Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of centrifugal fan technology, specifically to a centrifugal fan and its design method, and a sweeper truck. Background Technology

[0002] As a core component of the pneumatic system of cleaning equipment, the performance of the centrifugal fan and its compatibility with the pneumatic system are crucial to the operational performance and energy consumption of the cleaning equipment. Currently, cleaning equipment has evolved into various categories such as vacuum cleaners, road sweepers, and other cleaning equipment. Different types of cleaning equipment have different pneumatic system characteristics, and therefore different requirements for the performance and characteristics of the fan. Only when the characteristics of the fan and the pneumatic system are properly matched can the entire system operate efficiently.

[0003] The blowers used in existing cleaning equipment are mostly modified from the 9-19 and 9-26 series industrial blowers. Due to the limitations of engine speed in the fuel-powered era, the blower speed is relatively fixed, generally between 1800 and 2600 rpm. Because the blower speed is relatively low, forward-curved blades are often used to improve blower performance, and the blower size is also relatively large, resulting in low blower efficiency. Different tonnage vehicles also require different models and sizes of blowers.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design special fans according to the pneumatic system characteristics of different types of cleaning equipment, and reduce the size of the fans so that they can be installed on cleaning equipment of different tonnage sizes and maintain high-efficiency operation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a centrifugal fan and its design method, as well as a sweeper truck. By increasing the fan speed, the fan volume can be reduced without reducing the fan performance. The design is tailored to the pneumatic system characteristics of sweeping equipment, allowing the fan to be installed on sweeping equipment of different tonnages. The three-dimensional backward centrifugal blade design makes the blade shape more in line with the fluid flow law, reducing flow losses inside the impeller, improving fan efficiency, and reducing flow noise.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented using the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a centrifugal fan, comprising:

The blades are installed between the front and rear discs and are evenly arranged circumferentially along the axes of the front and rear discs. An impeller inlet is provided at the center of the front disc, and a shaft hole is provided at the center of the rear disc. The blades are three-dimensional backward centrifugal blades.

The air intake direction is perpendicular to the axis of the impeller. The outlet has a circular cross-section and matches the air inlet of the collector.

[0012] The drive unit is fixed on the mounting bracket and located on the side of the volute opposite to the collector assembly. The drive end of the drive unit extends into the volute and engages with the shaft hole at the center of the impeller's rear disc. The drive unit is used to drive the impeller to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the inlet placement angle of the blade near the front disc is smaller than the inlet placement angle of the blade near the rear disc.

[0014] The exit angle of the blade is 18°~35°;

[0015] The blade has a leading edge close to the axis of the front disc and a trailing edge away from the axis of the front disc;

[0016] The cross-section of the leading edge along the airflow direction is semi-elliptical;

[0017] The trailing edge gradually thins along the airflow direction, and its cross-section is a rectangle with one corner obliquely cut, with the oblique cut located on the pressure surface of the blade.

[0018] And / or, the fixing plate includes
