Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of energy saving of circulating pumps, in particular to a pressure-opening and blocking device component for a pipeline of a pump system. [Background Technology]

[0002] During the implementation of energy-saving retrofit projects for existing circulating pumps, there are sometimes instances of backflow into the existing pump system being retrofitted, with the inlet service valve not properly closed or missing. If an energy-saving pump is installed directly, the pump room will be flooded during installation, which violates safety regulations. Installation must be permitted only after ensuring that the pump room is not flooded.

[0003] During the shutdown and maintenance period, the water in the pool can be drained below the installation required water level line, the valve can be replaced or installed first, and then the energy-saving pump can be installed. However, users cannot shut down production at will, and the construction period may be delayed for more than one year.

[0004] Alternatively, pressure tapping and sealing can be used. Currently, pressure tapping and sealing equipment on the market is designed for high-pressure pipelines like those used in oil and gas pipelines and municipal pipelines. These devices are complex, large, and heavy, typically requiring only one set for each pipe size. This makes tapping and sealing labor intensive and expensive, with installation costs increasing several times over. The inlet pressure of a circulating pump is typically only 0.01-0.03 MPa, lower than that of oil and gas pipelines and municipal pipelines. [Utility Model Content]

[0009] Furthermore, the drilling assembly includes a drill bit 12, one end of which is mounted on a pistol drill.

[0010] Furthermore, the sizes of the airbag 11-3 and the support rod 11-4 are compatible with the size of the circulation pump inlet pipe 1. The head of the support rod 11-4 is designed to be spherical to avoid piercing the airbag 11-3. The airbag 11-3 is made of high-elastic rubber.

[0011] Furthermore, the round rod 11-1 of the sealing component is interference fit with the rubber sealing sleeve 9, and the airbag 11-3 and the support rod 11-4 are both in contact and connected with the lower part of the inner wall of the circulation pump inlet pipe 1.
