Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a liquid sulfur pump, which belongs to a high-temperature jacketed submersible pump. The overall structure is a vertical centrifugal pump with a single-stage or multi-stage, single-suction, open or closed impeller. The pump is suitable for conveying high-temperature, high-melting-point, easily solidified dangerous media such as phthalic anhydride and liquid sulfur, with a maximum temperature of 260°C. Background Art
[0002] Under normal working conditions, sulfur exists in the pump in liquid form and is transported, and the temperature condition is required to be between 140 and 150 degrees Celsius;
[0003] In winter, in low temperature environments or shutdown states, the sulfur in the pump turns into solid crystals at temperatures below 40 degrees. After solidification, the sulfur cannot be transported in the pump, causing the pump to fail to work. Therefore, the pump needs to be kept under high temperature conditions to maintain normal operation.
[0004] Therefore, the present application is about how to keep the pump warm during operation and how to solve the problem of sulfur solidification after the pump is stopped and cooled, which is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.
[0005] In the traditional liquid sulfur pump structure, the pumping medium is discharged from the pump and led to the bottom plate through a separate liquid outlet pipe. There is no flow and flushing between the sliding bearings under the liquid medium. The flushing of the sliding bearings must be completed by the flushing pipe led from the pump outlet. The flushing pipe also needs to be insulated. Under certain temperature and insulation time, the sulfur in the flushing pipe must be melted before flushing can be performed. When starting the car after maintenance or parking, even if you can easily turn the car, you cannot determine whether the flushing pipe is unobstructed. If the insulation time is not enough, the sliding bearing will be dry-grinded and damaged. Summary of the invention

[0012] Furthermore, an air cavity is formed in the upper cylindrical tube between the auxiliary impeller and the bottom plate; the pump forms a dynamic seal through the auxiliary impeller; the gas is isolated by the auxiliary impeller seal, and a dynamic seal structure is adopted.

[0016] The function of the air cavity is that the steam passing through the lower part of the dynamic seal needs a higher temperature, while the bearing room above the bottom plate of the upper part of the air cavity needs a lower temperature. The air cavity acts as an isolation cavity to reduce the heat conduction from the steam insulation area to the bearing cooling area, thereby preventing the heat from being transferred up and causing the temperature at the bearing to be too high.

[0020] Furthermore, the liquid outlet pipe adopts a free telescopic structure to prevent the thermal deformation of different parts from causing deformation of the pump body and affecting its use.
[0021] Using the above technical solution, the working process and principle of the present invention are:
[0022] During normal operation, sulfur is transported in the pump in a high-temperature liquid state, with the temperature controlled at 140-150 degrees Celsius;
[0023] When the machine needs to be restarted after shutdown, the main shaft cannot rotate before starting because the sulfur is in a solidified state; the solidified sulfur needs to be melted by passing steam; the steam is introduced through the inlet of the steam pipe, reaches the air cavity through the first steam pipe, passes through the air cavity through the second steam pipe to enter the insulation cavity of the auxiliary impeller, is led out from the third steam pipe of the auxiliary impeller and returns, and then enters the sliding bearing body through the fourth steam pipe, is led out to the steam outlet pipe after passing through the sliding bearing, and is discharged from the insulation steam outlet; in this process, the entire steam pipeline can melt the solidified sulfur in the pump into a liquid state, and can be in a normal conveying state, at this time, the motor main shaft can be driven to rotate, and the sulfur flows upward along the main shaft in the pump through the rotation of the impeller of the pump part. At this time, the medium provides an upward force through the impeller; the medium exerts downward pressure on the medium through the action of the upper auxiliary impeller, realizes sealing and prevents the medium from entering the air cavity above the auxiliary impeller; thereby reducing the heat conduction from the steam insulation area to the bearing cooling area, and achieving an isolation effect;
[0024] In the above process, when the pump works normally, most of the sulfur is discharged from the liquid outlet pipe through the main flow channel, and the remaining sulfur flows upward through the gap of the sliding bearing and enters the space formed by the inner wall of the annular cavity. After entering, part of the sulfur flows back to the sulfur tank through the first leakage hole, the sulfur pressure is reduced, and the remaining sulfur enters the cavity on the upper part of the sliding bearing, and is sealed in the cavity below the auxiliary impeller through the dynamic sealing action of the auxiliary impeller; if the auxiliary impeller is not completely sealed, at this time, a small amount of remaining sulfur leaks through the auxiliary impeller seal to the upper cylindrical tube, and flows back to the sulfur tank through the second leakage hole of the upper cylindrical tube.

