Abstract

An eccentric screw pump with a rotor of a pump drive shaft circling essentially about a fixed axis relative to a stator in a bearing block, which pump drive shaft is rotationally driven by a motor drive shaft of a motor, a power train and a screw conveyor, which revolves in a rotating-oscillating manner in a screw flight of the stator, wherein the power train provides the screw conveyor with its drive torque and the power train adapts the differences of the motion sequences of the screw conveyor and of the pump drive shaft. There is thereby an air gap between the motor drive shaft and the pump drive shaft, wherein the motor drive shaft supports a motor-side coupling half and the pump drive shaft supports a pump-side coupling half, which are connected to one another in a torque-transmitting manner by means of magnetic forces across the air gap, wherein the air gap is penetrated by a seal, which hermetically separates the motor region from the rest of the eccentric screw pump.
