[0002] Fire pumps are crucial equipment in the fire protection system. They are responsible for providing a stable and high-pressure water source for the fire protection system to ensure timely and effective fire extinguishing in case of a fire.
[0003] Currently, the existing fire pumps have only one water outlet, and the size of the water outlet is fixed, unable to adjust the water flow rate and pressure according to actual needs, which may cause inconvenience in practical applications. Especially in the case of complex and changeable situations at the fire scene, a single water outlet may not meet the fire extinguishing requirements of different scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Advantages of the present invention:
[0014] Through the design of multi-stage impellers and guide vanes in the present invention, the water flow is dispersed and converged multiple times in the pump body, improving the pumping efficiency and water flow velocity. At the same time, the speed reduction and torque increase function of the gearbox enables the rotating shaft to obtain a greater torque, thereby enhancing the pressurization ability of the water pump.
[0015] There are two water outlet methods, a large water outlet and a small water outlet, which can be flexibly selected according to actual fire-fighting needs. The large water outlet is suitable for scenarios that require a large amount of water flow, while the small water outlet is suitable for scenarios that require fine control of the water flow.

[0030] A plurality of guide vanes 421 are fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the guide vane 42. The guide vanes 421 are arc-shaped, and the arc direction of the guide vanes 421 is opposite to the arc direction of the second blades 416.
[0031] The first partition 43 includes a third fixing plate 431. The third fixing plate 431 is annular. The diameter of the inner edge of the third fixing plate 431 is larger than the outer wall diameter of the front end of the second-stage impeller 44. The outer edge of the rear side wall of the third fixing plate 431 is fixedly connected to a first collar 432.

[0034] When the fire pump needs to be started, first connect the motor through the input shaft 15 of the gearbox 2. The motor drives the rotating shaft 3 through the gearbox 2. As the rotating shaft 3 rotates, the impeller 4 fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft also starts to rotate. The rotation of the impeller 4 generates centrifugal force, causing water to be sucked in and enter the pump body 1 from the water inlet end 19.
[0035] The front water inlet end of the pump body 1 is connected to the water source through a water inlet pipe 5. The other end of the water inlet pipe 5 is provided with a water inlet 7 and is equipped with a valve one 6. When the valve one 6 is opened, the water from the water source will enter the water inlet pipe 5 through the water inlet 7 and then enter the pump body 1.
[0036] The primary impeller 41 sucks water from the water inlet end 19 and throws the water outward through its blade structure.
[0037] The water thrown out by the primary impeller 41 is guided by the guide vane 42 and flows to the front end of the secondary impeller 44. The arc design of the guide vane 42 helps to change the direction of the water flow so that it can smoothly enter the secondary impeller 44.
[0038] The secondary impeller 44 receives the water flow from the guide vane 42 and throws the water outward again. This process is repeated between multiple secondary impellers 44 and guide vanes 42 to achieve multiple dispersions and convergences of the water flow, and finally flows out from the water outlet end 20 of the pump body 1.
[0039] The water outlet end 20 of the pump body 1 is connected to two first outlet pipes 9 through a tee pipe 8. The outer walls of these two first outlet pipes 9 are both connected to a second outlet pipe 12. The first outlet pipe 9 and the second outlet pipe 12 have different thicknesses and are respectively provided with a large water outlet 11 and a small water outlet 14, and are respectively equipped with a valve two 10 and a valve three 13. According to actual needs, it is possible to choose to open the valve two 10 to use the large water outlet 11 for a large amount of water discharge, or choose to open the valve three 13 to use the small water outlet 14 for a small amount of water discharge.
[0040] When a certain water outlet is selected, open the corresponding valve, and the water flow will flow out through the opened valve and the corresponding outlet pipe. If the water from two water outlets is needed simultaneously, the two valves can also be opened simultaneously.
