[0033] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clear, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] The present disclosure provides a steam reciprocating pump, such as Figure 1 As shown, the steam reciprocating pump includes a cylinder 1, a steam distribution component 2, a liquid cylinder 4 and a pump valve component 5.

[0035] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 The cross-sectional view along the AA direction, combined with Figure 2 The cylinder 1 comprises a cylinder body 11, a pneumatic piston 12 and a pneumatic piston rod 13. The pneumatic piston 12 is movably located in the cylinder body 11. One end of the pneumatic piston rod 13 is connected to the pneumatic piston 12.

[0036] The steam distribution component 2 is located outside the cylinder body 11 and is connected to the cylinder body 11. The steam distribution component 2 is used to drive the steam piston 12 to move.

[0037] The hydraulic cylinder 4 includes a hydraulic cylinder body 41, a hydraulic piston 42 and a hydraulic piston rod 43. The hydraulic piston 42 is movably located in the hydraulic cylinder body 41. One end of the hydraulic piston rod 43 is connected to the hydraulic piston 42, and the other end of the hydraulic piston rod 43 is coaxially connected to the other end of the pneumatic piston rod 13. In this way, when the pneumatic piston 12 moves, it can drive the hydraulic piston 42 to move synchronously.

[0038] Figure 3 yes Figure 2 The cross-sectional view along the CC direction, combined with Figure 3 The pump valve assembly 5 is located outside the liquid cylinder 4. The pump valve assembly 5 includes a pump housing 51 and two valve control unit groups 52. The pump housing 51 has a liquid suction port 5101 and a liquid discharge port 5102 on opposite sides. The pump housing 51 has two accommodating chambers 500 inside. The two accommodating chambers 500 are respectively connected to the rod chamber and the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder 4. The two valve control unit groups 52 are respectively located in the two accommodating chambers 500. Each of the two valve control unit groups 52 includes at least one valve control unit 520.

[0039] The valve control unit 520 is used to pump out the liquid cargo in the accommodating chamber 500 from the discharge port 5102 when the pressure in the accommodating chamber 500 is greater than the pressure in the discharge port 5102, and to suck the liquid cargo into the accommodating chamber 500 from the suction port 5101 when the pressure in the accommodating chamber 500 is less than the pressure in the suction port 5101.

[0040] When the steam reciprocating pump provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is used to transport liquid cargo or to perform a tank sweeping operation through liquid cargo, since the steam reciprocating pump includes a cylinder 1, a steam distribution assembly 2, a liquid cylinder 4, and the liquid piston 42 is coaxial with the gas piston 12, the liquid piston 42 can be driven to move synchronously by the gas piston 12. The steam distribution assembly 2 is used to drive the gas piston 12 to move, so that the steam can enter the rod chamber or the rodless chamber of the cylinder 1 through the steam distribution assembly 2, and at the same time, the steam is discharged from the rodless chamber or the rod chamber of the cylinder 1 to drive the gas piston 12 to reciprocate, thereby driving the liquid piston 42 to reciprocate synchronously.

[0041] Since the pump housing 51 has two accommodating chambers 500 inside, and one of the two accommodating chambers 500 is correspondingly connected to the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder 4, and the other of the two accommodating chambers 500 is correspondingly connected to the rod chamber, when the hydraulic piston 42 of the liquid cylinder 4 moves toward the outside of the liquid cylinder body 41, the hydraulic pressure of one of the accommodating chambers 500 connected to the rod chamber of the liquid cylinder 4 increases, and the hydraulic pressure of the other accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder 4 decreases. The hydraulic pressure inside the multiple valve control units 520 located in the accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rod chamber of the liquid cylinder increases, and the valve control units 520 can pump the liquid cargo in the accommodating chamber 500 from the discharge port 5102. The hydraulic pressure inside the multiple valve control units 520 located in the accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder decreases, and the valve control units 520 can suck the liquid cargo from the suction port 5101 into the accommodating chamber 500. When the hydraulic piston 42 of the liquid cylinder 4 retracts the liquid cylinder body 41, the hydraulic pressure of one of the accommodating chambers 500 connected to the rod chamber of the liquid cylinder 4 decreases, and the hydraulic pressure of the other accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder 4 increases. The hydraulic pressure inside the multiple valve control units 520 located in the accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rod chamber of the liquid cylinder decreases, and the valve control units 520 can suck the liquid cargo from the suction port 5101 into the accommodating chamber 500. The hydraulic pressure inside the multiple valve control units 520 located in the accommodating chamber 500 connected to the rodless chamber of the liquid cylinder decreases, and the valve control units 520 can pump the liquid cargo in the accommodating chamber 500 from the discharge port 5102.

