Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dredging equipment technology, and in particular to a pneumatic dredging pump controlled by two knife valves. Background Technology

[0002] In today's various dredging operations, such as urban river management, port and waterway maintenance, industrial wastewater pool cleaning, and coal mine underground water storage treatment, efficient and reliable dredging equipment is crucial. As a core piece of equipment, the performance of the dredging pump directly affects the efficiency, cost, and environmental impact of the dredging work.

[0003] Currently, traditional pneumatic sludge pumps mostly use a single valve or electric control. However, electric valves are prone to damage under overload, and single-valve systems are prone to material backflow during switching, resulting in switching delays and wear. To address these issues, we propose a pneumatic sludge pump controlled by two knife valves. Utility Model Content

Compressed air enters the double-acting cylinder 5 through the air pipeline 11. The cylinder drives the linkage control lever 9 to synchronously control the opening and closing states of the first knife valve 801 and the second knife valve 802. When the first knife valve 801 is open, the second knife valve 802 is closed. The feed pipe 7 sucks in sludge through the suction head 701. Then, the linkage control lever 9 switches the valve states, closing the first knife valve 801 while opening the second knife valve 802. Compressed air enters the pump body 4 through the compressed air interface 6. Under the action of the Laval nozzle 12, a negative pressure is formed, which discharges the sludge from the discharge pipe 10. The working cycle is monitored by the timer 203. Finally, after the sludge removal operation is completed, the equipment is hoisted and transferred using the lifting lugs 13.
