[0048] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, all connections / linkages involved in the patent do not simply refer to direct contact between components, but rather to the ability to form a better connection structure by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to specific implementation conditions. The various technical features in this utility model can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.
[0049] Reference Figure 1 A feeding system includes a first pump group 1, a second pump group 2, an inlet pipe 3, and an outlet pipe 4;
[0050] The feed pipe 3 is connected to the feed inlets of the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2;
[0051] The discharge pipe 4 is connected to the discharge ports of the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2;
[0052] The discharge flow rates of the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2 compensate each other to stabilize the discharge flow rate of the discharge pipe 4 and eliminate flow pulses at the discharge pipe 3.
[0053] Pump pulsation refers to the periodic fluctuations in fluid flow rate or pressure that occur when a pump is transporting fluid, due to the pump's operating principle or structural characteristics. This fluctuation manifests as discontinuous fluid flow; the fluid does not flow smoothly but rather in pulsating bursts.
[0054] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the first pump group 1 pumps out slurry, the flow rate of slurry pumped out to the discharge pipe 4 gradually increases; while the flow rate of the second pump group 2 pumped to the discharge pipe 4 gradually decreases due to the pulse; and vice versa; therefore, the discharge flow rates of the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2 compensate each other, and the flow rate of slurry flowing out from the discharge pipe 4 always remains stable.
[0055] Reference Figures 4-6 In one embodiment, the first pump assembly 1 includes a first housing 11 and a first piston 12. The first piston 12 is slidably disposed in the first housing 11. The first housing 11 is divided into a first left chamber 13 and a first right chamber 14 with the first piston 12 as the boundary.
[0056] The first left cavity 13 is provided with a first left discharge port 131 and a first left inlet port 132;
[0057] The first right cavity 14 is provided with a first right discharge port 141 and a first right inlet port 142;
[0058] The second pump assembly 2 includes a second housing 21 and a second piston 22. The second piston 22 is slidably disposed in the second housing 21. The second housing 21 is divided into a second left chamber 23 and a second right chamber 24 with the second piston 22 as the boundary.
[0059] The second left cavity 23 is provided with a second left discharge port 231 and a second left inlet port 232;
[0060] The second right cavity 24 is provided with a second right discharge port 241 and a second right inlet port 242;
[0061] The first left inlet 132, the first right inlet 142, the second left inlet 232, the second right inlet 242, the first left outlet 131, the first right outlet 141, the second left outlet 231, and the second right outlet 241 are all unidirectional to avoid slurry backflow.
[0062] The working principle of the first pump group 1 is as follows: When the first piston 12 moves toward the left side of the first housing 11, the slurry in the first left cavity 13 is pumped out through the first left outlet 131, and the first right cavity 14 forms a negative pressure, so the slurry enters the first right cavity 14 through the first right inlet 142; when the first piston 12 moves toward the right side of the first housing 11, the slurry in the first right cavity 14 is pumped out through the first right outlet 141, and the slurry enters the first left cavity 13 through the second left inlet 232; the working principle of the second pump group 2 is the same as that of the first pump group 1, and will not be described in detail here.
[0063] Therefore, by controlling the moving speed of the first piston 12 and the second piston 22, the pumping flow rate of the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2 can be controlled, thereby controlling the pressure fluctuation at the discharge pipe 3 and ensuring the stability of the slurry flow rate in the discharge pipe 3.
[0064] Specifically, the opening and closing states of the first left discharge port 131 and the first left inlet port 132 are opposite, the opening and closing states of the first right discharge port 141 and the first right inlet port 142 are opposite, and the opening and closing states of the first left discharge port 131 and the first right inlet port 142 are the same.
[0065] When the first piston 12 moves toward the left side of the first housing 11, the slurry in the first left cavity 13 is pumped out through the first left outlet 131. Therefore, it can be known that the first left outlet 131 is in the open state, the first left inlet 132 is in the closed state, the first right inlet 142 is in the open state, and the first right outlet 141 is in the closed state. This can prevent the slurry in the first left cavity 13 from being pumped out through the first left inlet 132, and prevent the first right outlet 141 from sucking in the slurry pumped out by the first left inlet 132, thus avoiding slurry backflow and causing flow fluctuations.
[0066] The second left discharge port 231 has the opposite opening and closing state to the second left inlet port 232, and the second right discharge port 241 has the opposite opening and closing state to the second right inlet port 242. The second left discharge port 231 has the same opening and closing state as the second right inlet port 242. The working principle of the second pump group 2 is the same as that of the first pump group 1, and will not be described in detail here.
[0067] Specifically, it also includes a frame 5, and the first pump group 1 and the second pump group 2 have the same structure;
[0068] The first housing 11 and the second housing 21 are fixed to the frame 5;
[0069] Reference Figures 3-5Taking the first pump group 1 as an example, the first pump group 1 further includes a first piston rod 151, a piston rod connecting block 152, a first slide rail 16, and a first drive group 17; the first piston rod 151 is fixedly connected to the first piston 12, and part of the first piston rod 151 is located in the first left cavity 13, and the other part extends out of the first left cavity 13 and is fixedly connected to the piston rod connecting block 152; the piston rod connecting block 152 slides on the first slide rail 16; the first drive group 17 is installed on the frame 5, and the output end of the first drive group 17 is connected to the first piston rod 151; the first drive group 17 drives the piston rod connecting block 152 to slide on the first slide rail 16, and drives the first piston rod 151 and the first piston 12 to slide in the first housing 11, which helps to accurately control the stroke of the first piston 12, keep the movement direction of the first piston 12 from deviating, accurately control the movement of the first piston 12, and further eliminate the flow pulse at the discharge pipe 3.
[0070] Reference Figures 3-5 Specifically, the first drive group 17 includes a first drive member 171 and a lead screw 172;
[0071] The lead screw 172 is threadedly connected to the piston rod connecting block 152; the first driving member 171 drives the lead screw 172 to rotate, so as to drive the piston rod connecting block 152 to slide on the first slide rail 16 and the first piston 12 to slide inside the first housing 11.
[0072] The first driving component 171 drives the lead screw 172 to rotate, which can control the movement of the piston rod connecting block 152 with high precision and accurately control the movement of the first piston 12. The setting of the piston rod connecting block 152 optimizes the spatial layout of the system. The first driving component 171 and the lead screw 172 can be set on one side of the first housing 11, and the lead screw 172 is parallel to the central axis of the first housing 11 and parallel to the first slide rail 16, making the spatial layout of the system more compact and saving space.
[0073] Specifically, the piston rod connecting block 152 is fixedly connected to a lead screw nut, and the lead screw 172 rotates, thereby driving the piston rod connecting block 152 to move.
[0074] Reference Figures 3-5 More specifically, it also includes a piston rod fixing seat 182 and a second slide rail 19; the first piston 12 is fixed on the first piston rod 151, part of the first piston rod 151 is located in the first right cavity 14, and the other part of the first piston rod 151 extends out of the first right cavity 14 and is fixedly connected to the piston rod fixing seat 182, and the piston rod fixing seat 182 slides on the second slide rail 19.
[0075] The second slide rail 19 and the piston rod fixing seat 182 help to further stabilize the position of the first piston 12 in the first housing 11, reduce the position change of the first piston 12 caused by mechanical vibration, and reduce the impact on the control of slurry flow.
[0076] The piston rod fixing seat 182 can serve as a support for the other end of the first piston rod 151, further stabilizing the position of the first piston 12 within the first housing 11 and improving the stability of slurry control.