[0042] Therefore, no matter when the hydraulic piston 42 of the hydraulic cylinder 4 is extended or retracted, the pump valve assembly 5 can synchronously suck in and pump out the liquid cargo, thereby increasing the volume of the liquid cargo pumped per unit time, thereby improving the working efficiency.

[0043] Combination Figure 3 Optionally, the valve control unit 520 includes a suction valve 521 and a discharge valve 522, and the suction valve 521 and the discharge valve 522 are both connected to the pump housing 51. The first oil port of the suction valve 521 is connected to the suction port 5101, and the second oil port of the suction valve 521 is connected to the accommodating chamber 500. The suction valve 521 is configured such that when the pressure at its first oil port is greater than the pressure at its second oil port, its first oil port is connected to its second oil port.

[0044] The first oil port of the discharge valve 522 is connected to the accommodating chamber 500, and the second oil port of the discharge valve 522 is connected to the discharge port 5102. The discharge valve 522 is configured so that when the pressure at its first oil port is greater than the pressure at its second oil port, its first oil port is connected to its second oil port.

[0045] In the above implementation, the suction valve 521 is used to selectively connect the first oil port and the second oil port according to the pressure difference between the first oil port and the second oil port, so that the valve control unit 520 can inhale liquid cargo from the suction port 5101. The discharge valve 522 is used to selectively connect the first oil port and the second oil port according to the pressure difference between the first oil port and the second oil port, so that the valve control unit 520 can pump liquid cargo from the discharge port 5102.

[0046] In this embodiment, the suction valve 521 and the discharge valve 522 have the same structure and are both one-way flow valves, that is, they are in a conducting state when the pressure of the first oil port is greater than the pressure of the second oil port, and they are in a disconnected state when the pressure of the first oil port is not greater than the pressure of the second oil port.

[0047] Optionally, the two accommodating chambers 500 include a first accommodating chamber 501 and a second accommodating chamber 502. The pump housing 51 further has a first discharge channel 503, a first suction channel 504, a second discharge channel 505 and a second suction channel 506. The first discharge channel 503 and the second discharge channel 505 are both connected to the discharge port 5102, and the first suction channel 504 and the second suction channel 506 are both connected to the suction port 5101. The first discharge channel 503 and the first suction channel 504 are respectively located on opposite sides of the first accommodating chamber 501 along the movement direction of the hydraulic piston 42, the first discharge channel 503 is connected to the second oil port of the discharge valve 522 located in the first accommodating chamber 501, and the first suction channel 504 is connected to the first oil port of the suction valve 521 located in the first accommodating chamber 501. The second discharge channel 505 and the second suction channel 506 are respectively located on opposite sides of the second accommodating chamber 502 along the movement direction of the hydraulic piston 42. The second discharge channel 505 is connected to the second oil port of the discharge valve 522 located in the second accommodating chamber 502, and the second suction channel 506 is connected to the first oil port of the suction valve 521 located in the second accommodating chamber 502.

[0048] In the above implementation, the first discharge channel 503 is used to connect the second oil ports of all the discharge valves 522 in the first accommodating chamber 501 with the discharge port 5102. The first suction channel 504 is used to connect the first oil ports of all the suction valves 521 in the first accommodating chamber 501 with the suction port 5101.

[0049] The second discharge channel 505 is used to connect the second oil ports of all the discharge valves 522 in the second accommodating chamber 502 with the discharge port 5102. The second suction channel 506 is used to connect the first oil ports of all the suction valves 521 in the second accommodating chamber 502 with the suction port 5101.

[0050] Figure 4 yes Figure 2 The cross-sectional view along the BB direction, combined with Figure 4 Optionally, there are two liquid cylinders 4, and the two liquid cylinders 4 are connected side by side in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the liquid piston 42. There are two gas cylinders 1, and the two cylinders 1 are connected side by side and correspond to the two liquid cylinders 4 one by one. The liquid piston 42 of each liquid cylinder 4 is connected to the gas piston 12 of the corresponding cylinder 1. The rod chamber and the rodless chamber of each liquid cylinder 4 are respectively connected to the two accommodating chambers 500. The gas distribution assembly 2 is used to drive the gas pistons 12 in the two cylinders 1 to move in the same direction in turn.

