Abstract

PCT No. PCT/EP89/00659 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 21, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 21, 1990 PCT Filed Jun. 12, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO89/12751 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 28, 1989.A multi-stage vacuum pump installation having an oil-lubricated or dry-running mechanical displacement pump located in the atmospheric stage. The oil-lubricated or dry-running pump is preceded on the vacuum side by at least one additional pump which is a side channel compressor pump (or gas ring pump). A side channel compressor pump located upstream of the oil-lubricated or dry-running pump reduces oil consumption and at the same time improves efficiency of the installation.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein mehrstufiges Vakuumpumpenaggregat, bei dem in der letzten, atmosphärischen Stufe eine ölgeschmier­te oder trockenlaufende mechanische Verdrängerpumpe vorgesehen und dieser vakuumseitig mindestens eine weitere Pumpe vorge­schaltet ist.The invention relates to a multi-stage vacuum pump unit in which an oil-lubricated or dry-running mechanical displacement pump is provided in the last, atmospheric stage and this is preceded by at least one further pump on the vacuum side.

Mechanische Verdrängerpumpen gelten als Vakuumpumpen mit dem besten Wirkungsgrad im gesamten Vakuumbereich. Daher ist es be­kannt (DE-OS 35 45 982; DE-GM 84 27 615), bei einem mehrstufi­gen Vakuumpumpenaggregat mehrere Drehschieberpumpen hinterein­ander zu schalten. Derartige Pumpen benötigen in der Regel als Schmier- und Abdichtmedium Öl, das in allen Verdichterstufen ständig frisch zugeführt wird. Wenn die zugeführten Mengen auch relativ klein sind, so bedeutet die ständige oder gezielte Zu­fuhr von frischem Öl doch eine nicht unerhebliche Kostenbela­stung. Außerdem muß das verbrauchte Öl mittels gesonderter Ab­scheider wieder aus dem geförderten Medium abgeschieden und schließlich beseitigt werden.Mechanical positive displacement pumps are considered to be vacuum pumps with the best efficiency in the entire vacuum range. It is therefore known (DE-OS 35 45 982; DE-GM 84 27 615) to connect several rotary vane pumps in a row in a multi-stage vacuum pump unit. Pumps of this type generally require oil as the lubricant and sealing medium, which is constantly freshly supplied in all compressor stages. Even if the quantities supplied are relatively small, the constant or targeted supply of fresh oil means a not inconsiderable cost burden. In addition, the used oil must be separated from the pumped medium by means of a separate separator and finally removed.

Es ist ferner bekannt (Sonderdruck "Auswahlkriterien für Pumpen zum Erzeugen von Vakuum" aus der Zeitschrift "Maschinenmarkt" Vogel-Verlag Würzburg, 88 JG., Heft 17 vom 02.03.1982), einer Drehschieberpumpe eine Wälzkolbenpumpe vorzuschalten. Bekannter­weise zeichnen sich Wälzkolbenpumpen wegen der berührungsfreien Rotation ihrer Wälzkolben gegenüber anderen mechanischen Vakuum­pumpen durch einen hervorragenden Wirkungsgrad aus. Somit läßt sich bei einem mehrstufigen Vakuumpumpenaggregat durch Vorschal­ten einer Wälzkolbenpumpe eine Verbesserung des Gesamtwirkungs­grades erreichen. Dies gilt jedoch nur bei Druckdifferenzen der Wälzkolbenpumpe von kleiner 50 mbar. Die vielen engen Spalte dieser Pumpe lassen größere Druckdifferenzen nicht zu, denn die mit höheren Druckdifferenzen verbundene stärkere Erwärmung ruft Wärmedehnungen hervor, die infolge der engen Spalte leicht zum Verklemmen der Wälzkolben führen können.It is also known (special print "Selection criteria for pumps for generating vacuum" from the magazine "Maschinenmarkt" Vogel-Verlag Würzburg, 88 JG., Issue 17 of 02.03.1982) to connect a Roots pump to a rotary vane pump. As is known, Roots pumps are characterized by an excellent efficiency due to the contact-free rotation of their Roots compared to other mechanical vacuum pumps. Thus, in a multi-stage vacuum pump unit, an overall efficiency can be improved by connecting a Roots pump. However, this only applies to pressure differences Roots pump of less than 50 mbar. The many narrow gaps of this pump do not allow larger pressure differences, because the greater heating associated with higher pressure differences causes thermal expansions which, due to the narrow gaps, can easily cause the roots to jam.

