Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of buffer, in particular to a high-pressure elastic block buffer. BACKGROUND

[0002] The volumetric pump is a pump for transporting liquid by using the change of the volume in the pump cylinder. The instantaneous flow of the volumetric pump is usually pulsating during the operation, which causes the instability of the output hydraulic pressure in the pipeline. The buffer is a commonly used device for eliminating the liquid force pipeline pulsation. Its main function is to smooth the liquid force pulsation and reduce the pipeline vibration to protect the pipeline instruments and devices. The existing structure of the high-pressure buffer has the following disadvantages: the capsule cannot be well supported in the absence of liquid, the capsule in the head is in a fully stretched state, the internal deformation is large, and the capsule life is low when it is often in the maximum deformation state; at the same time, under the alternating pressure change of the working pump, the shape of the capsule pulsates greatly, which further affects the service life.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN206439181U discloses a liquid high-pressure buffer. The liquid high-pressure buffer is directly removed as a whole by connecting the flange plate of the outlet flange and the pipeline, without discharging the gas in the capsule. After the maintenance is completed, the liquid high-pressure buffer can be installed and used continuously, which is convenient to use. The lower head is in the shape of a semi-elliptical body with a smaller radius in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction. When the working pump is stopped, the deformation degree of the capsule is small. The liquid inlet and outlet of the lower head are provided with a splash plate, which increases the contact surface of the capsule and the lower part of the liquid high-pressure buffer, reduces stress concentration, improves the working environment of the capsule, and prolongs the service life of the capsule. However, the device still has many deficiencies.

[0004] During use, the capsule is prone to fatigue and instability under long-term high-pressure environment, which shortens the service life of the capsule and requires regular maintenance or replacement. SUMMARY

[0016] (Three) beneficial effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a high-pressure elastic block buffer, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This high-pressure elastic block buffer is provided by connecting a pump inlet pipe and a pump outlet pipe to both ends of a volumetric pump. External liquid is pumped into the volumetric pump through the pump inlet pipe and then flows out through the pump outlet pipe. A buffer is vertically installed above the pump outlet pipe. An elastic damping block is installed inside the buffer's shell and housing. An interface is provided at the bottom of the shell, which is connected to the pump outlet pipe. Water inside the pump outlet pipe flows into the buffer through the interface. When the elastic damping block inside the buffer is impacted by the fluid at the interface, it can eliminate some of the liquid pulsation, thereby protecting the stability of the buffer and the pipeline.

This further reduces the compression of the elastic damping block by the fluid, thus extending the service life of the elastic damping block. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] This embodiment provides a high-voltage elastic block buffer, which has the following technical features.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-5 A high-pressure elastic block buffer includes a volumetric pump 100 and a buffer 200. The two ends of the volumetric pump 100 are respectively fixedly connected to a pump inlet pipe 110 and a pump outlet pipe 120. The buffer 200 is connected to the pump outlet pipe 120. The buffer 200 includes a cover 210 and a housing 220. An interface 221 is provided on the lower surface of the housing 220. The buffer 200 is connected to the pump outlet pipe 120 through the interface 221. An elastic damping block 230 is provided inside the housing 220. The elastic damping block 230 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the housing 220. A support ring 240 is provided inside the cover 210. One end of the support ring 240 is tightly fitted to the elastic damping block 230. The support ring 240, the cover 210 and the housing 220 are tightly connected. A pressure relief hole 211 is provided on the top of the cover 210.

[0034] Furthermore, the outer side of the cover 210 is provided with a first hanging ear 212, the outer periphery of the housing 220 is provided with a second hanging ear 222, the outer side of the support ring 240 is provided between the first hanging ear 212 and the second hanging ear 222, and a through mounting hole 250 is provided on the side where the first hanging ear 212, the second hanging ear 222 and the support ring 240 fit together, and a detachable bolt 260 is provided inside the mounting hole 250.