[0051] In this embodiment, the two cylinders 1 include a first cylinder 1a and a second cylinder 1b. The two liquid cylinders 4 include a first liquid cylinder 4a and a second liquid cylinder 4b.

[0052] In the above implementation, since the steam distribution assembly 2 is used to drive the pneumatic pistons 12 in the two cylinders 1 to move in the same direction in turn, when the pneumatic piston 12 in the first cylinder 1a moves to the limit position, the pneumatic piston 12 in the second cylinder 1b starts to move, and thus, the hydraulic pistons 42 also move in turn. That is, the hydraulic piston 42 in the first hydraulic cylinder 4a moves to the limit position (for example, Figure 4 After the upper limit position or the lower limit position is reached (as shown in the figure), the hydraulic piston 42 of the second hydraulic cylinder 4b starts to move. Compared with the action of one hydraulic cylinder 4, the alternating movement of the two hydraulic cylinders 4 can significantly prolong the opening time of the suction valve 521 or the discharge valve 522 in each accommodating chamber 500, improve the stability of liquid cargo transportation, and reduce the number of opening and closing times of the suction valve 521 or the discharge valve 522, so as to prolong the service life of the suction valve 521 or the discharge valve 522.

[0053] Optionally, the steam distribution assembly 2 includes two steam distribution units 20, the two steam distribution units 20 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the two cylinders 1, and each of the two steam distribution units 20 is connected to the corresponding cylinder 1. Each steam distribution unit 20 includes a steam distribution valve body 21 and a steam distribution valve core 22, the steam distribution valve bodies 21 of the two steam distribution units 20 are connected, and the two steam distribution valve bodies 21 have a steam inlet 201.

[0054] The steam distribution valve core 22 is movably located in the steam distribution valve body 21. The steam distribution valve core 22 has a first position and a second position along the moving direction of the steam piston 12. The steam distribution valve core 22 is configured as follows: when the steam distribution valve core 22 is in the first position, the steam is controlled to enter the rodless chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1, and the steam in the rod chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1 is discharged to drive the steam piston 12 to move; when the steam distribution valve core 22 is in the second position, the steam is controlled to enter the rod chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1, and the steam in the rodless chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1 is discharged to drive the steam piston 12 to move.

[0055] In the above implementation, since the steam distribution valve core 22 has a first position and a second position, the corresponding cylinder 1 can be controlled to perform telescopic movement by controlling the position of the steam distribution valve core 22. For example, by controlling the steam distribution valve core 22 to be in the first position, the steam can be controlled to enter the rodless chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1, and at the same time, the steam is discharged from the rod chamber to drive the steam-driven piston 12 of the cylinder 1 to move in accordance with the first position. Figure 4 When the steam distribution valve core 22 is in the second position, the steam can be controlled to enter the rod chamber of the corresponding cylinder 1 and to be discharged from the rodless chamber to drive the steam piston 12 of the cylinder 1 to move in accordance with the Figure 4 Move up the position in .

[0056] Figure 5 yes Figure 2 The cross-sectional view along the DD direction, combined with Figure 5 Optionally, the interior of the steam distribution valve body 21 has a first steam inlet channel 2101, a first steam exhaust channel 2102, a steam exhaust port 2103, a second steam exhaust channel 2104, and a second steam inlet channel 2105 arranged at intervals along the moving direction of the steam-actuated piston 12. The first steam inlet channel 2101 and the first steam exhaust channel 2102 are both connected to the rodless chamber of the cylinder 1 corresponding to the steam distribution unit 20, and the second steam exhaust channel 2104 and the second steam inlet channel 2105 are both connected to the rod chamber of the cylinder 1 corresponding to the steam distribution unit 20.

At the same time, the second steam exhaust flow channel 2104 and the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 can be connected with the rod chambers of the two cylinders 1, so as to pass steam to the rod chambers of the cylinders 1 or discharge the steam in the rod chambers.

