[0035] Fluid system: A closed-loop pipeline is formed between the pump body, paint bucket 10, and spray gun.

[0036] Example:

[0037] I. Drive System Assembly

[0038] The pinion 101 of the servo motor 1 meshes with the planetary gear 202;

[0039] The planetary carrier 201 is fixed to the motor base 102 by bearings.

[0040] II. Transmission System Connection

[0041] The milled flat end of drive shaft 3 is pressed into the keyway of planetary carrier;

[0042] After the cam is fitted with a ball bearing, it mates with the inner hole of connecting rod 4.

[0043] III. Pump Body Seal Assembly

[0044] After the plunger 5 is inserted into the sealing sleeve 501, it is pressed into the vacuum chamber;

[0045] Install the inner and outer O-rings in sequence to form a triple seal.

[0046] IV. Valve Installation

[0047] The discharge valve assembly 7 and the return valve assembly 8 are respectively threaded to the corresponding interfaces on the pump body;

[0048] When the sealing rod 901 of the closed switch 9 is aligned with the pressure chamber, overpressure power-off protection is achieved.

[0049] V. Working Principle

[0050] Start-up phase: The motor drives the planetary gear set to reduce the speed and increase the torque;

[0051] The drive shaft drives the cam to rotate, which in turn pushes the connecting rod to perform horizontal reciprocating motion.

[0052] Paint delivery: The plunger creates negative pressure in the vacuum chamber, and the paint is drawn in from the inlet 601;

[0053] After being pressurized by the discharge valve 7, it is ejected from the nozzle.

[0054] Pressure protection: When the system pressure exceeds the set value, closing switch 9 triggers power cut-off;

[0055] The backflow valve 8 prevents paint from flowing back when the machine is stopped, thus protecting the pump body.

[0056] As a further explanation of this utility model, the ring gear 203 of the planetary gear assembly 2 is an internal ring gear, and the planetary gear 202 meshes with both the motor pinion 101 and the ring gear. The planetary carrier 201 is fixed to the motor base 102 by bearings. This structure enables high torque output, improves the stability of the entire device during use, and is suitable for conveying high-viscosity coatings.

[0057] As a further explanation of this utility model, the U-shaped opening end of the connecting rod 4 is provided with a through hole running vertically through it, and a built-in bearing is used to fix the fixing pin 401. The upper end of the fixing pin is provided with a retaining spring groove to achieve axial positioning. The above structure can ensure the stability of the connecting rod structure and prevent loosening during high-speed reciprocating motion.

[0058] As a further explanation of this utility model, the sealing sleeve is coaxially assembled with the vacuum chamber for compression, and its outer circumference has two grooves for installing O-rings. A third O-ring is added at the internal connection to form a triple sealing structure. The above structure adopts a triple sealing structure, which can increase the sealing performance of the entire device and prevent paint leakage from contaminating the equipment.

[0059] As a further explanation of this utility model, the backflow valve assembly 8 includes a first valve ball 801, a valve seat, a spring, a valve stem, and a valve body, which is connected to the pump body via an external thread to realize unidirectional fluid flow and loop switching functions. The above structure ensures unidirectional movement of the coating material, and the above parts are easy to disassemble and replace. It prevents coating backflow from causing the pump body to run dry, while also reducing maintenance costs.

[0060] As a further explanation of this utility model, the closing switch assembly 9 includes a sealing rod, a pressure spring, and a micro switch. When the pump body pressure exceeds a threshold, the compression spring triggers the switch to cut off the power, and it automatically resets after the pressure drops. This structure prevents paint backflow from causing the pump to run dry, while also reducing maintenance costs.

[0061] As a further explanation of this utility model, the discharge valve assembly 7 is a one-way valve structure, including a valve stem 701, a second valve ball, and a compression spring 703, which connects to the pump body via a thread to ensure that fluid only flows out and not in. This structure ensures continuous spraying and avoids uneven atomization caused by pressure fluctuations.
