Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of centrifugal pumps, and in particular relates to a self-balancing segmented multi-stage centrifugal pump. Background Art

[0002] Centrifugal pumps come in a variety of styles, including vertical, horizontal, single-stage, multi-stage, single-suction, double-suction, and self-priming. Centrifugal pumps operate by centrifugally moving water as the impeller rotates. Before starting the pump, the pump casing and suction pipe are filled with water. The motor is then started, causing the pump shaft to rotate the impeller and water at high speed. This centrifugal motion causes the water to be thrown toward the outer edge of the impeller and flow through the flow channel of the volute casing into the pump's pressure water line. Multistage centrifugal pumps have two or more impellers on the pump shaft. Because multistage centrifugal pumps experience 2-5mm of axial drift during operation, some multistage centrifugal pumps use a double-suction design to achieve self-balancing, such as the single-casing, segmented, self-balancing horizontal multistage centrifugal pump disclosed in CN204163994U. Other multistage centrifugal pumps typically incorporate a balancing disc and balancing pipe structure on the tail blade side, such as the novel double-balanced multistage centrifugal pump disclosed in CN115596674A.

[0003] Existing patent CN102913452A is a first-stage symmetrical double-suction segmented multistage centrifugal pump, which includes a pump shaft and several impeller groups fixed on the pump shaft. A pair of impeller groups are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the suction end of the centrifugal pump. The ends of the symmetrically arranged impeller groups are arranged face to face. The impeller groups located at the suction end and the discharge end of the centrifugal pump are evenly arranged in the same direction. The pair of impeller groups symmetrically arranged on both sides of the suction end of the centrifugal pump include a first-stage impeller and a first-stage counter-impeller. The first-stage impeller is equipped with a first-stage guide vane, and the first-stage counter-impeller is equipped with a first-stage counter-guide vane. The axial forces generated by the first-stage impeller and the first-stage counter-impeller are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. In addition to the design of a balancing disc and a balancing pipe, this multistage centrifugal pump also proposes a design of positive and negative first blades. However, such centrifugal pumps have the following problems in actual operation: first, one interface of the balancing pipe used in conjunction with the balancing disc is connected to the balancing chamber on the same side of the balancing disc, and the other interface is connected to the suction end of the centrifugal pump. The balancing principle of the balancing disc is to achieve balance by the pressure on the impeller side and the balance disc side. 50%-80% of the axial force acts on the balancing seat where the balancing disc is installed. The positive and negative design is adopted in the first blade, and the balancing effect on the axial force generated by the continuous rotation of the subsequent impeller and fluid is not obvious; second, the guide vane in the centrifugal pump is not very stable. The guide vanes in the centrifugal pump are similar and are all arranged at the edge of the impeller where the water flows out. They generally only serve to guide the flow, and the water flows to the back of the impeller by relying on fluid dynamics and inertia to enter the next impeller, causing most of the fluid to participate in the axial force balance process, increasing the instability coefficient. Furthermore, although the front and rear impellers are designed to be installed in sections, the inspection and disassembly process needs to start from the motor and coupling position, and then disassemble them one by one. In addition, the motor and pump body are usually connected to the base of the workshop or pump room, which increases the intensity of disassembly and maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0033] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features therein can be combined with each other unless they conflict. For the convenience of description, the words "upper", "lower", "left", and "right" appearing below only indicate the upper, lower, left, and right directions consistent with the drawings themselves and do not limit the structure.

[0034] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0035] Examples, such as Figures 1-11As shown, the self-balancing segmented multi-stage centrifugal pump provided by the present invention includes a motor 1 and a pump body, a coupling 2 is provided at the power output end of the motor 1, a pump shaft 3 connected to the coupling 2 is provided at the center of the pump body, and a plurality of bearings 4 are provided at both ends of the pump shaft 3. The pump body includes a front shell assembly 5 and a rear shell assembly 6, and the front shell assembly 5 and the rear shell assembly 6 are connected by a plurality of long rod clamping bolts 7. The front shell assembly 5 and the rear shell assembly 6 are sequentially provided with a first blade assembly, a plurality of middle blade assemblies and a tail blade assembly, and the first blade assembly and the tail blade assembly are respectively provided with a water inlet pipe port 10 and a water outlet pipe port 11, and the water inlet pipe port 10 is provided with a balancing pipe 12 connected to the rear shell assembly 6, and the interior of the rear shell assembly 6 is a balancing chamber 13 and a balancing seat 14 and a balancing disk 15 are provided in the balancing chamber 13. Among them, the working space of the front shell assembly 5 and the rear shell assembly 6 maintains a certain sealing basis with the working space of the impeller; the long rod clamping bolt 7 is used to clamp the front shell assembly 5, a tail blade assembly, the first blade assembly and the tail blade assembly and the rear shell assembly 6; there are at least two sets of bearings 4 in the front shell assembly 5 and the rear shell assembly 6, and the pump shaft 3 is concentrically supported by the bearings 4 to provide a stable working axis for the pump shaft 3; the balancing plate 15, the balancing seat 14, the balancing chamber 13 and the balancing pipe 12 constitute a basic channeling balancing mechanism, which is used to balance the front and rear side pressures of all impellers, thereby providing self-balancing protection for the pump shaft 3 and all impellers.

