Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a fire pump driving system, in particular to an electric fire pump system for a fire truck. Background Art

[0002] The fire pump system drives the pump shaft through the motor to rotate the impeller inside the pump, thereby sucking water from the water source and pressurizing it to be transported to the fire pipe network. The main components of the existing fire pump system include diesel engines and fire pumps. The diesel engine generates high-temperature and high-pressure gas by burning diesel, driving the piston to reciprocate, thereby driving the crankshaft to rotate and provide power for the fire pump; the fire pump uses this power to suck liquid into the pump body, and through the action of components such as impellers or gears, the liquid is pressurized and transported to the fire pipe network or directly sprayed to the fire source.

[0003] However, during the use of the existing internal combustion engine driven fire pump system, the transmission route structure in the rear gear box is complex and the heat dissipation performance is poor. Due to the large kinetic energy consumed by its transmission, the heat generated by the fire pump also increases, which undoubtedly increases the workload of the fire pump. If it runs continuously for a long time, it is very likely to "break down". In addition, the internal combustion engine driven fire pump used is very likely to pose a threat to the personal safety of firefighters during high-load operation, seriously affecting the smooth implementation of fire fighting and rescue activities, and has poor safety performance.

[0014] Furthermore, the high and low pressure fire pump head includes a low pressure centrifugal pump, a multi-stage high pressure centrifugal pump and a high pressure water inlet section which are coaxially sleeved on the driving shaft of the permanent magnet direct drive motor in sequence, and a high and low pressure sealing bracket is arranged between the low pressure centrifugal pump and the multi-stage high pressure centrifugal pump to separate the low pressure centrifugal pump and the multi-stage high pressure centrifugal pump and realize separate sealing of the two.

[0015] Furthermore, the cooling water outlet of the low-pressure centrifugal pump is connected to the water inlet of the high-pressure water inlet section through a high-low pressure switching pipe, and a high-low pressure switching valve is provided in the middle of the high-low pressure connecting pipe to control the connection or disconnection between the low-pressure centrifugal pump and the multi-stage high-pressure centrifugal pump.

[0016] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is provided inside the permanent magnet direct drive motor for real-time monitoring of the internal temperature of the permanent magnet direct drive motor;

[0017] The output end of the temperature sensor is connected to the system control device.

[0019] Furthermore, the coolant is ethylene glycol antifreeze or clean water at room temperature.