[0026] A dynamic seal is set above the liquid outlet pipe. There is gas between the dynamic seal and the bottom plate. An air cavity is formed in the pump between the auxiliary impeller and the bottom plate, which constitutes the auxiliary impeller dynamic seal. The air cavity serves as an isolation cavity to reduce the heat conduction from the steam insulation area to the bearing cooling area, preventing the heat from being uploaded and causing the bearing temperature to be too high. The pump seal adopts a maintenance-free packing structure and can be cooled. The submerged part of the rotor is supported by a sliding bearing. The sliding bearing seat can be insulated by steam, and the sliding bearing is self-flushing. The submerged depth can reach 10m. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0038] In the present application, in order to prevent the medium in the pump from solidifying and crystallizing on the inner wall of the pump, a steam pipe inlet 20 is provided at the upper position of the liquid outlet pipe 13, a first steam pipe 21 is connected between the lower end of the liquid outlet pipe 13 and the upper part of the air cavity 17 close to the liquid outlet pipe 13, a second steam pipe 22 is connected to the outer upper end of the auxiliary impeller cavity 16.1 on the side of the air cavity 17 away from the liquid outlet pipe 13, and a third steam pipe 23 is provided between the upper and lower parts of the cavity 16.1 of the auxiliary impeller 16 close to the liquid outlet pipe 13 and is connected to the second steam pipe 22.

[0039] The function of the air cavity 17 is that the steam passing through the lower part of the dynamic seal needs a higher temperature, while the bearing chamber 10 above the bottom plate 8 of the upper part of the air cavity 17 needs a lower temperature. The air cavity 17 acts as an isolation cavity to prevent the heat conduction from the steam insulation area to the bearing cooling area from being reduced, thereby preventing the heat from being transferred up and causing the temperature at the bearing to be too high.
[0040] The flow component of the present invention adopts a liquid reflux design when the vehicle is stopped, so as to ensure that the sulfur liquid flows back into the tank when the vehicle is stopped, and prevents the sulfur liquid from accumulating in the pump, and prevents the pump from solidifying at room temperature after being taken out for maintenance, which increases the difficulty of disassembly and causes maintenance difficulties.
[0041] At the lower end of the pump (immersed in the liquid), axial outflow is adopted, and the sliding bearing is lubricated by the medium.

[0042] During normal operation, sulfur is transported in the pump in a high-temperature liquid state, with the temperature controlled at 140-150 degrees Celsius;
[0043] When the machine needs to be restarted after shutdown, the main shaft 2 cannot rotate before restarting because the sulfur is in a solidified state; the solidified sulfur needs to be melted by passing steam; the steam is introduced through the steam pipe inlet 20, reaches the air cavity 17 through the first steam pipe 21, passes through the air cavity 17 through the second steam pipe 22 and enters the insulation cavity of the auxiliary impeller 16, is led out from the third steam pipe 23 of the auxiliary impeller 16 and returns, then enters the sliding bearing body 7-1 through the fourth steam pipe 24, passes through the sliding bearing, is led out to the steam outlet pipe 25, and then exits from the insulation steam outlet The sulfur is discharged from the outlet 26; in this process, the entire steam pipeline can melt the solidified sulfur in the pump into a liquid state, and can be transported normally. At this time, the motor main shaft 2 can be driven to rotate, and the sulfur flows upward along the main shaft 2 in the pump through the rotation of the impeller 5 of the pump. At this time, the medium is provided with an upward force by the impeller 5; the medium is pressed downward by the upper auxiliary impeller 16, so as to achieve sealing and prevent the medium from entering the air cavity 17 above the auxiliary impeller 16; thereby reducing the heat conduction from the steam insulation area to the bearing cooling area, and achieving an isolation effect;
[0044] In the above process, when the pump works normally, most of the sulfur is discharged from the liquid outlet pipe 13 through the main flow channel, and the remaining sulfur flows upward through the gap of the sliding bearing and enters the space formed by the inner wall 18.1 of the annular cavity. After entering, a part of the sulfur flows back to the sulfur tank through the first leakage hole 19, the sulfur pressure is reduced, and the remaining sulfur enters the cavity above the sliding bearing, and the sulfur is sealed in the cavity below the auxiliary impeller 16 through the dynamic sealing action of the auxiliary impeller 16; if the auxiliary impeller 16 is not completely sealed, at this time, a small amount of remaining sulfur leaks through the seal of the auxiliary impeller 16 to the upper cylindrical tube 1.1, and flows back to the sulfur tank through the second leakage hole 29 of the upper cylindrical tube 1.1.
