Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum pump technology, specifically to a multi-stage Roots vacuum pump structure. Background Technology

[0002] A Roots vacuum pump, or simply a Roots pump, is a type of variable displacement vacuum pump containing two synchronously rotating, oppositely rotating lobe-shaped rotors. The rotors and the pump casing have small gaps that prevent them from contacting each other. Roots vacuum pumps are widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, metallurgy, and textiles. Vacuum pump accessories are used as silencers to control noise levels. The working principle of a Roots pump is to move gas by the pushing action of a pair of synchronously rotating, oppositely rotating lobe-shaped rotors within the pump chamber. The rotors and the pump casing do not contact each other; the gap is typically 0.1-0.8 mm.

[0003] The above technical conditions also have shortcomings: when traditional single-stage Roots pumps operate at higher inlet pressures, the rotor bears a large axial load, which can easily lead to accelerated bearing wear and a shortened service life.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs a multi-stage Roots vacuum pump structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-stage Roots vacuum pump structure to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-stage Roots vacuum pump structure, including a lower shell, an upper shell on the lower shell, an air inlet on the upper shell, a front bearing seat on one side of the lower and upper shells, a motor connected to one side of the front bearing seat, an exhaust plate connected to the bottom of the lower shell, an exhaust hole on one side of the exhaust plate, a rear bearing seat on the other side of the lower and upper shells, a gearbox connected to one side of the rear bearing seat, and mutually compatible male and female rotors arranged inside the lower and upper shells. One end of the male rotor is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the motor, and a first gear and a second gear are respectively connected to the other ends of the male and female rotors, with the first gear and the second gear meshing. The male rotor includes a main shaft, a first-stage rotor fixedly arranged near the middle of the main shaft, and a second-stage rotor fixedly connected to the main shaft near the front bearing seat.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, the multi-stage rotor structure can compress gas step by step, effectively reducing the axial load on a single-stage rotor, reducing bearing wear, and extending the service life of the pump body.

[0008] Preferably, a third-stage rotor, a fourth-stage rotor, and a fifth-stage rotor are sequentially connected to the main shaft on one side of the first-stage rotor, and the female rotor has the same multi-stage rotor as the male rotor.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the multi-stage rotor working in tandem can significantly improve the pumping efficiency and ultimate vacuum of the vacuum pump.

[0010] Preferably, the outer circle diameters of the third-stage, fourth-stage, and fifth-stage rotors are smaller than the outer circle diameters of the first-stage and second-stage rotors.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solutions, reducing the rotor diameter of the high-pressure section helps to increase the interstage pressure difference, improve gas compression efficiency, and enhance the pumping performance of the pump.

[0012] Preferably, the concave curvature of the sides of the first-stage and second-stage rotors is greater than that of the third-stage, fourth-stage, and fifth-stage rotors.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solutions, the rotor profile design with different curvatures optimizes the sealing and meshing performance between rotors, reduces internal gas leakage, and improves volumetric efficiency.

[0014] Preferably, a frequency converter is provided on one side of the gearbox.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor speed can be adjusted, thereby flexibly controlling the pumping performance and energy consumption of the vacuum pump to meet the needs of different working conditions.

