[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] See also Figure 1-9 A low stress reciprocating pump comprises a body 1 and a pump body 2 arranged at the output end of the body 1, wherein the body 1 comprises at least one group of plunger assemblies 11 reciprocating in the pump body 2,

[0031] The body 1 includes thickened plates 12 disposed on both sides, and first connecting bolts 13 penetrating the thickened plates 12; the front end of the first connecting bolts 13 is fixedly connected to the pump body 2 so as to fix the body 1 and the pump body 2 and concentrate stress in the thickened plates 12;

[0032] It also includes a box body 3 sleeved on the outside of the plunger assembly 11; the fuselage 1 includes a double vertical plate structure 14 arranged at the front end, and the box body 3 is arranged in the double vertical plate structure 14 to enable the box body 3 to obtain radial positioning; the double vertical plate structure 14 includes a clamping flange 141, one end of the box body 3 is clamped by the clamping flange 141, and the other end is against the pump body 2 to reduce the stress in the box body 3.

[0033] In actual use, the fuselage 1 of the present invention includes a thickened plate 12 and a first connecting bolt 13 that penetrates the thickened plate 12. The front end of the first connecting bolt 13 is fixedly connected to the pump body 2. Therefore, in the connection between the fuselage 1 and the pump body 2, the stress is mainly borne by the fuselage 1, and the pump body 2 is subjected to less stress and has a smaller force-bearing area, thereby reducing the probability of cracking and damage of the pump body 2. The wall thickness of the thickened plate 12 is thicker and stronger than that of other positions of the fuselage 1, so it can withstand greater stress and reduce the probability of cracking and damage of the fuselage 1; the fuselage 1 includes a double vertical plate structure 14, and the box body 3 is arranged in the double vertical plate structure 14 and is clamped by a clamping flange 141, so that the box body 3 is connected to the fuselage 1 and the pump body 2 as a whole, reducing the radial force and axial force on the box body 3, thereby reducing the probability of cracking and damage of the box body 3.

[0034] Please continue reading Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , which also includes a tapered positioning sleeve 4; the tapered positioning sleeve 4 includes a tapered body 41 arranged at the front end, and a tapered hole 21 is provided at the rear end inside the pump body 2; the tapered outer wall of the tapered body 41 fits with the tapered inner wall of the tapered hole 21 to reduce the stress in the box body 3.

[0035] When in use, the design of the conical body 41 at the front end of the conical positioning sleeve 4 allows the conical outer wall of the conical body 41 to fit with the conical inner wall of the conical hole 21, thereby sharing the stress borne by the box body 3, the fuselage 1, and the pump body 2 during connection and operation, thereby reducing the probability of cracking and damage of the three.

[0036] Please continue reading Figure 1-3 , wherein the thickened plate 12 includes a first bolt hole 121 penetrating the interior and a force step 122 arranged at one end away from the pump body 2; the first connecting bolt 13 passes through the first bolt hole 121, and the rear end is fixedly connected to the force step 122 by a nut so as to tighten the pump body 2.

[0037] When in use, through the above design, the stress concentration point connecting the fuselage 1 and the pump body 2 can be set on the thickened plates 12 with higher strength on both sides, thereby protecting the fuselage 1 and the pump body 2.

[0038] It is worth mentioning that the specific connection method between the fuselage 1 and the pump body 2 is:

[0039] S1: threading on both sides of the rear end surface of the pump body 2;

[0040] S2: Pass the first connecting bolt 13 through the first bolt hole 121 and connect the front end to the pump body 2;

[0041] S3: a nut is arranged at the rear end of the first bolt hole 121, and the nut is closely matched with the force step 122;

[0042] S4: At least two groups of first connecting bolts 13 are arranged in each thickened plate 12.

