Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a single-stage pipeline pump, specifically a single-stage pipeline pump that combines a dynamic seal with an auxiliary impeller and an integrated self-adjusting packing seal system. This solves the problems of existing mechanical seals, especially the high cost, complex external system, high investment cost, and high maintenance cost of mechanical seals in situations involving solid particles, impurities, and corrosive environments. Background Technology

[0002] A single-stage inline pump is a centrifugal pump that can be directly installed in a pipeline system. Its inlet and outlet are on the same horizontal line with the same diameter. The impeller is directly mounted on the extended shaft of the motor, resulting in a compact structure, small footprint, and low construction investment. It is widely used in building water supply, industrial processes, HVAC, and agricultural irrigation.

[0003] As the core equipment for fluid transportation in the system, the main shaft sealing performance of existing single-stage pipeline pumps directly affects the operating efficiency, reliability and maintenance costs of the equipment. In particular, the reliability of the seal is especially important in harsh working conditions such as those containing solid particulate impurities and corrosive substances.

[0004] Existing single-stage pipeline pump shaft seals use mechanical seals or traditional packing seals. Mechanical seals have complex structures, require high precision, and are expensive. Furthermore, mechanical seals fail more frequently or require expensive and complex external auxiliary systems to achieve sealing under conditions containing solid particulate impurities and corrosive environments.

[0005] Traditional packing seals achieve sealing by causing radial expansion of the packing through axial clamping force. Therefore, they require periodic maintenance and complex external filtration, flushing, and cooling systems. Furthermore, they are more prone to seal failure due to wear under conditions containing solid particulate impurities and corrosive environments.

[0006] Due to the difference in structural dimensions between mechanical seals and packing seals, existing mechanical seals and packing seals on pipeline pumps cannot achieve universality and interchangeability of interface dimensions. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the aforementioned problems, the main objective of this utility model is to provide a single-stage pipeline pump that combines a dynamic seal with an auxiliary impeller seal and an integrated self-adjusting packing seal system.
