[0019] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0020] Refer to the attached Figure 1 : In this embodiment 1, a plunger metering pump that is easy to replace comprises a pump head body 1 and a plunger 2, a medium channel that runs longitudinally through the pump head body 1, an inlet one-way valve and an outlet one-way valve are provided on the medium channel, the pump head body 1 is provided with a piston chamber that runs transversely, and the piston chamber is connected to the medium channel; the plunger 2 is movably arranged in a packing chamber, and the packing chamber comprises a mounting cylinder 3, a packing 4, a pressure ring 5, a compression spring 6 and a pressure plate 7. The left end of the mounting cylinder 3 is provided with a flange, and the flange is fixedly connected to the pump head body 1 by bolts, a sealing cover 8 is provided on the flange, and an adjusting screw 9 is threadedly connected to the sealing cover 8. The inner end of the adjusting screw 9 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 7, and the side wall of the mounting cylinder 3 is provided with a through hole 10 that connects the medium channel up and down, and the plunger 2 is slidably installed on the right end of the mounting cylinder 3, and a sealing groove 11 for sealingly connecting the plunger 2 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting cylinder 3, and the packing 4 is installed in the sealing groove 11, and a pressure ring 5 is installed on the left side of the packing 4, and a compression spring 6 is installed between the pressure ring 5 and the pressure plate 7.

[0021] Working Principle: When the packing 4 seal is worn and needs to be replaced, open the plunger pump housing, then unscrew the bolts on the flange of the mounting barrel 3 at the outer end of the pump head to separate it from the pump head body 1. Then use the bolts to pull the mounting barrel 3 out of the pump head body 1, separate the mounting barrel 3 from the plunger 2, and replace the entire component or the packing 4 part. If the plunger 2 is worn, it can be removed from the crosshead connected to it and then removed together with the mounting barrel 3. The entire process does not require disassembly of the pump head body 1, reducing the workload of replacing the plunger and sealing packing, and improving work efficiency. When it is necessary to replace part of the packing 4, the sealing cover 8 can be removed, and then the compression spring 6, pressure ring 5 and packing 4 can be removed in turn using external pliers. After replacing the new one, the sealing cover 8 can be fixed back on the mounting cylinder 3. The pressure plate 7 can be pushed left and right by adjusting the screw 9 to adjust the elastic preload force of the compression spring 6. The compression spring 6 can push the pressure ring 5 to continuously provide compression force for the packing 4, thereby improving the service life and sealing performance of the sealing packing and extending the cycle of regular tightening or replacement of new packing seals. When the plunger 2 moves to the left driven by the reciprocating drive mechanism, the plunger 2 squeezes the medium in the piston chamber and the medium channel from the outlet one-way valve. At this time, the internal medium has a rightward pressure on the pressure ring 5, which will increase the pressing force on the packing 4 and improve the sealing effect. When the plunger 2 moves to the right driven by the motor group and the reciprocating transmission device (crank slider mechanism), the plunger 2 sucks the medium from the inlet one-way valve into the piston chamber and the medium channel. At this time, the plunger 2 has a rightward sliding friction force on the pressure ring 5 (the friction force is less than the elastic preload force of the compression spring 6), which will increase the pressing force on the packing 4 and improve the sealing effect. This ensures the sealing of the plunger 2 during its movement and prevents leakage due to the packing 4.

[0022] As attached Figure 2 As shown in Example 2, on the basis of Example 1, a collecting cylinder 12 is fixedly installed on the pump head body, a first sealing ring 13 is provided between the left end of the collecting cylinder 12 and the mounting cylinder 3, a second sealing ring 14 is provided between the right end of the collecting cylinder 12 and the plunger 2, a collecting interlayer 15 is provided between the collecting cylinder 12 and the mounting cylinder 3, and a collecting hole 16 is provided between the collecting interlayer 15 and the sealing groove 11. The collecting cylinder 12 has a certain airtightness and has the function of preventing dust and leakage, which can reduce the amount of leakage of the medium from the gap between the collecting hole 16, the mounting cylinder and the plunger. Even if a small amount of leakage occurs, it can be temporarily stored in the collecting interlayer 15 of the collecting cylinder 12, which is not easy to cause pollution. When the head of the plunger 2 is relatively thick, the volume of the collecting interlayer 15 decreases and the air pressure increases during the process of the plunger 2 moving right into the collecting interlayer 15, which can further reduce the amount of medium leakage.