[0059] Optionally, the two steam distribution units 20 are arranged symmetrically, and the extension direction of the symmetry axis of the two steam distribution units 20 is the same as the moving direction of the steam-actuated piston 12. For any steam distribution valve body 21, the first steam inlet channel 2101, the first steam exhaust channel 2102, the exhaust port 2103, the second steam exhaust channel 2104 and the second steam inlet channel 2105 are also symmetrical structures, and the symmetry axis is perpendicular to the symmetry axis of the two steam distribution units 20. The steam inlet 201 and the first exhaust channel 2102 are located on opposite sides of the first steam inlet channel 2101, respectively.

[0060] The steam distribution valve core 22 also has a symmetrical structure. The steam distribution valve core 22 includes a valve core shaft 221 and a valve core sleeve 222. The valve core sleeve 222 is sleeved outside the valve core shaft 221 and connected to the valve core shaft 221. Both ends of the valve core shaft 221 are located outside the steam distribution valve body 21, and the valve core shaft 221 is connected to the connecting rod assembly 6.

[0061] The two end faces of the valve core sleeve 222 are conical, and the middle part of the valve core sleeve 222 has an annular groove 2220. The outer wall of the valve core sleeve 222 is sealed and fitted with the inner wall of the steam distribution valve body 21, and at least part of the first steam inlet channel 2101, the first steam exhaust channel 2102, the steam exhaust port 2103, the second steam exhaust channel 2104 and the second steam inlet channel 2105 are all annular grooves located outside the valve core sleeve 222. In this way, the movement of the steam distribution valve core 22 can be controlled, so that when steam is introduced into the steam inlet 201, the first steam inlet channel 2101 is connected to the steam inlet 201, and the second steam exhaust channel 2104 is connected to the steam exhaust port 2103, or the second steam inlet channel 2105 is connected to the steam inlet 201, and the first steam exhaust channel 2102 is connected to the steam exhaust port 2103.

[0062] In this embodiment, the interior of the two steam distribution valve bodies 21 has a first annular groove 202 and a second annular groove 203, the first annular groove 202 is located on the side of the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the two steam distribution units 20 away from the second steam inlet flow channel 2105, and the second annular groove 203 is located on the side of the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 in the two steam distribution units 20 away from the first steam inlet flow channel 2101. The first annular groove 202 and the second annular groove 203 are respectively connected to the steam inlet 201, and the first annular groove 202 is connected to the first cavity accommodating the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a, and the second annular groove 203 is connected to the second cavity accommodating the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b.

[0063] Optionally, the two steam distribution units 20 include a first steam distribution unit 20a and a second steam distribution unit 20b, the first steam distribution unit 20a is connected to the first cylinder 1a correspondingly, and the second steam distribution unit 20b is connected to the second cylinder 1b correspondingly.

[0064] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the connected components, combined with Figure 6 The steam reciprocating pump further comprises a connecting rod assembly 6, which comprises a first connecting unit 601 and a second connecting unit 602. The first connecting unit 601 is respectively connected to the steam-driven piston 12 in the first cylinder and the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit, and the second connecting unit 602 is respectively connected to the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit and the steam-driven piston 12 in the second cylinder.

[0065] The first connection unit 601 is configured to control the connected pneumatic piston 12 and the steam distribution valve core 22 to move in opposite directions. The second connection unit 602 is configured to control the connected pneumatic piston 12 and the steam distribution valve core 22 to move in the same direction.

[0066] Since the first connection unit 601 controls the pneumatic piston 12 in the connected first cylinder 1a and the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b to move in opposite directions, the second connection unit 602 controls the pneumatic piston 12 in the connected second cylinder 1b and the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a to move in the same direction. Figure 4 When the steam piston 12 on the left side of the middle moves upward, the steam valve core 22 (located at Figure 4 When the steam distribution valve core 22 in the steam distribution unit 20 (the steam distribution valve core 22 on the right side in the figure) in the second cylinder 1b connected to the second connecting unit 602 (the steam distribution piston 12 on the right side in the figure) moves up, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a connected to the second connecting unit 602 (the steam distribution valve core 22 on the right side in the figure) moves down. Figure 4 The steam distribution valve core 22 in the steam distribution unit 20 on the left side moves upward until it is located at the first position, so that the two steam distribution valve cores 22 can be located at different positions respectively, and the two cylinders 1 can move in turn.