[0044] When in use, the box body 3 is connected to the pump body 2 by the clamping action of the clamping flange 141, and the second connecting bolt 144 passes through the mounting holes 146 in the clamping flange 141, the first vertical plate 142 and the second vertical plate 143 at one time, and is fixedly connected to the corresponding hole position in the pump body 2. Compared with directly arranging fasteners on the main body of the box body 3 to connect with the pump body 2, the use of the clamping flange 141 can make the radial force and axial force on the box body 3 smaller, thereby preventing the box body 3 from cracking; the positioning hole 145 cooperates with the outer side surface of the box body 3, so that the position of the box body 3 is more precise, and the outer wall of the box body 3 is wrapped by the positioning holes 145 in the first vertical plate 142 and the second vertical plate 143 arranged at the front and back, which limits the radial tension of the box body 3 from the front and back positions, further preventing the box body 3 from cracking.

[0045] It is worth mentioning that please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 According to the actual stress conditions, a plurality of second connecting bolts 144 can be evenly arranged around the box body 3 on the clamping flange 141; preferably, the second connecting bolts 144 are implemented as 4 or 6.

[0046] Please continue reading Figure 4-7, wherein the housing 3 includes housing steps 31 respectively arranged at both ends; the rear end face of the pump body 2 is provided with a first step hole 22, and the front end face of the clamping flange 141 is provided with a second step hole 1411; the housing step 31 at the front end cooperates with the first step hole 22, and the housing step 31 at the rear end cooperates with the second step hole 1411.

[0047] When in use, the two ends of the box body 3 are positioned by setting the box body steps 31 at the front and rear ends, and setting the first step hole 22 and the second step hole 1411. With the cooperation of the positioning hole 145, the positioning effect is better, and the box body steps 31 at both ends also have a sealing function.

[0048] Please continue reading Figure 4-7 , wherein the double vertical plate structure 14 further includes an adjusting nut 147 arranged in the clamping flange 141, the box body 3 includes a box body filler 32 arranged inside, and the conical positioning sleeve 4 includes a tubular body 42 arranged at the rear end; the tubular body 42 and the adjusting nut 147 are used to limit the position of the box body filler 32 from the front and rear ends.

[0049] When in use, the tubular body 42 and the adjusting nut 147 can serve as the front stop point and the rear stop point of the box filler 32 to fix the position of the box filler 32; in addition, the adjusting nut 147 is a hollow structure, in which a channel for the plunger assembly 11 to pass through is provided.

[0050] Please continue reading Figure 4-8 , wherein the conical positioning sleeve 4 includes a first channel 43, a second channel 44 and a third channel 45 which are sequentially arranged inside from front to back; a liquid inlet raft 431 is provided in the first channel, and a liquid inlet spring 441 is provided in the second channel 44; the front end of the plunger assembly 11 can be reciprocatedly arranged in the first channel 43 and the second channel 44.

[0051] When in use, the reciprocating motion of the plunger assembly 11 in the first channel 43 and the second channel 44 and the expansion and contraction of the liquid inlet spring 441 can drive the liquid inlet raft 431 to open or close the valve so that gas or liquid can enter the pump body 2.

[0052] Please continue reading Figure 4 The pump body 2 further includes a valve hole 23 arranged at the internal front end; a combination valve 24 is arranged in the valve hole 23, and a valve pressure sleeve 25 is arranged at the front end of the combination valve 24; the combination valve 24 and the valve pressure sleeve 25 are used to cooperate with the liquid inlet raft plate 431 to control the liquid outflow; the front end face of the pump body 2 is provided with a front flange 5.

[0053] During the reciprocating motion of the plunger assembly 11, the liquid inlet raft 431 is also in a repeated opening and closing state. When the liquid inlet raft 431 is opened, gas or liquid can enter the pump body 2 from the flow channel in the combination valve 24. When the liquid inlet raft 431 is closed, the flow channel in the combination valve 24 is closed, and gas or liquid cannot enter.

[0054] Please continue reading Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 , wherein the fuselage 1 further includes a power end crankshaft 15, a connecting rod 16 arranged on the power end crankshaft 15, and a piston structure 17 matched with the connecting rod 16; the plunger assembly 11 is connected to the piston structure 17.
