[0035] Booster pumps are common equipment in water pipelines, mainly used to increase water pressure and ensure smooth water flow. They are widely used in various scenarios requiring increased water pressure. A booster pump mainly consists of a pump body 100, a pump cover 200, and an impeller. The booster pump has a pressure-boosting chamber 300 inside, within which the impeller is located and connected to the drive unit via a drive shaft. When the drive unit starts, it drives the impeller to rotate at high speed, creating a low-pressure zone inside the booster pump. This pressure difference draws external fluid into the booster pump. The impeller continues to rotate at high speed, pressurizing the fluid. During this process, the fluid velocity gradually decreases while the pressure gradually increases. Once the fluid is compressed to a certain level, it is discharged from the booster pump.
[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 7 According to a first aspect of the present invention, a booster pump housing assembly includes a pump body 100, a pump cover 200, and at least one set of snap-fit components. The pump cover 200 covers the pump body 100. The snap-fit components include a first snap-fit structure and a second snap-fit structure that can engage with each other. The first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure can be a slot-type or a snap-on type snap-fit structure. The first snap-fit structure is disposed on the pump body 100, and the second snap-fit structure is disposed on the pump cover 200. When the pump cover 200 is covered by the pump body 100, the pump cover 200 can rotate relative to the pump body 100 in a forward or reverse direction to engage or disengage the first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure. The interior of the pump cover 200 and the interior of the pump body 100 together form a booster chamber 300.
[0037] Specifically, the first snap-fit structure is arranged along the circumference of the pump body 100 and is an integral structure with the pump body 100, and the second snap-fit structure is arranged along the circumference of the pump cover 200 and is an integral structure with the pump cover 200. When the pump cover 200 rotates in the forward or reverse direction relative to the pump body 100, the first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure can move relative to each other and snap together or release the snap-fit.
[0038] By adopting the above structure, at least one set of snap-fit components is provided between the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200. The snap-fit components include a first snap-fit structure and a second snap-fit structure. When assembling the booster pump, the pump cover 200 is first placed on the pump body 100, and then the pump cover 200 is rotated to snap the first and second snap-fit structures together, thereby achieving a quick connection between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. When disassembling the booster pump, the pump cover 200 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the snap-fit between the first and second snap-fit structures, thereby achieving a quick separation between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. Compared with the traditional booster pump housing assembly using bolt connections, the booster pump housing assembly of this embodiment can more quickly connect or separate the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. It is simple and convenient to operate, and the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the booster pump is higher. It can better facilitate the production, assembly, and daily maintenance of the booster pump. Furthermore, the snap-fit components have a simple structure, are easy to manufacture, and have low processing costs.
[0039] It is understood that the pump cover 200 is usually circular in shape to facilitate rotation, and the outer periphery of the pump body 100 has an annular structure that can support the pump cover 200. Depending on actual needs, and to ensure that the first and second snap-fit structures can properly snap or release when the pump cover 200 rotates in the forward or reverse direction relative to the pump body 100, the pump cover 200 may also be in other irregular shapes. This utility model does not specifically limit this.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 , 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, the number of snap-fit components is at least two sets, and all snap-fit components are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200. Specifically, the number of snap-fit components is four sets, and the four sets of snap-fit components are arranged at intervals along the outer periphery of the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200.
[0041] By adopting the above structure, at least two sets of snap-fit components are evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200. These snap-fit components can connect the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200 together, making the connection between the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200 more stable. The snap-fit components evenly distributed on the outer periphery of the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200 can also ensure that when the pump cover 200 is closed on the pump body 100 and connected to the pump body 100, there will be no problem of one end of the pump body 100 or the pump cover 200 lifting up or separating from each other, resulting in gaps.
[0042] It should be noted that in some embodiments, these snap-fit components may not be arranged in a spaced-out manner, but rather unevenly distributed on the outer periphery of the pump body 100 and the pump cover 200. Thus, the pump cover 200 can only close onto the pump body 100 when it is in a specific direction or angle, or after closing onto the pump body 100, it can rotate relative to the pump body 100 in either a forward or reverse direction to engage the first and second snap-fit structures. When the pump cover 200 is in other directions or angles, it cannot close onto the pump body 100, or after closing onto the pump body 100, it cannot rotate relative to the pump body 100 in either a forward or reverse direction to engage the first and second snap-fit structures. This ensures that during the assembly of the booster pump, the pump cover 200 cannot be installed from an incorrect angle or direction, reducing the likelihood of assembly errors.
[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first snap-fit structure is a snap-fit groove 110, and the second snap-fit structure is a snap-fit block 210, or the first snap-fit structure is a snap-fit block 210 and the second snap-fit structure is a snap-fit groove 110; one end of the snap-fit groove 110 has an opening 111, and when the pump cover 200 rotates in the forward or reverse direction relative to the pump body 100, the snap-fit block 210 can pass through the opening 111 and be embedded in the snap-fit groove 110 or disengage from the snap-fit groove 110.
[0044] By adopting the above structure, the snap-fit groove 110 and the snap-fit block 210 can simply and reliably realize the snap-fit connection of the first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure, as well as the snap-fit connection release. The structure of the snap-fit groove 110 and the snap-fit block 210 is simple, convenient to process and manufacture, and has a low processing cost.
[0045] It should be noted that the snap-fit groove 110 and snap-fit block 210 provided on the pump body 100 or pump cover 200 have an arc along the length direction, so that the snap-fit block 210 can smoothly pass through the opening 111 and be inserted into the snap-fit groove 110 or disengage from the snap-fit groove 110 when the pump cover 200 rotates in the forward or reverse direction relative to the pump body 100.
