The invention belongs to the technical field of water pumps, and discloses a water pump. The water pump comprises a pump body, an eccentric shaft, a driving wheel, plungers and pistons. A water inlet,a water outlet, an opening P and an opening T are formed in the pump body, a plurality of
piston cavities are formed in the pump body, the pistons are located in the
piston cavities and can slide back and forth, the interiors of the
piston cavities are divided into oil cavities and water cavities; the oil cavities alternately communicates with the opening P and the opening T, the water cavities alternately communicates with the water inlet and the water outlet, the outer surface of the driving wheel is a regular polygon, the driving wheel sleeves the eccentric section of the eccentric shaft and can perform relative sliding in the circumferential direction, one ends of the plungers are connected with the pistons, the other ends of the plungers are in
sliding contact with the outer surfaceof the driving wheel, during the rotation of the eccentric shaft, and the communication relationship between the opening P and the opening T and different oil cavities and the communication relationship between the water inlet and the water outlet and the different water cavities are switched. The water pump can perform continuous compression acting of water mediums under
hydraulic pressure, is simple in structure and low in cost, the use of a motor and an
impeller is saved, the
working temperature is reduced, and long-term continuous work is achieved.
