Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vacuum conveying equipment, in particular to a corrosion-resistant sealed vacuum conveying pump. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the uranium enrichment project, the vacuum conveying pump is the main equipment for conveying uranium hexafluoride (UF6) and hydrogen fluoride (HF) medium. Such medium has strong corrosive property. Once corrosion or sealing leakage occurs, not only the process will be interrupted, but also safety risks may be caused. In addition, a small amount of metal or non-metal powder is accompanied in the medium conveying, which is easy to wear the pump cavity and affect the service life.

[0003] At present, in the uranium enrichment project, the mainstream vacuum conveying equipment is divided into two categories: one is a centrifugal vacuum pump, which realizes conveying by applying centrifugal force on gas molecules through high-speed rotating impeller. Although it has small volume and large pumping speed, it has weak boosting capacity for small molecular weight gas. However, uranium enrichment needs to provide large compression ratio for small molecular weight gas, which actually needs to connect multiple devices in series, resulting in high cost, large space occupation and significant limitations. The other is a Roots vacuum pump, which conveys gas through periodic change of pump cavity volume. The compression efficiency of the pump is consistent for different molecular weight mediums, which is suitable for the characteristics of process medium. However, the dynamic sealing leakage of this type of equipment is large, and long-term operation is easy to cause wear or corrosion failure, which induces the problem of direct contact between process medium and lubricating oil to cause pollution.

[0004] In summary, although the existing equipment can meet the basic process requirements, it cannot fully adapt to the harsh uranium enrichment project conditions of strong corrosion, low leakage and anti-powder pollution in terms of corrosion resistance, sealing and reliability. In view of this, we propose a corrosion-resistant sealed vacuum conveying pump. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, and to provide a corrosion-resistant sealed vacuum conveying pump.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical scheme: A corrosion-resistant sealed vacuum conveying pump, comprising a motor for providing a driving source, further comprising: a pumping part, comprising a pump body with a detachable packaging partition plate at both ends, two rotors are rotatably installed in the pump body, a first end cover, which is detachably installed on the packaging partition plate at the inner end side, is provided with a driving shaft hole and a packaging flange groove coaxially arranged, and a shaft body gland flange is detachably installed at the packaging flange groove; a magnetic coupling unit for coaxially connecting the motor output shaft and the shaft rod provided on any of the rotors, the shaft rod is inserted into the driving shaft hole; When the motor rotates, the rotors are driven to rotate by the magnetic coupling unit.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-13 The present invention will describe the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments: This embodiment of the vacuum transfer pump includes a motor 1 for providing a drive source, and specifically also includes a pumping unit; the pumping unit includes a pump body 5 with a sealing partition 9 detachably mounted at both its inner and outer ends, and a device such as... is rotatably mounted inside the pump body 5. Figures 4-7 as well as Figure 13 The two rotors 6 shown are arranged in a figure-eight shape, perpendicularly attached to each other, for synchronous rotation in opposite directions.

[0021] It should be explained that in this embodiment, grooves 601 are provided on the surface of rotor 6 for collecting powder. Considering the problem of metal / non-metal powder accumulation caused by friction or media residue during the operation of rotor 6, it is creatively proposed to set grooves on the surface of rotor 6 to collect powder during rotation. By utilizing the principle of fluid dynamics combined with the flow field channel of the pump body 5 (inlet inlet, outlet inlet) and gravity, the powder is discharged. This can effectively avoid repeated wear of powder between rotor 6 and pump body 5 cavity wall, and can also significantly reduce the risk of material thermal fatigue caused by local friction heating, thereby extending the life of rotor 6 and improving the overall operational stability of the equipment.

[0022] In this embodiment, a first end cap 3 is detachably installed on the inner end-side encapsulation partition 9, and a second end cap 10 is detachably installed on the outer end-side encapsulation partition 9. In this embodiment, JY7766 type fluorine-resistant rubber gaskets are placed at the conventional connection surfaces to improve corrosion resistance. Due to the presence of highly reactive fluorides such as hydrogen fluoride and fluorine gas in the light impurities, traditional rubber sealing materials often fail rapidly due to problems such as molecular chain breakage and surface powdering. After being continuously exposed to a 150°C environment with 10% hydrogen fluoride vapor for 500 hours, the tensile strength retention rate of the JY7766 type fluorine-resistant rubber gasket is still above 85%, and the volume expansion rate is less than 3%, which is far superior to the 60% strength retention rate and 8% expansion rate of conventional fluororubber (FKM). It can effectively solve the safety hazards such as sealing failure and equipment leakage caused by fluoride penetration.