Eine größere Druckdifferenz ließe sich ohne die genannte Gefahr des Verklemmens durch eine intensive Kühlung oder durch die Hintereinanderschaltung mehrerer Wälzkolbenpumpen erzielen. Der Bauaufwand und im Betrieb dann der Wartungsaufwand für solche Lösungen wäre jedoch unverhältnismäßig hoch. Außerdem leidet die Betriebssicherheit.A greater pressure difference could be achieved without the aforementioned risk of jamming through intensive cooling or by connecting several Roots pumps in series. The construction effort and then the maintenance effort for such solutions would be disproportionately high. Operational safety also suffers.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein mehrstufiges Vakuumpumpenaggregat der eingangs beschriebenen Art so weiter­zubilden, daß einerseits der Ölverbrauch und damit die ver­schmutzte Ölmenge wesentlich reduziert ist und andererseits der Wirkungsgrad gegenüber bekannten mehrstufigen Vakuumpumpen­aggregaten noch verbessert ist.The invention has for its object to develop a multi-stage vacuum pump unit of the type described in such a way that on the one hand the oil consumption and thus the contaminated oil quantity is significantly reduced and on the other hand the efficiency compared to known multi-stage vacuum pump units is still improved.

Die Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe gelingt nach der Erfindung dadurch, daß die vorgeschaltete Pumpe eine Gasringpumpe ist. Obwohl der Wirkungsgrad einer Gasringpumpe etwa nur halb so hoch wie der Wirkungsgrad einer Wälzkolbenpumpe ist, wurde durch Versuche nachgewiesen, daß durch den Einsatz einer Gas­ringpumpe bei einem mehrstufigen Vakuumpumpenaggregat sowohl der Energiebedarf als auch der Kostenaufwand wesentlich vermin­dert werden können, wobei keine Einbußen im Hinblick auf die Be­triebssicherheit des Aggregates hingenommen werden müssen. Da Gasringpumpen im Verdichterraum ölfrei arbeiten, entfällt die ansonsten beim Einsatz einer mechanischen Verdrängerpumpe not­wendige Ölmenge vollständig. Wegen des mit einer Gasringpumpe erzielbaren höheren Druckverhältnisses ergibt sich eine Verklei­nerung der Baugröße der nachgeschalteten Verdrängerpumpe. Klei­nere Baugrößen dieser Pumpen erfordern auch geringere Schmier­ölmengen, außerdem sinkt der Leistungsbedarf.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the upstream pump is a gas ring pump. Although the efficiency of a gas ring pump is only half as high as the efficiency of a Roots pump, tests have shown that the use of a gas ring pump in a multi-stage vacuum pump unit can significantly reduce both the energy requirement and the cost, with no losses in terms of the operational safety of the unit must be accepted. Since gas ring pumps work oil-free in the compressor chamber, the amount of oil otherwise required when using a mechanical displacement pump is completely eliminated. Because of the higher pressure ratio that can be achieved with a gas ring pump, the size of the downstream positive displacement pump is reduced. Smaller sizes of these pumps also require less lubricating oil, and the power requirement also decreases.

Zur Verminderung der Schmierölmenge trägt auch eine entspre­chende Kühlung des durch die Gasringpumpe verdichteten Mediums oder der Gasringpumpe selbst bei.Appropriate cooling of the medium compressed by the gas ring pump or the gas ring pump itself also contributes to reducing the amount of lubricating oil.