[0067] Optionally, the connection unit 60 includes a connection head 61, a rotation pin 62, a rocker arm 63, a rocker arm shaft 64, a rocker 65 and a connecting rod 66. The connection head 61 is respectively connected to the pneumatic piston 12 of the cylinder 1 and the hydraulic piston 42 of the hydraulic cylinder 4. The rotation pin 62 is plugged into the outer wall of the connection head 61 and is rotationally connected to the connection head 61, and the axial direction of the rotation axis of the rotation pin 62 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the pneumatic piston 12. The first end of the rocker arm 63 is slidably inserted in the rotating pin 62, and the moving direction of the rocker arm 63 relative to the rotating pin 62 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the rotating axis of the rotating pin 62. The second end of the rocker arm 63 is rotatably connected to one end of the rocker arm shaft 64, and the middle part of the rocker arm shaft 64 is rotatably connected to the steam distribution component 2. The rocker arm shaft 64 is parallel to the rotating pin 62, and the other end of the rocker arm shaft 64 is rotatably connected to one end of the rocker lever 65. The rocker lever 65 is perpendicular to the rocker arm shaft 64, and the other end of the rocker lever 65 is hinged to the connecting rod 66. The other end of the connecting rod 66 is connected to the steam distribution valve core 22.

[0068] The rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the first connecting unit 601 are respectively located on both sides of the axial direction of the connected rocker shaft 64, and when the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit is in the upper limit position, the rocker arm 63, the rocker lever 65 and the rocker shaft 64 in the first connecting unit 601 are located in the same plane (that is, when the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit is in the upper limit position, the rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the first connecting unit 601 are arranged 180 degrees in an opposite direction relative to the rocker shaft 64).

[0069] The rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the second connecting unit 602 are respectively located on the same side of the axial direction of the connected rocker shaft 64, and when the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit is in the lower limit position, the rocker arm 63, the rocker lever 65 and the rocker shaft 64 in the second connecting unit 602 are located in the same plane (that is, when the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit is in the lower limit position, the rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the second connecting unit 602 are arranged in the same direction at 0 degrees relative to the rocker shaft 64).

[0070] See also Figure 6 , the first connection unit 601 is Figure 6 The connecting unit on the upper middle side, wherein the rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 connected to the first connecting unit 601 are respectively located on both sides of the left and right directions of the rocker arm shaft 64. The rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 connected to the second connecting unit 602 are respectively located on the same side of the left and right directions of the rocker arm shaft 64.

[0071] In the above implementation, the connector 61 is used to connect the pneumatic piston rod 13 and the hydraulic piston rod 43 together. The rotating pin 62 is used to be rotatably connected to the connector 61 so that the rocker arm 63 can rotate relative to the connector 61. Since the rocker arm 63 and the rocker rod 65 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the rocker shaft 64 respectively, and the rocker shaft 64 is connected to the outer wall of the steam distribution valve body 21, when the pneumatic piston rod 13 moves downward, the rocker arm 63 will rotate relative to the connector 61, and then drive the rocker shaft 64 to rotate, and the rocker shaft 64 drives the rocker rod 65 to swing upward or downward, and finally drives the connecting rod 66 to move upward or downward, thereby driving the steam distribution valve core 22 to move upward or downward.

[0072] The rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the first connection unit 601 are respectively located on both sides of the axis direction of the connected rocker arm shaft 64, so that after the pneumatic piston rod 13 moves downward, the rocker arm 63 will move the connecting rod 66 upward when rotating, thereby realizing the reverse movement of the connected pneumatic piston 12 and the steam distribution valve core 22. The rocker arm 63 and the rocker lever 65 in the second connection unit 602 are respectively located on the same side of the axis direction of the connected rocker arm shaft 64, so that after the pneumatic piston rod 13 moves downward, the rocker arm 63 will move the connecting rod 66 downward after rotating, thereby realizing the same direction movement of the connected pneumatic piston 12 and the steam distribution valve core 22.

[0073] In this embodiment, the connector 61 is a cross connector, and the rotating pin 62 is rotatably inserted into the pin hole of the connector 61. Both ends of the rotating pin 62 respectively have square holes 620. The axis of the square hole 620 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating pin 62.

