Shown in Fig. 1 (a), 4 (a) and 5 (a), in the mould component 14 of back, form a ring-type cooling chamber 65 round shaft sealing 49,50.Cooling water circulates in cooling chamber 65 so that cool off lubricant oil Y in the recess 47,48.
First embodiment has following effect.
The diameter of leading flank 492,502 that is installed in each shaft sealing 49,50 around the relevant rotating shaft 19,20 is greater than the diameter of rotating shaft 19,20 circumference sides 192,202.In this embodiment, each labyrinth seal 57,58 is arranged between the bottom surface 472,482 of the leading flank 492,502 of reference axis sealing 49,50 and recess 47,48.Therefore, compare between the mould component 14 in the circumference side 192,202 and the back that are arranged in each rotating shaft 19,20 with labyrinth seal, and the diameter of each labyrinth seal 57,58 is relatively large.The diameter of each labyrinth seal 57,58 is big more, and the volume in chamber, labyrinth 551,552,561,562 is just big more separately.This has improved the sealability of labyrinth seal 57,58.Therefore, thus the layout of each labyrinth seal 57,58 of this embodiment is for increasing separately the volume in chamber, labyrinth 551,552,561,562 that to improve labyrinth seal 57,58 sealability aspects be preferred.
Space between the wall of each recess 47,48 and the reference axis sealing 49,50 is more little, and what lubricant oil Y entered this space may be just more little.In this embodiment, the leading flank 492,502 of the bottom surface 472,482 of each recess 47,48 and reference axis sealing 49,50 can be closer to each other on whole substantially surface in the mode of unanimity.This is convenient to make minimum aperture g1, g2 to minimize.Each minimum aperture g1, g2 are more little, and the sealability of relevant labyrinth seal 57,58 is good more.Therefore, the position of each labyrinth seal 57,58 of this embodiment is preferred.
When Roots pump 11 was assembled fully, the resin layer 59,60 of each shaft sealing 49,50 contacted with the bottom surface 472,482 of related recess 47,48. Recess 47,48 is arranged in the back mould component 14 that is made of metal.When Roots pump 11 work, resin layer 59,60 slides simply along the bottom surface 472,482 of related recess 47,48 under the situation that does not influence each axis of rotation 19,20 rotation.
More particularly, when making Roots pump 11, the total amount (F1+d1) of the thickness d 1 (seeing Fig. 4 (c)) of degree of depth F1 of each annular groove 55 (seeing Fig. 4 (c)) and resin layer 59 is chosen to be a bit larger tham the protrusion amount H1 (seeing Fig. 4 (c)) of each annular protrusion 53.First rotating shaft 19 and first shaft sealing 49 are assembled together then, so that the bottom surface 472 of resin layer 59 contact recesses 47.In this state, allow first rotating shaft 19 to rotate reposefully.Equally, the total amount (F2+d2) of the thickness d 2 (seeing Fig. 5 (c)) of degree of depth F2 of each annular groove 56 (seeing Fig. 5 (c)) and resin layer 60 is chosen to be a bit larger tham the protrusion amount H2 (seeing Fig. 5 (c)) of each annular protrusion 54.Second rotating shaft 20 and second shaft sealing 50 are assembled together then, so that the bottom surface 482 of resin layer 60 contact recesses 48.In this state, allow second rotating shaft 20 to rotate reposefully.
Therefore, each resin layer 59,60 minimizes minimum aperture g1, g2 between shaft sealing 49,50 and the back mould component 14.If the sealing in each chamber, labyrinth 551,552,561,562 is improved, the sealability of each labyrinth seal 57,58 also can be improved.Can improve the sealing in chamber, labyrinth 551,552,561,562 by minimum aperture g1, the g2 that reduces separately.That is to say that each resin layer 59,60 of this embodiment has improved the sealability of labyrinth seal 57,58.
As described, the bottom surface 472,482 of each resin layer 59,60 contact related recess 47,48 under the situation that does not hinder 19,20 rotations of rotating shaft separately.Therefore, leading flank 492,502 places that each resin layer 59,60 are placed on reference axis sealing 49,50 are preferred for minimum aperture g1, g2 are minimized.
Labyrinth seal 57,58 can also stop gas leakage.More particularly, when Roots pump 11 work, the pressure in each pump chamber 39-43 surpasses atmospheric pressure.Yet each labyrinth seal 57,58 can prevent that gas from leaking into gear receiving cavity 331 along the surface of reference axis sealing 49,50 from the 5th pump chamber 43.That is to say that labyrinth seal 57,58 can stop oil leakage and gas leakage, from but optimal non-contact seal.
During first rotating shaft, 19 rotations, first spiral groove 61 of first shaft sealing 49 forms a path along the peripheral wall 471 of recess 47.This just transmits from the side corresponding to the 5th pump chamber 43 the lubricant oil Y in corresponding first spiral groove 61 paths towards gear receiving cavity 331.According to identical method, during second rotating shaft, 20 rotations, second spiral groove 62 of second shaft sealing 50 forms a path along the peripheral wall 481 of recess 48.So the lubricant oil corresponding to second spiral groove, 62 paths flows towards gear receiving cavity 331 from the side corresponding to the 5th pump chamber 43.Therefore, have each shaft sealing 49,50 and have the sealability of improved sealing lubricating oil Y as the spiral groove 61,62 of pumping installations.