[0036] In order to improve the self-balancing performance of the present invention, the first blade assembly and the middle blade assembly provided by the present invention are both single impeller assemblies 8 and the front and rear adjacent single impeller assemblies 8 are nested with each other. The single impeller assembly 8 includes a pair of half blade shells 81. The center of the half blade shell 81 is provided with an impeller mounting hole 82. The half blade shell 81 is provided with a guide vane 83 on the front side of the impeller mounting hole 82. A solid shaft single impeller 84 is provided in the impeller mounting hole 82. The tail blade assembly is a double impeller assembly 9 and is nested with the single impeller assembly 8 and the rear shell assembly 6 on its rear side. The double impeller assembly 9 includes a tail blade shell 91, the tail blade shell 9 1 is provided with a semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 inside, and a semi-solid shaft turbine 16 is provided inside the front shell assembly 5. The shaft end of the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the solid shaft single impeller 84 adjacent to the front and rear, and the shaft end of the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 are sequentially connected through multiple spline hoops 17. The pump shaft 3 includes a front pump shaft 31 and a rear pump shaft 32. The front pump shaft 31 is connected to the semi-solid shaft turbine 16 from front to rear. The semi-solid shaft turbine 16 is used to compress water to flow toward the first blade assembly. The rear pump shaft 32 is connected to the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 from rear to front.

[0037] Specifically, in addition to adopting the design of the balancing disc 15 and the balancing pipe 12 to balance the axial leakage, the present invention also adopts the design of the double impeller assembly 9 for the tail blade assembly. The semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 is two impellers welded back to back. The flow channel direction inside the impeller is the same, but the direction of the water inlet and outlet is different. In particular, the impeller facing the side of the balancing seat 14 can spit part of the water between the two to the water outlet pipe 11 by rotation, thereby reducing the pressure difference on both sides of the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92, so it can also balance part of the axial force generated by the continuous operation of the multi-stage single impeller assembly 8, thereby improving the self-balancing performance of the equipment. Furthermore, the guide vane 83 designed in the present invention, on the one hand, can improve its guide effect as a guide structure through the extension design on the back of the solid shaft single impeller 84, and cause the structure to divide the fluid on the rear side of the solid shaft single impeller 84 and the occupancy ratio of the structure itself, which can reduce the real-time impact of the fluid pressure on the rear side of the solid shaft single impeller 84. On the other hand, the guide vane 83 can also play the role of axial support, while reducing the instability factors of the fluid, it plays the role of balancing the axial force, further improving the self-balancing performance of the present equipment.

[0038] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, the self-balancing segmented multi-stage centrifugal pump provided by the present invention divides the pump shaft 3 into two, and establishes a transmission relationship with the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the solid shaft single impeller 84 and the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92, so as to realize effective power transmission on the one hand, and on the other hand, for inspecting the middle part of the pump body, namely the first blade assembly, the middle blade assembly and the tail blade assembly, the long rod clamping bolt 7 can be removed first, and then the half blade shell 81 can be removed, and then the first blade assembly, the middle blade assembly and the tail blade assembly can be disassembled from the middle, which can effectively reduce the workload of disassembly and maintenance, and the design is reasonable and conducive to improving the actual working efficiency of the system.

