[0025] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a double-cylinder plunger pump includes a hopper 4, a first cylinder body 3, a second cylinder body 8, a rotating shaft 10, a first piston 2, a second piston 7, a first drive mechanism 1, a second drive mechanism 6, a third drive mechanism 11 and an S tube 9; the hopper 4 is used to hold the material to be pumped, and is provided with a discharge port 5 and two feed ports, which are respectively connected to one end of the first cylinder body 3 and one end of the second cylinder body 8; the other end of the first cylinder body 3 and the other end of the second cylinder body 8 are respectively used to be connected to the mounting seat.
[0026] The first piston 2 is arranged in the first cylinder body 3, and one side of it is connected to the first driving mechanism 1. The first driving mechanism 1 is used to drive the first piston 2 to reciprocate along the central axis of the first cylinder body 3, thereby pumping out or inhaling the material to be pumped; the second piston 7 is arranged in the second cylinder body 8, and one side of it is connected to the second driving mechanism 6. The second driving mechanism 6 is used to drive the second piston 7 to reciprocate along the central axis of the second cylinder body 8, thereby pumping out or inhaling the material to be pumped; the first piston 2 and the second piston 7 have the same movement speed and opposite movement directions, ensuring that the first piston 2 and the second piston 7 immediately move in the opposite direction when they each move to the end of one direction, without any pause in between, thereby ensuring the continuity of the discharge of the material to be pumped in the first cylinder body 3 and the second cylinder body 8.
[0027] The S tube 9 is arranged in the hopper 4, and its discharge end is rotatably connected to the discharge port 5, and the feed end is used to cooperate with the two feed ports respectively; the rotating shaft 10 is an L-shaped structure, one end of which is fixedly connected to the S tube 9 and is coaxially arranged with the discharge end of the S tube 9, and the other end passes through the hopper 4 and is connected to the third driving mechanism 11. The third driving mechanism 11 is used to drive the feed end of the S tube 9 to dock with the feed port corresponding to the first cylinder 3 through the rotating shaft 10 when the first piston 2 moves to the end in the opposite direction of the hopper 4, and drive the feed end of the S tube 9 to dock with the feed port corresponding to the second cylinder 8 through the rotating shaft 10 when the second piston 7 moves to the end in the opposite direction of the hopper 4.
[0028] Preferably, to facilitate the rotational docking of the S-tube 9 with the two feed ports, the distance between the sidewall of the feed end of the S-tube 9 near the bottom of the hopper 4 and the bottom of the hopper 4 is greater than or equal to 1 cm. The diameter of the port at the feed end of the S-tube 9 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the two feed ports. Both the hopper 4 and the S-tube 9 are made of stainless steel.
[0029] In this embodiment, the first drive mechanism 1 and the second drive mechanism 6 are both hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, or linear motors, which are respectively connected to the first piston 2 and the second piston 7 so that the first piston 2 and the second piston 7 can reciprocate independently. The third drive mechanism 11 is used to cause the rotating shaft 10 to drive the feed end of the S-tube 9 to reciprocate between the two feed ports of the hopper 4. In this embodiment, there are two third drive mechanisms 11, and the two third drive mechanisms 11 are hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, or linear motors, which are synchronized with the first drive mechanism 1 and the second drive mechanism 6. One of the third drive mechanisms 11 is disposed near one side of the first cylinder body 3, and its output end is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 10, and is used to drive the rotating shaft 10 to drive the S-tube 9 to dock with the corresponding feed port of the first cylinder body 3; the other third drive mechanism 11 is disposed near one side of the second cylinder body 8, and its output end is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 10, and is used to drive the rotating shaft 10 to drive the S-tube 9 to dock with the corresponding feed port of the second cylinder body 8. In other embodiments, the third drive mechanism 11 has two output ends; one of the output ends is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 10 and is used to drive the rotating shaft 10 to drive the S-tube 9 to dock with the corresponding feed port of the first cylinder 3; the other output end is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 10 and is used to drive the rotating shaft 10 to drive the S-tube 9 to dock with the corresponding feed port of the second cylinder 8. The first piston 2 can reciprocate within the first cylinder 3 under the drive of the first drive mechanism 1, and the second piston 7 can reciprocate within the second cylinder 8 under the drive of the second drive mechanism 6. One end of the S-tube 9 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 10, and the S-tube 9 can reciprocate along the rotating shaft 10 within the hopper 4 under the drive of the third drive mechanism 11.
