Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vacuum pumps, and in particular relates to an inlet pressure detection system for a water ring vacuum pump. Background Art
[0002] A water ring vacuum pump consists of an impeller, pump body, suction and exhaust ports, and auxiliary piping. The impeller is eccentrically mounted within the pump body. As the impeller rotates, centrifugal force throws water in all directions, forming a closed water ring similar in shape to the pump chamber. The outer surface of the water ring contacts the pump chamber, while the inner surface contacts the blades. Several crescent-shaped cavities are formed between the impeller hub and the water ring. As the impeller rotates clockwise, the volume of each small cavity increases due to the eccentric arrangement, and the pressure within the cavity continuously decreases. When the pressure drops below the pressure of the gas in the container being pumped, gas enters the small cavity from the suction port, marking the suction process. As the impeller continues to rotate, the volume within the small cavity gradually decreases, while the pressure continues to increase until the gas pressure exceeds the exhaust pressure, at which point the compressed gas is discharged from the exhaust port.
[0003] During the operation of a water ring vacuum pump, its operating status must be continuously monitored and water must be continuously supplied to the pump. The amount of water supplied determines the formation of the water ring. An appropriate amount of water supply ensures the stability of the water ring, thereby ensuring the normal compression and discharge of gas. If the water supply is insufficient, the water ring may not form effectively, causing the pump to malfunction; conversely, excessive water supply may cause unnecessary energy consumption. Existing water ring vacuum pumps typically rely solely on manual adjustment of the water supply to achieve the desired operating state, but this method generally fails to achieve good operating efficiency and does not adapt to changes in actual air pressure conditions. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the above-mentioned technical problems, the utility model provides a water ring vacuum pump inlet pressure detection system to solve the problem that the existing water ring vacuum pump is difficult to adjust according to the actual air pressure working conditions. The water ring vacuum pump inlet pressure detection system can adjust the water supply according to different working conditions to achieve better working efficiency.
[0005] The utility model provides an inlet pressure detection system for a water ring vacuum pump, comprising a controller, a water ring vacuum pump, a gas opening regulating valve, an air pressure detector and a liquid opening regulating valve, wherein the water ring vacuum pump is provided with a water inlet, a drain outlet, an air inlet and an air outlet, the air inlet is connected to an air inlet pipe, the gas opening regulating valve is arranged on the air inlet pipe, the air inlet pipe is respectively provided with a first pressure detection point and a second pressure detection point on both sides of the gas opening regulating valve, the air pressure detector is respectively connected to the first pressure detection point and the second pressure detection point, the water inlet is connected to a water supply pipe, the liquid opening regulating valve is arranged on the water supply pipe, and the controller is respectively electrically connected to the air pressure detector, the gas opening regulating valve and the liquid opening regulating valve.
[0006] Furthermore, the air outlet is provided with a third pressure detection point, and the air pressure detector is connected to the third pressure detection point.
[0007] Furthermore, the water ring vacuum pump is connected to a motor, and the controller is electrically connected to the motor.
[0008] During operation, this water ring vacuum pump inlet pressure detection system can detect the pressure differential across the gas opening control valve via the first and second pressure detection points, enabling more accurate monitoring of the water ring vacuum pump's status. Especially during extended operation, changes in the front-to-rear pressure values can promptly detect abnormalities in the vacuum pump's operation, ensuring proper operation of the vacuum pump. Furthermore, the controller adjusts and controls the liquid opening control valve based on the detected air pressure parameters, and further adjusts the water supply based on the data fed back by the air pressure detector, ensuring the water ring vacuum pump achieves optimal operating conditions.
