Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of centrifugal pumps, in particular to a sealing structure of a centrifugal pump. Background Art
[0002] A centrifugal pump is a pump that transports liquid by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the impeller. Figure 1 The figure shows a cross-sectional structure diagram of a centrifugal pump in the prior art, wherein 101 represents the centrifugal pump body, 102 represents the drive shaft, 103 represents the impeller arranged on the drive shaft, 104 represents the bushing fixedly arranged on the inner side of the centrifugal pump body, 105 represents the shaft sleeve fixedly sleeved on the drive shaft, and the shaft sleeve and the bushing are connected by a spiral structure. The shaft sleeve and the bushing divide the interior of the centrifugal pump body into two left and right chambers. The impeller is located in the left chamber, and the right chamber is provided with a seal 106, and the seal is movable. Sleeved on the shaft sleeve, the seal is used to enclose a flushing area 107 between the shaft sleeve and the bushing. A flushing liquid inlet hole 108 is provided on the flushing area. When the centrifugal pump body is working, high-pressure liquid (generally set to water) is delivered to the flushing area through the flushing liquid inlet hole, so that the hydraulic pressure inside the flushing area is greater than the hydraulic pressure inside the left chamber, and then it is difficult for the material liquid inside the left chamber to overflow from the threaded structure between the shaft sleeve and the bushing to the inside of the flushing area, which also prevents the material liquid from entering the right chamber, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the centrifugal pump body.
[0003] However, due to the dynamic and static matching relationship between the seal and the sleeve, when the flushing area is in a high-pressure state, part of the high-pressure liquid inside the flushing area will overflow from the contact gap between the seal and the sleeve, and finally flow out through the through hole 109 on the centrifugal pump body to the work surface or the ground, causing inconvenience in use.
[0004] To this end, we propose a sealing structure for a centrifugal pump to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] like Figure 2 The centrifugal pump body 101 shown in the figure is provided with a drive shaft 102, an impeller 103, a bushing 104, a shaft sleeve 105, a seal 106, a flushing area 107, a flushing liquid inlet hole 108 and a through hole 109 in the same position and structure as those in the pump body of the prior art. The flushing area 107 is formed by the bushing 104, the shaft sleeve 105 and the seal 106 together inside the centrifugal pump body 101. Under this structure, the shaft sleeve 105 and the seal 106 are dynamically sealed.
[0032] Example 1:
[0033] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, a sealing structure of a centrifugal pump includes the flushing area 107 mentioned above and a second seal 3 sleeved on the shaft sleeve 105. The lip of the second seal 3 is arranged around the outside of the seal 106, so that the seal 106, the second seal 3 and the shaft sleeve 105 together form a temporary storage area 4. The temporary storage area 4 is connected to the flushing area 107 through a gap formed by a dynamic seal. When the centrifugal pump body 101 is working normally, the high-pressure liquid inside the flushing area 107 will overflow from the gap into the temporary storage area 4 for storage. Compared with the technical solution in the prior art where the high-pressure liquid directly overflows to the ground, the present invention can store the high-pressure liquid overflowing from the flushing area 107 through the provision of the temporary storage area 4, and will not cause the high-pressure liquid to leak to the ground and cause pollution.
[0034] like Figure 3As shown, in order to continuously collect the high-pressure liquid inside the temporary storage area 4, a water inlet 5 and a water outlet 6 can be opened on the temporary storage area 4, and a water inlet hose (not shown in the figure) is connected to the water inlet 5. When in use, the water inlet 5 transports liquid (generally water) into the temporary storage area 4, and the water outlet 6 discharges the liquid inside the temporary storage area 4. The flow of this liquid will drive the high-pressure liquid to flow out of the temporary storage area 4, ensuring that the temporary storage area 4 can continuously collect high-pressure liquid and the collection effect is good.
[0035] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned arrangement, in order to minimize the overflow of high-pressure liquid from the flushing area 107 into the temporary storage area 4, the present embodiment improves the seal 106 in the prior art, and arranges the seal 106 as a first seal 2 with the following structure. Specifically, the first seal 2 comprises an outer sealing ring 201 and an inner sealing ring 202. One end of the outer sealing ring 201 is dynamically sealed and sleeved on the shaft sleeve 105 to form a dynamic seal. The other end of the outer sealing ring 201 is flared to cooperate with the shaft sleeve 105 and the bushing 104 to form the flushing area 107. The inner sealing ring 202 is dynamically sealed and sleeved on the shaft sleeve 105. An elastic member 9 is arranged between the outer sealing ring 201 and the inner sealing ring 202. The elastic member 9 is used to deform the inner sealing ring 202 and fit tightly with the shaft sleeve 105. Preferably, the elastic member 9 is a spring, and both ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the inner side of the flared end of the outer sealing ring 201 and the outer side of the inner sealing ring 202 respectively. By utilizing the elastic action of the spring, a force can be continuously applied to the inner sealing ring 202, so that the inner sealing ring 202 fits tightly with the shaft sleeve 105, ensuring the sealing effect between the two, thereby reducing the high-pressure liquid overflowing from the flushing area 107 to the inside of the temporary storage area 4.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer sealing ring 201 can be flared, and the inner sealing ring 202 is located inside the flared end of the outer sealing ring 201 and is integrally formed with the outer sealing ring 201. The flared end of the outer sealing ring 201 is fixedly connected to the bushing 104 by bolts.
[0037] Furthermore, in order to ensure the stability of the connection between the first seal 2 and the second seal 3, a limit block 10 can be set between the first seal 2 and the second seal 3, and the first seal 2, the second seal 3 and the limit block 10 are connected by bolts.
[0038] Example 2:
[0039] like Figure 5-Figure 6As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that this embodiment proposes a method for collecting high-pressure liquid that is different from embodiment one. Specifically: a water outlet 6 is provided at the bottom of the temporary storage area 4, and a collection tank 7 is detachably installed at the water outlet 6. A vent 8 is provided on the temporary storage area 4 for connecting the temporary storage area 4 with the outside world. When in use, the collection tank 7 can be used to temporarily store the high-pressure liquid. Subsequently, the staff only needs to periodically disassemble the collection tank 7 and pour out the high-pressure liquid inside it. This method does not require the setting of flowing water to drive the high-pressure liquid to flow out, saving water resources.
[0040] For the detachable connection between the collection tank 7 and the water outlet 6, the mouth of the collection tank 7 can be provided with an external thread, and the water outlet 6 of the temporary storage area 4 can be provided with an internal thread, and the water outlet 6 and the collection tank 7 can be connected by the internal and external threads. Of course, the detachable connection between the collection tank 7 and the water outlet 6 is not limited to the above-mentioned structure, and can also be provided by a buckle connection method in the prior art, as long as it can achieve the corresponding detachable effect.
[0041] The above describes an embodiment of the present invention in detail. However, the above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
