Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media conditions, and particularly to a cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media conditions. Background Technology
[0002] The submersible pump is completely submerged in a low-temperature corrosive and conductive medium, and long-distance power and signal cables are in contact with this medium. This prolonged contact leads to the following potential problems:
[0003] 1. Corrosion problem: In low-temperature corrosive conductive media, the metal parts of the cable are prone to chemical reactions and corrosion, which can cause the motor to fail to work;
[0004] 2. Insulation problems: Low-temperature corrosive conductive media entering the cable interior can damage the cable insulation layer, and in severe cases, it can cause a short circuit in the cable.
[0005] 3. Fixed support problem: According to the actual operating conditions of the submersible pump under low temperature corrosive and conductive medium conditions, the pump is installed at the bottom of the pump well. The power and signal transmission between the pump head and the external environment must be transmitted through tens of meters of cable. The cable is unsupported for a long time, which leads to a reduction in its lifespan or even damage.
[0006] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned existing technologies, it is necessary to study and design a new type of cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media conditions, so as to overcome the problems existing in the existing technologies. Summary of the Invention
[0007] To address the technical problems mentioned above, such as cables being prone to corrosion due to chemical reactions with conductive media, short circuits caused by conductive media entering the cable interior, and reduced cable lifespan due to prolonged lack of support, this invention provides a cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media conditions. This invention primarily uses a corrugated metal flexible hose for sealing, achieving isolation from the medium and preventing corrosion. Simultaneously, the corrugated metal flexible hose and cable are individually fixed and supported section by section to prevent prolonged lack of support, which could reduce their lifespan or even cause damage.
[0008] The technical means adopted in this utility model are as follows:
[0009] A cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media includes: a top plate component, a pump well, an instrument corrugated metal hose, an electrical corrugated metal hose, a cable fixing support, a pump head support wire rope, a power cable, and an instrument cable;
[0010] Furthermore, the instrument cables and power cables inside the pump well are respectively fitted with instrument corrugated metal hoses and electrical corrugated metal hoses.
[0011] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the instrument cable are connected to the cables on the external instrument and the internal instrument of the pump head via connecting cables, respectively.
[0012] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the power cable are connected to the cables on the external power equipment and the cables on the internal power structure of the pump head via connecting cables, respectively.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the instrument corrugated metal hose and the electrical corrugated metal hose are respectively connected to the flange of the top plate component at the top of the pump well and the flange on the pump head.
[0014] The instrument corrugated metal hose and the electrical corrugated metal hose are fixed by cable fixing support, and then the whole assembly is fixed to the pump head support wire rope.
[0015] Furthermore, the instrument's corrugated metal flexible hose is also fitted with a cable support wire rope;
[0016] Furthermore, the bottom end of the cable support wire rope is connected to the pump head, and the top end is suspended on the lifting ring at the lower end of the instrument blind flange at the instrument flange opening on the top plate component by fasteners, so as to avoid the instrument cable being under stress for a long time and affecting its service life.
[0017] Furthermore, a metal spiral wound gasket is used to seal the connection between the instrument blind flange and the instrument flange opening.
[0018] Furthermore, the power cable support cable is suspended on the lower end of the electrical blind flange at the electrical flange opening on the top plate component by fasteners, so as to avoid the power cable being under stress for a long time and affecting its service life.
[0019] Furthermore, a metal spiral wound gasket is used to seal the electrical blind flange and the electrical flange opening.
[0020] Furthermore, the flange opening of the instrument corrugated metal hose and the connection port of the top plate component are sealed with a first sealing ring, a second sealing ring and a sealing gasket to ensure its airtightness.
[0021] Furthermore, the connection between the flange opening of the electrical corrugated metal flexible hose and the top plate component is achieved through multiple sealing methods, including a first sealing ring, a second sealing ring, and a gasket, to ensure its airtightness.
[0022] Furthermore, the flange of the instrument corrugated metal hose and the flange of the pump head flange are sealed with a first sealing ring, a second sealing ring and a sealing gasket to ensure its sealing performance.
[0023] Furthermore, the flange of the electrical corrugated metal hose and the flange of the pump head flange are sealed with a first sealing ring, a second sealing ring and a gasket to ensure its sealing performance.
[0024] Furthermore, the instrument corrugated metal hose and the electrical corrugated metal hose are fixed with cable fixing support every 3m or so, and then the whole assembly is fixed to the pump head support wire rope.
[0025] Furthermore, a guide assembly is installed on the cable fixing support, and the pulleys at both ends of the guide assembly abut against the inner wall of the pump well.
[0026] The pump well in this case contains a corrosive and conductive medium. To prevent the medium from leaking into the corrugated metal hose, in addition to the mechanical static seal, the sealing cavity must be filled with nitrogen gas at a pressure higher than that of the medium inside the pump well. At the same time, the pressure is monitored in real time so that any leakage can be dealt with promptly.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0028] 1. The low-temperature corrosive medium working condition cable protection structure provided by this utility model installs power and instrument cables in a corrugated metal hose. The flange faces on both sides of the hose are sealed with adjacent parts by double-layer sealing rings and sealing gaskets to achieve isolation from the medium and prevent low-temperature corrosive conductive media from entering the hose and causing corrosion and a decrease in insulation performance.
[0029] 2. The low-temperature corrosive medium working condition cable protection structure provided by this utility model has the cable and corrugated metal hose installed vertically inside the pump well. The instrument cable is fixed and supported by steel wire rope and finally suspended at the instrument blind flange on the top plate. The power cable is fixed and supported by grounding cable and finally suspended at the electrical blind flange on the top plate. This avoids the cable and hose being subjected to stress for a long time, which would reduce their lifespan or even damage them.
[0030] 3. The cable protection structure for low-temperature corrosive media provided by this utility model, with matching guide components, restricts the radial displacement of the cable assembly as a whole, reduces swaying and collision, and extends its service life.
[0031] In summary, the technical solution of this utility model solves the problems in the prior art, such as cables being prone to corrosion due to chemical reactions with conductive media, short circuits caused by conductive media entering the cable interior damaging the insulation layer, and reduced lifespan due to long-term lack of support.