[0030] When the two feed ports are located below the material to be pumped, the movement of the first piston 2 in the first cylinder 3 sucks the material to be pumped into the first cylinder 3, the feed end of the S-tube 9 rotates to face the first cylinder 3, the first piston 2 moves in the first cylinder 3 and discharges the material to be pumped through the discharge end of the S-tube 9. At the same time, the movement of the second piston 7 in the second cylinder 8 sucks the material to be pumped into the second cylinder 8, the feed end of the S-tube 9 rotates to face the second cylinder 8, the second piston 7 moves in the second cylinder 8 and discharges the material to be pumped through the discharge end of the S-tube 9.
[0031] The discharge end of the S-tube 9 always faces the discharge port 5 of the hopper 4. Driven by the third drive mechanism 11, the feed end of the S-tube 9 can swing back and forth along the rotation axis 10. The first and second cylinder bodies 3 and 8 remain stationary. During normal operation, the first and second pistons 2 and 7 move at the same speed but in opposite directions. Upon reaching the end of each direction, the first and second pistons 2 and 7 immediately reverse direction.
[0032] When the first piston 2 moves in the opposite direction of the hopper 4 until it stops under the drive of the first driving mechanism 1, the first cylinder 3 is filled with material, the feed end of the S tube 9 rotates to face the first cylinder 3 and remains stationary, and the first piston 2 moves toward the hopper 4 under the drive of the first driving mechanism 1, thereby pushing out the material to be pumped in the first cylinder 3 and discharging it to the discharge port 5 through the discharge end of the S tube 9.
[0033] When the second piston 7 moves in the opposite direction of the hopper 4 until it stops under the drive of the second driving mechanism 6, the second cylinder 8 is filled with material, the feed end of the S tube 9 rotates to face the second cylinder 8 and remains stationary, and the second piston 7 moves in the direction of the hopper 4 under the drive of the second driving mechanism 6, thereby pushing out the material in the second cylinder 8 and discharging it to the discharge port 5 through the discharge end of the S tube 9.
[0034] In this embodiment, the first drive mechanism 1, the second drive mechanism 6, and the third drive mechanism 11 are all reciprocating mechanisms, and their motion frequencies are consistent. Preferably, the first drive mechanism 1 and the second drive mechanism 6 are hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, or linear motors, and the third drive mechanism 11 can be one of a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or a linear motor. The first drive mechanism 1 is connected to the first piston 2, the second drive mechanism 6 is connected to the second piston 7, and the third drive mechanism 11 is connected to the rotating shaft 10, thereby causing the first piston 2 in the first cylinder 3, the second piston 7 in the second cylinder 8, and the S-tube 9 in the hopper 4 to independently reciprocate.
[0035] The working process of the double-cylinder plunger pump of the utility model is specifically as follows:
[0036] First, the material to be pumped is added to the hopper 4, and the S-tube 9 is kept stationary. The first piston 2 is driven by the first driving mechanism 1 to move in the opposite direction of the hopper 4. During the movement of the first piston 2 in the opposite direction of the hopper 4, the material to be pumped in the hopper 4 is sucked into and fills the first cylinder 3. When the first piston 2 moves to the end in the opposite direction of the hopper 4, the S-tube 9 is driven by the third driving mechanism 11 to rotate to face the feed port corresponding to the first cylinder 3 and remains stationary. Then, the first piston 2 is driven by the first driving mechanism 1 to move in the direction of the hopper 4. During the movement of the first piston 2 in the direction of the hopper 4, the material to be pumped in the first cylinder 3 is pushed out and discharged to the discharge port 5 through the S-tube 9.
[0037] When the first piston 2 moves to the end toward the hopper 4, since the movement speeds of the first piston 2 and the second piston 7 are the same and the directions are always opposite, the second piston 7 also moves to the end in the opposite direction of the hopper 4 under the drive of the second drive mechanism 6. At the same time, the second cylinder 8 is also filled with the material to be pumped. At this time, the S tube 9 is driven by the third drive mechanism 11 to rotate to face the feed port corresponding to the second cylinder 8 and remain stationary. Then, the second piston 7 moves toward the hopper 4 under the drive of the second drive mechanism 6. During the leftward movement of the second piston 7, the material to be pumped in the second cylinder 8 is pushed out and discharged to the discharge port 5 through the S tube 9. The above process is repeated continuously to achieve continuous pumping of the material to be pumped.