Eine weitere, sehr wirksame Kühlung der Gasringpumpe wird da­durch erreicht, daß an ihrem Gehäuse Kühlkanäle für eine Mantel­kühlung vorgesehen und diese Kühlkanäle an einen Kühlmittelkreis angeschlossen sind. Dadurch, daß die Gasringpumpe an den Kühl­mittelkreislauf der Drehschieberpumpe angeschlossen ist, kommt man mit einem einzigen Kühler bzw. Wärmetauscher für das Aggre­gat aus.A further, very effective cooling of the gas ring pump is achieved in that cooling ducts for jacket cooling are provided on its housing and these cooling ducts are connected to a coolant circuit. Because the gas ring pump is connected to the coolant circuit of the rotary vane pump, a single cooler or heat exchanger for the unit is sufficient.

Eine wesentliche Platz- und Materialersparnis wird dadurch er­zielt, daß die Kühlmittelwege von Gasring- und Drehschieber­pumpe konstruktiv direkt miteinander verbunden sind.A significant space and material saving is achieved in that the coolant paths of the gas ring and rotary vane pumps are directly connected to one another in terms of construction.

Durch die Zuordnung je eines eigenen, gegebenenfalls drehzahl­regelbaren Antriebsmotors kann die Drehzahl jeder Pumpe optimal den jeweils vorliegenden Betriebsverhältnissen angepaßt werden. Bei der Verwendung nur eines Antriebsmotors für beide Pumpen lassen sich die für eine optimale Anpassung beider Pumpen ge­gebenenfalls notwendigen unterschiedlichen Drehzahlen dadurch erreichen, daß eine der beiden Pumpen mit dem Antriebsmotor direkt und die andere über einen Riementrieb oder ein Getriebe mit diesem gekuppelt ist.By assigning a separate, possibly speed-controllable drive motor, the speed of each pump can be optimally adapted to the prevailing operating conditions. If only one drive motor is used for both pumps, the different speeds that may be necessary for an optimal adaptation of both pumps can be achieved in that one of the two pumps is coupled to the drive motor directly and the other is coupled to the drive motor via a belt drive or a gear.

Anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispie­les wird der Anmeldungsgegenstand nachfolgend näher beschrieben.The subject of the application is described in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing.

Eine von einem eigenen Elektromotor 1 angetriebene Gasringpumpe 2 weist ein Ansaugrohr 3 auf, über das die Gasringpumpe 2 an einen in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellten, zu evakuierenden Be­hälter angeschlossen ist. Mit ihrem Auslaß 4 ist die Gasringpum­pe 2 über ein Verbindungsrohr 5 an die Einlaßöffnung 6 einer Drehschieberpumpe 7 angeschlossen. Durch diese Drehschieberpumpe 7 wird das durch die Gasringpumpe 2 vorverdichtete Medium weiter verdichtet und über die Auslaßöffnung 8 ausgestoßen.A gas ring pump 2 driven by its own electric motor 1 has an intake pipe 3, via which the gas ring pump 2 is connected to a container to be evacuated, which is not shown in the drawing. With its outlet 4, the gas ring pump 2 is connected via a connecting pipe 5 to the inlet opening 6 of a rotary vane pump 7. Through this rotary vane pump 7, the medium pre-compressed by the gas ring pump 2 is further compressed and expelled through the outlet opening 8.

