[0033] It can be understood that the plurality of single circular arc blades 130 correspond to the plurality of three-dimensional twisted blades 220 one by one and are jointly spliced into an impeller blade, and such spliced blade structure has unique advantages, on the one hand, according to the principle of fluid dynamics, a more reasonable blade shape and twist angle can be designed, so that the impeller can better adapt to the flow characteristics of the fluid during operation, improve the fluid conveying efficiency and reduce energy loss; on the other hand, the impeller is divided into two parts for injection molding, and the two parts can be spliced into one after separate injection molding, and the mold only needs two flow channel sliders to complete the injection molding of the blade, which simplifies the mold structure, improves the mold forming efficiency and reduces the processing cost.

[0034] As shown in the figure, the present application provides a water pump, comprising a pump body (not shown in the figure), an impeller body 100 and an impeller seat 200. Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 7As shown in the embodiment of the present application, the upper disc 110 and the lower disc 120 are arranged in parallel, and the single circular-arc blade 130 is arranged perpendicularly to the upper disc 110 and the lower disc 120, wherein the single circular-arc blade 130 and the three-dimensional twisted blade 220 are smoothly connected at the joint position, that is, the three-dimensional twisted blade 220 extends along the curvature of the single circular-arc blade 130 and has a certain twist angle. Through the above structure, the impeller blade formed by the joint of the single circular-arc blade 130 and the three-dimensional twisted blade 220 has double curvature, which improves the operation efficiency of the water pump.

[0035] As shown in the embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in the embodiment of the present application, the single circular-arc blade 130 is provided with a first hot-melt column 131 protruding downward, the base 210 is provided with a first matching hole 211 corresponding to the position of the first hot-melt column 131, the first hot-melt column 131 is inserted and matched with the first matching hole 211, the three-dimensional twisted blade 220 is provided with a second hot-melt column 221 protruding upward, and the upper disc 110 is provided with a second matching hole 111 corresponding to the position of the second hot-melt column 221.

[0036] As shown in the embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a groove 132 is provided at one end of the single arc blade 130 near the three-dimensional twisted blade 220. The groove 132 extends in the vertical direction. A third heat-seal post 222 is provided at one end of the three-dimensional twisted blade 220 near the single arc blade 130. The third heat-seal post 222 extends in the vertical direction and is positioned within the groove 132. A third mating hole 114 is provided at a position on the upper disc 110 corresponding to the third heat-seal post 222. The third heat-seal post 222 engages with the third mating hole 114. The mating engagement of the third heat-seal post 222 and the third mating hole 114 at the blade joint allows for rapid positioning of the impeller body 100 and the impeller seat 200 relative to each other, facilitates quick and accurate docking of the single arc blade 130 and the three-dimensional twisted blade 220, and effectively prevents displacement or deformation of the blades when subjected to force.

The second mating hole 111 is located on the inner side of the boss 113, and the third mating hole 114 is located on the outer side of the boss 113.

[0039] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom surface of the base 210 is provided with an annular mounting wall 230 protruding downward, and the inner wall of the mounting wall 230 is provided with a plurality of teeth 231 in the vertical direction. The teeth 231 are used to cooperate with the internal magnet in the pump body. The internal magnetic structure can drive the impeller body 100 and the impeller seat 200 to rotate as a whole by cooperating with the teeth 231, thereby realizing the magnetic drive connection of the water pump. This magnetic drive method has the advantages of no contact, no wear, and good sealing. It can effectively prevent liquid leakage, improve the safety and reliability of the water pump, and is also conducive to the remote control and automatic operation of the water pump.

[0040] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the mounting wall 230 is penetrated by a plurality of circular holes 232 along its radial direction. The circular holes 232 are used for inserting bolts to connect with the magnetic drive part of the water pump, which simplifies the connection structure and assembly process, reduces the assembly difficulty and cost, and also facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the magnetic drive part when necessary, thereby improving the maintainability of the water pump.

[0041] The above is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and the specific implementation of the present invention should not be considered to be limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, without departing from the concept of the present invention, its architecture can be flexible and varied, and a series of products can be derived. Simply making a few simple deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of patent protection of the present invention as determined by the submitted claims.
