The utility model discloses a vacuum
buffer tank for a Roots vacuum unit, which relates to the technical field of vacuum buffer tanks and comprises a tank body, a
cyclone separator and a
buffer gas tank. Flow guide fan blades with holes are arranged in the tank body, a smooth inclined baffle is installed in the tank body, a floating ball liquid level meter and an electric
ball valve are installed at the bottom of the tank body, an air inlet is formed in the left side of the
cyclone separator, an air outlet is formed in the right side of the
cyclone separator, and an ash hopper is installed below the cyclone separator. Under the combined action of a motor, a
bevel gear set, a belt transmission device and a straight rod,
airflow can be driven by a spiral
fan blade to be guided to a gaseous buffer layer from an air inlet, then is driven by rotation of a fan to be guided into a
buffer gas tank from the gaseous buffer layer, and is exhausted from an air outlet; the gas-liquid-
solid three-phase separation improves the efficiency of a vacuum
system manufactured by the Roots vacuum unit, and prevents
solid particles or liquid from damaging equipment.
