Dry vacuum pump with a pressure variation reducing expansion device between a pumping side volume and an oil sump

A dry vacuum pump includes: at least one oil sump; at least one pumping stage; two rotary shafts respectively supporting at least one rotor extending into the at least one pumping stage, the rotors being configured to rotate in a synchronized manner in the reverse direction in order to convey a gas to be pumped between an intake and an outlet of the vacuum pump, the shafts being supported by bearings lubricated by a lubricant contained in the at least one oil sump; at least one lubricant sealing device interposed between the at least one oil sump and a pumping stage at the shaft passage; and at least one expansion device configured to reduce the pressure variations between a pumping side volume and the at least one oil sump.