[0039] like Figure 6 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the spline hoop 17 provided by the present invention includes a pair of half-hoops 171, each of which is provided with a plurality of spline grooves 172 on its inner side. The half-hoops 171 are provided with a plurality of pairs of countersunk threaded holes 173 spaced apart from the spline grooves 172. The shaft ends of the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the adjacent solid shaft single impeller 84, and the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 are all provided with splines 174 for mating with the spline grooves 172. The splines 174 are provided with threaded blind holes 175 corresponding to the countersunk threaded holes 173. The threaded blind holes 175 and the countersunk threaded holes 173 are connected by countersunk bolts 176. The splines 174 and the spline grooves 172 provide multiple key connection bases, and the half-hoops 171 are buckled onto the connection position of the front and rear solid shafts in a half-sleeve manner. The countersunk bolts 176 serve to fix the spline, thereby ensuring the synchronous transmission relationship between the front and rear solid shafts. At the same time, the half-and-half design of the spline hoop 17 is also to facilitate the reasonable disassembly of the adjacent solid shaft single impeller 84, semi-solid shaft turbine 16, and semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92. It should be noted that the diameter of the solid portion of the solid shaft single impeller 84 and the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 is smaller than the caliber of the impeller inlet, which does not affect the passage of the fluid through the impeller flow channel; the shaft end of the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the front and rear adjacent solid shaft single impeller 84, and the shaft end of the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92 are designed with splines, and the outermost side of the spline 174 is on the same curved surface as the outermost side of the solid shaft, and the countersunk bolt 176 is also a concealed connection design, so it will not significantly affect the driving effect of the impeller on the fluid.

[0040] like Figure 4 and Figure 8As shown, the half-impeller shell 81 provided by the present invention includes an outer shell 811, and a sleeve 812 and a lip 813 are respectively provided at both ends of the outer shell 811. The inner side of the outer shell 811 is provided with a partition 814 that divides the inner side into two interconnected spaces in front and back. The impeller mounting hole 82 is provided at the center of the partition 814, and the outer side of the outer shell 811 is provided with a plurality of axial positioning protrusions 815 distributed at intervals. One end of the axial positioning protrusion 815 is provided with a positioning blind hole 816 and the other end thereof is provided with a positioning pin 817 for cooperating with the positioning blind hole 816. Specifically, the sleeves 812 and lips 813 of adjacent single impeller assemblies 8 are nested with each other, which not only plays a sealing role, but also plays a docking and centering role; a working chamber for the solid shaft single impeller 84 and the guide vane 83 is formed between the partitions 814 of the adjacent single impeller assemblies 8, and the working chamber is also open to the left and right during the disassembly and assembly process, which can reduce the assembly difficulty of the device; the axial positioning protrusion 815 increases the sealing surface of the front and rear single impeller assemblies 8 on the one hand, and provides a processing surface and a welding surface for the positioning pin 817 and the positioning blind hole 816 on the other hand. The processed positioning pin 817 and positioning blind hole 816 can play a positioning role, especially the shell parts of all the front and rear single impeller assemblies 8 remain relatively fixed in the working state, and the position of the guide vane 83 is also determined after assembly, which is conducive to ensuring the assembly accuracy of the solid shaft single impeller 84 and ensuring the overall driving effect of the guide vane 83 and the solid shaft single impeller 84 on the fluid. Regarding the sealing design of the front and rear single impeller assemblies 8, before assembly is completed, a layer of sealant can be applied on the sleeves 812 and lips 813 of the front and rear half-blade shells 81, and a layer of sealant can be applied on the mating surfaces of the half-blade shells 81 to improve the overall sealing performance of the equipment after assembly.

[0041] like Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the side of the partition 814 provided by the present invention opposite the guide vane 83 has a stepped structure. The guide vane 83 includes an annular blade segment 831 corresponding to the plate surface of the partition 814. One side of the annular blade segment 831 is supported and cooperated with the support ring protrusion 85 provided on the back of the solid shaft single impeller 84. The inner side of the annular blade segment 831 is provided with multiple support segments 832 connected to the partition 814. The adjacent support segments 832 form a diversion channel for the passage of fluid. The partition 814 and the guide vane 83 adopt a stepped design, and the diversion channel formed includes a horizontal portion and an inclined portion. The end of the inclined portion faces the water inlet of the solid shaft single impeller 84. The water discharged from the edge of the impeller enters the horizontal portion under the action of kinetic energy and inertia, and then flows along the inclined portion to the water inlet of the solid shaft single impeller 84. In this way, the annular blade segment 831 and the solid shaft single impeller 84 have a certain overlap in the axial direction. Within this overlap, a portion of the fluid pressure acts directly on the half-impeller casing 81, reducing the pressure acting on the back of the solid shaft single impeller 84. Furthermore, two or three supporting annular protrusions 85 can be designed on the back of the solid shaft single impeller 84. While ensuring the fluid path is connected, the annular blade segment 831 can reasonably support the back of the solid shaft single impeller 84, balancing some of the axial thrust, thereby improving the self-balancing performance of the device.

