Description

Technical field:

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a hydrogen circulation pump for preventing electric leakage of a fuel cell system. Background technology:

[0002] The hydrogen circulation pump is mainly used to pressurize and reuse the hydrogen-containing mixed gas discharged from the fuel cell system. During the operation of the hydrogen circulation pump, since the hydrogen-containing mixed gas contains water vapor, part of the current of the fuel cell system will be connected to the pump head of the hydrogen circulation pump along with the water vapor. Since the pump head is connected to the motor, and the motor is connected to a ground wire, part of the current of the fuel cell system will be introduced into the underground through the water vapor, the pump head, and the motor, and lost through the earth, thereby causing current loss in the fuel cell system and resulting in energy waste. Currently, there is no good way to solve the above problems.

[0003] Therefore, the problem of current loss in the fuel cell system through the hydrogen circulation pump has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the industry. Utility model content:

[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a hydrogen circulation pump for preventing leakage of a fuel cell system, thereby solving the problem of loss of current in the fuel cell system caused by the current being introduced into the earth through the hydrogen circulation pump.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is:

[0006] A hydrogen circulation pump for preventing electric leakage of a fuel cell system comprises a motor housing and a pump housing, and a bearing seat therebetween; a gear chamber is provided between the bearing seat and the motor housing; a stator, a rotor and a motor shaft are arranged in the motor housing; a meshing driving gear and a driven gear are arranged in the gear chamber; a driving shaft and a driven shaft are arranged in the pump housing; the driving shaft extends into the gear chamber and is connected to the driving gear; the driven shaft extends into the gear chamber and is connected to the driven gear; a driving rotor is mounted on the driving shaft; a driven rotor is mounted on the driven shaft; an air inlet and an air outlet are provided on the pump housing; the bearing seat and the motor housing are insulated; the motor shaft extends into the gear chamber and is connected to the driving gear via an insulating connection structure.

[0007] The bearing seat is connected to the motor housing through a plurality of long bolts, and an insulating sleeve is provided between the long bolts and the motor housing or the bearing seat.

[0008] An insulating pad is provided between the bearing seat and the motor housing.

[0009] The insulating connection structure comprises a connecting disk fixed on the motor shaft, the connecting disk and the driving gear are connected via a plurality of transmission rods, and an insulating ring is arranged between the transmission rod and the connecting disk.

[0010] The two ends of the driving shaft and the driven shaft are supported by bearings arranged in the pump housing and the bearing seat respectively.

[0011] Both ends of the motor shaft are supported by bearings arranged in the motor housing.

[0012] The utility model adopts the above scheme and has the following advantages:

[0013] By respectively arranging insulating structures between the bearing seat and the motor housing, and between the motor shaft and the driving gear, the internal and external connection positions between the pump head and the motor can be completely insulated. Even after part of the current of the fuel cell system is connected to the pump head, it will no longer be transmitted to the motor through the pump head, thereby preventing the current from being introduced into the ground through the grounding wire of the motor and lost through the earth, thereby avoiding current loss in the fuel cell system and achieving the purpose of saving energy.
