ECCENTRIC SCREW PUMP

An eccentric screw pump, comprising a rotor (70) that extends along a longitudinal axis (1) of the rotor from a drive end to a free end, a stator housing (90) with an internal cavity that extends along the longitudinal axis (1) from a stator inlet opening (90a) to a stator outlet opening (90b) and that is designed to accommodate the rotor (70), a drive motor (60) with a drive shaft that is coupled with the rotor (70) to transmit a torque, a first cardan joint (22) which is placed within the transmission of the torque between the drive shaft and the rotor, and a stator outlet flange (100) that is arranged in flow direction behind the rotor (70). The stator outlet flange (100) comprises a flange connection plane (100') that is oriented non-vertically to the longitudinal axis.
