DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0028] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on this application.
[0029] It should also be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.
[0030] The following is a detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a high-speed centrifugal ceramic ball bearing vacuum pump includes a pump body for gas suction, compression and discharge and a motor component for driving the vacuum pump to operate.
[0032] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the pump body includes a volute 1 and a three-dimensional flow impeller 2 installed inside the volute 1.
[0033] The motor components described above include a motor barrel 3 and a front end cover 4 and a rear end cover 5 provided on both ends of the motor barrel 3. The front end cover 4 is fixedly connected to the volute 1 by screws. The interior of the motor barrel 3 is provided with a rotor shaft 6 which is axially arranged and fixed at both ends to the front end cover 4 and the rear end cover 5 respectively, a rotor punching body 7 installed in the middle of the rotor shaft 6, and a stator 8 installed on the outer diameter of the rotor punching body 7.
[0034] The left end of the rotor shaft 6 passes through the front cover 4 and connects to the three-dimensional flow impeller 2. The three-dimensional flow impeller 2 operates in zero-contact with the volute 1 and the front cover 4. The clearance between each of the three components is designed to be 0.4-0.6mm. This structural design significantly reduces component wear, thereby extending the service life of the equipment.
[0035] Since there is no additional resistance caused by contact friction, the loss of mechanical energy is greatly reduced, allowing the equipment to more efficiently convert the input electrical energy or other power into kinetic energy and pressure energy of the fluid, thereby improving the overall operating efficiency of the equipment and reducing energy consumption.
[0036] This designed gap enables the gas to flow more smoothly between the three-dimensional flow impeller 2 and the volute 1, reduces the generation of eddies and turbulence, improves the flow efficiency of the fluid, further enhances the performance of the equipment, reduces energy loss, and makes the pressure and flow of the fluid more stable.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, bearings 9 are provided at the connection between the front and rear covers 4 and 5 and the rotor shaft 6. These bearings 9 are ceramic ball bearings. These bearings 9 have high hardness and a low coefficient of friction, significantly extending the life of the device. Furthermore, the material has strong high-temperature resistance and insulation properties, ensuring stable operation of the vacuum pump.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in order to better ensure the waterproof performance of the vacuum pump equipment, an O-ring E10 is installed at the radial fitting position between the motor barrel 3 and the front end cover 4, and an O-ring B11 is installed at the radial fitting position between the motor barrel 3 and the rear end cover 5, and sealant is applied on both axial fitting surfaces.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in order to further enhance the waterproof performance, a first floating sealing ring 12 and a second floating sealing ring 13 are respectively installed on the front cover 4 and the rear cover 5 of the vacuum pump. The first floating sealing ring 12 is located on the connecting surface between the front cover 4 and the three-dimensional flow impeller 2 and is arranged around the left end of the rotor shaft 6. The second floating sealing ring 13 is arranged in the rear cover 5 and is arranged around the right end of the rotor shaft 6.
[0040] A junction box 14 is installed on the outer diameter of the motor barrel 3, and a sealing gasket 15 is installed between the junction box 14 and the motor barrel 3. A terminal block is provided in the junction box 14.
[0041] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, the rear end cover 5 is provided with a small impeller 16, and the motor barrel 3 is provided with a heat dissipation channel 17 arranged in the axial direction. The rear end cover 5 is provided with a wind shield 18 covering the small impeller 16 and the heat dissipation channel 17. Since the entire motor will generate high temperature during operation, the function of the small impeller 16 is to rotate at high speed through direct drive, generate a flow field through the small blades 9, and generate a wind pressure area in the wind shield 18. The cold air passes through the cavity on the surface of the motor barrel 3 to dissipate heat for the entire motor.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a fairing 19 is fixedly attached to the end of the three-dimensional flow impeller 2. The operating principle of a vacuum pump is to allow the gas to acquire kinetic energy and pressure energy through the rotation of the impeller, thereby achieving gas discharge. The presence of the fairing 19 allows the gas to enter the impeller at a more appropriate angle and speed, improving the impeller's efficiency in working the gas, thereby increasing the vacuum pump's extraction efficiency and further optimizing gas flow.
[0043] The above is a description of the embodiments of the present invention. Through the above description of the disclosed embodiments, professional and technical personnel in the field can implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to professional and technical personnel in the field. The general principles defined in this article can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but should conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