[0042] To improve self-balancing performance, a spacer sleeve 18 is provided between the semi-solid shaft counter-rotating dual impeller 92 and the balancing disc 15. The balancing seat 14 is provided with an axial countersunk notch 141 at one end facing the spacer sleeve 18, and a stop shoulder 151 is provided at the end of the balancing disc 15 to cooperate with the axial countersunk notch. The spacer sleeve 18 serves to space the balancing disc 15 from the semi-solid shaft counter-rotating dual impeller 92 and transmit axial force to the balancing disc 15. The nested design of the axial countersunk notch 141 and the stop shoulder 151 forms a stop mechanism between the balancing disc 15 and the balancing seat 14. This ensures that the balancing chamber 13 and the working chamber of the semi-solid shaft counter-rotating dual impeller 92 are relatively isolated, ensuring that the balancing range of the balancing disc 15 is within a controllable range, which is larger than the original 2-5mm axial drift. This prevents the device from occasionally entering a pressure-suppressed operating condition, thereby ensuring the device's actual operating performance and, to a certain extent, improving the device's actual service life.

[0043] Furthermore, the present invention provides an annular track 152 on the side of the balancing disc 15 facing away from the limiting shoulder. A spring joint 191 is disposed within track 152. Spring joint 191 is positioned at one end of a spiral spring 19. The spiral radius of spiral spring 19 gradually increases from spring joint 191, and multiple fixings 192 are disposed along the distal end of the spiral spring 19. Fixings 192 are located on the inner wall of balancing chamber 13. The inclusion of spiral spring 19 in balancing chamber 13 provides a certain amount of dynamic elastic force to balancing disc 15, particularly during moments of continuous dynamic self-adjustment, thereby improving the self-balancing performance of the device. Among them, the main body of the fixing part 192 is a fixing tube, the side opening of the fixing tube is used to pass the spiral spring 19, and the end of the fixing tube is screwed in and tightened; the spring joint 191 adopts an I-shaped design, and its I-shaped part is slidably set in the track 152, and its end is connected to the spiral spring by using a side opening + end screw method, so when the balancing disc 15 continues to rotate subsequently on the pump shaft 32, the end of the spiral spring can always support the balancing disc 15, and the spiral spring itself does not produce large-scale distortion.

[0044] To improve the relative sealing between the front pump shaft 31 and the front housing assembly 5, the present invention provides a buffer seal chamber 51 at the center of the front housing assembly 5. A baffle 52 connected to the pump shaft 3 is disposed within the buffer seal chamber 51. Sealing springs 53 are disposed within the buffer seal chamber 51 and are distributed on both sides of the baffle 52. Sealing flanges 54 are disposed at the ends of the sealing springs 53. By designing a pair of sealing flanges 54, the working chamber of the first lobe assembly and the inner chamber of the front housing assembly 5 are sealed. Simultaneously, the axial movement of the baffle 52 is synchronized with the axial movement of the front pump shaft 31. While the front pump shaft 31 is in dynamic self-balancing, the sealing springs 53 support the two sealing flanges 54, further ensuring the actual service life of the bearing 4 within the front housing assembly 5.

[0045] In order to improve the water pumping performance of the centrifugal pump, from a transmission perspective, the present invention provides wear-resistant brake pads 20 at the shaft ends of the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the solid shaft single impeller 84 adjacent to the front and rear, and the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92. The installation of the wear-resistant brake pads 20 increases the friction and tension at the shaft ends of the semi-solid shaft turbine 16, the solid shaft single impeller 84 adjacent to the front and rear, and the semi-solid shaft reverse double impeller 92, thereby improving the synchronous drive performance of the impellers at different positions. Furthermore, the shear load on the countersunk bolts 176 on the spline hoop 17 can be reduced to a certain extent, thereby ensuring the connection reliability of the spline hoop 17 at the shaft end.

[0046] In order to reduce the reverse leakage of water at the installation node of the solid shaft single impeller 84, the present invention provides a sealing ring 21 in the impeller installation hole 82. The sealing ring 21 not only plays the role of sealing the assembly node, but also plays the role of shaft sleeve support based on its smooth surface processing.

[0047] In order to improve the connection reliability of the spline hoop 17 to the shaft end, the spline groove 172 and the spline are designed with an inclined surface. For example, the arc length of the central end of the spline groove 172 is greater than the arc length of the proximal end, and the spline groove 172 and the spline 174 can be nested by press-fitting; in order to reduce the difficulty of disassembling the spline hoop 17, a bull nose through-hole 177 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the spline hoop 17. After removing the countersunk bolt 176, a special tool is inserted into the bull nose through-hole 177 and hooked outward to remove the half hoop sleeve 171.
