Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rotor pumps, in particular to a plastic-coated rubber rotor for a rotor pump. Background Art
[0002] The rotor pump is a common form of positive displacement pump. It consists of a rotating rotor and a stationary pump body. It has no suction or discharge valves. The working volume is changed by the relative movement between the two rotors and the pump body, and the liquid is discharged by the squeezing action of the two rotating rotors. At the same time, space is left on the other side to form a low pressure, so that the liquid can be continuously sucked in.
[0003] The rotors of existing rotor pumps are mostly rubber rotors, that is, a layer of rubber sleeve is wrapped around the outside of the metal rotor core. However, due to the poor wear resistance and low strength of the rubber material, hard impurities such as sand and gravel in the liquid can easily cause considerable damage to the rubber sleeve when passing through the two rotors; and due to the low smoothness of the outer surface of the rubber sleeve, the passability of hard impurities between the two rotors is also poor, and in severe cases, the two rotors may be stuck, so the use effect is poor; in addition, the damaged rubber sleeve will affect the sealing of the meshing point of the two rotors, thereby causing the rated pressure value in the pump body to drop, thereby affecting the working efficiency of the rotor pump, which can only be solved by replacing the rotor, which leads to a very short service life of the rotor (the actual effective operating time is less than 200 hours), and this method causes waste of the rotor and increases the use cost of the rotor pump, so it needs further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the current status of the above-mentioned prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a plastic-coated rubber rotor for a rotor pump which effectively prolongs the service life to greatly reduce the use cost of the rotor pump, completely avoids the occurrence of sticking to significantly improve the use effect, and greatly improves the permeability of hard impurities.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is: a plastic-coated rubber rotor for a rotor pump, comprising a metal core; a positioning hole is opened between the top center and the bottom center of the metal core, a plurality of positioning convex strips uniformly distributed at equal angles along the circumferential direction are formed on the inner wall of the positioning hole toward the inside of the positioning hole, and at least two rotating blades uniformly arranged at equal angles along the circumferential direction are formed on the outer side wall of the metal core, characterized in that:
[0006] It also includes a rubber rotor sleeve tightly bonded and coated on the side outer wall of the metal core and the side outer wall of each rotor blade along the contour of the metal core, and the upper and lower surfaces of the rubber rotor sleeve are also provided with a plurality of holes distributed in sequence along the contour of the rubber rotor sleeve;
[0007] It also includes a plastic wear-resistant sleeve which is tightly bonded and coated on the outer wall of the side of the rubber rotor sleeve along the contour of the rubber rotor sleeve.
[0008] Preferably, the hole is a through hole or a blind hole.
[0009] Preferably, the thickness of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve is less than 4 mm.
[0010] Preferably, the thickness ratio of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve to the rubber rotor sleeve is less than 1:4.
[0011] Preferably, the plurality of holes located on the upper side of the rubber rotor sleeve are respectively arranged concentrically or staggered with the plurality of holes located on the lower side of the rubber rotor sleeve.
[0012] Preferably, the diameter of the hole is less than 90% of the thickness of the rubber rotor sleeve.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages: the utility model wraps a layer of plastic wear-resistant sleeve with a thickness of less than 4 mm on the surface of the rubber rotor sleeve. Since the strength, self-lubrication and wear resistance of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve are much better than those of the rubber rotor sleeve, when hard impurities contact the plastic wear-resistant sleeve, the damage to the plastic wear-resistant sleeve is negligible, and the rubber rotor sleeve will not be caused any damage, thereby effectively extending the service life of the rubber rotor sleeve (the actual effective operating time is more than 600 hours), thereby greatly reducing the frequency of replacing the rotor and greatly reducing the use cost of the rotor pump; and once the hard impurities are clamped by the two rotors, they can also use their own elasticity and the multiple holes in the rubber rotor sleeve to adaptively deform to avoid the hard impurities, thereby completely avoiding the phenomenon of the two rotors being stuck and significantly improving the use effect; in addition, due to the high surface smoothness of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve, the passability of the hard impurities between the two rotors is greatly improved.

