Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fluid transportation, in particular to a self-priming centrifugal pump. Background Art
[0002] Ordinary centrifugal pumps do not have self-priming function. To ensure the normal operation of the centrifugal pump, the water inlet pipe and the pump need to be filled with liquid. When the impeller is higher than the suction liquid level, the commonly used methods are: filling the pump and the water inlet pipe with liquid before each start-up. Therefore, when using an ordinary centrifugal pump for fluid transportation, the workload is increased, the start-up time is increased, and it is not conducive to remote automatic control. Using a vacuum pump to discharge the gas in the water inlet pipe and the pump, this method has a high equipment cost, complex operation, and a large maintenance workload.
[0003] The patent document with the publication number of CN221322733U discloses a centrifugal pump with self-priming function. It realizes the self-priming function by setting a self-priming chamber and a check valve, so that only the pump casing of the centrifugal pump needs to be filled with water before the first start-up, and the water inlet pipe does not need to be filled with water, with less workload and short start-up time; the self-priming shell is arranged outside the centrifugal pump casing, and the self-priming shell and the centrifugal pump casing are of a split structure, with low casting difficulty and low cost for the centrifugal pump casing and the self-priming shell. However, the check valve structure of this centrifugal pump with self-priming function includes a rubber sheet seat arranged between the self-priming shell and the self-priming cover, a rubber valve sheet covering the water inlet, and a rubber connecting block connecting the rubber sheet seat and the rubber valve sheet. The rubber connecting block is arranged above the rubber valve sheet, and a metal sheet core is embedded in the rubber valve sheet. When the centrifugal pump is working, the fluid will impact the rubber valve sheet. Since the hardness and anti-impact performance of the rubber valve sheet are weak, the rubber valve sheet is easily damaged or deformed after long-term use. At the same time, the rubber valve sheet is also prone to the situation of poor sealing of the water inlet, and the fluid in the self-priming chamber is likely to flow back after the pump stops, thereby losing the self-priming function.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0028] Embodiment 1: Refer to Figures 1-6 As shown, a self-priming centrifugal pump includes a bottom plate 1, on the upper end of the bottom plate 1, a motor 3 and a centrifugal pump body 2 are fixed. A coupling 4 is fixed on the bottom plate 1, and the output shaft of the motor 3 is connected to the rotating shaft of the centrifugal pump body 2 through the coupling 4.
[0029] A housing 5 is fixed on the bottom plate 1. Specifically, a support plate 6 is fixed at the lower end of the housing 5, and the support plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1.
[0030] A communicating pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the housing 5 in a communicating manner, and the communicating pipe 8 is communicated with the inlet end of the centrifugal pump body 2. A feed pipe 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the housing 5 in a communicating manner, and the outlet end of the feed pipe 7 is located inside the housing 5.
[0031] A filling pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the housing 5 in a communicating manner, and a cap is detachably and fixedly sealedly connected to the filling pipe 18. Before the centrifugal pump body 2 is started for the first time, the cap is opened, and fluid can be filled into the housing 5 through the filling pipe 18.
[0032] A slot hole 19 is opened at the upper end of the housing 5, and a cover plate 9 for blocking the slot hole 19 is detachably and fixedly sealedly connected to the upper end of the housing 5. A plurality of vertical insertion rods 10 are fixed to the lower end of the cover plate 9, and insertion holes 11 concentric with the insertion rods 10 are opened at the upper end of the housing 5, and the insertion rods 10 are inserted into the insertion holes 11 to position the cover plate 9.
[0033] A rubber pad is fixed to the lower end of the cover plate 9, and the cover plate 9 is sealedly connected to the upper end of the housing 5 through the rubber pad. The cover plate 9 and the upper end of the housing 5 are connected by a plurality of bolts 12.
[0034] Two ear plates 13 are fixed to the lower end of the cover plate 9. A part of the feed pipe 7 inside the housing 5 is located between the two ear plates 13, and a sealing plate 15 is rotatably arranged between the two ear plates 13. Specifically, the sealing plate 15 is a metal plate, and the sealing plate 15 is rotatably connected to the ear plates 13 through a rotating rod 14.