[0035] Furthermore, the elastic damping block 230 includes an upper cylinder 231 and a lower cylinder 232. An air chamber 233 is formed between the upper cylinder 231 and the inner wall of the cover 210, and a buffer cavity 234 is formed between the lower cylinder 232 and the inner wall of the housing 220. The diameter of the upper cylinder 231 is smaller than the diameter of the lower cylinder 232. An annular sealing ring 235 is provided on the outer side where the upper cylinder 231 and the lower cylinder 232 connect. The annular sealing ring 235 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the housing 220.

[0036] It should be noted that the elastic damping block 230 is made of rubber with a thick stepped cylindrical shape and appropriate hardness.

[0037] Furthermore, the top of the elastic damping block 230 is provided with a countersunk hole 236, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the pressure relief hole 211.

[0038] It should be noted that the ratio of the diameter of the countersunk hole 236 to the diameter of the upper cylinder 231 is 0.2-0.25, and the ratio of the diameter of the upper cylinder 231 to the diameter of the lower cylinder 232 is 0.7-0.72. The buffering effect is optimal under these conditions. The countersunk hole 236 can improve the elasticity of the elastic damping block 230.

[0039] Furthermore, one end of the support ring 240 is positioned in close contact with the upper surface of the annular sealing ring 235.

[0040] Furthermore, a flow guiding mechanism 270 is provided at the bottom of the housing 220. The mounting plate 271 of the flow guiding mechanism 270 is located inside the buffer cavity 234. A rotatable rotating shaft 272 is mounted on the mounting plate 271. A turbulence-disrupting blade 273 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 272. The turbulence-disrupting blade 273 is located inside the interface 221.

[0041] Furthermore, a corrugated hose 130 may be provided at the interface 221 of the buffer 200, which is vertically connected to the pump discharge pipe 120.

[0042] Furthermore, a limiting groove 223 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 220, and a limiting block 237 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the elastic damping block 230, with the limiting block 237 sliding inside the limiting groove 223.