Each spiral groove 61,62 seals 49,50 excircle side 491,501 along reference axis, or has the excircle side layout of the part of shaft sealing 49,50 maximum diameters.So the peripheral velocity at the part place that arranges each spiral groove 61,62 becomes maximum.Therefore, each spiral groove 61,62 is with higher relatively speed rotation.The gas that this promotes effectively between the peripheral wall 471,481 of the excircle side 491,501 of each shaft sealing 49,50 and related recess 47,48 makes it move towards gear receiving cavity 331 from the side corresponding to the 5th pump chamber 43.Lubricant oil Y between the peripheral wall 471,481 of the excircle side 491,501 of each shaft sealing 49,50 and related recess 47,48 is along with the motion of gas, thus also effectively from corresponding to a side of the 5th pump chamber 43 towards 331 motions of gear receiving cavity.Therefore, each spiral groove 61,62 of this embodiment arranges that for preventing that oil from leaking into the 5th pump chamber 43 from recess 47,48 be preferred.
If the rotation period of each spiral groove 61,62 increases, the sealability of shaft sealing 49,50 is just improved separately.Because it is relatively easy to increase the rotation period of each spiral groove 61,62, this spiral groove the 61, the 62nd, preferred pumping installations.
Each rotating shaft 19,20 comprises many and rotating shaft 19,20 integrally formed rotors.Therefore, whole if each shaft sealing 49,50 and relevant rotating shaft 19,20 form, the maximum diameter of shaft sealing 49,50 just must be selected according to the back diameter of the through hole separately 141,142 of mould component 14.Yet in this embodiment, each shaft sealing 49,50 was opened formation in 19,20 minutes with relevant rotating shaft.Thereby therefore shaft sealing 49,50 can be made the pumping effect that definite shape and size are advantageously improved this pumping installations.
The circumference side 192 of first rotating shaft 19 forms a small space with respect to the wall of through hole 141.Each the 5th rotor 27,32 forms the surface with respect to the chamber of back mould component 14 and 143 also forms a slight void.These spaces are that the 5th pump chamber 43 interior pressure import first labyrinth seal 57 with final stage.In addition, the circumference side 202 of second rotating shaft 50 forms a micro-gap with respect to the wall of through hole 142.Therefore pressure in the 5th pump chamber 43 be imported into second labyrinth seal 58.
Under the situation that does not have head pressure guide line 63,64, labyrinth seal 57,58 equally is subjected to the influence of suction district 431 internal pressures and pressure area 432 internal pressures of the 5th pump chamber 43.More particularly, if the pressure in the suction district 431 is P1, the pressure in 432 districts, pressure maximum district is that (P2>P1), the pressure P 1 from the 5th pump chamber 43, only about half of ((P2+P1)/2) of P2 total value are born in each labyrinth seal 57,58 to P2.
Pressure in each recess 47,48 that links to each other with gear receiving cavity 331 is corresponding with atmospheric pressure (about 1000 holders), the influence that it is not worked by each rotor 23-32.The pump action of spiral groove 61,62 makes the space internal pressure between each shaft sealing 49,50 and related recess 47,48 walls be reduced to a horizontal P3, and this horizontal P3 is lower than the atmospheric pressure at part place between each spiral groove 61,62 and relevant labyrinth seal 57,58.Therefore, if pump 11 does not have head pressure guide line 63,64, just become in the radial inner end of each labyrinth seal 57,58 and the pressure difference between the radial outer end and to be about P3-(P2+P1)/2.
Each head pressure guide line 63,64 of this embodiment has improved the effect that the pressure in the pressure maximum district 432 is directed to relevant labyrinth seal 57,58.That is to say that the effect that the pressure in the pressure maximum district 432 is directed to labyrinth seal 57,58 by head pressure guide line 63,64 is better than the pressure in the suction district 431 are directed to the effect of labyrinth seal 57,58.So the pressure that is held by each labyrinth seal 57,58 becomes more much bigger than value mentioned above (P2+P1)/2.Therefore, radial inner end and the pressure difference between the radial outer end in each labyrinth seal 57,58 becomes more much smaller than P3-(P2+P1)/2.Consequently, the effect that prevents oil leakage of each labyrinth seal improves.
The effect that pressure in the pressure maximum district 432 are directed to each labyrinth seal 57,58 depends on the connection area of each head pressure guide line 63,64.Owing to realize having the head pressure guide line 63,64 of the connection area that suits the requirements easily, head pressure guide line 63,64 can most desirably be directed to labyrinth seal 57,58 with the pressure in the pressure maximum district 432.
Head pressure guide line 63,64 is arranged in the chamber that forms the 5th pump chamber 43 and forms on the wall surface 143.Each through hole 141,142 that relevant rotating shaft 19,20 extends through forms in the chamber forms wall surface 143.The pressure maximum district 432 of the 5th pump chamber 43 forms wall surface 143 in the face of the chamber.Therefore, each head pressure guide line 63,64 forms on chamber shaping wall surface 143 easily, so that line 63,64 links to each other with associated through-holes 141,142 with pressure maximum district 432.