[0023] To achieve synchronous counter-rotation of the two rotors 6, two synchronous gears 8 are provided inside the second end cover 10, coaxially mounted on the shafts 61 of the two rotors 6 and meshing with each other; at the same time, the first end cover 3 is provided with... Figure 9 , Figure 10 The active shaft hole 301 and the encapsulation flange groove 303 are coaxially arranged. A shaft cover flange 7 is detachably installed at the encapsulation flange groove 303, and a fluorine-resistant rubber gasket is also installed on the connecting surface. In order to enhance the sealing reliability of the insertion position of the encapsulation partition 9 on both sides, this embodiment has a rotating shaft hole 901 for inserting a shaft 61 on the encapsulation partition 9. A dynamic sealing groove 91 and a pressure sealing groove 92 are arranged outward from the rotating shaft hole 901. A dynamic sealing element 11 and a conical sealing ring 14 for fitting on the shaft 61 are respectively installed at the dynamic sealing groove 91 and the pressure sealing groove 92. The conical sealing ring 14 is made of fluorine-resistant rubber material, and the dynamic sealing element 11 is a magnetohydrodynamic sealing element. A limiting sleeve 12 can be encapsulated outside the pressure sealing groove 92. The limiting sleeve 12 is connected to the bearing 13. The corresponding shaft 61 is rotatably connected to maintain the rotational reliability of the shaft 61. After the limit sleeve 12 is tightened, it can compress the conical sealing ring 14 to cooperate with the magnetohydrodynamic seal to maintain the seal between the seal and the shaft body. The magnetohydrodynamic seal uses an external magnetic field to control the magnetic fluid to dynamically adhere to the surface of the shaft 61, which is the rotating shaft, to form a non-contact adaptive sealing interface. This avoids the problem of lubricating oil in the lubricating oil cavity 302 between the first end cover 3 and the encapsulation partition 9 entering the pump cavity and causing contamination. A vacuum joint 31 is provided on the lubricating oil cavity 302, which can evacuate the pressure of the lubricating oil cavity 302 to negative pressure before use, so as to achieve no pressure difference on both sides of the dynamic sealing element 11. The dynamic sealing element 11 is installed close to the bearing 13 to achieve a low leakage rate dynamic seal between the pump cavity and the lubricating oil cavity 302.

[0024] In this embodiment, to achieve good sealing, the connection between the shaft 61 of the rotor 6 and the motor 1 is the core sealing structure. In this embodiment, the output shaft of the motor 1 and a shaft 61 are connected by a magnetic coupling unit 4. The shaft 61 is inserted into the drive shaft hole 301. The outer end of the first end cover 3 is detachably equipped with a connecting flange cover 2 for fixing the motor 1.

[0025] The magnetic coupling unit 4 includes a sealing sleeve 42 that is detachably installed on the outer end of the shaft cover flange 7 to form a closed cavity. An inner magnetic cylinder 43 for coaxial connection with the shaft 61 is inserted inside the sealing sleeve 42. An outer magnetic cylinder 41 for coaxial installation on the output shaft of the motor 1 is fitted outside the sealing sleeve 42. When the motor 1 drives the outer magnetic cylinder 41 to rotate, the inner magnetic cylinder 43 is magnetically pulled to drive the rotor 6 to rotate synchronously.

[0026] The corrosion-resistant sealed vacuum transfer pump of this embodiment works on the following principle: based on the magnetic coupling unit 4, the leakage rate of the connection part is reduced; there is a gap between the outer magnetic cylinder 41, the sealing isolation sleeve 42, and the inner magnetic cylinder 43 of the magnetic coupling, and contactless transmission is achieved through the magnetic field. When working, the output shaft of the motor 1 drives the outer magnetic cylinder 41 to rotate, and the inner magnetic cylinder 43 rotates synchronously with the outer magnetic cylinder 41 under the action of the magnetic field. At the same time, the rotor 6 is driven to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction in the pump body 5 cavity through the shaft 61.

[0027] Specifically, this invention uses a magnetic coupling unit 4 as a transmission mechanism, achieving contactless torque transmission through the action of a magnetic field. This ensures that all structures in contact with uranium hexafluoride and hydrogen fluoride gases are sealed to the external environment by O-ring fluorine-resistant rubber gaskets, effectively guaranteeing the overall leakage rate. The lubricating oil chamber 302 of this invention can be evacuated before use, ensuring that the pressure inside the lubricating oil chamber 302 is consistent with the pressure in the pump body 5, reducing dynamic seal leakage caused by pressure difference. The pump body 5 of this invention is made of aluminum alloy casting, which is resistant to fluoride corrosion and does not require secondary protection processes such as traditional electroplating of nickel-based alloys or spraying of PTFE coatings.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