[0043] Working principle: The two ends of the positive displacement pump 100 are fixedly connected to the pump inlet pipe 110 and the pump outlet pipe 120, respectively. After the fluid passes through the pump inlet pipe 110, it can flow into the interior of the positive displacement pump 100 and then into the interior of the pump outlet pipe 120. A buffer 200 is vertically arranged above the pump outlet pipe 120. The buffer 200 includes a cover 210 and a housing 220. The bottom of the housing 220 has an interface 221. The interface 221, through the corrugated hose 130, can fix the housing 220 above the pump outlet pipe 120. An elastic damping block 230 is arranged inside the housing 220 and the cover 210. The elastic damping block 230 consists of an upper cylinder 231, a lower cylinder 232, and an annular sealing ring 235. The upper cylinder 231 is disposed inside the cover 210 and forms an air chamber 233 between itself and the inner wall of the cover 210. The lower cylinder 232 is disposed inside the housing 220 and forms a buffer cavity 234 between itself and the inner wall of the housing 220. An annular sealing ring 235 is provided between the upper cylinder 231 and the lower cylinder 232. The lower surface of the annular sealing ring 235 is tightly fitted with the surface of the second lug 222 on the housing 220, which ensures the airtightness of the buffer cavity 234. A support ring 240 is provided on the lower surface of the first lug 212 on the cover 210. The lower surface of the support ring 240 is tightly fitted with the annular sealing ring 235. The first lug 212, the second lug 222, and the support ring 240 form a buffer cavity 234. A through mounting hole 250 is provided at the overlapping position of the rings 240. A removable bolt 260 is provided inside the mounting hole 250. The bottom of the bolt 260 is fixed by a washer and a nut, which ensures that the cover 210, the housing 220 and the support ring 240 can be fixed together. The support ring 240 forms an air chamber 233 between the upper cylinder 231 and the inner wall of the cover 210. The support ring 240 contacts the elastic damping block 230, thereby increasing the pressure bearing capacity of the elastic damping block 230. The support ring 240 also ensures good sealing between the lower cylinder 232 and the inner wall of the housing 220, so that the elastic damping block 230 can withstand the pulse of the fluid inside the pump discharge pipe 120. When the fluid flows, it can perform a high-suction, low-throw motion, thus smoothing the fluid inside the pump discharge pipe 120. Simultaneously, a flow guiding mechanism 270 is provided at the interface 221 of the housing 220. The mounting plate 271 of the flow guiding mechanism 270 is detachably fixed inside the housing 220 and is located on the side near the interface 221. A rotatable rotating shaft 272 is positioned at the upper limit of the mounting plate 271. A baffle vane 273 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating shaft 272 near the interface 221. Thus, when the fluid flows inside the pump discharge pipe 120, at the peak of the discharge fluid pulsation, a portion of the fluid flows through the interface 221 into the buffer 200. At this time, because the direction of the baffle vane 273 is matched with the fluid flow direction, it effectively prevents this.In this way, the fluid flowing over the baffle blades 273 can convert some of its potential energy into the kinetic energy of the rotating shaft 272 and the baffle blades 273. This reduces the impact of vibrations generated during peak fluid pulsations on the pipe and buffer 200, thereby protecting the pipe and buffer 200 and extending the service life of the elastic damping block 230. Furthermore, a limiting groove 223 is formed on the inner wall of the housing 220, and a limiting block 237 is fixedly installed on the elastic damping block 230 at the corresponding position. The limiting block 237 slides inside the limiting groove 223, allowing the fluid flowing into the buffer cavity 234 to... When the fluid flow is at its lowest point, the internal pressure of the buffer chamber 234 increases, compressing the elastic damping block 230. This causes the elastic damping block 230 to push upwards, drawing in the peak flow rate. The limiting block 237 and the limiting groove 223 ensure that the elastic damping block 230 can deform vertically, reducing the risk of unnecessary collisions. When the fluid pulsation is at its lowest point, the internal pressure of the buffer chamber 234 decreases, causing the elastic damping block 230 to expand, reducing the volume of the buffer chamber 234, and resetting the elastic damping block 230. This results in a smoother flow of fluid inside the pump discharge pipe 120.

[0044] In summary, this high-pressure elastic block buffer, through the connection of a pump inlet pipe 110 and a pump outlet pipe 120 at both ends of a volumetric pump 100, allows external liquid to be pumped into the volumetric pump 100 through the pump inlet pipe 110 and then out through the pump outlet pipe 120. A buffer 200 is vertically installed above the pump outlet pipe 120. An elastic damping block 230 is installed inside the cover 210 and the housing 220 of the buffer 200. An interface 221 is provided at the bottom of the housing 220, which is connected to the pump outlet pipe 120. The water inside the pump outlet pipe 120 flows into the buffer 200 along the interface 221. When the elastic damping block 230 inside the buffer 200 is impacted by the fluid at the interface 221, it can eliminate part of the liquid pulsation, thereby protecting the stability of the buffer 200 and the pipeline.

[0045] This high-pressure elastic block buffer has a flow guiding mechanism 270 installed inside the buffer cavity 234 inside the buffer 200. The mounting plate 271 of the flow guiding mechanism 270 is detachably fixed in the lower cylinder 232. A rotatable rotating shaft 272 is installed on the mounting plate 271. Multiple turbulence blades 273 are fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 272. The bottom of the blades is in contact with the pump discharge pipe 120. When the fluid inside the pump discharge pipe 120 pulsates, the peak of the liquid can enter the turbulence blades 273, thereby converting the potential energy of the fluid into the kinetic energy of the turbulence blades 273 and the rotating shaft 272. This can further reduce the compression of the elastic damping block 230 by the fluid, and thus extend the service life of the elastic damping block 230.
