The shift gears on the spline main shaft are meshed and driven with the driven gears on the two water pump main shafts on both sides to realize synchronous speed change.
[0067] The specific implementation process of the multi-speed variable speed water pump of the present invention is as follows:
[0068] Example 1: First gear speed increase
[0069] A speed-increasing multi-speed variable-speed water pump comprises a speed-increasing gearbox and a pump body detachably connected thereto. The speed-increasing gearbox comprises a housing, a spline main shaft, a shift gear, a shift assembly and a water pump main shaft. The main body of the spline main shaft is located inside the housing and is rotatably connected to the housing, and one end of the spline main shaft extends to the outside of the housing to connect to a driving device. A shift gear is arranged along the spline main shaft. The water pump main shaft is arranged parallel to the spline main shaft and one end of the spline main shaft extends into the pump body to drive the pump body to operate. A driven gear meshing with the shift gear is fixed on the water pump main shaft. The shift assembly extends from the outside of the housing to the inside and then connects to the shift gear. The shift gear is driven to engage or separate with the driven gear by pulling the shift assembly to achieve gear shifting. The diameter of the shift gear is larger than the driven gear to achieve a speed-increasing effect.
[0070] In order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the water pump, the pump body of the present invention includes a connecting flange and a pump chamber. The connecting flange is detachably connected to the outer shell of the speed increasing gear box and is sleeved on the outside of the main shaft of the water pump. A cooling water tank is provided on the outer wall of the outer shell, which surrounds the outer side of the bearing and is used to reduce the working temperature of the bearing.

The pump chamber is provided with a water inlet channel on the axial outer side of the water pump main shaft, and a water outlet channel is provided on the circumferential outer side of the water pumping turbine to achieve the inflow and outflow of water.
[0072] In this embodiment, the shift assembly adopts a shift lever, and the end of the shift lever is connected to the shift gear. The shift gear is driven to engage or disengage with the driven gear by pulling the shift lever; when the shift gear is separated from the driven gear, it is neutral gear. At this time, the power input piece at the end of the water pump main shaft is connected to the external power device as the power source of the entire water pump. In this neutral gear state, the water pump is at a normal speed; when the shift gear is engaged with the driven gear, it is first gear. At this time, the spline main shaft is connected to the external power device as the power source of the entire water pump. At this time, since the diameter of the shift gear is larger than the diameter of the driven gear, at the same external drive speed, the speed of the water pump main shaft is increased by one level, thereby achieving a one-speed increase.

[0082] When switching to the first gear, the gear fixing sleeve is pulled to compress the spring so that it is pulled out of the original gear slot. While pulling the gear fixing sleeve, the fixed handle is pushed to drive the shift lever to move until the gear fixing sleeve is aligned with the first gear slot. During the pulling process, the fixed handle moves along the sliding slot; the gear fixing sleeve is released, and under the action of the spring, the gear fixing sleeve automatically rebounds into the first gear slot. At this time, the first gear is meshed with the first gear driven wheel, thereby driving the water pump main shaft to drive the pump body to pump water. At this time, the second gear is idling;
[0083] When switching to the second gear, the operation is similar to switching to the first gear. You only need to insert the gear fixing sleeve into the second gear slot. At this time, the second gear gear is engaged with the second gear driven wheel, thereby driving the water pump main shaft to drive the pump body to pump water. At this time, the first gear gear is idling.
[0084] When speed increase is not required, the water pump is driven by connecting the power input at the end of the water pump main shaft through an external drive device. At this time, in order to avoid wear of the speed increase gearbox, the shift assembly can be pulled to put the speed increase gearbox in neutral, that is, the shift gear is not engaged with any driven gear.
[0085] Embodiment 3: Three-speed speed increase
[0086] The difference from Example 2 is that there are three shift gears, namely, a first gear, a second gear and a third gear. The diameter of the first gear is smaller than that of the second gear, the diameter of the second gear is smaller than that of the third gear, and the third gear is arranged between the first gear and the second gear. There are three driven gears, namely, a first gear driven wheel, a second gear driven wheel and a third gear driven wheel. The third gear driven wheel is arranged between the first gear driven wheel and the second gear driven wheel. The first gear driven wheel is arranged on the same side as the first gear and meshes with the transmission. There are three gear slots, namely, a first gear slot, a second gear slot and a third gear slot. The third gear slot is arranged between the first gear slot and the second gear slot.
[0087] Since the third gear has the largest diameter, it must be in the middle, and the positions of the first gear and the second gear can be interchanged on its left and right sides as needed, and the positions of the first gear driven wheel and the second gear driven wheel can be switched accordingly.
[0088] Based on Examples 1-3, it can be clearly concluded that improvements to fourth, fifth, or even higher gears can be made based on this structure. Therefore, inspired by this structure, higher-gear water pumps based on this structure should also be within the scope of protection of this application.
[0089] Embodiment 4: Second-gear speed increase (Form 2)
[0090] A speed-increasing multi-speed variable-speed water pump comprises a speed-increasing gearbox and a pump body detachably connected thereto. The speed-increasing gearbox comprises a housing, a spline housing and a drive device connected to the outside of the spline housing. Several shift gears with different diameters are arranged along the spline main shaft to achieve different transmission ratios. The water pump main shaft is arranged parallel to the spline main shaft and one end of the water pump main shaft extends into the pump body to drive the pump body to operate. Several driven gears with different diameters that mesh with the shift gear are fixed on the water pump main shaft. The shift assembly extends from the outside of the housing to the inside and then connects to the shift gear. The shift assembly is pulled to drive the shift gear to mesh or separate with the driven gear to achieve gear shifting. The diameter of the shift gear is larger than the driven gear to achieve a speed-increasing effect.