[0023] The lower sidewall of the collecting cylinder 12 is provided with a discharge hole 17 that communicates with the collecting interlayer 15. A return pipe 18 is provided between the discharge hole 17 and the input end of the inlet check valve. The return pipe 18 is provided with a reversing valve that is connected to the discharge pipe. If excessive leakage from the collecting cylinder 12 requires recovery, the leakage can flow through the return pipe 18 to the input end of the inlet check valve for reuse. If recovery is not required, the reversing valve can be used to switch the leakage to the discharge pipe for discharge.

[0024] An airtight device is provided in the collecting interlayer 15, and the airtight device includes an energy storage spring 19 and an airtight piston ring 20. The airtight piston ring 20 is in sealed sliding connection with the collecting cylinder 12 and the mounting cylinder 3. The energy storage spring 19 is arranged between the left side of the airtight piston ring 20 and the collecting cylinder 12. The discharge hole 17 is located on the right side of the airtight piston ring 20. The collecting cylinder 12 is provided with a left air nozzle 21 and a right air nozzle 22. The left air nozzle 21 and the right air nozzle 22 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the airtight piston ring 20. When the left air nozzle 21 and the right air nozzle 22 are opened, the right air nozzle 22 can be used to inflate air into the collecting tube 12 through the air pumping device. When the air pressure increases, the airtight piston ring 20 moves to the left to compress the energy storage spring 19, and the air on the left side of the airtight piston ring 20 is discharged through the left air nozzle 21. After the inflation is completed, the left air nozzle 21 and the right air nozzle 22 are closed, and the energy storage spring 19 can push the airtight piston ring 20 to the right to maintain the stability of the air pressure on the right side, thereby further improving the air sealing performance.

[0025] As attached Figure 3 As shown in Example 3, based on Example 2, an air pump 22 is fixedly installed above the collecting tube 12. The air pump 22 includes an air cylinder and an air pump rod. The air cylinder is provided with a one-way air inlet 23 and a one-way air outlet 24. The one-way air inlet 23 and the one-way air outlet 24 are respectively connected to the left air nozzle 21 and the right air nozzle 22 through air pipes. The outer end of the air pump rod is fixedly connected to a damping slip ring 25, and the damping slip ring 25 is connected to the plunger 2 in a damping sliding manner. When the plunger 2 moves left and right, it can drive the damping slip ring 25 to move, and the damping slip ring 25 drives the air pump rod to inflate. The gas in the left air nozzle 21 can be drawn into the right air nozzle 22 through the one-way air inlet 23 and the one-way air outlet 24, thereby maintaining the air pressure difference on both sides of the airtight piston ring 20.

[0026] The damping slip ring 25 is provided with a fastening screw 26 for fixing the plunger 2. The fastening screw 26 can adjust the sliding friction between the damping slip ring 25 and the plunger 2 or lock it to the plunger 2.

[0027] In Example 4, based on Example 1 or 3, a third sealing ring 27 is fixedly mounted on the pressure plate 7 for sealingly connecting the mounting cylinder 3. After the sealing connection, the sealing performance of the left end of the mounting cylinder 3 is improved, and the volume of the piston chamber can be adjusted when the pressure plate 7 moves.

[0028] The two ends of the compression spring 6 are fixedly connected to the pressure ring 5 and the pressure plate 7 respectively. The fixed connection can be selected by welding or other connection forms. When the pressure plate 7 is pulled out, the compression spring 6 can take the pressure ring 5 out together.

[0029] The pressure ring 5 has a tapered expansion opening 28 on one end facing the packing 4. This expansion opening 28 not only radially compresses the packing 4 against the plunger, but also expands to create an interference fit, improving friction and sealing performance with the inner wall of the mounting cylinder. An elastic locking washer 29, a preload spring 30, and an elastic sealing washer 31 are installed between the adjusting screw 9 and the sealing cap 8 to prevent the adjusting screw 9 from loosening.

[0030] Although the invention has been shown and described with reference to preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein within the scope of the claims.
