Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of deep foundation pit dewatering, in particular to a vacuum pump group with a gas-water separator for foundation pit deep well dewatering. Background Art
[0002] In the deep foundation pit dewatering work, the application of vacuum pumps in vacuum deep well dewatering has the following problems: jet vacuum pumps and mechanical vacuum pumps are the two most commonly used water pumps. Jet vacuum pumps have high wear resistance, so they are beneficial to the extraction of water-gas mixtures during deep foundation pit dewatering. The problem is that the jet vacuum pump has a small amount of air pumped per unit power consumption, the circulating water heats up quickly, and it is easy to lack water. After lack of water, the vacuum degree decreases, resulting in low water pumping efficiency and even inability to pump out water in the deep well; the mechanical vacuum pump has a large amount of air pumped per unit power consumption and high water pumping efficiency, but the problem is that due to the presence of sand and gravel in the water-gas mixture, the mechanical wear is particularly fast and the maintenance cost is particularly high, making it difficult to meet the extraction of water-gas mixtures during deep foundation pit dewatering. If a water-gas separation device is set at the front end of the mechanical vacuum pump, the mechanical wear can be reduced, but the separation device is difficult to drain under a vacuum state, resulting in the embarrassing situation that the mechanical vacuum pump cannot work continuously. How to design a vacuum pump group that can give full play to the advantages of the high pumping efficiency of the mechanical vacuum pump, reduce mechanical wear and extend the service life of the mechanical vacuum pump, while ensuring that the drainage link of water-gas separation does not affect the continuous operation of the mechanical vacuum pump, will be the key to improving the efficiency of deep foundation pit dewatering.

The present invention adopts a combination of a separator body, a mechanical vacuum pump and a water pump. By equipping the mechanical vacuum pump with a separator body, water and gas in the separator body are separated, and the water-gas mixture entering the mechanical vacuum pump is reduced, thereby reducing mechanical wear. By dividing the cavities of the separator body and setting valves, and applying a PLC programmable controller to automatically control the valves, the separator body has the characteristics of water-gas separation in the cavity, pressure conversion and convenient water pump discharge, thereby improving the situation of drainage difficulties in existing separation devices, giving full play to the advantage of high water pumping efficiency of the mechanical vacuum pump, and ensuring that the drainage link of water-gas separation is completed under the continuous working state of the mechanical vacuum pump.

Example
[0052] See also Figure 1 , connect the well pipe interface 16 of the present invention to the water pumping pipe of the deep well of the foundation pit; supply water from the water tank water supply port 43 of the vacuum pump water tank 4 to the vacuum pump water inlet 23 of the mechanical vacuum pump 2;
[0053] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , controlled by the PLC programmable controller of the electric control cabinet 5, the air intake valve 151 on the air intake valve interface 15 is closed in sequence, the connecting switch valve 123 between the first connecting pipe interface 12 and the second connecting pipe interface 13 is opened, and the drain valve 121 on the diaphragm 111 is opened; at the same time, the water pump 3 is turned off, and the water pump check valve 33 is automatically closed.
[0054] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , turn on the mechanical vacuum pump 2, the vacuum pump check valve 24 opens automatically, the pressure in the separator body 1 begins to be reduced, and the water-gas mixture sucked by the water pump in the deep well of the foundation pit flows from the well pipe interface 16 through the water-gas sinking pipe 161 to the water-gas separation chamber 114, implementing water-gas separation, wherein water is deposited in the water-gas separation chamber 114, and the gas is extracted by the mechanical vacuum pump 2 through the vacuum pump air inlet interface 11 of the vacuum chamber 116.
[0055] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2As the water level in the water-gas separation chamber 114 increases, the water level passes over the overflow baffle 113, flows into the first water storage chamber 115, and flows into the second water storage chamber 112 from the first water storage chamber 115 through the drain valve 121; as the water level in the second water storage chamber 112 increases, the water level drives the float switch 122 in the second water storage chamber 112 to rise.
