Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of centrifugal pump technology, and in particular to an antifreeze centrifugal pump. Background Technology

[0002] Centrifugal pumps operate by using the rotation of an impeller to cause water to move at a centrifugal speed. They are widely used in industries such as power, metallurgy, coal, and building materials. In cold winters or low-temperature environments, when a centrifugal pump stops working, a certain amount of medium remains inside the pump body. This residual medium is prone to freezing at low temperatures. Because water expands when it freezes, it may cause the pump body, impeller, and other components to crack, affecting the service life of the centrifugal pump, increasing equipment maintenance costs and downtime, and causing inconvenience to production. To prevent centrifugal pumps from freezing and cracking, the usual method is to manually empty the residual medium inside the pump body after it stops working. However, this method is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to completely empty the residual medium inside the pump body, still posing a risk of freezing and cracking. Therefore, we propose an antifreeze centrifugal pump. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides an antifreeze centrifugal pump. This invention solves the problem that residual media easily freezes at low temperatures. Since water expands when it freezes, it can cause cracks in components such as the pump body and impeller, affecting the pump's lifespan, increasing maintenance costs and downtime, and causing inconvenience to production. To prevent freezing and cracking, the common method is to manually empty the residual media from the pump after it stops working. However, this method is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to completely empty the residual media from the pump, still posing a risk of freezing and cracking.
