Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vacuum pumps, in particular to a series-parallel two-stage vacuum diaphragm pump. Background Art

[0002] A vacuum diaphragm pump is a positive displacement vacuum pump that uses the reciprocating motion of a diaphragm to compress and discharge gas. It is a type of oil-free dry pump. The operating principle of a vacuum diaphragm pump is based on the reciprocating motion of the diaphragm. When the motor drives the diaphragm up and down, the volume of the pump chamber changes accordingly, thereby allowing gas to be drawn in and out. Due to their high efficiency, oil-free operation, and corrosion resistance, vacuum diaphragm pumps are widely used in various fields.

[0003] Among existing vacuum diaphragm pump designs, one type uses a dual-output shaft motor to synchronously drive two diaphragm pumps, which generally include a series type and a parallel type.

[0004] Series type can refer to Figure 12 The series structure uses air pipes to connect the inlet and outlet ends of the head cover in series. The advantage of the series structure is its simple structure, but the disadvantages are: (1) at the same speed and stroke, the series structure can only achieve half the high vacuum flow rate of the parallel structure, which cannot meet the flow requirements; (2) limited by the motor characteristics and pump body size design, increasing the speed or redesigning the pump body is costly.

[0005] Parallel type can refer to Figure 13 The parallel type uses air pipes to connect the two independently working outlet pipes in parallel, forming a parallel air path. At the same speed and stroke, the parallel type doubles the flow rate of the series type, but the vacuum degree is only about 80%, which cannot meet the requirements of high vacuum.

[0006] At the same time, due to the limitations of top clearance and stroke, the parallel structure cannot achieve high vacuum by modification. Summary of the Invention

[0028] (5) The number of through holes in the present invention can further increase the pump pressure. At the same time, the distribution of the through holes is actually offset (i.e., not evenly distributed around the circumference), which helps to open the valve plate in the presence of water or water vapor.

[0029] (6) The design of the first flat area and the second flat area in the present invention helps to control leakage and thus ensure vacuum.

[0030] (7) In the present invention, a fastening connection position is added between the head cover and the valve plate at positions corresponding to the first flat area and the second flat area, which can reduce the deformation of the head cover and the valve plate during the production and installation process, thereby further ensuring the vacuum degree.

[0031] (8) The design of the first grid forming area of ​​the valve plate and the second grid forming area of ​​the head cover in the present invention is to make the wall thickness of the parts more uniform, which is conducive to controlling the degree of deformation of the head cover and valve plate during molding, while increasing the surface area of ​​the head cover and valve plate and improving heat dissipation.

[0032] (9) The present invention can further actively dissipate heat inside the pump casing through a cooling fan.

[0033] (10) The heat dissipation holes on the pump housing of the present invention can further improve the heat dissipation effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0046] The four corners and the middle of the valve plate 22 form a valve plate connection area 223, and a first grid forming area 224 is formed between the valve plate connection area 223 and the first flat area 222; the four corners and the middle of the head cover 21 form a head cover connection area 217, and a second grid forming area 218 is formed between the head cover connection area 217 and the second flat area 216; when the head cover 21 is tightly connected to the valve plate 22, the first flat area 222 and the second flat area 216 correspond to each other.

[0047] The head cover connection area 217 of the head cover 21 and the valve plate connection area 223 of the valve plate 22 are fastened together by connecting bolts. Since the head cover 21 and the valve plate 22 are also fastened together in the middle, the vacuum degree is further ensured.

[0048] In this embodiment, the head cover connection area 217 in the middle is connected to the second flat area 216; the valve plate connection area 223 is connected to the first flat area 222. This design can further tighten the head cover 21 and the valve plate 22 near the inlet cavity 26 and the outlet cavity 27, further improving the vacuum level.

[0049] At least one shim 7 is provided between the lower retainer 253 and the upper end of the connecting rod 254, through which the fastening bolt 252 passes and for adjusting the distance between the lower retainer 253 and the upper end of the connecting rod 254. By selecting shims 7 of varying thicknesses or numbers to adjust the distance between the lower retainer 253 and the upper end of the connecting rod 254, the top clearance during the stroke can be adjusted.

[0050] The output ends on both sides of the dual-output shaft motor 1 are fixed with cooling fans 8; the cooling fans 8 are located in the pump housing 23 and rotate under the drive of the output end; the connecting rod assembly 25 is located between the cooling fan 8 on the corresponding side and the dual-output motor 1.

[0051] The pump housing 23 is provided with heat dissipation holes 231 .

[0052] The pump housing 23 is provided with a connecting flange 232; the pump housings 23 of the two single-head diaphragm pumps 2 are respectively mounted on both ends of the dual-output motor 1; the two pump housings 23 are fastened together by a locking nut after a long screw 9 passes through their respective connecting flanges 232.

[0053] The working process of the present invention is as follows: The output terminals at both ends of the dual-output shaft motor 1 drive the corresponding connecting rod assembly 25 to move up and down; the connecting rod assembly 25 drives the corresponding diaphragm 24 to reciprocate up and down. As the diaphragm 24 moves up and down, the medium enters the inlet chamber 26 from the inlet pipe 211, then enters the sealed diaphragm chamber 29 from the inlet chamber 26, then enters the sealed diaphragm chamber 29 from the sealed diaphragm chamber 29, enters the outlet chamber 27, and then enters the outlet pipe 212 from the outlet chamber 27, and is finally pumped out of the outlet pipe 212.

[0054] At the beginning of each pumping process, when the pressure difference between the single-head diaphragm pump 2 equipped with the third one-way valve plate 281a and the other single-head diaphragm pump 2 is very small, the two single-head diaphragm pumps 2 operate in parallel because the compensation channel 3 is closed by the third one-way valve plate 281a and the fourth one-way valve plate 281b at this time; when the pressure in the single-head diaphragm pump 2 equipped with the third one-way valve plate 281a is greater than the pressure in the other single-head diaphragm pump 2 and exceeds a certain pressure difference, the third one-way valve plate 281a and the fourth one-way valve plate 281b open, and the two single-head diaphragm pumps 2 work in series through the compensation channel 3.

[0055] Example 2, see Figure 11In the present invention, a third one-way valve plate 281a is provided at the connection between the compensation cavity 28 of a single-head diaphragm pump 2 and the closed diaphragm cavity 29 on its corresponding side, which only allows the medium to enter the compensation cavity 28; the other single-head diaphragm pump 2 omits the compensation cavity 28 and instead connects the compensation channel 3 with the closed diaphragm cavity 29 of the single-head diaphragm pump 2 through a reduced-diameter valve hole 282.

[0056] Other technical features are the same as those in Example 1.

[0057] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the objectives, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention in detail. It should be understood that the above are only specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
