In groove path 50, form air outlet 110 and steam outlet 120.These air outlets 110 and steam outlet 120 run through outer housing cover 22 respectively, with the fuel tank internal communication outside pump stream 41 and the petrolift 10 (with reference to Fig. 1).Air outlet 110 forms on the terminal part 54 of groove path 50.Steam outlet 120 is between entrance part 51 and air outlet 110, and the counterrotating side opposite with sense of rotation N at air outlet 110 forms on the position of the predetermined distance of being separated by.Air outlet 110 has the function of when petrolift starts the air of pump stream 41 and the inner existence of suction pipe 102 (with reference to Fig. 1) being discharged to fuel tank, in addition, steam outlet 120 has the function that the steam that comprises the steam that acts as a fuel that will be in pump stream 41 produces is discharged to fuel tank at interior bubble (hereinafter referred to as steam).
Below, these exhaust ports 110,120 are described.In Fig. 3, at the outlet side of air outlet 110, be the downside of the air outlet 110 of Fig. 3, configuration is by being fixed in valve base part 112 on the outer housing cover 22, valve member 113, and the bleed air valve mechanism 111 that constitutes of spring 114.Valve base part 112 is for example by resin forming, becomes the through hole 115 of air flue at central part, and the aperture of this through hole 115 is set at the aperture greater than air outlet 110.On the other hand, be respectively equipped with spring seat 116a, 116b on valve member 113 and outer housing cover 22, free length is set at and does not make valve member 113 spring 114 of position on valve base part 112 that fall, and is inlaid on two spring seat 116a, the 116b.
In Fig. 4, at the outlet side of steam outlet 120, be the downside of the steam outlet 120 of Fig. 4, configuration is by being formed at valve seat 122 on the outer housing cover 22, valve member 123, spring compression parts 124, and the steam discharge valve mechanism 121 that constitutes of spring 125.Spring compression parts 124 are for example by resin forming, become the through hole 126 of steam passage at central part, and the aperture of this through hole 126 is set at the aperture greater than steam outlet 120.On the other hand, on spring compression parts 124 and valve member 123, be respectively equipped with spring seat 127a, 127b, valve member 123 to making valve member 123 fall to being positioned at the spring 125 of pretension on the direction of valve seat 122, is inlaid on two spring seat 127a, the 127b.
Below, the action to petrolift 10 describes according to above-described structure.As shown in Figure 1, by illustrated power supply never, via being embedded in the terminal 46 in the connector 45, not shown brush and the commutator 34 that disposes on the top that can be contained in the armature 32 in the motor 30 with rotating freely, coil (unlabelled) supply capability to the periphery of the magnetic core 32a that is wound on armature 32, armature 32 is rotated, running shaft 35 is rotated, and follows the rotation of this running shaft 35, and impeller 24 also is rotated.
If impeller 24 rotates, then be present in the air of pump stream 41 inside, bear the kinetic energy of each blade of impeller 24, boosted in the inside of this pump stream 41.And, at this moment, because bleed air valve mechanism 111 (with reference to Fig. 3) is in out the valve state, be that air outlet 110 is in open state towards fuel tank, in addition, steam discharge valve mechanism 121 (with reference to Fig. 4) is in the valve state that closes, and promptly steam exhaust-gas mouth 120 is in closed condition towards fuel tank, so boosted air is only discharged from air outlet 110 (with reference to Fig. 2).Discharge by this air that boosts, near fuel suction port 40, produce negative pressure, the inner air of the suction pipe 102 that is connected with fuel suction port 40 also is sucked in the pump stream 41, its result, be sucked into the pump stream 41 from fuel suction port 40 through the fuel 100 in suction pipe 102 and the fuel tank, as hereinbefore, bear the kinetic energy of each blade of impeller 24, boosted in the inside of pump stream 41.