[0034] A method for processing a plastic-coated rubber rotor for a rotor pump comprises the following steps:
[0035] S1: placing an empty processing mold into a vulcanizing device to preheat the processing mold to a specified temperature (140-180° C.); degreasing and derusting the surface of the metal core 1 and roughening the surface by sandblasting and shot blasting, then cleaning and applying an adhesive on the surface, and drying for standby use;
[0036] S2: The preheated processing mold is taken out from the vulcanizing equipment, and the top mold 9 is vertically moved upward until the frustum-shaped sink cavity 91 is moved above the middle mold assembly, and then the metal core 1 is moved above the core column 10 so that each positioning convex strip 102 is located directly above a corresponding positioning groove 1001;
[0037] S3: Move the metal core 1 downward so that the stem 10 is inserted into the positioning hole 101 and each positioning ridge 102 is inserted into a corresponding positioning groove 1001, thereby fixing the metal core 1 and preventing it from rotating; each rotating vane 103 is arranged in a corresponding concave cavity 81 and is located on the inner side of each second core rod 12 in a corresponding second core rod assembly;
[0038] S4: Take a strip of plastic sheet 11 with a width equal to the height of the metal core 1 and a length matching the perimeter of the outer contour of the metal core 1, then clean and degrease the strip of plastic sheet 11, and then decide whether to activate and apply adhesive to the inner surface of the strip of plastic sheet 11 according to the material properties of the strip of plastic sheet 11 (based on the current technical level, only the strip of plastic sheet 11 made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene does not need to activate and apply adhesive to its inner surface, and only needs to be cleaned and degreased; while the strip of plastic sheet 11 made of other materials needs to activate and apply adhesive to its inner surface); overlap the two ends of the strip of plastic sheet 11 to form a closed loop shape and insert it downward into each cavity 81 and surround the outside of each second core rod combination;
[0039] S5: The top mold 9 is reinstalled to its original position so that the conical inner wall of the frustum-shaped sink cavity 91 fits on the conical arc surface 83 of each molding half 8 so that each molding half 8 fits tightly with each other. At this time, the bottom surface of the frustum-shaped sink cavity 91 fits on the top outer wall of each molding half 8; each first core rod assembly moves downward with the top mold 9 and extends into the inner side of the strip plastic sheet 11; at this time, the lower end opening of each injection hole 92 surrounds the outer side of a corresponding turning leaf 103 along the outer contour of the turning leaf 103, so as to prevent the injected rubber from directly impacting the strip plastic sheet 11 to prevent the strip plastic sheet 11 from deforming;
[0040] S6: Inject the molten rubber material (temperature of 50-90 degrees) into the closed loop area formed between each rotor blade 103 and each concave cavity 81 through each injection hole 92 and wrap it around the outside of each first core rod 13 and each second core rod 12; during the injection process, the rubber material will squeeze the strip plastic sheet 11 outward so that the outer wall of the strip plastic sheet 11 is tightly attached to the inner wall of each concave cavity 81; when the rubber material injected into the closed loop area formed between each rotor blade 103 and each concave cavity 81 is cooled, the rubber rotor sleeve 2 is formed;
[0041] S7: The entire processing mold is put back into the vulcanization equipment for vulcanization. The vulcanization temperature is 140-180 degrees, the pressure is 18 MPa, and the time is 30 to 60 minutes. During the vulcanization process, the inner wall of the rubber rotor cover 2 will be bonded and coated on the side outer wall of the metal core 1 and the side outer wall of each rotor blade 103 by means of the adhesive applied to the surface of the metal core 1 or its own material properties; the strip-shaped plastic sheet 11 will be heated and in a semi-melted state during the vulcanization process, and then bonded and coated on the outside of the rubber rotor cover 2 by means of the adhesive applied to its inner surface or its own and the material properties of the rubber rotor cover 2;
[0042] S8: The processing mold is taken out from the vulcanization equipment. The overlapping parts of the two ends of the strip-shaped plastic sheet 11 will be melted together due to heat during vulcanization, and then a closed plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 is formed after cooling. Each first core rod 13 forms a corresponding hole 21 inside the upper side of the rubber rotor sleeve 2, and each second core rod 12 forms a corresponding hole 21 inside the lower side of the rubber rotor sleeve 2.
