Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of high-speed centrifugal blower cooling technology, and particularly relates to a dual-pump lubrication and cooling system for a single-stage centrifugal blower. Background Technology

[0002] High-speed centrifugal blowers consist of a permanent magnet synchronous motor, a gearbox, and pneumatic components. They are widely used in wastewater treatment, cement, and paper industries due to their high operating speed, high overall efficiency, compact structure, and high power density. The blower's lubrication system reduces bearing friction, removes frictional heat, and reduces wear, which is crucial for the blower's long-term safe operation. Currently, single-stage high-speed centrifugal blowers typically rely on a dual-pump system: a gear pump and an electric pump. The gear pump is the main pump, with its low-speed shaft and coupling external to the gearbox. The electric pump is the auxiliary pump, located on an oil tank base, and its rotation drives the low-speed shaft of the gear pump to circulate the oil. After exiting the gearbox, the lubricating oil enters the radiator. The cooled lubricating oil then returns to the gearbox through a high-precision oil filter to lubricate and cool the bearings.

[0003] Existing single-stage centrifugal blowers typically have gear pumps externally mounted outside the gearbox, operating by a motor driving the gear shaft. This requires an additional low-speed gear pump shaft on top of the input and output shaft transmissions, necessitating lubrication and cooling of this shaft, increasing manufacturing costs and creating a risk of oil leaks at various connections. Furthermore, gear pump installation is complex, hindering maintenance and repair, and the intricate oil piping affects the overall aesthetics of the machine. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

However, it should be noted that many details listed in the specification are merely to provide the reader with a thorough understanding of one or more aspects of this utility model, and these aspects can be achieved even without these specific details.

[0019] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to this utility model, a dual-pump lubrication and cooling system for a single-stage centrifugal blower includes a gear pump 2, an electric pump 3, a radiator 6, and an oil tank base 5 for supporting and mounting a permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 and a gearbox 8. The permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 and the gearbox 8 are respectively mounted on the two end surfaces of the oil tank base 5. The drive output shaft of the gear pump 2 is connected to the tail interface of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1. The electric pump 3 is externally mounted to the tail of the oil tank base 5 via an electric pump mounting bracket 4, thereby optimizing the overall oil pipe layout. The gear pump and electric pump are mounted at the tail of the motor, facilitating the layout of the oil pipes and maintenance. The radiator 6 is located on the side of the oil tank base 5. The first oil outlet of the oil tank base 5 is connected to the inlet end of the gear pump 2 via the first oil suction pipe 20. The second oil outlet of the oil tank base 5 is connected to the inlet end of the electric pump 3 via the second oil suction pipe 30. The outlet end of the gear pump 2 is connected to the inlet end of the radiator 6. The outlet end of the radiator 6 is connected to the cooling oil inlet of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 via the cooling oil supply pipe 60. The cooling oil outlet of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 is connected to the inlet end of the gear speed increaser 8 via the lubrication cooling pipe 80. The oil outlet of the gear speed increaser 8 is connected to the return oil outlet of the oil tank base 5.

[0020] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an oil filter 9 is installed on the lubrication and cooling pipe 80 between the cooling oil outlet of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 and the inlet end of the gear speed increaser 8. The lubricating oil from the cooling oil outlet of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 is filtered through the lubrication and cooling pipe 80 and the oil filter 9 before being sent into the gear speed increaser 8. An oil passage block 7 is installed on the side near the inlet end of the radiator 6. The outlet end of the gear pump 2 is connected to the first inlet end of the oil passage block 7 through the first branch oil pipe 21. The outlet oil end of the electric pump 3 is connected to the second inlet end of the oil passage block 7 through the second branch oil pipe 31. The outlet end of the oil passage block 7 is connected to the inlet end of the radiator 6 through the oil collection pipe 22. The outer walls of the first branch oil pipe 21 and the second branch oil pipe 31 are respectively fixed to the side wall of the oil tank base 5 by corresponding oil pipe clamps 13. A gear pump mounting base 11 is installed between the gear pump adapter shaft 10 and the coupling 12. In the cooling and lubrication system of this utility model, the gear pump 2 is directly driven by the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1, which does not require additional lubricating oil for cooling and lubrication, reduces lubricating oil consumption, lowers the risk of oil leakage at various connections, eliminates the design of the low-speed shaft of the gear pump, eliminates the need for gear transmission, makes the structure simpler, and reduces manufacturing costs.

[0021] In this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A sealing end cap 101 is provided at the tail end of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 to seal the tail interface 100, thereby sealing the tail interface 100 (output shaft) of the magnetic synchronous motor 1 and preventing oil contamination of the output shaft of the motor 1. A gear pump mounting base 11 is provided on the sealing end cap 100, and the outer wall of the gear pump 2 on the drive output shaft side is connected to the gear pump mounting base 11. A gear pump adapter shaft 10 and a coupling 12 are sequentially arranged on the tail interface 100 of the magnetic synchronous motor 1 along the axial direction and sleeved in the gear pump mounting base 11. The gear pump mounting base 11 covers the sealing tail interface 100, the gear pump adapter shaft 10 and the coupling 12, making them in a sealed space to prevent external oil contamination. To prevent contamination, the tail interface 100 of the magnetic synchronous motor 1 is connected to the drive output shaft of the gear pump 2 via the gear pump adapter shaft 10 and coupling 12. An oil baffle 110 is provided on the inner wall of the gear pump mounting base 11, near the tail interface 100 of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1, and surrounds the circumference of the gear pump adapter shaft 10. This achieves the purpose of the oil baffle 110 isolating the coupling 12 from the tail interface 100. When the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 is started, its tail interface (output shaft) rotates accordingly, thereby driving the output shaft of the gear pump 2 to rotate together through the drive gear pump adapter shaft 10 and coupling 12, so that the gear pump 2 can operate and deliver the lubricating oil passing through the gear pump 2 to the oil passage collection block 7.

[0022] In this utility model, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2The permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 and the gear speed increaser 8 are mounted on the oil tank base 5; the gear pump 2 is mounted on the tail interface of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 via the gear pump adapter shaft 10, the gear pump mounting base 11, and the coupling 12; the electric pump 3 is mounted externally on the tail of the oil tank base 5 via the electric pump mounting bracket 4; lubricating oil flows from the oil tank base 5 into the gear pump 2 and the electric pump 3 through the first oil suction pipe 20 and the second oil suction pipe 30 respectively, and then exits from the gear pump 2 and the electric pump 3, and is delivered to the oil passage manifold 7 through the first branch oil pipe 21 and the second branch oil pipe 31 respectively. The first branch oil pipe 21 and the second branch oil pipe 31 are connected by the oil pipe clamp 13 respectively. Fixed to the side of the oil tank base 5; the oil collected by the oil collection block 7 is connected to the water-cooled radiator 6 through the oil collection pipe 22 to complete the cooling of the lubricating oil. The lubricating oil is then transported from the outlet end of the water-cooled radiator 6 to the heat dissipation housing of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 through the cooling oil supply pipe 60 to cool the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1. After the lubricating oil completes the heat dissipation and cooling of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1, it flows out of the permanent magnet synchronous motor 1 and is transported to the lubricating oil filter 9 through the lubrication cooling pipe 80 for filtration. The filtered lubricating oil finally flows back to the gear speed increaser 8 through the return pipe to cool and lubricate the internal bearings and other parts. After cooling and lubrication, the lubricating oil returns to the oil tank base 5 to complete the oil circuit circulation.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
