Figure 1-2As shown: the connection structure of the open surface of the double-shell multistage pump provided by the present invention includes: an inner shell 2, an outer cylinder 1 sleeved on the outside of the inner shell 2, the outer cylinder 1 is provided with an inlet flange 11 and an outlet flange 12, the outer cylinder 1 and the pump cover 3 together form a sealed cavity, the inner shell 2 is sealed in the sealed cavity, the rotor component 4 is installed inside the inner shell 2, and together with the transition flow channel of the inner shell 2, it constitutes a flow component of the pump, the inner shell 2 includes an upper shell 21 and a lower shell 22, the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 are arranged in a central symmetrical manner, an open flange surface is provided between the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22, connecting devices 23 are provided on both sides of the open flange surface, a limiting mechanism 24 is provided on each of the four corners of the open surface, an inner shell anti-rotation positioning block 25 is provided on the high-pressure side end face of the inner shell, and an inner shell circumferential positioning block 26 is provided on the middle plane on the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22.
[0037] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the connection device in the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown: the connecting device 23 includes an inner surface 231 and an outer surface 232 (see Figure 2 ); the inner connecting surface 231 and the outer connecting surface 232 are clearance-matched, and the inner connecting surface 231 and the outer connecting surface 232 can limit the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 to prevent the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 from sliding relative to each other in the radial direction. The inner connecting surface 231 is provided with a threaded hole; the outer connecting surface 232 is provided with a corresponding through hole; the connecting device 23 is provided with a fastening device, which includes multiple sets of gaskets 234 and hexagon socket head screws 235.
[0038] The inner housing anti-rotation positioning block 25 (see Figure 1 and 2 ) is to prevent the inner housing 2 from rotating in the inner cavity of the outer housing 1 during the operation of the pump, so as to ensure the normal operation of the pump and extend its service life. The inner housing anti-rotation positioning block 25 is arranged on the high-pressure side end face of the inner housing.
[0039] The inner shell circumferential positioning block 26 (see Figure 1 and 2 ) so that the inner shell 2 does not produce axial displacement and circumferential movement with the outer cylinder 1. The inner shell circumferential positioning block 26 is arranged on the middle plane of the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22.
[0040] During normal operation of the pump of the present invention, the pressure outside the inner housing 2 is greater than the internal pressure, that is, the inner housing 2 is subjected to external pressure. However, during the start-up of the pump, when the outer side of the inner housing 2 is not filled with liquid, the internal pressure of the inner housing 2 is greater than the external pressure, and a gap may be generated between the middle opening flange surfaces of the upper housing 21 and the lower housing 22. In order to prevent this possibility, a limit mechanism 24 is provided. Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the limiting structure in the present invention, Figure 5 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the limiting structure in the present invention, Figure 6-1 It is a schematic diagram of the wedge block structure in the present invention, Figure 6-2 Schematic diagram of the position of the wedge block cone angle θ in the present invention. As shown in the above figure: a total of 4 limiting mechanisms 24 are set, and one limiting mechanism 24 is set in each of the four directions of the middle open surface. Each limiting mechanism 24 includes a wedge block 241, a trapezoidal groove 243 and two set screws 242. The wedge block 241 is shown in Figure 6, and its cross-section is trapezoidal. The wedge block cap can be set to be circular, triangular, polygonal, etc. The two parallel surfaces of the trapezoidal cross-section cut the wedge cap flat to keep it in the same plane. The wedge block 241 is installed in the trapezoidal groove 243, and the wedge block 241 is tightened with a set screw 242.
[0041] In the specific implementation of the present invention, the taper angle θ of the wedge block 241 can be 5 to 12°. In the specific implementation, the taper angle θ of the trapezoidal groove 243 and the taper angle θ of the wedge block 241 are the same. The distance between the small end face of the trapezoidal groove 243 and the small end face of the wedge block 241 can be 2 to 5 mm. The distance between the large end face of the trapezoidal groove 243 and the large end face of the wedge block 241 is 1 / 3 of the width of the wedge block. The length of the trapezoidal groove can be 2 to 5 mm longer than the length of the wedge block. The above parameters can be modified to other values or ranges according to specific needs.
[0042] The assembly and disassembly processes of the present invention are respectively as follows:
[0043] Inner housing assembly process steps:
[0044] 1. Put the upper shell 21 on the lower shell 22 and adjust the center;
[0045] 2. Install the wedge block 241 in the trapezoidal groove 243 and tighten the wedge block 241 with the set screw 242;
[0046] 3. Install the gasket 234 and the hexagon socket head screw 235.
[0047] During the disassembly process, when the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 of the inner shell 2 are separated, the following steps are followed:
[0048] 1. Remove the set screw 242 of the wedge block first;
[0049] 2. Use a tool to pry the wedge block 241 loose, and use the tool to clamp the wedge block cap to pull out the wedge block 241;
[0050] 3. Then remove the hexagon socket head screw 235 and the gasket 234 on the split face connection device 23;
[0051] 4. Finally, separate the upper shell 21 from the lower shell 22 to complete the disassembly of the inner shell 2.
[0052] The present invention adopts the inner housing anti-rotation positioning block 25 to prevent the inner housing 2 from rotating in the inner cavity of the outer housing 1 during the operation of the pump, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the pump and extending its service life.
[0053] In the present invention, the inner shell circumferential positioning block 26 is adopted to prevent the inner shell 2 from axial displacement and circumferential movement with the outer cylinder 1 .
[0054] The radial dimension of the inner casing of the present invention is reduced, so that the radial dimension of the whole pump is small, the transportation and installation space is reduced, the weight of the pump body is reduced, and the cost is reduced. The open surface connection method of the present invention reduces the difficulty of casting the open surface in the inner casing.
