Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of pumps, in particular to a sealing structure of a self-priming pump. Background Art

[0002] Before starting the self-priming pump, the pump casing must be filled with water. After starting, the motor drives the impeller to rotate at high speed to generate high pressure, causing the water in the impeller groove to flow to the volute. At this time, a vacuum is formed at the inlet. Due to the effect of atmospheric pressure, the air and liquid in the pump and pipeline are sucked into the impeller through the water inlet and the trumpet-shaped nozzle, and then enter the water outlet of the pump body through the guide groove in the guide vane and are ejected out.

[0003] The motor shaft of a self-priming pump passes through the impeller cavity within the pump casing and is fixed to the impeller, or the motor shaft is connected to the pump shaft via a coupling, which drives the impeller. However, during rotation, the motor shaft may move axially, which can easily damage the seal between the motor shaft and the pump casing, causing leakage in the pump casing and shortening the service life of the entire unit. Summary of the Invention

[0019] according to Figures 1 to 3The figure shows a sealing structure for a self-priming pump, comprising a motor housing 1 and a pump housing 2. A motor end cap 5 and a motor left end cap of different shapes are fixedly connected at each end of the motor housing 1. The motor end cap 5 is fixedly connected between the motor housing 1 and the pump housing 2. A bearing mounting portion 503 protrudes from one end of the motor end cap 5 toward the motor housing 1, and the bearing mounting portion 503 is provided with a bearing 7. The motor left end cap also has a bearing mounting portion, and the rotating shaft 3 can extend out of the motor left end cap and connect to the cooling fan. The motor end cap 5 and the motor left end cap together support the rotation of the motor rotating shaft 3. The motor end cap 5 has a mounting cavity 501. A circular portion 502 protrudes from one end of the motor end cap 5 toward the pump housing 2. The circular portion 502 abuts against the pump housing 2, and the interior of the circular portion 502 forms a mounting cavity 501 with the pump housing 2. The rotating shaft 3 is disposed within the motor housing 1. The pump housing 2 has a pump cavity 201 within it. The pump housing 2 has a stepped mounting hole 202 that connects to the pump chamber 201. A seal 4 is installed within the mounting hole 202. The pump housing 2 includes a water inlet and outlet chambers, both of which connect to the pump chamber 201. An impeller 8 is housed within the pump chamber 201, and the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the impeller 8, driving its rotation. The rotating shaft 3 extends through the mounting cavity 501 and the seal 4 into the pump chamber 201. A fastening assembly 6 is sleeved onto the rotating shaft 3, one end of which abuts against the seal 4 and restricts its axial movement.

[0020] The fastening assembly 6 includes a first fixing block 61 and a first fixing plate 62. One end of the first fixing block 61 rests against the seal 4. The first fixing plate 62 is fixed to the pump housing 2 via a fixing member, and the first fixing plate 62 presses against the first fixing block 61. The first fixing block 61 can be embedded in the mounting hole 202 and rest against the seal 4. The first fixing plate 62 is fixed to the end surface of the mounting hole 202 via a fixing member and then pressed onto one end surface of the first fixing block 61. The fixing block can limit the axial movement of the seal 4. Of course, the first fixing block 61 can also be not embedded in the mounting hole 202. Here, it is preferred that the first fixing block 61 is embedded in the mounting hole 202. The first fixing block 61 and the first fixing plate 62 can be a single piece or a separate piece.

[0021] The fastening assembly 6 also includes a second fixing block 63 and a third fixing block 64. A spring 65 is interposed between the second and third fixing blocks 63 and 64.

A second fixing groove 631 is recessed inwardly at the end of the second fixing block 63 near the first fixing block 61, with the other end of the first bearing 66 located within the second fixing groove 631.

[0022] Seal 1 (4) is embedded in mounting hole 202, with one end resting against the stepped surface of mounting hole 202 to prevent seal 1 (4) from falling out. Install the third fixing block 64, spring 65, and second fixing block 63 on the rotating shaft 3. Use a retaining spring to limit and secure the third fixing block 64. Install bearing 1 (66), first fixing plate 62, and first fixing block 61, and then pass seal 1 (4). The first fixing plate 62 is fixedly connected to the pump housing 2. The first fixing plate 62 limits the axial fall of the first fixing block 61. One end of bearing 1 (66) is embedded in the first fixing groove 611, and the second fixing block 63 is sleeved on the other end of bearing 1 (66) through the second fixing groove 631. The first fixing block 61 and the second fixing block 63 are supported by seal 2 (67) and seal 3 (68), respectively, to maintain a certain clearance fit with the rotating shaft 3. This allows the force of spring 65 to better compress seal 1 (4), making seal 1 (4) more sealing.