[0074] The rocker arm 63 includes a U-shaped head 631 and a connecting rod 632. One end of the U-shaped head 631 with an opening is respectively inserted into the two square holes 620 of the rotating pin 62. The end of the U-shaped head 631 away from the opening is connected to one end of the connecting rod 632, and the other end of the connecting rod 632 is connected to the rocker arm shaft 64. The connecting head 61 is located in the U-shaped space of the U-shaped head 631. In this way, the square holes 620 can be used to allow the rocker arm 63 and the rotating pin 62 to only slide and not rotate relative to each other.

[0075] See again Figure 1 Optionally, the steam reciprocating pump further comprises a support assembly 7, which comprises at least two support columns 71, the at least two support columns 71 are parallel to each other, and one end of each of the at least two support columns 71 is connected to the cylinder body 11, and the other end of each support column 71 is connected to the liquid cylinder body 41. In this way, the cylinder 1 and the liquid cylinder 4 can be connected to each other through the support column 71 to further increase the structural strength.

[0076] Optionally, the support assembly 7 further includes a connecting plate 72, which is connected to the outer wall of the steam distribution valve body 21, and the rocker shafts 64 in the two connecting units 60 are inserted into the connecting plate 72. In this way, the connecting unit 60 can be supported by the connecting plate 72, so that the connecting unit 60 remains stable.

[0077] The following briefly introduces the working process of the steam reciprocating pump provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure:

[0078] In the initial state, the pneumatic pistons 12 and pneumatic piston rods 13 in the two cylinders 1 are both located at the bottom of the corresponding cylinder body 11. At this time, the connectors 61 in the first connection unit 601 and the second connection unit 602 are both in the lower limit position. The rocker 65 in the first connection unit 601, through the corresponding connecting rod 66, makes the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b in the upper limit position. The rocker 65 in the second connection unit 602, through the corresponding connecting rod 66, makes the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a in the lower limit position.

[0079] When steam enters the steam inlet 201 of the steam distribution assembly 2, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a is at the lower limit position, the first exhaust flow channel 2102 in the first steam distribution unit 20a is closed and cut off from the exhaust port 2103, and the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 is opened and connected to the steam inlet 201. Steam enters the rodless cavity in the first cylinder 1a corresponding to the first steam distribution unit 20a from the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the first steam distribution unit 20a. Since the pneumatic piston 12 and the pneumatic piston rod 13 are both located at the bottom of the corresponding cylinder body 11, the pneumatic piston 12 in the first cylinder 1a remains stationary. At the same time, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b is in the upper limit position, the first steam inlet channel 2101 in the second steam distribution unit 20b is closed, the first steam exhaust channel 2102 in the second steam distribution unit 20b is connected to the exhaust port 2103, the second exhaust channel 2104 is closed, and the second steam inlet channel 2105 is opened. At this time, steam enters the rod chamber of the second cylinder 1b from the second steam inlet channel 2105 in the second steam distribution unit 20b. Since the pneumatic piston 12 of the second cylinder 1b is in the lower limit position, the pneumatic piston 12 of the second cylinder 1b starts to move upward.

[0080] The pneumatic piston 12 of the second cylinder 1b moves upward, which drives the connector 61 in the second connection unit 602 and the hydraulic piston 42 of the second liquid cylinder 4b to move upward. The volume of the rod chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b decreases and the pressure increases. The discharge valve 522 in the first accommodating chamber 501 corresponding to the rod chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b opens, and the liquid in the first accommodating chamber 501 is pumped out from the discharge port 5102. At the same time, the volume of the rodless chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b increases and the pressure decreases. The suction valve 521 in the second accommodating chamber 502 corresponding to the rodless chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b opens, and the liquid is sucked into the second accommodating chamber 502 from the suction port 5101.

[0081] At the same time, the connector 61 in the second connecting unit 602 moves upward, and drives the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a on the left to move upward through the rotating pin 62, the rocker arm 63, the rocker arm shaft 64, the rocker 65 and the connecting rod 66. When the connector 61 in the second connecting unit 602 moves to the upper limit position, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a on the left also moves to the upper limit position. At this time, the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the first steam distribution unit 20a is closed, the first steam exhaust flow channel 2102 is connected to the exhaust port 2103, the second steam exhaust flow channel 2104 is closed, and the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 is opened. Steam enters the rod chamber of the first cylinder 1a from the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 in the first steam distribution unit 20a on the left, and the steam-driven piston 12 of the first cylinder 1a begins to move upward. During the upward movement of the pneumatic piston 12 of the first cylinder 1 a , the pneumatic piston 12 of the second cylinder 1 b located on the right side remains stationary and is located at the upper limit position.

