Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of plunger pump structural design, and more specifically to a slant-shaft plunger pump. Background Technology

[0002] Modern hydraulic pumps are used throughout the entire machinery industry. They have a variety of structures, with piston pumps being the most common. Piston pumps are divided into swashplate piston pumps and swashplate piston pumps. Swashplate piston pumps operate with a specific transmission sequence: the spindle drives the pistons, which in turn drive the cylinder block. Because there is an angle between the spindle and cylinder block axes, the suction and discharge of oil are achieved. The spindle does not pass through the cylinder block, allowing the cylinder block to be very small and experiencing minimal overturning moment. The cylinder block end face fits evenly with the distributor plate, resulting in low leakage and high volumetric efficiency. However, because the spindle of a swashplate piston pump is subjected to considerable axial and radial forces, this can easily lead to increased leakage between the return plate and the spindle plate. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a slant-shaft piston pump, comprising a housing, a main shaft, a support plate, a mounting block, a distribution plate, and a rear end cover; the main shaft is rotatably and sealingly disposed within the housing, driving the piston and cylinder to rotate; the housing is provided with a distribution plate for drawing and discharging oil from the cylinder, and the distribution plate is provided with a high-pressure waist-shaped groove for discharging oil from the cylinder; the rear end cover is fixedly disposed within the housing and has a high-pressure oil passage communicating with the high-pressure waist-shaped groove of the distribution plate; the support plate is coaxially fitted with the main shaft and fits tightly against the main shaft, and a mounting groove is provided on the end face of the support plate near the main shaft, the mounting groove communicating with an oil passage; an oil passage is provided on the housing communicating with the high-pressure oil passage and the oil passage; the mounting block is installed within the mounting groove, and an oil groove and a through hole are provided at the bottom of the mounting block, through which oil enters the oil groove to form an oil film.

[0009] Further, one end of the plurality of plungers is ball-hinged on the main shaft, and the other end penetrates into the cylinder cavity to slide freely, and a certain angle is formed between the main shaft and the cylinder.

[0010] Further, when the cylinder rotates under the driving of the main shaft, the plungers gradually extend outward in the half circle of the rotation from bottom to top in the cylinder, the sealed working cavity volume of the cylinder is continuously increased, and the oil is sucked through the low-pressure waist-shaped groove of the distribution disc; when the plungers gradually retract in the cylinder in the half circle of the rotation from top to bottom, the sealed working cavity volume of the cylinder is continuously reduced, and the oil is discharged outward from the high-pressure waist-shaped groove of the distribution disc.

[0011] Further, the main shaft is provided with a main shaft disc near one end of the plunger, and a return disc is fixedly arranged on the main shaft disc to press the ball head part of the plunger on the main shaft disc.

[0014] (2) The present application avoids the defect of insufficient installation space caused by using multiple bearings, reduces the cost, and effectively reduces the stress of the bearing and improves the service life of the bearing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to illustrate and explain the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0023] In order to solve the problems of large leakage probability and reduced bearing life in the prior art, the existing inclined shaft type plunger pump adopts multiple bearings to bear axial force and radial force, which not only occupies a large space, but also has high cost and poor effect. Figures 1-4 As shown in the drawings, the present application provides an inclined shaft type plunger pump, which comprises a shell 1, a main shaft 3, a support disc 6, a mounting block 7, a distribution disc 11, and a rear end cover 12. The main shaft 3 is rotatably and sealingly arranged in the shell 1 to drive the plunger 9 and the cylinder body 10 to rotate. The shell 1 is provided with the distribution disc 11 for sucking and discharging oil from the cylinder body 10, and the distribution disc 11 is provided with a high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1 for discharging oil from the cylinder body 10. The rear end cover 12 is fixedly arranged with the shell 1 and is provided with a high-pressure oil passage 12.1 in communication with the high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1 of the distribution disc 11. The support disc 6 is coaxially matched with the main shaft 3 and closely adheres to the main shaft 3. The mounting groove 6.1 is arranged on the end face of the support disc 6 close to the main shaft 3, and the oil passage 6.2 is communicated with the mounting groove 6.1. The oil passage 1.1 is arranged on the shell 1 to communicate the high-pressure oil passage 12.1 and the oil passage 6.2. The mounting block 7 is arranged in the mounting groove 6.1, and the oil groove 7.1 and the through hole 7.2 are arranged on the bottom of the mounting block 7. The oil enters the oil groove 7.2 through the through hole 7.2 to form an oil film

[0024] The main shaft 3 has a stepped structure around the circumference, the circumference of the support disc 6 is matched with the main shaft 3, and the mounting groove 6.1 is arranged on the axial face and the circumferential face of the support disc 6, respectively. Preferably, the support disc 6 closely adheres to the main shaft 3. It should be noted that only when the support disc 6 is fixedly connected with the shell 1, the oil passage 6.2 can be kept in communication with the high-pressure oil passage 12.1.

