Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of Roots pump oil replenishment, and in particular to a Roots pump oil replenishment structure. Background Technology

[0002] As a precision positive displacement vacuum pump, the stable operation of its core transmission components—synchronous gears and bearings—is highly dependent on continuous and clean lubrication. Therefore, the pump body typically has a separate gearbox, and lubricating oil needs to be replenished regularly to maintain its optimal oil level, thereby ensuring good lubrication, heat dissipation, and extending the equipment's lifespan.

[0003] Currently, most Roots pumps use a traditional oil cup structure for oil replenishment. This structure typically involves an oil inlet located above the gearbox, sealed with a threaded cap. Replenishment requires manually unscrewing the cap and injecting new oil into the tank via a funnel or by direct pouring. While this structure is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, it has significant technical drawbacks in practical use, primarily inconvenience during oil replenishment and a high risk of contamination. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To improve oil replenishment efficiency, this application provides a Roots pump oil replenishment structure.

[0005] The oil replenishment structure for a Roots pump provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A Roots pump oil replenishment structure includes a housing, an oil replenishment box, and a control board. The housing has an installation cavity for accommodating gears. The upper end of the housing has an oil replenishment port that communicates with the installation cavity. The oil replenishment box is detachably connected to the inner wall of the oil replenishment port and has an oil storage cavity. The lower end of the oil replenishment box has an oil outlet that communicates with the oil storage cavity and the installation cavity. One end of the control board is hinged to the inner wall of the installation cavity, and the other end of the control board is used to control the opening and closing of the oil outlet.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of introducing contaminants easily by the traditional open-cap refueling method is avoided, ensuring the cleanliness and oil level stability of the lubricating oil inside the gearbox. The oil outlet can be opened by rotating the control panel, improving the oil replenishment efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, it also includes a rotating column, the outer wall of the housing is provided with a rotating opening, the rotating column is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating opening, and the lower end of the rotating column is fixedly connected to one end of the control board.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the opening and closing of the oil replenishment channel can be precisely controlled from outside the casing, which not only makes the operation more convenient and labor-saving, but also effectively avoids oil contamination that may be caused by opening the cover, and significantly improves the sealing and reliability of the oil replenishment process.

[0009] Preferably, it also includes a limiting ring, which is coaxially fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column, and the lower end face of the limiting ring abuts against the outer wall of the housing.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting ring structure effectively restricts the vertical movement of the rotating column during operation through axial positioning, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the transmission position between the rotating column and the control board, thereby improving the accuracy of oil replenishment flow control and the reliability of long-term operation, while reducing wear and abnormal leakage caused by component displacement.

[0011] Preferably, it also includes an operating ring, which is disposed above the limiting ring and is coaxially fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the operating ring structure provides a wide and easy-to-apply operating interface, allowing users to easily and accurately rotate the rotating column from outside the housing, thereby indirectly controlling the opening and closing of the internal oil outlet. This greatly improves the convenience of operation and human-machine efficiency, while avoiding damage or contamination that may be caused by direct contact with precision parts.

[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the operating ring is fixedly connected with a first anti-slip protrusion. The length direction of the first anti-slip protrusion is parallel to the axis of the operating ring. Multiple first anti-slip protrusions are provided, and the multiple first anti-slip protrusions are evenly spaced around the axis of the operating ring.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the first anti-slip convex strip design significantly enhances the grip and torsional control precision during manual operation by increasing the friction coefficient of the operating ring surface, effectively preventing slippage and ensuring reliable torque transmission even in grease-contaminated or humid environments, thereby improving the smoothness, safety, and accuracy of oil replenishment adjustment operations.

[0015] Preferably, it also includes a cover, the upper end of the oil replenishment box is provided with a cleaning port, the inner wall of the cover is threaded to the outer wall of the oil replenishment box, and the cover is used to cover the cleaning port.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the cover structure achieves a reliable seal with the oil replenishment box cleaning port through threaded connection. This not only prevents external contaminants from entering the oil storage chamber and ensures the cleanliness of the lubricating oil, but also facilitates disassembly for cleaning the oil chamber or replenishing grease. This achieves a balance between sealing and maintainability, effectively extending the maintenance cycle and service life of the oil replenishment system.

[0017] Preferably, a second anti-slip protrusion is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cover. The length direction of the second anti-slip protrusion is parallel to the axis of the cover. Multiple second anti-slip protrusions are provided, and the multiple second anti-slip protrusions are evenly spaced around the axis of the cover.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the second anti-slip ridge design significantly enhances the friction when manually turning the cover by optimizing the anti-slip texture on the surface of the cover, ensuring that it can still provide reliable operating force in oily environments, effectively preventing slippage, thereby improving the convenience of cover disassembly and assembly and the safety of operation, while maintaining the sealing integrity of the oil replenishment system.

[0019] Preferably, it also includes a filter screen, which is detachably connected to the inner wall of the oil storage chamber and is located between the cleaning port and the oil replenishment port.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the detachable filter structure can effectively filter out solid particulate contaminants that may be contained in the replenishing grease through physical interception, ensuring the cleanliness of the lubricating oil entering the gearbox, thereby significantly reducing the risk of abnormal wear of gears and bearings, extending the service life of core transmission components, and facilitating regular cleaning or replacement to maintain filtration efficiency.

[0021] Preferably, it also includes a one-way valve. The outer wall of the oil replenishment box is provided with an exchange port, which is connected to the oil storage chamber. The one-way valve is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the exchange port and is used to allow external gas to enter the oil outlet chamber.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the one-way valve structure allows external gas to enter the oil storage chamber in one direction, which can balance the internal and external air pressure during the oil replenishment process. This ensures that the grease can still flow smoothly and stably to the oil outlet under negative pressure conditions, effectively avoiding oil circuit interruption or uneven oil output caused by the formation of a vacuum in the chamber, and significantly improving the reliability and continuity of the oil replenishment process.

[0023] Preferably, it also includes a limiting post, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity and is used to abut against the control plate.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting column structure provides a precise mechanical limiting point for the control board, effectively limiting the excessive rotation stroke of the control board, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the opening and closing state of the oil outlet, thereby achieving stable control of the replenishment flow, while preventing sealing failure or mechanical damage caused by excessive displacement of the control board, thus improving the durability and reliability of the system.

[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. It avoids the problem of introducing contaminants easily by the traditional open-cap refueling method, ensuring the cleanliness and oil level stability of the lubricating oil inside the gearbox. The oil outlet can be opened by turning the control panel, improving the oil replenishment efficiency. 2. The cover structure achieves a reliable seal with the oil replenishment box cleaning port through a threaded connection, which not only prevents external contaminants from entering the oil storage chamber and ensures the cleanliness of the lubricating oil, but also facilitates disassembly for cleaning or replenishing the oil chamber, achieving a balance between sealing and maintainability, and effectively extending the maintenance cycle and service life of the oil replenishment system. 3. The limiting column structure provides precise mechanical limiting points for the control board, effectively limiting the excessive rotation stroke of the control board, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the opening and closing state of the oil outlet, thereby achieving stable control of the replenishment flow, while preventing seal failure or mechanical damage caused by excessive displacement of the control board, thus improving the durability and reliability of the system.