[0082] When the pneumatic piston 12 of the first cylinder 1a moves upward, it drives the connector 61 in the first connection unit 601 and the hydraulic piston 42 of the first liquid cylinder 4a to move upward. At this time, the volume of the rod chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a decreases and the pressure increases. The discharge valve 522 in the first accommodating chamber 501 corresponding to the rod chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a opens, and the liquid in the first accommodating chamber 501 is pumped out from the discharge port 5102. At the same time, the volume of the rodless chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a increases and the pressure decreases. The suction valve 521 in the second accommodating chamber 502 corresponding to the rodless chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a opens, and the liquid is sucked into the second accommodating chamber 502 from the suction port 5101.

[0083] At the same time, as the connector 61 in the first connecting unit 601 moves upward, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a on the right side will be driven to move downward through the rotating pin 62, the rocker arm 63, the rocker arm shaft 64, the rocker 65 and the connecting rod 66. When the connector 61 in the first connecting unit 601 moves to the upper limit position, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b on the right side also moves to the lower limit position. When the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b on the right side is in the lower limit position, the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the second steam distribution unit 20b is opened, the first steam exhaust flow channel 2102 is closed, the second steam exhaust flow channel 2104 is connected to the exhaust port 2103, and the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 is closed. At this time, the steam enters the rodless chamber of the second cylinder 1b from the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the second steam distribution unit 20b, and the steam-driven piston 12 of the second cylinder 1b begins to move downward.

[0084] When the pneumatic piston of the second cylinder 1b moves downward, the connector 61 in the second connection unit 602 and the hydraulic piston 42 of the second liquid cylinder 4b move downward. At this time, the volume of the rod chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b increases, the pressure decreases, and the suction valve in the first accommodating chamber 501 corresponding to the rod chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b opens, and the liquid cargo is sucked into the first accommodating chamber 501 from the suction port 5101. At the same time, the volume of the rodless chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b decreases, and the pressure increases. The discharge valve 522 in the second accommodating chamber 502 corresponding to the rodless chamber of the second liquid cylinder 4b opens, and the liquid cargo in the second accommodating chamber 502 is pumped out from the discharge port 5102.

[0085] At the same time, as the connector 61 in the second connecting unit 602 moves downward, the steam distribution valve core 22 on the left side is driven to move downward through the rotating pin 62, the rocker arm 63, the rocker arm shaft 64, the rocker 65 and the connecting rod 66. When the connector 61 in the second connecting unit 602 moves to the lower limit position, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the first steam distribution unit 20a on the left side also moves to the lower limit position. At this time, the first steam inlet flow channel 2101 in the first steam distribution unit 20a is opened, the first steam exhaust flow channel 2102 is closed, the second steam exhaust flow channel 2104 is connected to the exhaust port 2103, and the second steam inlet flow channel 2105 is closed. Steam enters the rodless chamber of the first cylinder 1a from the first steam inlet flow channel 2101, and the steam-driven piston 12 of the first cylinder 1a begins to move downward.

[0086] When the pneumatic piston 12 of the first cylinder 1a starts to move downward, it will drive the connector 61 in the first connecting unit 601 and the hydraulic piston 42 of the first liquid cylinder 4a to move downward. At this time, the volume of the rod chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a increases, the pressure decreases, the suction valve 521 in the first accommodating chamber 501 opens, and the liquid cargo enters the first accommodating chamber 501. The volume of the rodless chamber of the first liquid cylinder 4a decreases, the pressure increases, the discharge valve 522 in the second accommodating chamber 502 is pushed open, and the liquid cargo is pumped out.

[0087] At the same time, when the connector 61 in the first connection unit 601 rotates, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b on the right side moves upward through the rotating pin 62, the rocker arm 63, the rocker arm shaft 64, the rocker 65 and the connecting rod 66. When the connector 61 in the first connection unit 601 moves to the lower limit position, the steam distribution valve core 22 in the second steam distribution unit 20b on the right side also moves to the upper limit position. This completes a complete cycle, and the cycle is repeated in the future.

[0088] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
