DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The following further describes specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the descriptions of these embodiments are intended to aid understanding of the present invention and do not constitute limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with one another as long as they do not conflict with one another.

[0028] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a vane pump includes a pump body 1, a rotor 2 and vanes 3;

[0029] The blades 3 are movably connected to the rotor 2. The pump body 1 includes a pump seat 12 and an inner cam 11 disposed in the pump seat 12. The rotor 2 is disposed in the inner cam 11 so that the ends of the blades 3 contact the inner wall of the inner cam 11 when the rotor 2 rotates.

[0030] The inner wall includes a pressure wall 111 and a buffer wall 112. The distance between the pressure wall 111 and the rotation axis of the rotor 2 is smaller than the distance between the buffer wall 112 and the rotation axis of the rotor 2, so that the volume of the space formed by the blade 3 and the pressure wall 111 is smaller than the volume of the space formed by the blade 3 and the buffer wall 112.

[0031] The inner cam 11 is provided with a feed port 114 and a discharge port 115 , and both the feed port 114 and the discharge port 115 are opened on the pressure wall 111 .

[0032] like Figure 2 and 4 The arrow shown indicates the direction of rotation of the rotor 2. In the vane pump, the rotor 2 drives the vanes 3 to rotate within the inner cam 11. After the ends of the vanes 3 contact the inner wall of the inner cam 11, as the rotor 2 rotates, the vanes 3 slide relative to the rotor 2 according to the shape change of the inner wall of the inner cam 11, ensuring that the ends of the vanes 3 contact the inner wall of the inner cam 11. When the slurry or material enters the interior of the inner cam 11 from the feed port 114, it is first located in the space enclosed by the vanes 3 and the pressurizing wall 111. Then, as the rotor 2 drives the vanes 3 to rotate, the vanes 3 push the slurry or material into the space enclosed by the vanes 3 and the buffer wall 112. At this time, due to the increased volume of the space, the slurry or material is prevented from being squeezed for a long time. Finally, when it is needed to be discharged from the discharge port 115, the slurry or material enters another space enclosed by the vanes 3 and the pressurizing wall 111, achieving pressurization, thereby forcing the slurry or material out of the discharge port 115. In this way, the taste of the slurry or material can be guaranteed, thereby ensuring the quality of the final product.

[0033] Preferably, Figure 2 and 4 As shown, the inner wall further includes a transition wall 113, and the transition wall 113 is disposed between two adjacent pressurizing walls 111, between two adjacent buffer walls 112, and / or between an adjacent pressurizing wall 111 and a buffer wall 112;

[0034] The distance between the transition wall 113 and the rotation axis of the rotor 2 is greater than the distance between the pressure wall 111 and the rotation axis of the rotor 2 and is smaller than the distance between the buffer wall 112 and the rotation axis of the rotor 2, so that the volume of the space formed by the blade 3 and the transition wall 113 is greater than the volume of the space formed by the blade 3 and the pressure wall 111 and smaller than the volume of the space formed by the blade 3 and the buffer wall 112;

[0035] The distance from the rotating shaft of the rotor 2 to the same transition wall 113 is the same everywhere, ensuring that the slurry and materials can flow at a uniform speed in this space.

[0036] like Figure 4As shown, the pressure wall 111, the buffer wall 112 and the transition wall 113 are divided by dotted lines. The distance between the pressure wall 111 and the rotating shaft of the rotor 2 will change. The pressure wall 111 at the position of the feed port 114 increases as it moves away from the feed port 114, thereby reducing the pressure. The pressure wall 111 at the position of the discharge port 115 decreases as it moves closer to the discharge port 115, thereby increasing the pressure and making the slurry or material The material is extruded; the distance from the buffer wall 112 to the rotating shaft of the rotor 2 will change, wherein the buffer wall 112 close to the feed port 114, the distance from the buffer wall 112 to the rotating shaft of the rotor 2 will continue to increase in the direction away from the feed port 114, thereby further reducing the pressure, so that the slurry or material will not be squeezed for a long time; the buffer wall 112 close to the discharge port 115, the distance from the buffer wall 112 to the rotating shaft of the rotor 2 will continue to decrease in the direction close to the discharge port 115, and the pressure will be increased in advance to prepare for entering the discharge port 115.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, when the blade 3 re-enters the space where the feed port 114 is located from the space where the discharge port 115 is located, the rotating shaft will contact the transition wall 113 between the two pressurized walls 111, and the end of the blade 3 will be completely retracted into the interior of the rotor 2, so that the air at this position can be discharged. When the blade 3 rotates to the space where the feed port 114 is located, a vacuum can be formed, thereby achieving the purpose of sucking the slurry or material from the feed port 114.

[0038] Optional, such as Figure 3 As shown, a partition plate 5 and an end cap 4 are sequentially provided on both sides of the pump base 12. One end of the rotor 2 passes through the partition plate 5 and the end cap 4 from one side of the pump base 12 and is then connected to the drive motor 7. In this embodiment, one end of the rotor 2 is connected to the drive motor 7 via a belt. A sealing strip is provided between the partition plate 5 and the pump base 12 to ensure the sealing of the space within the inner cam 11.

[0039] Specifically, a first pin hole 116 is defined on the side of the inner cam 11, and a second pin hole 51 is defined on the partition plate 5. The first pin hole 116 corresponds to the second pin hole 51, and the pin 6 passes through the second pin hole 51 and the first pin hole 116 in sequence to connect the partition plate 5 to the side of the inner cam 11. This allows for detachable assembly. To maintain the rotor 2 and blades 3, the partition plate 5 can be removed by disassembling the end cover 4 and loosening the pin 6, thereby exposing the rotor 2 and blades 3 within the inner cam 11.

[0040] It is worth noting that if Figure 3 and 6As shown, the end cover 4 is provided with a first locating pin 41 and a second locating pin 42. A locating hole 121 is provided on the side of the pump base 12 to match the first locating pin 41. The end of the pin shaft 6 is provided with a recessed portion 61 to match the second locating pin 42. In this way, the end cover 4 can be clamped to the pump base 12 while also being clamped to the partition 5, thus achieving a three-way connection between the end cover 4, the partition 5, and the pump base 12.

[0041] Preferably, Figure 3 and 7 As shown, the rotor 2 is provided with diameter grooves 21 corresponding to the blades 3 one by one, and the blades 3 are movably arranged in the diameter grooves 21; in this embodiment, the diameter grooves 21 are arranged along the diameter of the rotating shaft;

[0042] The blade 3 includes an abutment portion 31 and an avoidance connection portion 32 . The abutment portion 31 is provided at both ends of the avoidance connection portion 32 . The avoidance connection portions 32 of the plurality of blades 3 are cross-distributed in the rotor 2 .

[0043] The blade 3 has a C-shaped structure, so that a space can be left between the two abutting portions 31. When the avoidance connection portions 32 of multiple blades 3 are cross-distributed in the rotor 2, the avoidance connection portions 32 of different blades 3 will not contact each other, thereby ensuring that the blade 3 can slide relative to the rotor 2.

[0044] A stuffing machine uses the vane pump, including a feed hopper 8 and a discharge nozzle 9, wherein the feed port 114 is connected to the feed hopper 8 to feed the pump body 1, and the discharge port 115 is connected to the discharge nozzle 9 to discharge the pump body 1.

[0045] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. It is apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to these embodiments may be made without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and these changes and modifications still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