If the fuel of pump stream 41 inside begins to boost, then the bleed air valve mechanism 111 of Fig. 3 is immediately from opening the valve state exchange to closing the valve state, and in addition, the steam discharge valve mechanism 121 of Fig. 4 is immediately from closing the valve state exchange to opening the valve state.Specifically, utilization increases because of the load that the proportion difference of air and fuel causes, the contractile force of valve member 113 antagonistic springs 114 of bleed air valve mechanism 111, fall to being positioned on the valve base part 112 and with through hole 115 sealings, in addition, the pretightening force of valve member 123 antagonistic springs 125 of steam discharge valve mechanism 121 is left and steam outlet 120 is opened from valve seat 122.By air outlet 110 is closed, suppress unnecessary fuel and discharge from this air outlet 110, in addition,, the steam that produces under the higher state of fuel pressure is discharged to fuel tank by steam outlet 120 is opened.Like this, boosted fuel in pump stream 41, force feed around armature 32, are discharged to motor E from fuel discharge outlet 43 to fuel chambers 31 shown in Figure 1.In addition, as shown in Figure 1, accommodate safety check 44 in fuel discharge outlet 43, for example, when motor E stopped, the pressure by safety check 44 keeps in the pipe arrangement of motor E made the startability of motor good.
Thus, spring parameter by setting spring 114 and 125, thereby beginning with boosting of fuel is the boundary, the bleed air valve mechanism 111 that is in out the valve state before making it to close the valve state exchange, make in addition be in close the valve state steam discharge valve mechanism 121 to opening the valve state exchange, at first, when the fuel when comprising the petrolift low speed rotation pressurizes, owing to all the time air outlet 110 is closed, can prevent that fuel from flowing out, so the fuel spray volume can not reduce.Secondly, owing under the fuel pressurized state, steam outlet 120 is opened, the steam that prevents to produce is to the ejection of motor E side, so can obtain to guarantee exactly the effect of the fuel injection amount of nozzle.In addition, on the basis of this effect, because till the boosting of aforementioned fuel, steam outlet 120 is all closed, so can prevent the negative pressure of fuel suction port 40 descends, simultaneously for the pump stream 41 in an about week case member 200 in, owing to can utilize from fuel suction port 40 to air outlet 110 roughly whole path as the pressurization stream of length, so can increase the negative pressure of fuel suction port 40.Increase by this negative pressure, the fuel of the target that the performance that can improve becomes petrolift 10 improves picks up height (shown in Figure 1 from level of fuel to fuel suction port 40 size h), especially, can expect to improve and comprise fuel tank in interior layout design degrees of freedom.
In present embodiment 1, pick up height, be the raising of fuel inlet capacity in order to confirm this fuel, according to Fig. 5 (a) result who measures with Comparative Examples is described.The fuel that the fuel of 5 (a) expression present embodiment 1 picks up characteristic C1 and Comparative Examples picks up characteristic C2, and transverse axis is represented fuel pick-up time (sec), and the longitudinal axis represents that fuel picks up height (mm).In addition, Comparative Examples is to make air outlet 110 normally closed, and steam outlet 120 is often opened.That is, the pressurization stream of present embodiment 1 becomes from fuel suction port 40 to air outlet the roughly whole path of 110 pump path 41 as previously mentioned, and is relative with it, and the pressurization stream of this Comparative Examples shortens to from fuel suction port 40 to air outlet 120.Compare if these fuel are picked up characteristic C1, C2, then for example under the fuel pick-up time is 4 seconds situation, present embodiment 1 has the fuel about 2 times with respect to Comparative Examples and picks up height.Acting as a fuel picks up characteristic C1, more from the lower right (that is, the time is long and highly low) of chart to upper left side (that is, the time is short and highly high), its fuel picks up ability, it is high more with respect to the ratio of fuel pick-up time to be that fuel picks up height.Therefore as can be known, present embodiment 1 is with respect to Comparative Examples, and its fuel inlet capacity is higher.The pump chamber Pressure characteristics P1 of Fig. 5 (b) expression mode of execution 1 and the pump chamber Pressure characteristics P2 of Comparative Examples, transverse axis is represented the length of the pressurization path of pump path 41, the longitudinal axis is represented the pump intraventricular pressure in the pump path 41.Arrow P a, Pb, Pc represent the position of fuel suction port 40, the position of steam outlet 120, the position of air outlet 110 respectively.In the transverse axis position of Fig. 5 (b), the pump intraventricular pressure of the longitudinal axis is barometric pressure Pat, and this pump intraventricular pressure is from X below and negative pressure becomes big.Negative pressure on the Pa of the position of fuel suction port 40 is negative pressure Pn1, and is negative pressure Pn2 that negative pressure Pn1 is greater than negative pressure Pn2 in Comparative Examples in present embodiment 1.Utilize present embodiment 1 can improve the fuel inlet capacity, just because of in pump chamber Pressure characteristics P1, the pressurization stream is long more, the starting point of this pressurization stream, is that the negative pressure of fuel suction port 40 is big more under the situation of present embodiment 1.
