Definitions

  • the invention relates to a piston pump for delivering a cryogenic liquid with a pump cylinder made of a material with low thermal expansion and with a piston displaceable therein, on the peripheral surface of which piston rings made of a self-lubricating material are held, which has a greater thermal expansion than the material of the pump cylinder.
  • Piston pumps for pumping cryogenic liquids result in a number of problems due to the boiling state of the cryogenic liquids, their low temperatures and their low kinematic viscosity.
  • the low temperatures cause a very restricted choice of materials, there are shrinkage problems in particular with the piston-cylinder pairing, and the use of additive lubricants is not possible.
  • the user has to rely on self-lubricating piston-cylinder surfaces, usually sealing by means of piston rings on the pistons with self-lubricating properties, for example with piston rings made of PTFE, PTFE-carbon, PTFE-graphite or PTFE- Bronze.
  • a piston pump of the type described in the introduction in that the piston has a core made of a material with relatively high thermal expansion, which is surrounded by a sleeve made of a material with low thermal expansion, that the core protrudes from the sleeve on both sides and has conically widening expansion regions towards its free ends and that the piston rings surround the core in the expansion regions and are supported on the end faces of the sleeve.
  • the core of the piston contracts more strongly than the surrounding sleeve during cooling in the axial direction, so that the piston rings are displaced in the axial direction into regions of larger diameter during cooling on the conical expansion regions of the core.
  • the dimensions can be chosen so that this expansion of the piston rings through the expansion areas of the core compensates for the shrinkage of the piston rings to such an extent that the resulting shrinkage of the piston rings corresponds to the shrinkage of the pump cylinder dimensions.
  • the piston rings bear directly against the conical extensions of the core, that is to say they shift in the axial direction on cooling on the core.
  • the core consists of two parts connected to one another inside the sleeve; this simplifies the assembly of the piston.
  • the expansion areas of the core are surrounded by a bearing ring which is divided into segments by radial incisions, so that the bearing ring can expand in the radial direction in the event of an axial displacement on the conical expansion area, so that the Bearing ring is supported on the end face of the sleeve and that the piston ring surrounds the bearing ring and is held on it.
  • the bearing ring is thus initially expanded upon cooling, which then transmits its expansion to the piston ring surrounding it.
  • the bearing ring rests with a conical surface on the conical surface of the expansion area of the core, the cones is essentially the same in both cases.
  • the expansion area of the core is plugged onto the core at least at one end and can be detached therewith. This also facilitates the assembly of the piston.
  • the expansion areas preferably have axially projecting flanges which serve as an axial stop for the piston ring.
  • the piston 1 of the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises an elongated, rotationally symmetrical core which essentially consists of a cylindrical shaft 3 and an expansion region 5 which widens conically at one end 4.
  • the expansion area 5 is delimited by a radially projecting flange 6.
  • a receiving opening 7 for inserting a hexagon key is machined into the end face of the core 2.
  • the shaft is provided with an external thread 9 and screwed into a coupling piece 10, which rod 11 is connected to an oscillating driven stroke and train.
  • the shaft 3 is fixed in the coupling piece by a grub screw 12 screwed radially into the coupling piece 10.
  • a first bearing ring 13, a spacer sleeve 14, a second bearing ring 15 and an expansion part 16 are placed one after the other on the core 2; these parts are fixed on the core by a nut 17 screwed onto the external thread 9.
  • the two bearing rings 13, 15 have conically widening inner surfaces 18, the taper of which essentially corresponds to the taper of the expansion region 5 or of the expansion part 16.
  • the inner surfaces 18 lie flat against the expansion area 5 or the expansion part 16.
  • Both bearing rings each have radial incisions 19 offset by 120 ° in the circumferential direction (FIG. 2), so that the bearing rings 13 and 15 can be expanded or compressed in the radial direction in the manner of collets.
  • the circumferential surfaces 22 and 23 of the bearing rings 13 and 15 are circular cylindrical, they end on the mutually facing side of the two bearing rings in a radially outwardly projecting annular shoulder 20 and 21, respectively.
  • the circumference of the circumferential surface 22 is smaller than the circumference of the flange 6 of core 2.
  • the expansion part 16 is designed as a ring with a conically widening contact surface 24 which ends in a flange 25 which projects radially outwards.
  • the circumference of the flange 25 is larger than the circumference of the circumferential surface 23 of the bearing ring 15.
  • Both bearing rings 13 and 15 dip into the spacer sleeve 14, the ring shoulders 20 and 21 of the two bearing rings are supported on the end faces 26 and 27 of the spacer sleeve 14.
  • a piston ring 28 and 29 is mounted, which also encompasses the flange 6 and the flange 25, respectively.
  • Both piston rings have a recess on the inside in the area of these flanges, so that the piston rings are fixed in the axial direction in the area between the flanges 6 and 25 on the one hand and the ring shoulders 20 and 21 on the other hand.
  • the outer surfaces 30 and 31 of the two piston rings 28 and 29 are circular cylindrical and lie sealingly on the inner wall of a pump cylinder 32 shown in dash-dotted lines in the drawing.
  • the choice of material is such that the spacer sleeve has the smallest thermal expansion, the piston rings the greatest thermal expansion and the core has thermal expansion between that of the spacer sleeve and that of the piston rings.
  • the piston rings are made, for example, of PTFE, PTFE carbon, PTFE graphite, PTFE bronze or brass, the spacer sleeve made of Fe Ni 36 steel (In 36), the core made of austenitic cold-tough steel, aluminum, titanium or bronze.
  • the core 2 contracts more strongly than the spacer sleeve 14 when cooling in the axial direction, so that the expansion area 5 and the expansion part 16 of the core 2 when cooling into the bearing rings 13 and 15 pulls in and thereby expands them. At the same time, this also leads to an expansion of the piston rings 28 and 29 resting on the bearing rings.
  • the piston shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 can be assembled in a simple manner. For this it is sufficient to place the bearing ring 13 with the piston ring 28 thereon, the spacer sleeve 14, the bearing ring 15 with the piston ring 29 thereon and the expansion part 16 on the core 2 in succession and then to fix these parts with the nut 17 on the core 2 .
  • the piston assembled in this way can then be screwed into the coupling piece 10 and fixed there.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 corresponding parts are designated by the same reference numerals.
  • the pump cylinder is not shown in the drawing.
  • the core 2 in this embodiment consists of two parts 40, 41, which have a threaded bore 42 or a threaded pin 43 in the interior of the surrounding spacer sleeve 14, so that the two parts can be screwed together.
  • Both parts 40 and 41 have, at their ends 4 protruding from the spacer sleeve 14, a conically widening widening area 44 or 45, widening area 44 corresponding to widening area 5 in the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the two piston rings 28 and 29 are fitted directly onto the expansion regions 44 and 45, so that the bearing rings 13 and 15 are missing in this exemplary embodiment.
  • Both piston rings 28 and 29 are supported with the mutually facing side surfaces 46 and 47 on the end surfaces 26 and 27 of the spacer sleeve 14.
  • the core 2 When cooling, the core 2 shortens in the axial direction more than the spacer sleeve 14, so that the piston rings 28 and 29 are moved to the ends of the core 2 and thereby widened.
  • an exact adaptation of the circumference of the outer surfaces 30 and 31 to the pump cylinder can be achieved by suitable dimensions and a suitable combination of the thermal expansion coefficients.