[0025] The high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1 of the distribution disc 11 is connected to the oil groove 7.1 on the mounting block 7 by introducing the support disc 6 and the mounting block 7 and opening the oil path on the rear end cover 12 and the shell 1, and a high-pressure oil film is formed between the main shaft 1.1 and the mounting block 7, which supports the main shaft by sliding hydrostatic pressure, so as to offset the axial force and radial force borne by the main shaft 1, thereby reducing the force borne by the main shaft 1, improving the compression force between the return disc 8 and the main shaft disc 4, reducing leakage, avoiding the defect of insufficient installation space caused by using multiple bearings, and effectively improving the bearing life and preventing damage to the inclined shaft type plunger pump, thereby improving the service life of the pump. It should be noted that the main shaft 3 is specially provided with an oil path and the support disc 6, which is convenient for processing and reduces the processing cost in the actual production process,

[0026] In order to realize the oil sealing between the mounting block 7 and the shell 1, the sealing ring 13 is installed on the mounting block 7 in the preferred case. Preferably, the mounting block 7 is provided with a notch near the circumference of the bottom of the mounting groove 6.1, and the sealing ring 13 is sleeved on the notch, so as to realize better sealing. More preferably, the depth of the mounting groove 6.1 is greater than the thickness of the mounting block 7, and the sealing ring 13 protrudes from the notch when it is installed on the mounting block 7. In the installed state, the total thickness of the sealing ring 13 and the mounting block 7 is greater than the depth of the mounting groove 6.1. Through the setting of the preferred technical solution, the gap between the mounting block 7 and the main shaft 3 can be automatically adjusted according to the high-pressure oil pressure generated by the high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1, the impact of the high-pressure oil is buffered, and the high-pressure oil film remains relatively stable.

[0027] The main shaft 3 is connected with the shell 1 through the rolling bearing 5, and the right end surface is in contact with the rolling bearing 5. The support disc 6 limits the position of the rolling bearing 5. A single rolling bearing 5 is used to connect the shell 1 and the main shaft, which occupies a small space and has low cost, and can bear axial force and radial force.

[0028] In order to limit the position of the main shaft 3 and the support disc 6, the front end cover 2 is fixedly installed on the shell 1 away from the rear end cover in the preferred case, and the main shaft 3 passes through it.

[0029] In order to enable the plunger 9 to be hinged with the main shaft under small friction and to be slidingly connected with the cylinder body 10, in the preferred case, a plurality of the plunger 9 is hingedly connected at one end to the main shaft 3 and freely slides into the cavity of the cylinder body 10 at the other end, and a certain angle is formed between the main shaft 3 and the cylinder body 10.

[0030] The specific working process of the above technical solution is as follows: when the cylinder body 10 rotates under the driving of the main shaft 3, the plunger 9 gradually extends outward in the cylinder body 10 in a half rotation from bottom to top, the sealed working cavity volume of the cylinder body 10 is continuously increased, and the oil is sucked through the low-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.2 of the distribution disc 11; when the plunger 9 gradually retracts in the cylinder body 10 in a half rotation from top to bottom, the sealed working cavity volume of the cylinder body 10 is continuously reduced, and the oil is discharged outward from the high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1 of the distribution disc 11. Through the above process, the oil suction and discharge action is realized.

[0031] In the prior art, in order to stably fix the plunger 9 on the main shaft 3, in a preferred case, the main shaft 3 is provided with a main shaft disc 4 near one end of the plunger 9, and a return disc 8 is fixedly arranged on the main shaft disc 4 to press the ball head part of the plunger 9 on the main shaft disc 4.

[0032] The specific working process of the present application is as follows: the main shaft 3 is driven to rotate by an external motor, the main shaft 3 drives the plunger 9, and the plunger 9 drives the cylinder body 10 to rotate. Since there is an angle between the main shaft 3 and the cylinder body 10, the oil suction and discharge action is completed during the rotation. After the high-pressure oil enters the high-pressure waist-shaped groove 11.1, it enters the bottom oil groove 7.1 of the mounting block 7 through the rear end cover 12, the shell 1 and the support disc 6, and an oil film is formed between the main shaft 3 and the support disc 6 to offset the axial force and radial force borne by the main shaft, thereby reducing the stress on the main shaft, improving the pressing force between the return disc and the main shaft disc, reducing leakage, avoiding the defects of insufficient installation space caused by using multiple bearings, effectively improving the service life of the bearings and preventing damage to the inclined shaft type plunger pump, and improving the service life of the pump.

In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, various possible combinations are not described again by the present application.

[0035] In addition, various different embodiments of the present application can also be combined in any manner, as long as they do not deviate from the idea of the present application, and they should also be considered as disclosed by the present application.
