ABSTRACT A hydraulic fracturing pump includes a pinion assembly extending along a pinion axis and mounted in a crankcase, and having a first pinion shaft and a second pinion shaft coupled together by a keyless coupler. Each pinion shaft includes an input pinion gear mounted on one end of the .. pinion shaft. A crankshaft disposed along a crankshaft axis is mounted in the crankcase, and is parallel with but spaced apart from the pinion axis. The crankshaft includes a bull gear mounted on each end of the crankshaft with each bull gear interconnected to an input pinion gear by an intermediate gear assembly. Each intermediate gear assembly extends along an intermediate axis parallel with, but spaced apart from, the crankcase and pinion axii. Each intermediate assembly has an intermediate shaft with a first intermediate gear meshed with a pinion gear and a second intermediate gear meshed with the bull gear.

ABSTRACT A hydraulic fracturing pump includes a power end with a plurality of torsion tubes extending between sides of a crankcase housing in which a crankshaft is rotatably mounted. The crankshaft is coupled by piston arms to crossheads disposed to reciprocate along crosshead axes that are perpendicular to the crankshaft. Disposed within the crankcase housing are a plurality of ribs generally perpendicular to the crankshaft and extending from the base of the crankshaft housing to an upper surface of the crankshaft housing. The torsion tubes are generally adjacent the upper surface of the crankcase housing and pass perpendicularly through each of the plurality of ribs and are attached to the ribs to provide rigidity to the power end. 1 8 Date Reçue/Received Dated 2020-04-08
An electric drive hydraulic fracturing pump system includes a plurality of electric drive motors, with each electric drive motor electrically coupled to a dedicated dual inverter to control operation of the dedicated electric drive motor. The plurality of electric drive motors may be coupled to each end of a pump crankshaft and configured to provide rotational power to the power end of a hydraulic fracturing pump through a planetary gearset coupled to each end of the crankshaft. A hydraulic cooling circuit having an oil-based first cooling system and a water-based second cooling system independent of the first cooling system may be used to regulate the temperature of the electric motors and dual inverters.
An electric drive pump system includes a power end and a detachable transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is mounted to the power end and is configured to provide rotational power to the power end through a plurality of electric motors. The plurality of electric motors use a gearbox to drive an output spline that engages the power end. A control module is used to regulate the performance characteristics of the plurality of electric motors. A temperature regulation assembly is configured to regulate the temperature of the transmission assembly and the power end.
