Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circulating pump technology, and in particular to a large-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulating pump. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the petrochemical, oil refinery, and nuclear power industries, as project capacity and output increase, the demand for cooling water also increases, leading to a trend of increasingly higher heads for cooling water circulating pumps. This increase in head also brings problems such as increased bearing load, resulting in higher bearing temperatures and increased seal leakage, affecting pump lifespan and increasing maintenance and management requirements.
[0003] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, it is necessary to study and design a new type of vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump suitable for large flow rate, so as to overcome the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the technical problems mentioned above, such as increased bearing load, high bearing temperature, increased seal leakage, reduced pump lifespan, and increased maintenance costs caused by the increase in head, this paper provides a high-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump.
[0005] The technical means adopted in this utility model are as follows:
[0006] A type of vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulating pump suitable for large flow rates, including a motor frame and pump head;
[0007] Furthermore, the motor frame and pump head are fixedly mounted on the base. The weight of the motor frame and the motor on it is borne by the foundation under the base, which provides a higher load capacity and the weight of the motor does not affect the pump head. After the motor frame is removed, the pump head can be removed from the base as a whole, shortening maintenance time.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper end of the pump head consists of an outlet section, a seal, a splash guard, bearing components, a reverse support, and an anti-reverse device, while the lower end consists of a shaft system and hydraulic components; the shaft of the shaft system passes through the outlet section from bottom to top and is connected to the motor.
[0009] Furthermore, a sealing cavity is provided at the top of the outlet section, and the outlet section and the sealing cavity are integral structures. A seal is assembled inside the sealing cavity. A splash guard is provided outside the seal to encapsulate the seal in the sealing cavity. The splash guard collects the leaked medium to prevent the medium from splashing everywhere.
[0010] Furthermore, a bearing component is also provided at the top of the outlet section for shaft support;
[0011] Furthermore, a reverse support is installed at the top of the outlet section, and an anti-reverse device is installed on the reverse support to prevent the pump from reversing when starting, running, or stopping, which would affect the operation of the entire system. This ensures that the pump will not reverse under any operating conditions.
[0012] Furthermore, the hydraulic components are located at the lower end of the shaft system.
[0013] Furthermore, the sealing cavity is connected to the pressure relief pipeline, and the flow rate of the sealing flush is adjusted by the valve on the pressure relief pipeline to reduce the pressure in the sealing cavity and reduce the leakage of the seal.
[0014] Furthermore, the splash guard is connected to the leakage collection pipeline to guide the liquid back into the pump pit.
[0015] Furthermore, one end of the bearing component is connected to the pump outlet via a cooling water inlet pipe, and the other end is connected to the pit via a cooling water outlet pipe, forming a self-cooling return flow of the bearing. Cooling water is introduced into the bearing component from the pump outlet and then flows back to the pump pit from the bearing component. The entire cooling process uses its own medium and does not require external cooling water supply, ensuring that more heat is removed when the bearing load increases, thus improving the stability of bearing operation.
[0016] Furthermore, the bearing components include: oil seals, deep groove ball bearings, spherical roller bearings, cooling water pipes, and bearing housings;
[0017] Furthermore, the bearing assembly employs a combination of spherical roller bearings and deep groove ball bearings. The spherical roller bearings provide a radial force, allowing the rotor to automatically adjust towards the center while bearing axial forces. The deep groove ball bearings provide radial force during rotor adjustment, preventing the rotor from tipping over and improving the overall stability of the rotor.
[0018] Furthermore, deep groove ball bearings and spherical roller bearings are installed inside the bearing housing;
[0019] Furthermore, a cooling water pipe is installed on the outer wall of the bearing housing. The two ends of the cooling water pipe are connected to the cooling water inlet pipe and the cooling water outlet pipe, respectively, for cooling the lubricating oil inside the bearing housing.
[0020] Furthermore, the bearing housing and bearing cover are fixed together with fasteners;
[0021] Furthermore, the oil seal is located inside the bearing cap to prevent lubricating oil from splashing.
[0022] Furthermore, the spherical roller bearing and the deep groove ball bearing are respectively installed on both sides of the bearing housing;
[0023] Furthermore, an oil baffle is provided on the upper part of the inner ring of the deep groove ball bearing, and the oil baffle and the deep groove ball bearing are fixed by a lock nut.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0025] 1. The utility model provides a vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump suitable for large flow rates. The bearing adopts a combination of spherical roller bearings and deep groove ball bearings to achieve automatic rotor self-alignment and improve the stability of pump operation.
[0026] 2. The utility model provides a large-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump with an anti-reverse device installed on the reverse bracket, which can prevent the pump from reversing during startup, operation, and shutdown.
[0027] 3. The utility model provides a large-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump. The bearing is cooled by its own medium, eliminating the need for external cooling water, reducing additional engineering costs, and improving reliability under increased load conditions.
[0028] 4. The utility model provides a large-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump with an external splash guard installed on the seal. The pressure of the sealing cavity is controlled by a valve on the pressure relief pipeline, which indirectly controls the amount of seal leakage. The splash guard collects the leaked medium and leads it back to the pit, thus avoiding the impact of medium leakage on the environment.
[0029] 5. The utility model provides a large-flow vertical single-stage mixed-flow cooling water circulation pump. The motor is mounted on the base through a motor frame, and its weight acts on the foundation, which will not affect the pump head. Larger specifications / weight motors can be used.
[0030] In summary, the technical solution of this utility model solves the problems in the prior art where the bearing load increases with the increase of the pump head, resulting in high bearing temperature, increased seal leakage, reduced pump lifespan, and increased maintenance and management costs.
