[0002] Although ceramic impellers have strong wear resistance, they are easily broken under the high torque conditions of sudden stop and start. In order for ceramic impellers to be used in this condition, it is imperative to strengthen the structural support. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention discloses a silicon nitride ceramic impeller frame fixing structure, breaking through the limitations of the original sintered ceramic impeller frame and overcoming the challenges posed to ceramic products under high torque conditions, thus greatly improving the adaptability of the new ceramic impeller to extreme conditions.

[0004] A silicon nitride ceramic impeller frame fixing structure includes an upper impeller frame body and a lower impeller frame body; wherein a plurality of positioning grooves are evenly arranged on the surface of the lower impeller frame body; the bottom of the silicon nitride ceramic impeller fits into the positioning grooves; wherein the upper impeller frame body and the lower impeller frame body are fixed together by welding.

[0005] Furthermore, a silicon nitride ceramic front cover plate is installed on the top of the upper impeller frame body to block the metal frame from contacting the corrosive medium.

[0006] Furthermore, a silicon nitride ceramic back cover plate is installed on the top of the lower impeller frame body.

[0007] Furthermore, both the upper impeller frame and the lower impeller frame are made of stainless steel.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of positioning slots is five.

[0009] This utility model breaks away from the conventional one-piece impeller frame body structure, splitting it into upper and lower sections, and adding a silicon nitride ceramic front cover plate.

[0010] During processing, the bottom of the silicon nitride ceramic impeller is first engaged and positioned with the positioning groove on the lower impeller frame body. Then, the upper impeller frame body and the lower impeller frame body are welded together. Finally, the silicon nitride ceramic front cover plate and the silicon nitride ceramic rear cover plate are installed respectively.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: It breaks away from the conventional one-piece impeller frame structure, splitting it into upper and lower sections, and adding a silicon nitride ceramic front cover plate, which solves the limitations of the original impeller frame, overcomes the challenges of ceramic products under high torque conditions, and greatly improves the adaptability of the new ceramic impeller to extreme working conditions.

[0018] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0019] The silicon nitride ceramic impeller frame structure includes an upper impeller frame body 1 and a lower impeller frame body 2; wherein a plurality of positioning grooves 3 are evenly arranged on the surface of the lower impeller frame body 2; the bottom of the silicon nitride ceramic impeller 4 is fitted with the positioning grooves 3; wherein the upper impeller frame body 1 and the lower impeller frame body 2 are fixed together by welding.

[0020] The top of the upper impeller frame body 1 is equipped with a silicon nitride ceramic front cover plate 5; the top of the lower impeller frame body 1 is equipped with a silicon nitride ceramic rear cover plate 6.

[0021] Both the upper impeller frame body 1 and the lower impeller frame body 2 are made of stainless steel, which increases the strength of the structure.