Durch die Vorschaltung einer Gasringpumpe 2 vor eine Drehschie­berpumpe 7 kann die Baugröße der auf Atmosphäre verdichtenden Drehschieberpumpe infolge der Vorverdichtung durch die Gasring­pumpe erheblich kleiner gewählt werden, wodurch die anfallende Schmierölmenge gegenüber einem nur aus Drehschieberpumpen be­stehenden mehrstufigen Vakuumpumpenaggregat wesentlich reduziert wird. Da die Gasringpumpe 2 im Verdichtungsraum vollkommen öl­frei arbeitet, entfällt auch die ansonsten für die Vorstufe not­wendige Ölmenge. Außerdem läßt sich eine Gasringpumpe mit nur einer Welle und ohne Getriebe kostengünstig mehrstufig bauen, so daß eine große Druckdifferenz, d.h. hohe Vorverdichtung, erziel­bar ist. Wegen der gegenüber Wälzkolbenpumpen um das zwei- bis dreifache größeren Spalten ist eine Gasringpumpe wesentlich unempfindlicher, wobei durch die Aufteilung auf mehrere Stufen die Spaltverluste nicht höher oder sogar geringer sind. Ferner ist die Gasringpumpe aufgrund ihrer Wirkungsweise (frei rotie­rendes Laufrad) in der zulässigen Drehzahl nur durch die Art des für das Laufrad verwendeten Materials begrenzt. Bei mehr­stufiger Ausführung der Gasringpumpe läßt sich darüber hinaus eine besonders gute und intensive Kühlung infolge der im Ver­gleich zu einer Wälzkolbenpumpe größeren Oberfläche erzielen, was zu einer Verbesserung des Wirkungsgrades beiträgt.By connecting a gas ring pump 2 upstream of a rotary vane pump 7, the size of the rotary vane pump, which compresses to atmosphere, can be selected to be considerably smaller as a result of the precompression by the gas ring pump, as a result of which the amount of lubricating oil produced is significantly reduced compared to a multi-stage vacuum pump unit consisting only of rotary vane pumps. Since the gas ring pump 2 works completely oil-free in the compression chamber, the amount of oil otherwise required for the preliminary stage is also eliminated. In addition, a gas ring pump with only one shaft and without gear can be inexpensively built in multiple stages, so that a large pressure difference, i.e. high pre-compression, can be achieved. A gas ring pump is significantly less sensitive due to the fact that the gap is two to three times larger than Roots pumps, whereby the gap losses are not higher or even lower due to the division into several stages. Furthermore, due to its mode of operation (freely rotating impeller), the gas ring pump is only limited in the permissible speed by the type of material used for the impeller. With a multi-stage version of the gas ring pump, particularly good and intensive cooling can be achieved due to the larger surface area compared to a Roots pump, which contributes to an improvement in efficiency.

Es wurde ferner festgestellt, daß bei Ansaugdrücken unter 20 mbar der Leistungs- und Kühlwasserbedarf der Gasringpumpe erheblich sinkt.It was also found that the power and cooling water requirement of the gas ring pump drops considerably at intake pressures below 20 mbar.

Zur weiteren Verminderung der in der nachgeschalteten Drehschie­ber pumpe 7 anfallenden Schmierölmenge ist es vorteilhaft, mit einer Kühlung des durch die Gasringpumpe 2 geförderten Mediums zu arbeiten. Es besteht die Möglichkeit, zwischen der Gasring­pumpe 2 und der Drehschieberpumpe 7 einen Zwischenkühler 9 an­ zuordnen, durch den das geförderte, vorverdichtete Medium ge­kühlt wird.To further reduce the amount of lubricating oil occurring in the downstream rotary valve 7, it is advantageous to work with a cooling of the medium conveyed by the gas ring pump 2. There is the possibility of an intercooler 9 between the gas ring pump 2 and the rotary vane pump 7 assign by which the pumped, pre-compressed medium is cooled.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Kühlmöglichkeit stellt eine Einspritz­kühlung dar. Hierbei wird ein Kühlmittel in die Gasringpumpe 2 eingespritzt. Durch die Kühlung wird das von der nachgeschalte­ten Drehschieberpumpe 7 zu bewältigende Volumen des zu verdich­tetenden Mediums vermindert, so daß die nachgeschaltete Dreh­schieberpumpe 7 entsprechend kleiner ausgelegt werden kann.Injection cooling is another advantageous cooling option. Here, a coolant is injected into the gas ring pump 2. The cooling of the volume of the medium to be compressed, which can be handled by the downstream rotary vane pump 7, is reduced, so that the downstream rotary vane pump 7 can be designed correspondingly smaller.

