[0025] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific illustrations.

[0026] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 , which show Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 of the general pulp pump seal structure provided by the present utility model.

[0027] As can be seen from the figure, the general pulp pump seal structure provided by the present utility model mainly includes a pump body 1, an impeller 2, a pump shaft 3 and a seal cavity 4 arranged in the pump body 1, and a mechanical seal assembly 5a and a packing seal assembly 5b that are alternatively arranged in the seal cavity 4.

[0028] Among them, except that a keyway for connecting to the motor is provided at the first end of the pump shaft 3, the pump shaft 3 is connected to other components of the pulp pump in a keyway-free manner. The impeller 2 is arranged at the second end of the pump shaft 3 and is connected to the pump shaft 3 through a thread 31 provided at the second end of the pump shaft 3 and is locked and fixed by a set screw 32. Further, the mechanical seal assembly 5a and the packing seal assembly 5b are connected to the pump shaft 3 by a locking screw 33 to reduce the setting of keyways on the pump shaft 3, avoid stress concentration at the keyway, and ensure the strength and stiffness of the pump shaft 3.

[0029] Preferably, there is a thread fit with a pitch between 25 mm and 40 mm between the pump shaft 3 and the thread 31 at the second end, so that when the impeller 2 is fitted and connected with the pump shaft 3, the contact between the pump shaft 3 and the hub of the impeller 2 is more uniform, thereby improving the efficiency and uniformity of torque transmission, making the structure of the pulp pump stable and reliable, capable of withstanding large stresses and not easily damaged.

[0030] In order to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the sealing structure of the pulp pump, the mechanical seal assembly 5a and the packing seal assembly 5b can be replaceably arranged in the sealing cavity 4, so that the sealing structure of the pulp pump can adopt either the mechanical seal assembly 5a or the packing seal assembly 5b, which is convenient for maintenance.

[0031] Furthermore, the mechanical seal assembly 5a is mainly composed of a mechanical seal pump cover 51a, a mechanical seal 52a, a mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a and a mechanical seal gland 54a, and the packing seal assembly 5b is mainly composed of a packing pump cover 51b, packing 52b, a packing shaft sleeve 53b and a packing gland 54b.

[0032] When the sealing structure of the pulp pump adopts the packing seal assembly 5b, the sealing cavity 4 is composed of the packing pump cover 51b of the packing seal assembly 5b. The packing pump cover 51b is arranged in the pump body 1, and a cavity capable of accommodating the packing 52b therein is formed between the pump shaft 3 and the packing pump cover 51b of the machine. The packing shaft sleeve 53b is sleeved on the pump shaft 3, and the packing shaft sleeve 53b and the pump shaft 3 are connected by a locking screw 33. The packing 52b is arranged outside the packing shaft sleeve 53b, and at the same time, the packing 52b abuts against the packing pump cover 51b to improve the sealing performance of the packing seal assembly 5b. The packing gland 54b is arranged at the end of the packing shaft sleeve 53b to connect the packing shaft sleeve 53b and the packing pump cover 51b, so that the packing seal assembly 5b is fixedly arranged in the pump body 1 as the sealing structure of the pulp pump.

[0033] When the packing seal assembly 5b is damaged and needs to be maintained and replaced, the packing seal assembly 5b is removed from the pump body 1 and can be replaced with a new packing seal assembly 5b or a mechanical seal assembly 5a, so that the sealing structure of the pulp pump has universality and is convenient for maintenance and replacement.

[0034] Furthermore, when the mechanical seal assembly 5a is adopted for the seal structure of the pulp pump, the seal cavity 4 is constituted by the mechanical seal pump cover 51a of the mechanical seal assembly 5a. The mechanical seal pump cover 51a is arranged in the pump body 1, and a cavity capable of accommodating the mechanical seal 52a therein is formed between the pump shaft 3 and the mechanical seal pump cover 51a, so that the mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a is sleeved on the pump shaft 3, and the mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a and the pump shaft 3 are connected by a locking screw 33. The mechanical seal 52a is arranged outside the mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a, and the mechanical seal gland 54a is arranged at the end of the mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a to connect the mechanical seal shaft sleeve 53a and the mechanical seal pump cover 51a, so that the mechanical seal assembly 5a is fixedly arranged in the pump body 1 as the seal structure of the pulp pump.

[0035] In order to improve the versatility of the seal structure of the pulp pump and be applicable to mechanical seals 52a of various size specifications, the inner cavity of the mechanical seal pump cover 51a in the mechanical seal assembly 5a is configured to be larger than the inner cavity of the stuffing box pump cover 51b in the stuffing seal assembly 5b, so as to form a larger space between the inner cavity of the mechanical seal pump cover 51a and the pump shaft 3, which can accommodate mechanical seals 52a of various size specifications. Without installing a specific model of mechanical seal, any specification of mechanical seal 52a adapted to the shaft diameter of the pump shaft 3 can be installed, thereby improving the versatility of the seal structure of the pulp pump and reducing the maintenance cost of the seal structure.

[0036] Here, the inner cavity of the mechanical seal pump cover 51a can be adjusted adaptively according to specific circumstances. Preferably, the mechanical seal pump cover 51a is configured to be able to accommodate the largest mechanical seal 52a that can be adapted to the shaft diameter of the pump shaft 3 to improve the versatility of the seal structure of the pulp pump.

[0037] The universal pulp pump seal structure provided by the present utility model adopts a connection method without a keyway on the entire pump shaft 3. The impeller 2, the mechanical seal assembly 5a and the stuffing seal assembly 5b are connected to the pump shaft 3 by screws, reducing the generation of stress concentration, improving the efficiency and uniformity of torque transmission, so that the pulp pump structure is stable and reliable, can withstand greater stress and is not easily damaged; and the mechanical seal assembly 5a and the stuffing seal assembly 5b are used in cooperation to realize the replacement and universality of the seal structure. The inner cavity of the mechanical seal pump cover 51a of the mechanical seal assembly 5a is larger to be applicable to mechanical seals 52a of various size specifications, improving the versatility and reducing the maintenance cost.
