Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water pump manufacturing technology, and relates to a self-priming pump, and particularly to a self-priming pump body. Background Technology
[0002] A centrifugal pump that can automatically draw water without pre-filling the suction line is called a self-priming pump. Before starting a self-priming pump, ensure that the pump body is filled with water or that it already contains water. Under the high-speed rotation of the impeller, the water in the pump body mixes with the air drawn from the suction line, forming a gas-liquid mixture that is discharged to the separation chamber. During this process, the air is expelled and the water returns to the impeller inlet through the return valve. This process is repeated until all the air is expelled and the water in the line is drawn back up.
[0003] The pump body is the core component of a self-priming pump, directly affecting its self-priming efficiency. For example, Chinese patent literature discloses a self-priming pump body structure [Application No.: 202121706593.5; Authorization Announcement No.: CN215486625U], which includes a hollow body with an integrally formed partition wall dividing the interior of the body into an inlet chamber and a pump chamber. The pump chamber houses the impeller. The body is divided into an inlet, an outlet, and a filling port. The pump chamber is connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber. The inlet chamber and the pump chamber are arranged side by side in the thickness direction of the pump body. An annular wall is integrally formed in the inlet chamber and extends in a curved shape in the inlet chamber. The annular wall divides the inlet chamber into an inlet chamber and a return chamber. An inlet hole is provided on the partition wall, which connects the inlet chamber and the pump chamber. A diversion chamber is provided between the outlet of the pump chamber and the outlet. The diversion chamber is connected to the return chamber through a flow channel. The return chamber is connected to the pump chamber through a return hole provided in the partition wall.
[0004] The above-mentioned self-priming pump body structure achieves the corresponding function by forming two parallel chambers in the thickness direction of the pump body, which can improve the structural compactness to a certain extent. However, the water inlet is located at the upper part of the body, and the pump chamber is located at the lower part of the pump body. The water inlet enters the water inlet chamber through the through hole, and then enters the water inlet chamber through the water inlet hole, and then enters the diversion chamber and the return chamber. The structural layout is still not reasonable enough, resulting in a long water inlet path, which affects the self-priming efficiency. Moreover, the diversion chamber and the return chamber have small volumes, and the separation speed of air and water is slow, which reduces the self-priming efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by providing a self-priming pump body with a reasonable structural design and high self-priming efficiency.

[0010] In the self-priming pump body described above, the main body has several reinforcing ribs, and the two ends of each rib are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the front and back sides of the main body.
[0011] In the self-priming pump body described above, the main body, volute, baffle, and reinforcing ribs are an integral structure.

[0022] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the self-priming pump body includes a body 1 with an internal cavity. The body 1 has a volute 2 inside. The volute 2 is located in the lower part of the inner cavity of the body 1, and the front end of the volute 2 extends to the front of the body 1 to form a mounting port 3 for installing a motor. The rear end of the volute 2 extends to the back of the body 1 to form a water inlet 4. The top of the volute 2 has a curved connecting hole 5 that connects the inner cavity of the body 1 and the inner cavity of the volute 2. The top of the body 1 has a water outlet 6 and a water filling port 7 that are both connected to its inner cavity. The bottom of the body 1 has a mounting hole 8 for installing a return valve. The volute 2 has a return hole 9 that connects the water inlet 4 and the mounting hole 8.
[0024] The volute 2 in the pump body of this self-priming pump is used for impeller installation. The rear end of the volute 2 has a water inlet 4. The water inlet path from the water inlet 4 to the volute 2 is short, which improves the self-priming efficiency. Moreover, the inner cavity of the main body 1 outside the volute 2 integrates the functions of the previous liquid storage chamber, diversion chamber, and return water chamber, eliminating the need for partition walls and ring walls. This makes it easy to manufacture and has a compact structure. The large volume of the inner cavity of the main body 1 outside the volute 2 facilitates the holding of more gas-liquid mixtures and also facilitates the separation of gas-liquid mixtures, thus improving the self-priming efficiency.
[0025] When using this self-priming pump, water is first poured into the main body 1 through the filling port 7. Then, the impeller rotates in the volute 2. The centrifugal force generated by the impeller creates a negative pressure in the volute 2. Air and water in the pipe connected to the inlet port 4 enter the volute 2. The rotation of the impeller mixes the air and water, and the gas-liquid mixture enters the inner cavity of the main body 1 through the connecting hole 5. The air will be discharged from the outlet port 6. The pressure in the inner cavity of the main body 1 is insufficient to push the water to flow out of the outlet port 6. The water in the inner cavity of the main body 1 will re-enter the volute through the return hole 9. This cycle continues until the air in the pipe connected to the inlet port 4 and the main body 1 are exhausted. The inner cavity of the main body 1 is filled with water, and the water is self-primed at the outlet port 6.
[0026] To elaborate further, in this embodiment, the orifice of the connecting hole 5 is flared, which increases the flow rate and improves the self-priming efficiency. The body 1 has a baffle 10 located between the outlet 6 and the connecting hole 5. The baffle 10 blocks the gas-liquid mixture, breaks up the bubbles, accelerates air separation, and improves the self-priming efficiency. In this embodiment, the two ends of the baffle 10 are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the front and back sides of the body 1.
[0027] The outlet 6 is located at the top center, and the opening of the connecting hole 5 is set facing the inner end of the outlet 6. The baffle 10 is set close to the inner end of the outlet 6. The baffle 10 is in the shape of an arc plate, and the concave arc surface of the baffle 10 is set facing the connecting hole 5. This structure is reasonable, with less turbulence, faster flow rate, good blocking effect of the baffle 10, and high self-priming efficiency.
[0028] The main body 1 has several reinforcing ribs 11, and the two ends of each rib are fixed to the inner walls of the front and back sides of the main body 1, respectively. The reinforcing ribs 11 increase the structural strength and extend the service life; in this embodiment, there are two reinforcing ribs 11, and the two reinforcing ribs 11 are located on both sides of the connecting hole 5.
[0029] The main body 1, volute, baffle 10, and reinforcing rib 11 are integrated into a single structure. This self-priming pump has a one-piece molded body, which is convenient to manufacture, has fewer leakage points, effectively avoids leakage, and has good operational stability.
[0030] The upper front of the main body 1 has a connection hole 12 for mounting a temperature sensor and connecting it to the inner cavity of the main body 1, and a connection hole 13 for mounting a pressure sensor and connecting it to the inner cavity of the main body 1. This facilitates installation and allows for easy monitoring and control of the temperature and pressure inside the main body 1 during use.
[0031] The upper front of the main body 1 has a connection hole 3 14 for connecting a pressure tank and communicating with the inner cavity of the main body 1. The connection hole 3 14 facilitates the connection of the pressure tank. During use, the pressure tank plays a role in balancing the water volume and pressure inside the main body 1, so that the pump body of this self-priming pump works stably.