[0035] The upper end of the sealing plate 15 is connected to the upper end of a part of the feed pipe 7 inside the housing 5 through an elastic piece 17.
[0036] A sealing groove is opened at one end of the feed pipe 7 inside the housing 5, and a sealing ring 16 is installed in the sealing groove. The sealing plate 15 seals and blocks the outlet end of the feed pipe 7 through the sealing ring 16.
[0037] The fluid in the inlet pipe 7 can cause the sealing plate 15 to rotate after impacting the sealing plate 15. When the sealing plate 15 rotates, the elastic piece 17 undergoes elastic deformation. After the sealing plate 15 rotates, the fluid can enter the housing 5. After the centrifugal pump body 2 stops rotating, under the elastic action of the elastic piece 17, the sealing plate 15 rotates back to its original position and seals the outlet end of the inlet pipe 7.
[0038] Before starting the centrifugal pump body 2 for the first time, the fluid can be filled into the housing 5 through the filling pipe 18 by opening the cap. After filling the housing 5 with the fluid, then cover the cap on the filling pipe 18. After starting the motor 3, the impeller of the centrifugal pump body 2 rotates. When the impeller rotates rapidly, the blades of the impeller cause the fluid to rotate quickly. The rotating fluid flies out of the impeller under the action of centrifugal force. After the fluid in the pump is thrown out, a vacuum area is formed in the central part of the impeller. The fluid enters the centrifugal pump body 2 in sequence through the inlet pipe 7, the housing 5 and the connecting pipe 8 under the action of atmospheric pressure, and then the fluid is continuously transported.
[0039] When the fluid impacts the sealing plate 15 in the inlet pipe 7, the sealing plate 15 rotates around the rotating rod 14, and the elastic piece 17 undergoes elastic deformation. When the centrifugal pump body 2 stops pumping, under the elastic action of the elastic piece 17, the sealing plate 15 quickly returns to its original position and seals the outlet end of the inlet pipe 7. After stopping the pump, it can prevent the fluid in the housing 5 from flowing back through the inlet pipe 7, ensure the amount of fluid in the housing 5 and the pump chamber of the centrifugal pump body 2, and thus ensure the self-priming function of the centrifugal pump body 2.
[0040] Opening the cover plate 9 can take out the sealing plate 15, which is convenient for replacing the sealing plate 15 and at the same time convenient for replacing the sealing ring 16. The sealing ring 16 is located in the sealing groove, which can prevent the fluid from scouring the sealing ring 16 for a long time and reducing its service life. It can improve the maintenance cycle and reduce the use cost.
[0041] Embodiment 2: On the basis of Embodiment 1, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 6 One end of the elastic piece 17 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sealing plate 15. The lower end of the elastic piece 17 bends upward to form a bent portion, and an arc-shaped groove 20 is formed at the lower end of the bent portion. The upper part of the inlet pipe 7 in the housing 5 is slidably clamped in the arc-shaped groove 20.
[0042] During the deformation process of the elastic piece 17, the bent portion at its lower end can always tightly abut against the upper part of the inlet pipe 7 in the housing 5, which can improve the stability of the elastic piece 17 during deformation.
[0043] Embodiment 3: On the basis of Embodiment 1, as shown in Figure 2 The two ear plates 13 are fixedly connected by a stop rod 21. The upper end of the sealing plate 15 is located between the elastic piece 17 and the stop rod 21, and the stop rod 21 can limit the rotation angle of the sealing plate 15.
[0044] By arranging the shift lever 21, the shift lever 21 can limit the rotation angle of the sealing plate 15. When the fluid in the inlet pipe 7 impacts the sealing plate 15, it can prevent the deformation amount of the elastic piece 17 from exceeding its maximum deformation amount due to excessive rotation angle of the sealing plate 15, and can effectively protect the elastic piece 17.
[0045] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