As described above,, must fully guarantee the stream that pressurizes, therefore, in present embodiment 1, the valve of opening that closes valve and steam discharge valve mechanism 121 of bleed air valve mechanism 111 roughly side by side be carried out in order to improve the fuel inlet capacity.And preferably the spring parameter with two springs 114,125 is set at, make and do not influence the degree of the fuel spray volume of nozzle with steam to the ejection of motor E side,, postpone a little and carry out the valve of opening of steam discharge valve mechanism 121 from opening the valve state after closing the valve state exchange in bleed air valve mechanism 111.In addition, air outlet 110 and bleed air valve mechanism 111, as long as on the following stream in more downstream side of the pump stream 41 that becomes the pressurization stream, and on the fuel flow path of the upstream side of safety check 44, whatsoever the position can obtain same effect.But, follow air to enlarge at terminal part 54 to the detention space between the air outlet from pump stream 41, the air volume that discharge increases, thus the fuel pick-up time can increase.As long as the quality of this increase is according to the position in the fuel tank of this petrolift etc. suitably judging.
No matter which position this air outlet 110 is disposed on, the pressure loss the when size of its aperture d (with reference to Fig. 3) all must make air through this air outlet 110 can not have problems.Fig. 6 represents the pressure loss characteristic PL of air outlet 110, and transverse axis is represented the aperture (mm) of air outlet 110, the longitudinal axis represent air by the time the pressure loss (kPa).According to Fig. 6, if since the aperture more than or equal to 0.3mm, then air becomes about 0 (kPa) through the out-of-date pressure loss, so the aperture d of preferred air outlet 110 is more than or equal to 0.3mm.Its result, the resistance force diminishes of inhaled air when fuel tank is discharged during owing to pump startup can shorten the time that air is discharged, and supplies power to the time that fuel begins to boost so can shorten from beginning to petrolift, i.e. the fuel pick-up time.In addition, the shape of air outlet 110 for example is circular, but needs not to be circular, as long as aperture d is scaled s 〉=0.07mm behind the flow path area s 2, arbitrary shape all can.
In addition, though the upper limit for the aperture d of air outlet 110 is not mentioned, but generally be made as the value after the sectional area that is less than or equal to pump stream 41 is scaled aperture d, but, if consider the situation of not closing valve just in case bleed air valve mechanism 111 breaks down, even fuel is discharged from air outlet 110 when then carrying out the fuel pressurization in pump stream 41, also must guarantee fuel spray volume to motor.That is aperture d that, must setting air exhaust port 110 is so that be no more than petrolift fuel spray volume originally from the fuel discharge flow rate of air outlet 110.Fig. 7 represents the fuel discharge characteristic FE of air outlet 110, and transverse axis is represented the aperture (mm) of air outlet 110, and the longitudinal axis is represented the discharge flow rate (L/h) of fuel.According to Fig. 7, for example, at petrolift fuel spray volume originally is under the situation of 80 (L/h), because if the aperture d of air outlet 110 is 1.0 (mm), then the fuel discharge flow rate from air outlet 110 is 80 (L/h), so be about 0 to the motor fuel spray volume, if be less than or equal to 0.8 (mm) but the aperture d of air outlet 110 is set at, then the fuel discharge flow rate from air outlet 110 is less than or equal to 80 (L/h), can keep to motor and supply with necessary MIN fuel.