Eine sehr intensive Kühlung des zu verdichtenden Mediums wird durch eine Mantelkühlung der Gasringpumpe 2 erreicht. Hierzu sind an dem Gehäuse der Gasringpumpe 2 Kühlkanäle 10 ausgebil­det, die von einer Kühlflüssigkeit durchströmt werden. Ober Rohre 12 sind die Kühlkanäle 10 der Gasringpumpe 2 mit einem ebenfalls von der Kühlflüssigkeit durchströmten Kühlmantel 11 der Drehschieberpumpe 7 verbunden. Über weitere Rohrleitungen 12a und 12b sind die Kühlkanäle 10 der Gasringpumpe 2 mit dem einen Anschluß eines Kühlers 13 und der Kühlmantel 11 der Dreh­schieberpumpe 7 mit dem anderen Anschluß des Kühlers 13 verbun­den. Der Kühler 13 besitzt einen über einen Elektromotor 14 an­getriebenen Ventilator 15. Im Zuge der Rohrleitungen 12a bzw. 12b kann eine Umwälzpumpe 16 angeordnet werden.A very intensive cooling of the medium to be compressed is achieved by jacket cooling of the gas ring pump 2. For this purpose, cooling channels 10 are formed on the housing of the gas ring pump 2, through which a cooling liquid flows. The cooling ducts 10 of the gas ring pump 2 are connected via pipes 12 to a cooling jacket 11 of the rotary vane pump 7 which also has the cooling liquid flowing through it. The cooling ducts 10 of the gas ring pump 2 are connected to one connection of a cooler 13 and the cooling jacket 11 of the rotary vane pump 7 to the other connection of the cooler 13 via further pipelines 12a and 12b. The cooler 13 has a fan 15 which is driven by an electric motor 14. A circulation pump 16 can be arranged in the course of the pipes 12a or 12b.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel ist eine Reihenschaltung der Kühl­mittelkreise der beiden Pumpen 2 und 7 dargestellt. Es ist auch eine Parallelschaltung dieser Kühlkreise möglich. In beiden Fällen kommt man mit einem Kühler für die beiden Pumpen 2 und 7 aus, so daß der Bauaufwand kleingehalten wird.In the exemplary embodiment, a series connection of the coolant circuits of the two pumps 2 and 7 is shown. A parallel connection of these cooling circuits is also possible. In both cases, a cooler for the two pumps 2 and 7 is sufficient, so that the construction work is kept to a minimum.

Bei einer Mantelkühlung der Gasringpumpe 2 kann auf den Zwi­schenkühler 9 verzichtet werden. Eine Verminderung des Material­aufwandes ist auch dadurch möglich, daß die Drehschieberpumpe 7 mit ihrer Einlaßöffnung 6 direkt an den Auslaß der Gasring­pumpe 2 angeschlossen wird. Dies ergibt außerdem eine gedrängte Bauweise des Verdichteraggregates.In the case of jacket cooling of the gas ring pump 2, the intercooler 9 can be omitted. A reduction in the cost of materials is also possible in that the rotary vane pump 7 is connected directly to the outlet of the gas ring pump 2 with its inlet opening 6. This also results in a compact design of the compressor unit.

Die Ausrüstung jeder der beiden Pumpen 2 und 7 mit einem eigenen Antriebsmotor bietet die Möglichkeit einer optimalen Leistungs­steuerung, da jede Pumpe in ihrer Drehzahl so geregelt werden kann, daß sich optimale Verhältnisse einstellen. Bei der Gas­ringpumpe 2 wird ein optimaler Betrieb dadurch sichergestellt, daß die Drehzahl des ihr zugeordneten Elektromotors 1 so gere­gelt wird, daß die Stromaufnahme im gesamten Drehzahlbereich konstant bleibt.Equipping each of the two pumps 2 and 7 with its own drive motor offers the possibility of optimal power control, since each pump can be regulated in its speed so that optimal conditions arise. In the gas ring pump 2, optimal operation is ensured by regulating the speed of the electric motor 1 assigned to it so that the current consumption remains constant over the entire speed range.
