A gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement.[1] They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. Gear pumps are also widely used in chemical installations to pump fluid with a certain viscosity. There are two main variations; external gear pumps which use two external spur gears, and internal gear pumps which use an external and an internal spur gear. Gear pumps are positive displacement (or fixed displacement), meaning they pump a constant amount of fluid for each revolution. Some gear pumps are designed to function as either amotor or a pump.

The oil pump is located inside the oil pan, underneath the engine. The pump is driven by a gear unit that spins with the camshaft (located higher up in the engine).

As far as I know, according to the volume of oil absorption and realize the function of oil to points， the hydraulic pumps can be can be divided into gear pump, vane pump, plunger pump and viscosity pump.
Why does the oil pressure gauge rise on accelerating then fall to normal after changing gear?
As the engine speed increase so does the speed of the oil pump. the faster the pump turns the higher the pressure becomes. When changing gear the engine speed drops along with the oil pressure.
