Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water conservancy engineering technology, and more specifically, it is a submersible axial flow pump with fully adjustable blades for vertical shafts. Background Technology
[0002] Horizontal submersible axial flow pumps are integrated pump sets used in hydraulic engineering. Currently, the blades of submersible axial flow pumps cannot be dynamically adjusted, meaning the blades are either not adjusted or partially adjusted after shutdown. As the power, flow rate, and head of submersible pumps tend to be larger, the scale of individual submersible axial flow pumps is also increasing. With larger pumps, the requirements for stability and flow rate matching under different operating conditions are higher. Dynamic blade adjustment technology is an important control method to improve operating conditions. On the other hand, some riverside key pumping stations have small heads and large flow rates, and most operate in both directions. In recent years, domestic scholars have studied the hydraulic performance of "S"-shaped blades and their compatibility with bidirectional horizontal submersible axial flow pumps. While pumps meet basic engineering requirements, the actual operating head varies significantly under different bidirectional operating conditions. Dynamic blade adjustment technology is an important control method that balances bidirectional hydraulic performance. Due to the limitations of the motor structure at the drive end, the blades of currently used horizontal submersible axial flow pumps are generally fixed, making it impossible to adjust the blade angle according to usage needs. Consequently, it is not convenient to adjust the flow rate by different blade angles, resulting in poor performance in the large-scale and bidirectional operation of submersible axial flow pumps. Furthermore, domestic scholars have conducted extensive research on the selection of hydraulic models for conventional large and medium-sized pumps, but these studies on hydraulic model selection and equipment are all based on existing mature pump section hydraulic models.
[0003] Currently, submersible axial flow pumps all adopt a unique diffuser-type guide vane structure, and there has been no attempt to directly apply the excellent hydraulic models of existing large and medium-sized water pumps to submersible axial flow pumps.
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the problems in the development of horizontal submersible axial flow pumps towards large and medium-sized models, as well as the flow state, structure and performance issues in bidirectional applications, it is necessary to develop a submersible axial flow pump with fully adjustable blades in vertical shafts that can directly utilize the excellent conventional pump section hydraulic model that has been verified and recognized, and realize the dynamic operation of the submersible axial flow pump with fully adjustable blades. Utility Model Content
[0005] Currently, there is limited research on large submersible axial flow pumps with high power and high flow rate; bidirectional pumps are rare, and fully adjustable pumps are almost nonexistent. With social progress and economic development, various sectors of the national economy have placed urgent demands on the power, flow rate, head, and bidirectional operation of submersible axial flow pumps. Due to limitations in cavitation performance (nD value), the pump speed decreases when submersible pumps are enlarged, resulting in a larger direct-drive motor. Even with a planetary gear reducer, the conventional motor remains bulky, which can affect the internal flow pattern of the pump unit, reduce operating efficiency, and even increase vibration, leading to destructive effects. Horizontal submersible axial flow pumps are further constrained by the motor structure at the drive end, making it difficult to install a blade adjustment mechanism.
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned background technology and to provide a submersible axial flow pump with fully adjustable flow vanes in a vertical shaft.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a submersible axial flow pump with fully adjustable blades for vertical shaft flow, comprising a submersible axial flow pump, characterized in that: the left end of the submersible axial flow pump is connected to a round-square gradient flow channel via a left end expansion joint, and the right end is connected to a vertical shaft flow channel via a right end expansion joint; a vertical shaft is provided inside the vertical shaft flow channel;
[0008] The submersible axial flow pump is equipped with an asynchronous submersible motor, a planetary gearbox, a thrust bearing box, a pump section hydraulic model, and a hollow adjusting shaft, arranged sequentially from left to right. The right end of the hollow adjusting shaft extends into the vertical shaft and is connected to the built-in synchronous hydraulic adjusting mechanism. The hollow adjusting shaft and the asynchronous submersible motor drive shaft are arranged at opposite ends.
[0009] In the above technical solution, a main shaft seal is provided at the connection between the hollow adjusting shaft and the vertical shaft, and a water guide bearing box is provided between the main shaft seal and the built-in synchronous hydraulic adjusting mechanism of the hollow adjusting shaft.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the structure of the pump section hydraulic model no longer sets diffuser-type guide vanes in the diffuser section between the asynchronous submersible motor and the fully adjustable impeller. The pump section hydraulic model adopts an excellent conventional pump section hydraulic model that has been tested and recognized. The pump section hydraulic model includes a fully adjustable impeller and guide vanes. The fully adjustable impeller is arranged on the side closer to the asynchronous submersible motor, and the guide vanes are arranged on the side closer to the vertical shaft flow channel.
[0011] In the above technical solution, the built-in synchronous hydraulic adjustment mechanism is arranged horizontally. The built-in synchronous hydraulic adjustment mechanism includes a hydraulic adjustment machine and an adjustment rod. The hydraulic adjustment machine and the adjustment rod rotate synchronously with the full adjustment impeller.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0013] 1) This utility model utilizes a vertical shaft in the vertical flow channel to separate the drive shaft of the asynchronous submersible motor and the hollow adjustment shaft of the blades into two separate arrangements, forming a new horizontal submersible axial flow pump unit structure. This structure no longer sets diffuser-type guide vanes in the diffuser section between the motor and the impeller, and can directly utilize the hydraulic model of excellent conventional pump sections that have been tested and recognized, such as the South-to-North Water Diversion series. At the same time, it realizes the dynamic operation and full adjustment of the blades of the submersible axial flow pump. Attached Figure Description