[0016] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: by adopting a multi-stage rotor combination structure, the axial force on the rotor is effectively dispersed, bearing wear is significantly reduced, and the service life of the equipment is extended; through differentiated rotor diameter and profile design, the interstage pressure difference and sealing performance are optimized, significantly improving pumping efficiency and vacuum level; the addition of a frequency converter further enhances the equipment's adaptability to operating conditions and its energy-saving potential; the overall structure is compact and reasonable, easy to maintain, and suitable for high-performance vacuum acquisition applications.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0022] A multi-stage Roots vacuum pump structure includes a lower housing 1, an upper housing 2 mounted on the lower housing 1, forming a cavity between the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2, an air inlet 3 on the upper housing 2 for connecting an air inlet pipe, a front bearing seat 4 on one side of the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2, a motor 5 connected to one side of the front bearing seat 4, an exhaust plate 6 connected to the bottom of the lower housing 1, and an exhaust port 7 on one side of the exhaust plate 6. Gas extracted by the vacuum pump is transported through the lower housing 1 to the exhaust plate 6 and finally discharged from the pump body through the exhaust port 7. A rear bearing seat 8 on the other side of the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2, a gearbox 9 connected to one side of the rear bearing seat 8, and a male rotor 11 and a female rotor 12, which are adapted to each other, are arranged inside the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. One end of the male rotor 11 is coaxially fixed to the output shaft of the motor 5. A first gear 13 and a second gear 14 are respectively connected to the other ends of the male rotor 11 and the female rotor 12. The first gear 13 and the second gear 14 mesh with each other, thereby enabling the two rotors to rotate synchronously. The male rotor 11 includes a main shaft 111. A first-stage rotor 112 is fixedly installed on the main shaft 111 near the middle position. A second-stage rotor 113 is fixedly connected on the main shaft 111 near the front bearing seat 4. When gas is drawn in, it is drawn into the chamber where the first-stage rotor 112 is located and compressed by the first-stage rotor 112 into the chamber where the second-stage rotor 113 is located, which effectively reduces the axial pressure on the rotor, reduces the wear on the bearing, and thus increases the service life of the vacuum pump.

[0023] Furthermore, a third-stage rotor 114, a fourth-stage rotor 115, and a fifth-stage rotor 116 are sequentially connected on the main shaft 111 and on one side of the first-stage rotor 112. The female rotor 12 has the same multi-stage rotor as the male rotor 11. The first-stage rotor 112, the third-stage rotor 114, and the fourth-stage rotor 115 rotate in the cavity formed by the lower shell 1 and the upper shell 2. The second-stage rotor 113 rotates in the internal cavity of the front bearing seat 4, and the fifth-stage rotor 116 rotates in the internal cavity of the rear bearing seat 8. The absorption effect is improved by using multi-stage rotors.

[0024] Furthermore, refer to Figure 5 In the figure, the outer circle diameters of the third-stage rotor 114, the fourth-stage rotor 115, and the fifth-stage rotor 116 are smaller than the outer circle diameters of the first-stage rotor 112 and the second-stage rotor 113, which effectively reduces their intake volume, thereby increasing the pressure difference and improving the intake effect.

[0025] Furthermore, refer to Figure 6 In the figure, the concave curvature of the sides of the first-stage rotor 112 and the second-stage rotor 113 is greater than that of the sides of the third-stage rotor 114, the fourth-stage rotor 115 and the fifth-stage rotor 116, which further reduces the intake volume of the third-stage rotor 114, the fourth-stage rotor 115 and the fifth-stage rotor 116.

[0026] Furthermore, sealing rings are installed at the joints of multiple housings to improve the overall sealing performance of the vacuum pump.

[0027] Furthermore, a frequency converter 10 is provided on one side of the gearbox 9 for controlling and adjusting the working status of the vacuum pump.

[0028] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: Motor 5 drives the male rotor 11 to rotate, and through the meshing transmission of gear 13 and gear 14, drives the female rotor 12 to rotate synchronously in the opposite direction; gas enters the pump chamber from the air inlet 3, and after being initially compressed by the first-stage rotor 112, it enters the chambers containing the second-stage rotor 113, the third-stage rotor 114, the fourth-stage rotor 115, and the fifth-stage rotor 116 for multi-stage compression in sequence; finally, the compressed gas is collected by the exhaust plate 6 and discharged from the exhaust port 7. The multi-stage rotor structure not only realizes the step-by-step compression of gas and effectively reduces the single-stage load, but also optimizes the flow path and sealing performance inside the pump through the differentiated design of rotor diameter and profile parameters, thereby significantly improving the overall performance and working efficiency of the vacuum pump.
