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. The stator outlet flange is arranged such that the rotor is insertable into the stator through the stator outlet flange. The aim of the invention is to provide easy access to components for tasks such as maintenance or cleaning.
