersible water pump, comprising: a cylindrical housing, said cylindrical housing defining a cylindrical sidewall and a cylindrical pump-bore, said cylindrical sidewall defining an inner surface, said cylindrical housing having opposite top and bottom ends with a housing dividing wall disposed coaxially between said top and bottom ends of said cylindrical housing, said top end of housing defines a cylinder head, said cylinder head defines a cylindrical cylinder-head-bore therethrough, said housing dividing wall defines a perimeter, wherein said bottom end of said housing includes a traveling check valve, said housing dividing wall includes a standing check valve, wherein said inner surface of said cylindrical sidewall is in slidable engagement with said perimeter of said housing dividing wall, wherein said housing dividing wall divides said cylindrical pump-bore into upper and lower chambers; an inner tubing means for removing water from said lower chamber; a channel means incorporated into said inner tubing means, said channel means being in operable communication with said upper chamber, wherein during normal operation said channel means cyclically supplies and removes hydraulic fluid from said upper chamber; and an outer tube, wherein said inner tubing means fits coaxially inside said outer tubing means, wherein said cylindrical cylinder-head-bore is sized to accommodate said outer tube, wherein said outer tube fits through said cylinder-head-bore and said cylinder head is in slidable engagement with said outer tube, wherein during normal operation said cylindrical housing engages in reciprocal linear motion in the form of cycles of up-strokes and down-strokes in the vertical plane while said housing dividing wall remains stationary.