[0046] Reference Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, the inside of the snap-fit groove 110 has a limiting part 112; the snap-fit block 210 passes through the opening 111 and is embedded in the snap-fit groove 110, and the snap-fit block 210 can abut against the limiting part 112.
[0047] By adopting the above structure, after the snap-fit block 210 moves a certain distance in the snap-fit groove 110, it abuts against the limiting part 112. The limiting part 112 restricts the movement of the snap-fit block 210 to limit the further rotation of the pump cover 200 relative to the pump body 100, preventing the snap-fit groove 110 and the snap-fit block 210 from disengaging due to excessive rotation of the pump cover 200 relative to the pump body 100 when they are snapped together. In addition, the limiting part 112 can also position the snap-fit block 210 relative to the snap-fit groove 110, thereby positioning the pump cover 200 relative to the pump body 100, so that the pump cover 200 or the pump body 100 can be in an accurate installation position after being rotated and snapped together, which facilitates the assembly of the booster pump.
[0048] It should be noted that the limiting part 112 is the side wall of the snap-fit groove 110 opposite to the opening 111. Depending on the actual needs, the limiting part 112 can also be a limiting structure set at any position inside the snap-fit groove 110.
[0049] Reference Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, at least a portion of the sidewalls of the snap-fit groove 110 and the opening 111 adjacent to or opposite to the opening are provided with observation windows 113.
[0050] By adopting the above structure, the internal condition of the snap-fit slot 110 can be observed through the observation window 113 from the outside of the snap-fit slot 110. When the snap-fit block 210 is inserted into the snap-fit slot 110, the position of the snap-fit block 210 inside the snap-fit slot 110 can be observed through the observation window 113, thereby determining whether the snap-fit block 210 and the snap-fit slot 110 are snapped into place.
[0051] It should be noted that in some embodiments, in order to make the connection more secure, the snap-fit block 210 and the snap-fit groove 110 are connected by an interference fit. The snap-fit block 210 needs to overcome friction to be embedded in the snap-fit groove 110. At this time, by setting a longer observation window 113, the friction between the snap-fit block 210 and the snap-fit groove 110 can be reduced, so that the snap-fit block 210 can be embedded in the snap-fit groove 110 more easily.
[0052] Reference Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, a sealing ring is provided between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. When the pump cover 200 is closed on the pump body 100, the sealing ring can seal the gap between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100.
[0053] By adopting the above structure, the sealing ring seals the gap between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100, thereby preventing fluid from flowing out from the gap between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100 when the booster pump is working. This ensures the normal operation of the booster pump and ensures that the booster pump's pressure boosting effect on the fluid is not affected.
[0054] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the outer wall of the pump body 100 has an annular groove 120, and the sealing ring is embedded in the annular groove 120.
[0055] By adopting the above structure, when the sealing ring is embedded in the annular groove 120, the annular groove 120 can accommodate and fix the sealing ring, making it difficult for the sealing ring to slide off and thus affect the sealing effect.
[0056] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the pump cover 200 has an inlet pipe section 220 and an outlet pipe section 230 that connect the interior and exterior of the pump cover 200. The inlet pipe section 220 is arranged along the axial direction of the pump cover 200, and the outlet pipe section 230 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the pump cover 200.
[0057] Specifically, the inlet pipe section 220 and the outlet pipe section 230 are connected to the booster chamber 300 and the outside of the booster pump. The drive device starts and drives the impeller to rotate at high speed around the axis of the pump cover 200. The booster chamber 300 forms a low-pressure zone and draws in external fluid from the inlet pipe section 220 arranged along the axial direction of the pump cover 200. The impeller continues to rotate at high speed, and the fluid is thrown towards the outlet pipe section 230 arranged circumferentially along the pump cover 200 under the action of centrifugal force and flows out from the outlet pipe section 230.
[0058] By adopting the above structure, the booster pump can efficiently boost the pressure of fluids, and the boosting effect is better.
[0059] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, the inner diameter of the inlet pipe section 220 is larger than the inner diameter of the outlet pipe section 230.
[0060] By adopting the above structure, the larger inner diameter inlet pipe section 220 can ensure that the fluid can flow more smoothly into the booster pump, while the smaller inner diameter outlet pipe section 230 can further increase the pressure of the fluid when it flows out of the booster pump, thus improving the boosting effect.
[0061] Reference Figures 1 to 7 According to a second aspect of the present invention, a booster pump includes a booster pump body, the booster pump body being configured with a booster pump housing assembly as described in the above embodiment.
[0062] The booster pump of this embodiment employs the aforementioned booster pump housing assembly. During assembly, the pump cover 200 is first placed over the pump body 100, and then the pump cover 200 is rotated to engage the first and second snap-fit structures, thus achieving a quick connection between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. During disassembly, the pump cover 200 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the first and second snap-fit structures, thereby achieving a quick separation between the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. Compared to traditional booster pump housing assemblies using bolt connections, the booster pump housing assembly of this embodiment allows for faster connection or separation of the pump cover 200 and the pump body 100. It is simple and convenient to operate, resulting in higher efficiency in the assembly and disassembly of the booster pump. This facilitates better production, assembly, and daily maintenance of the booster pump. Furthermore, the snap-fit assembly has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and has lower processing costs.
[0063] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, the embodiments of the present invention and the features thereof can be combined with each other unless otherwise specified.