[0043] When the multiple first core rods 13 in the first core rod assembly are respectively arranged concentrically with the multiple second core rods 12 in the second core rod assembly located therebelow, if the sum of the lengths of a single first core rod 13 and a single second core rod 12 is greater than the height of the metal core 1, the hole 21 formed by each first core rod 13 and the hole 21 formed by a corresponding second core rod 12 will be interconnected to form a through hole; if the sum of the lengths of a single first core rod 13 and a single second core rod 12 is less than the height of the metal core 1, the hole 21 formed by each first core rod 13 and the hole 21 formed by each second core rod 12 are both blind holes;
[0044] When the plurality of first core rods 13 in the first core rod assembly are staggered with the plurality of second core rods 12 in the second core rod assembly located therebelow, the plurality of holes 21 formed by the first core rods 13 and the plurality of holes 21 formed by the second core rods 12 are staggered; if the length of the first core rod 13 or the second core rod 12 is less than the height of the metal core 1, the holes 21 formed by each first core rod 13 or each second core rod 12 are blind holes; if the length of the first core rod 13 or the second core rod 12 is greater than the height of the metal core 1, the holes 21 formed by each first core rod 13 or each second core rod 12 are through holes;
[0045] S9: Remove the top mold 9 in the same way to synchronously pull each first core rod assembly away from the rubber rotor sleeve 2; if the lower end of each second core rod 12 is fixed on the bottom mold 7, each molding mold piece 8 in the middle mold assembly is translated outward to make the inner wall of each cavity 81 leave the outer wall at the corresponding position on the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3, and then the molded rubber rotor is pulled upward with the help of a tool until the positioning hole 101 is completely separated from the core column 10; if the lower end of each second core rod 12 is fixed on the molding mold piece 8, each molding mold piece 8 in the middle mold assembly cannot be translated outward, but the molded rubber rotor is directly pulled upward until the positioning hole 101 is completely separated from the core column 10.
[0046] The benefits of the utility model during use are as follows: when hard impurities such as sand and gravel mixed in the fluid medium are clamped by the two rotors, the hard impurities will not contact the outer wall of the rubber rotor sleeve 2, but will contact the outer wall of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3. Since the outer wall of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 has good wear resistance due to its own material properties, it will not cause damage to the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3; at the same time, since the thickness of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 is relatively thin, it has good elasticity, and since a plurality of holes 21 distributed in sequence along the contour of the rubber rotor sleeve 2 are provided between the upper and lower side surfaces of the rubber rotor sleeve 2, when the hard impurities are clamped by the two rotors, the hard impurities will squeeze the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 so that the plurality of holes 21 at this position are flattened and deformed due to their own material properties, thereby making the clamping position of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 concave inward, so that the hard impurities can pass through the two rotors smoothly.
[0047] The utility model wraps a layer of plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 with a thickness of less than 4 mm on the surface of the rubber rotor sleeve 2. Since the strength, self-lubrication and wear resistance of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 are much better than those of the rubber rotor sleeve 2, when hard impurities contact the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3, the damage to the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 is negligible, and the rubber rotor sleeve 2 will not be caused any damage, thereby effectively extending the service life of the rubber rotor sleeve 2 (the actual effective operating time is more than 600 hours), thereby greatly reducing the frequency of replacing the rotor and greatly reducing the use cost of the rotor pump; and once the hard impurities are clamped by the two rotors, they can also use their own elasticity and the multiple holes 21 provided in the rubber rotor sleeve 2 to adaptively deform to avoid the hard impurities, thereby completely avoiding the phenomenon of the two rotors being stuck and significantly improving the use effect; in addition, since the surface smoothness of the plastic wear-resistant sleeve 3 is relatively high, the passability of the hard impurities between the two rotors is greatly improved.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it.
