Both gear- and gerotor-type pumps are used in the lubricating system of the turbine engine. ... The Gerotor pump has two moving parts: an inner-toothed element meshing with an outer-toothed element. The inner element has one less tooth than the outer. The missing tooth provides a chamber to move the fluid from the intake to the discharge port. Both elements are mounted eccentrically to one another on the same shaft. 3, record 2, English, - gerotor%2Dtype%20pump