[0091] The shift assembly includes a shift lever, a shift sleeve and a shift handle; the shift sleeve is fixed to the outside of the housing, the shift lever is arranged inside the shift sleeve and its end is connected to the outermost shift gear, the shift sleeve is provided with a plurality of shift slots and sliding slots are provided between the shift slots to allow the shift handle to move;
[0092] The shift handle includes a fixed handle, a spring and a gear fixing sleeve. The fixed handle passes through the gear slot and is connected to the shift rod. The gear fixing sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the fixed handle and the diameter of the end of the gear fixing sleeve that contacts the gear slot is larger than the diameter of the sliding slot and less than or equal to the diameter of the gear slot. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the fixed handle and is inside the gear fixing sleeve. One end of the spring is connected to the end of the fixed handle and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the gear fixing sleeve.
[0093] On this basis, two shift gears are provided, and when one of the shift gears is engaged with the driven gear, the other shift gears idle.
[0094] There are two shift gears, namely, a driving shift gear and a driven shift gear. The driving shift gear is slidably connected to the spline main shaft and rotates synchronously. The driven shift gear is sleeved on the outside of the spline main shaft and is rotationally connected thereto. The shift assembly extends from the outside of the housing to the inside and is connected to the driving shift gear. The driving shift gear is provided with a driving meshing tooth on one side close to the driven shift gear, and the driven shift gear is provided with a driven meshing tooth on one side close to the driving shift gear.
[0095] There are two driven gears, namely the first driven wheel and the second driven wheel. The first driven wheel is arranged on the same side as the active shift gear and meshes with it for transmission; the second driven wheel is arranged on the same side as the driven shift gear, and after the active meshing teeth mesh with the driven meshing teeth, the second driven wheel meshes with the driven shift gear for transmission.
[0096] In order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the water pump, the pump body of the present invention includes a connecting flange and a pump chamber. The connecting flange is detachably connected to the outer shell of the speed increasing gear box and is sleeved on the outside of the main shaft of the water pump. A cooling water tank is provided on the outer wall of the outer shell, which surrounds the outer side of the bearing and is used to reduce the working temperature of the bearing. A circulating water channel connected to the pump chamber is provided inside the side wall of the connecting flange and is connected to the cooling water tank to achieve heat transfer and dissipation.
[0097] In addition, a power input part connected to an external drive device is provided at the power input end of the water pump main shaft; a water pumping turbine connected to the power output end of the water pump main shaft is provided inside the pump chamber. The water pumping turbine can be provided with one or two connected in an inner and outer nesting manner to improve the pumping efficiency. The pump chamber is provided with a water inlet channel on the axial outer side of the water pump main shaft, and a water outlet channel is provided on the circumferential outer side of the water pumping turbine to achieve the inflow and outflow of water.
[0098] In this embodiment, when the active shift gear meshes with the first driven wheel, it is regarded as the first gear. At this time, the driven shift gear is connected to the spline main shaft in rotation, and the internal locking teeth of the active shift gear cooperate with the grooves on the spline main shaft. When the spline main shaft rotates, the active shift gear rotates accordingly and further drives the first driven wheel to rotate and then drives the water pump main shaft to rotate; at this time, the driven shift gear rotates relative to the spline main shaft and cannot effectively drive the second driven wheel to rotate. Referring to the working principle of the shift assembly of embodiment 2, the second gear switching of this example is realized. The difference is that after the second gear is switched in this embodiment, the active meshing teeth on one side of the active shift gear mesh with the driven meshing teeth on one side of the driven shift gear. At this time, when the spline main shaft rotates, the active shift gear can effectively drive the driven shift gear to rotate through the active shift gear, and then the driven shift gear drives the second driven wheel to rotate to drive the water pump main shaft. In the second gear state, the active shift gear is disengaged from the first driven wheel, so the active shift gear will not drive the water pump main shaft to rotate through the first driven wheel.
[0099] When speed increase is not required, the water pump is driven by connecting the power input member at the end of the water pump main shaft through an external drive device. At this time, in order to avoid wear of the speed increase gearbox, the shift assembly can be pulled to put the speed increase gearbox in neutral, that is, the active shift gear does not mesh with the first driven wheel, and the active meshing teeth do not mesh with the driven meshing teeth.
[0100] On the basis of Example 4, improvements to third gear, fourth gear or even higher gears can be made under this form. Therefore, inspired by this structure, higher-grade water pumps based on this structure should also be within the scope of protection of this application.
[0101] Example 5: Incremental Pumping
[0102] Based on Example 1 or 2 or 3 or 4, two rows of water pump main shafts are symmetrically arranged about the spline main shaft, and each water pump main shaft is connected to a pump chamber through a connecting flange; the shift gears on the spline main shaft are respectively meshed with the driven gears on the two water pump main shafts for transmission.
[0103] Through a spline main shaft and the shift gear thereon, two water pump main shafts are driven to drive their respective pump bodies to operate to achieve the purpose of "one to two", that is, one gear box drives two pump bodies, thereby increasing the water pumping capacity.
[0104] To meet the needs of specific applications, more water pump main shafts, driven gears and pump bodies can be added according to the structural addition method of the embodiment according to actual needs to achieve "one to three, one to four...". This addition method should be set according to the actual operating capacity of the gearbox to avoid overload operation.
[0105] The present invention and its embodiments are described above, and such description is not restrictive. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in the field are inspired by it, without departing from the purpose of the invention, they can design a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without creativity, which should belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
