Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum pumps, in particular to an anti-dumping and oil leakage device for a vacuum pump. Background Art
[0002] Existing oil-sealed vacuum pumps are basically based on Figure 1 The structure shown in the figure includes a pump body 1, an oil tank 2 and an oil mist collector 3. The oil outlet of the oil tank 2 is directly connected to the oil mist collector 3. Since the vacuum pump is inevitably tilted during use or transportation, when the vacuum pump tilts along the X or Y direction, as shown in the figure, Figure 2 As shown in FIG, the oil in the oil tank will leak to the outside through the oil mist collector due to impact, which not only causes oil waste but also pollutes the environment. Therefore, it is necessary to design an anti-dumping oil leakage device for a vacuum pump.
[0003] A Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN112610488B proposes a tipping-up anti-oil leakage structure for a vacuum pump, including a pump body and an oil tank located on the front side of the pump body. A catcher is installed on the corresponding refueling port on the top surface of the oil tank. The corresponding inner port of the refueling port in the oil tank is connected to the upper port of the choke tube, and the lower port of the choke tube extends downward in a spiral shape to above the oil level in the oil tank. When the pump body is tipped to the left, right, front and rear, the vacuum pump oil in the oil tank is located outside the upper port of the choke tube. In addition, a Chinese patent with the authorization publication number CN214577597U proposes an anti-side-overturn oil leakage trap for a vacuum pump, comprising an exhaust valve core located above the exhaust port of the oil tank, the exhaust valve core housing being equipped with a trap housing, the lower end of the trap housing extending downward to form a pump oil interception chamber, one end of a choke tube fixedly mounted in the pump oil interception chamber to prevent the pump oil in the oil tank from overflowing toward the exhaust valve core when the pump body tips over, the other end of the choke tube spirally extending downward to the outside of the trap housing and dockingly fixed to the exhaust port. Both of the above structures have a certain anti-overturn oil leakage effect, but both rely on integrating the anti-leakage structure into the oil tank or the trap, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive to install, requiring modifications to the design of the oil tank and the trap, bringing certain difficulties to production and subsequent repair and maintenance.

[0025] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0026] Reference Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the anti-dumping and oil leakage device for a vacuum pump according to this embodiment comprises a pump body 1, an oil tank 2, and a trap 3. The anti-dumping and oil leakage device 4 is connected between the oil tank 2 and the trap 3 and comprises, from bottom to top, a lower cover 5, a middle cover 6, and an upper cover 7. The lower end of the lower cover 5 is provided with a lower connecting port 5a connected to the oil outlet of the oil tank 2. The lower connecting port 5a is threadedly connected to the oil outlet of the oil tank 2, with a sealing ring 10 disposed therebetween.
[0027] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the lower cover 5 is provided with a circumferential retaining wall 5b with an opening. One side of the opening extends to the outer circumferential wall of the lower cover 5 to form a closed end 5d. The middle cover 6, the outer circumferential wall of the lower cover 5, and the circumferential retaining wall 5b together enclose a flow channel 5c. The lower cover 5 has a lower cover inlet 5e defined within the circumferential retaining wall 5b, and the middle cover 6 has a middle cover outlet 6a corresponding to the closed end 5d. The upper cover 7 is provided with an upper connection port 7a connected to the collector 3. The upper connection port 7a is threadedly connected to the collector 3, with a sealing ring 10 interposed therebetween. The lower connection port 5a, lower cover inlet 5e, flow channel 5c, middle cover outlet 6a, and upper connection port 7a are sequentially connected. The flow channel spirals upward from the lower cover inlet to the middle cover outlet.
[0028] The lower cover 5 and middle cover 6, as well as the middle cover 6 and upper cover 7, are detachably connected. An upper sealing paper gasket 8 is sandwiched between the upper cover 7 and the middle cover 6. The upper sealing paper gasket 8 is hollow and annular and does not cover the middle cover outlet 6a. The center area of the upper sealing paper gasket 8 is connected to the upper connection port 7a. Bolts penetrate the middle cover 6 and the upper sealing paper gasket 8 and are threadedly connected to the upper cover 7. A connecting post 6b protrudes from the lower end of the middle cover 6. A connecting hole 5f is defined within the circumferential retaining wall 5b of the lower cover 5. Bolts penetrate the connecting hole 5f and are threadedly connected to the connecting post 6b. An annular lower sealing paper gasket 9 is sandwiched between the middle cover 6 and the lower cover 5. The lower sealing paper gasket 9 is provided with a paper gasket outlet 9a that communicates with the middle cover outlet 6a.
[0029] The anti-dumping and oil leakage device described in this embodiment is an external installation form, which is tightly fixed to the oil tank through threads and sealing rings. At the same time, the upper end is connected to a conventional collector through threads and sealing rings. It is only necessary to design the threads of the lower connecting port 5a and the upper connecting port 7a according to the threads of the oil outlet of the oil tank and the collector. There is no need to change the structure of the oil tank 2 and the collector 3, and it can be used as an optional accessory. It has strong adaptability and is more flexible and convenient to use.
[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, after being poured out, the oil in the oil tank 2 must bypass the highest point of the flow channel 5c as shown by the arrow before it can flow into the collector 3. This height is higher than the center height of the vacuum pump, which can prevent the vacuum pump oil from leaking out of the collector 3.
