Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of horizontal multistage centrifugal pump technology, and in particular to an end-inlet segmental horizontal multistage centrifugal pump. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the most common structure used in horizontal multistage centrifugal pumps in the industry is a top-inlet suction section, ball bearings at the non-drive end, and a balance disc or balance drum as the balancing structure. This structure has limited radial or axial expansion, a large footprint, strict requirements for installation foundations, and high maintenance costs. The non-drive end bearings are usually located inside the bearing housing, and replacing the bearings requires disassembling the bearing housing, which is time-consuming. In addition, if a balance disc structure is used, high-pressure water can easily leak intermittently between the balance disc and the balance seat, causing energy loss and reducing pump efficiency. If a balance drum structure is used, with frequent changes in axial force, the balance drum cannot dynamically adjust according to changes in operating conditions. When the flow or pressure fluctuates, it is easy to cause excessive residual axial force, which will further accelerate wear over long-term operation, leading to increased clearance, aggravated media leakage, and reduced pump efficiency. It also has high footprint costs, difficult and time-consuming maintenance, and low operating efficiency.

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, it is necessary to study and design an end-inlet segmental horizontal multistage centrifugal pump to overcome the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an end-inlet segmental horizontal multistage centrifugal pump to solve the problems existing in the prior art, save materials and floor space, reduce costs, facilitate disassembly and reduce maintenance costs, and effectively balance axial forces while improving the overall efficiency of the pump.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution: This utility model provides an end-inlet segmental horizontal multistage centrifugal pump, comprising:

[0006] The pump body has a shaft rotatably connected inside it. The pump body has a suction section with an inlet. Several impellers and several guide vanes are mounted on the shaft. Balance drum I and balance drum II are mounted on the shaft. A balance disc is mounted on the shaft. Both balance drum I and balance drum II abut against the balance disc.

[0007] A bushing is installed at the non-driving end of the shaft, a sliding bearing is installed between the bushing and the suction section, an elastic retaining ring is installed between the sliding bearing and the suction section, a baffle is provided at the end of the shaft, the baffle abuts against the bushing, and the baffle is fixedly connected to the shaft by a set bolt.

[0008] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:

[0009] 1. Compared with the top-feed suction section, this device reduces the size of the traditional horizontal multistage centrifugal pump without affecting performance, saving materials and floor space, reducing costs and installation requirements, and increasing the applicability of the centrifugal pump to complex sites.

[0010] 2. Compared with the traditional ball bearing structure used in the non-drive end, this device is easier to disassemble and maintain, saving time and labor costs, and has a longer service life, stronger load-bearing and impact resistance, increasing the centrifugal pump's applicability to complex working conditions.

[0011] 3. Compared with using a balance drum or balance disc alone, this device reduces the leakage of the medium and the wear rate of the balance structure, thereby improving the overall efficiency and service life of the pump.

[0012] In summary, this utility model solves the problems of large footprint, high material cost, difficult maintenance, and low efficiency in the prior art. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Reference Figure 1This utility model provides an end-inlet segmental horizontal multistage centrifugal pump, comprising:

[0019] The pump body has a shaft 12 rotatably connected inside the pump body. The pump body has a suction section 1 with an inlet. Several impellers 7 and several guide vanes 8 are installed on the shaft 12. Balance drum I9 and balance drum II10 are installed on the shaft 12. Balance disc 11 is installed on the shaft 12. Balance drum I and balance drum II10 both abut against balance disc 11.

[0020] A bushing 4 is installed at the non-driving end of shaft 12. A sliding bearing 5 is installed between the bushing 4 and the suction section 1. An elastic retaining ring 6 is installed between the sliding bearing 5 and the suction section 1. A baffle 3 is provided at the end of shaft 12.

[0021] In this device, the suction section 1 adopts a novel end-inlet suction section. The pump inlet is machined at the end of the suction section 1. Without affecting the performance, the size of the traditional horizontal multistage centrifugal pump is reduced, saving materials and floor space, and reducing costs.

[0022] The non-drive end adopts a structure with sliding bearing 5 and bushing 4. During disassembly and maintenance, simply remove the set bolt 2, remove the baffle 3, and then remove the elastic retaining ring 6 to pull out the bushing 4 and sliding bearing 5. Compared with the traditional ball bearing structure, the step of disassembling the bearing box is eliminated, saving time and labor costs. Moreover, the sliding bearing has a longer service life than the traditional ball bearing structure, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, the balancing structure has been improved, adopting a combination of balancing drum I9, balancing disc 11, and balancing drum II10, which improves the overall efficiency while effectively balancing axial force.
