Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a plunger pump for pipetting, and more particularly to a plunger pump with a cleaning structure. Background Technology

[0002] A plunger pump is a high-precision, high-reliability liquid transfer device used in pipetting technology, widely applied in fields such as biomedicine, chemical analysis, and molecular biology. Its core components include a precision-machined plunger (piston), pump body, drive mechanism, and sealing system. Driven by a motor or mechanical device, the plunger reciprocates within the pump chamber: when the plunger retracts, a negative pressure is created, drawing liquid into the chamber; when the plunger advances, a positive pressure is generated, achieving precise liquid discharge.

[0003] In existing technologies, plunger pumps use a motor and lead screw mechanism to directly drive the piston, enabling it to perform high-precision linear reciprocating motion within a sealed cavity. A dynamically sealed structure is formed between the cavity and the piston through a precisely matched sealing ring, ensuring no liquid leakage during operation. However, when the pumped liquid contains particulate impurities (such as unfiltered suspended solids) or hard crystals formed after the drying of volatile solvents (such as salt deposits or organic solute sediments), these impurities will cut into the sealing interface as the piston moves, causing scratches or even tears to the sealing ring. The resulting leakage will first corrode internal metal components of the pump (such as stainless steel plungers and aluminum cavities) and transmission components, reducing mechanical lifespan. If the leaking liquid is conductive (such as acid / alkali solutions or ion buffer solutions), it may enter the motor unit's trigger circuit along the lead screw, causing a short circuit. In extreme cases, this could lead to electrical sparks or equipment fires, resulting in experimental interruptions or escalating safety risks. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] Example

[0032] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a plunger pump with a cleaning structure, including a power unit 1, a housing 2, a plunger, a cavity-shaped end cap 5, and a sandwich structure 7 (i.e., a double-layer sealing ring sandwich structure), wherein the power unit 1 is connected to the housing 2 and forms a first cavity 21;

[0033] The plunger part includes a first plunger part 4 and a second plunger part 41, wherein the second plunger part 41 can penetrate the second cavity 22 on the housing part 2, and there is a partition between the second cavity 22 and the first cavity 21 to ensure the sealing effect between the cavities.

[0034] The second cavity 22 has a sandwich structure 7 inside, wherein the sandwich structure 7 has a receiving part 73 that communicates with the outside.

[0035] Specifically, the receiving part 73 has at least two connecting holes 74, wherein the connecting holes 74 connect the receiving part 73 with the connecting hole 231. More specifically, the connecting hole 231 is provided inside the housing part 2, wherein at least two are provided, corresponding to the connecting holes 74. The end of the connecting hole 231 is an opening 23 provided on the housing part 2. The two openings 23 and the connecting hole 231 are used to connect an external circulation pump. When external components such as peristaltic pumps continuously introduce and collect fluid to circulate in the receiving part 73, the impurities are cleaned, and the damage to the structure by hard crystals is avoided.

[0036] The sandwich structure 7 is also provided with a first sealing part 71 and a second sealing part 72. The first sealing part 71 is provided in the upper part of the sandwich structure 7, and the second sealing part 72 is provided in the lower part of the sandwich structure 7. Since the second plunger part 41 is continuously cleaned when it passes through the receiving part 73, it avoids impurities from damaging the sealing parts when it passes through the first sealing part 71 and the second sealing part 72.

[0037] A cavity-shaped end cap 5 is installed at the end of the housing part 2, and a control valve 6 may also be connected to the cavity-shaped end cap 5. The lead screw 11 at the end of the power part 1 is connected to the first plunger part 4 through the connecting part 3.

[0038] Specifically, this utility model provides a receiving part 73 within the sandwich structure 7, and introduces fluid from the outside for circulation through the connecting hole 231 and the communicating hole 74. This effectively removes impurities from the plunger during operation, achieving effective cleaning and avoiding risks such as damage to the sealing ring and safety hazards. It also improves the service life of the plunger pump and reduces damage to the plunger pump or equipment caused by leakage.

[0039] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