Mode of execution 2
Fig. 8 is the sectional drawing of the air exhaust port part in the mode of execution 2 of petrolift of the present invention.This Fig. 8 is the suitable sectional drawing of Fig. 3 of expression air outlet part mode of execution 2 and mode of execution 1.Additional air inlet prevents that the valve system 130, (Fig. 3) is identical in fact with mode of execution 1 on 110 because this mode of execution 2 is except discharging at air, so prevent that with this air inlet valve system 130 from being that the center describes.
In Fig. 8, at the outlet side of bleed air valve mechanism 111, be that the downside configuration air inlet of the bleed air valve mechanism 111 among Fig. 8 prevents valve system 130, it prevents that by being fixed in the air inlet that air inlet on the valve base part 112 prevents valve base part 131 and have a umbrella shape shape valve member 132 from constituting.Air inlet prevents that valve base part 131 from for example adopting resin forming, is formed with: valve member retaining hole 133, and portion inserts fixedly air inlet and prevents valve member 132 in the central; Passage portion 134, it becomes the air drain passageway; And sealed department 135, it carries out and air inlet prevents sealing between the valve member 132.On the other hand, air inlet prevents that valve member 132 by elastomer formations such as rubber, has: umbrella portion 136, its have and sealed department 135 between the sealing function; Axial region 137, it inserts in the valve member retaining hole 133; And abjunction preventing part 138, it prevents to come off from valve member retaining hole 133.That is, as shown in the figure, be fixed in the valve member retaining hole 133 if abjunction preventing part 138 is run through, then umbrella portion 136 is close to sealed department 135 and with passage portion 134 obturations.In addition, air inlet prevents that valve base part 131 from also can form with valve base part 112.
Below action is described, when petrolift starts,, prevent valve system 130 so the air in the pump stream 41 arrives air inlet from air outlet 110 because bleed air valve mechanism 111 drives valve.Pressure when this air is discharged is easily pushed umbrella portion 136 open, its result, and air from passage portion 134 and mode of execution 1 is similarly discharged to petrolift.Therefore, air inlet prevents the air discharge function that valve system 130 does not hinder bleed air valve mechanism 111 to be had.
On the other hand, when petrolift stopped, the inner fuel of suction pipe 102 (with reference to Fig. 1) can fall to the interior level of fuel height of fuel tank owing to deadweight, accompanies with it, on the contrary, air can flow to pump stream 41 via air outlet 110 when starting with petrolift.Therefore, prevent in the mode of execution 1 of valve system 130 not having air inlet, from Fig. 3 also as can be known, bleed air valve mechanism 111 drives valve owing to follow petrolift to stop, so air flows to pump stream 41 by through hole 115 and air outlet 100, accompany with it, the fuel of suction pipe 102 inside falls to level of fuel.Therefore, when petrolift started once more, petrolift 10 must pick up fuel to fuel suction port 40 from the level of fuel in the fuel tank once more, with this fuel pick-up time part accordingly, fuel boosts and must postpone.
In present embodiment 2, because air inlet prevents valve member 132 with sealed department 135 sealings, so after pump stopped, air can not flow into to pump stream 41 from air outlet 110 yet, so the state that fuel is full of can be kept in the inside of pump stream 41 and suction pipe 102.That is, utilize the air inlet of umbrella to prevent valve member 132, in Fig. 8, air is pushed umbrella portion 136 open from the top down and is flowed, but from bottom to top, because sealed department 135 is by 136 sealings of umbrella portion, so air does not flow.Prevent valve system 130 by increasing this air inlet, can realize the effect described in the mode of execution 1, simultaneously further, when petrolift starts once more, can begin fuel immediately and boost, thereby can expect to improve the startability of motor.
Industrial applicibility
Petrolift of the present invention can be used for the fuel feed system in the vehicles such as automobile.
