[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] 1. By setting up a reinforcement mechanism, the reinforcement mechanism can provide external limiting force to the support rod to suppress the vibration and alternating stress of the support rod.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment of the present invention, a vertical centrifugal pump with an auxiliary support structure includes a pump casing 1. The base of the pump casing 1 is fixedly connected to the base of the drive motor 10 via a tie rod mechanism. The tie rod mechanism includes four support rods 2 fixedly connected to the four corners of the top of the base of the pump casing 1. Through holes are provided at the four corners of the base of the drive motor 10 for the support rods 2 to pass through. The threaded part at the top of the outer wall of the support rod 2 is threadedly connected to a locking nut 3 for pressing the base of the drive motor 10. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 is coaxially fixedly connected to the impeller inside the pump casing 1. A reinforcing mechanism is installed on the outer wall of the support rod 2.
[0018] In this embodiment: First, when connecting the pump 1 to the drive motor 10, the drive motor 10 is lowered, and the drive motor 10 drives the through hole to align with the four support rods 2 one by one until the base of the drive motor 10 contacts the top of the pump housing 2. Then, the locking nut 3 is threaded onto the upper part of the outer wall of the support rod 2 until it is effectively locked. After that, the reinforcement mechanism is installed on the outer wall of the support rod 2 one by one and locked. The reinforcement mechanism can form an effective external clamping force on the outside of the support rod 2, improve the compressive strength and deformation resistance of the support rod 2, and improve the stability of the support rod 2.
[0019] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The reinforcement mechanism includes two parallel reinforcing plates 4 and two parallel reinforcing plates 8. The reinforcing plates 4 and 8 are perpendicularly distributed, and the bottom end of the reinforcing plate 8 contacts the top end of the reinforcing plate 4. The inner sides of the reinforcing plates 4 and 8 are provided with slots 5 for engaging with the outer wall of the support rod 2. The reinforcement mechanism also includes a connecting rod 6. The inner ends of the reinforcing plates 4 and 8 are provided with insertion holes for the connecting rod 6. The connecting rod 6 is inserted into the insertion holes at the corresponding ends of the two reinforcing plates 4 and 8. The outer wall of the connecting rod 6 is threaded with a connecting nut 7 for pressing the reinforcing plates 4 and 8. The reinforcement mechanism also includes a fixing member 9 welded to the top ends of the reinforcing plate 4. Each fixing member 9 is composed of multiple arc-shaped plates, which are equidistantly distributed in the circumferential direction and have gaps between adjacent arc-shaped plates. The inner side of the reinforcing plate 8 is provided with a circular hole for the fixing member 9 to pass through.
[0020] In this embodiment: When installing the reinforcement mechanism, firstly, the first reinforcing plate 4 located below is placed parallel to the ground, and the slot 5 on the first reinforcing plate 4 is engaged with the outer wall of the support rod 2. Then, two connecting rods 6 are passed through the insertion holes inside the two first reinforcing plates 4. Next, connecting nuts 7 are threaded onto the threaded portions at both ends of the connecting rods 6 and tightened until the two first reinforcing plates 4 are effectively clamped. Then, two second reinforcing plates 8 are placed parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first reinforcing plates 4. The slot 5 on the second reinforcing plates 8 is engaged with the outer wall of the support rod 2 and slid downwards. At this time, the second reinforcing plates 8 move downwards synchronously with their circular holes. During the process, the round hole passes through the outer wall of the fastener 9. Then, the two connecting rods 6 of the beam are passed through the insertion holes inside the second reinforcing plate 8. Then, the connecting nut 7 is threaded onto the threaded part on the outside of the two connecting rods 6 and tightened. Then, the part of the fastener 9 exposed above the second reinforcing plate 8 is hammered with a tool. The hammering causes the exposed part of the fastener 9 to bend and fit against the top of the second reinforcing plate 8, forming an interference fit. This can strengthen the connection stability of the first reinforcing plate 4 and the second reinforcing plate 8, and prevent the reinforcement mechanism from loosening before the maintenance period due to the short-term loosening of the connecting nut 7, thus giving time for maintenance.
[0021] After the reinforcement mechanism is installed, it clamps the support rod externally. The external clamping force can reduce the vibration frequency of the support rod 2, thereby strengthening the support effect.
[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
