Abstract

Proposed is a pump with an impeller (1) which is securely mounted by its boss (3) on a shaft (4) so that it cannot rotate. The rear (driven) edges of the impeller rotate, leaving a narrow clearance (a), over the rear wall (5) of the pump housing. Together with the impeller (1), this wall forms a labyrinth gap (6) which connects the pump chamber (2') with a hollow space (7) in the boss. Connected in this hollow space (7) to the impeller (1) so that it cannot rotate is a coaxial flywheel designed to impart a vigorous rotational motion to the liquid in the hollow space (7) and hence force it out of the space. The space (7) has a peripheral opening (12) to allow the liquid to pass out. The air which collects near the shaft (4) escapes through a gap (10) between the boss-housing wall (20) and the shaft (4). The peripheral opening (12) is located in the boss-housing wall (20) and designed as a propulsion nozzle. It opens out into a space (11) adjacent to the hollow space (7) in the boss and connected to it by the gap (10), the nozzle pointing towards a diffusion tube (13) and forming a jet pump (12, 13) through which the liquid emerging from the hollow space (7) in the boss flows.

Description

KreiselpumpeCentrifugal pump
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Kreiselpumpe gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a centrifugal pump according to the preamble of claim 1.
Eine Kreiselpumpe dieser Art ist beispielsweise in der EP-PS 114 932 beschrieben.A centrifugal pump of this type is described for example in EP-PS 114 932.
Die vorliegende Erfindung stellt sich die Aufgabe, bei einer Pumpe der genannten Art die Trennung von Gas und Flüssigkeit zu verbessern.The object of the present invention is to improve the separation of gas and liquid in a pump of the type mentioned.
Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch die kenn¬ zeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.
Die im Pumpenraum örtlich auftretenden Überdrucke haben je nach Laufradkonfiguration unterschiedliche Höhe und bewirken entsprechend unterschiedliche Flüssigkeit-Gaszusammensetzun¬ gen. Die Erfindung zielt darauf, die Trennung von Flüssig- keit und Gas gegenüber dem genannten Stand der Technik - unabhängig von der Laufradkonfiguration - zu verbessern.The overpressures occurring locally in the pump chamber have different heights depending on the impeller configuration and accordingly result in different liquid-gas compositions. The aim of the invention is to improve the separation of liquid and gas compared to the prior art mentioned - regardless of the impeller configuration.
Die Flügel des mit dem Laufrad drehfest verbundenen, ko- achsialen Flügelrads oder die radialsymmetrisch an der Lauf- radnabe befestigten Flügel erfassen das in den Nabenraum tretende Medium und versetzen es in eine intensive Rotation. Das hat zur Folge, dass die Trennung von Gas und Flüssigkeit eindeutiger wird, weil das Gas am kleinsten Durchmesser (am Wellenspalt) den Nabenraum verlassen kann. Das Gas verlässt den Nabenraum bevor es sich wieder mit der Flüssigkeit mischt und durch die ungleichen Druckverhältnisse im Laby¬ rinthspalt zum Laufradkanal zurückgelangen kann. Die sepa¬ rierte Flüssigkeit anderseits erhält einen höheren Druck und wird durch die Düse einer Flüssigkeitsstrahlpumpe ausgetrie- ben. Der vom Flüssigkeitsstrahl erzeugte Unterdruck wird zur Wegschaffung der separierten Gase nutzbar gemacht. Das aus der Flüssigkeitsstrahlpumpe austretende Gasflüssigkeits¬ gemisch kann in einen Gasabscheider bekannter Bauart gelei¬ tet werden, von wo die Flüssigkeit in die Pumpensaugleitung zurückgeführt wird.The vanes of the coaxial axial impeller, which is non-rotatably connected to the impeller, or the vanes attached radially symmetrically to the impeller hub capture the medium entering the hub space and set it in intensive rotation. As a result, the separation of gas and liquid becomes clearer because the gas with the smallest diameter (at the shaft gap) can leave the hub space. The gas leaves the hub space before it mixes with the liquid again and can return to the impeller channel due to the uneven pressure conditions in the labyrinth gap. On the other hand, the separated liquid receives a higher pressure and is expelled through the nozzle of a liquid jet pump. The negative pressure generated by the liquid jet is used to remove the separated gases. The end The gas-liquid mixture emerging from the liquid jet pump can be passed into a gas separator of known design, from where the liquid is returned to the pump suction line.
Anhand der beiliegenden schematischen Zeichnung wird die Erfindung beispielsweise erläutert. Es zeigen:The invention is explained, for example, with the aid of the attached schematic drawing. Show it:
Fig. 1 einen Querschnitt durch eine Kreiselpumpe und Fig. 2 eine Ansicht der Kreiselpumpe in verkleinerter Darstellung.Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a centrifugal pump and Fig. 2 is a view of the centrifugal pump in a reduced view.
Die Kreiselpumpe ge äss Fig. 1 weist ein offenes, einschauf- liges Kreiselpumpenrad 1 auf und ist drehbar in einem Pumpengehäuse 2 gelagert. Das Kreiselpumpenrad 1 sitzt mit seiner Nabe 3 auf einer in einem Lager 19 gelagerten Welle 4 und dreht mit geringem Spiel "a" über der Gehäuserückwand 5, welche mit der Nabe 3 des Kreiselpumpenrades 1 einen Laby¬ rinthspalt 6 bildet. Der Labrinthspalt verbindet den Pumpen- räum 21 mit einem Nabenraum 7. Aus dem Fördergut im Laufrad- zentrum angesammeltes und mit Flüssigkeit vermischtes Gas tritt durch den Labyrinthspalt 6 aus dem Pumpenraum 2 ' in den Nabenraum 7, wo es durch drehfest mit der Nabe 3 verbundene Flügel 8 eine stärkere Drehbewegung erfährt. Die stärkere Drehbewegung des Gasflüssigkeitsgemisches bewirkt eine bessere Trennung zwischen Gas und Flüssigkeit, wobei allfällige Faserstoffe durch eine in einer Nabengehäusewand 20 angeordnete Spiralnute 9 von einem Wellenspalt 10 fern¬ gehalten wird, durch welchen die Gase in einen durch die Nabengehäusewand 20 vom Nabenraum 7 getrennten Raum 11 treten können. Während dessen strömt die Flüssigkeit unter höherem Druck aus dem Nabenraum 7 durch eine die Naben¬ gehäusewand 20 durchsetzende Treibdüse 12 in ein Diffusor- rohr 13 und reisst dabei das Gas aus dem Raum 11 mit. Eine an das Diffusorrohr 13 anschliessende Verbindungsleitung 14 (Fig. 2) führt das Gasflüssigkeitsgemisch in einen Gasab¬ scheider 15, der die Flüssigkeit an den saugseitigen Anschluss 16 der Kreiselpumpe zurückgibt und das Gas durch eine Leitung 17 in einen geeigneten Raum abführt. Eine Wellendichtung 18 schützt Antriebs- und Lagerelemente vor Berührung mit dem Fördergurt. The centrifugal pump according to FIG. 1 has an open, single-bladed centrifugal pump wheel 1 and is rotatably mounted in a pump housing 2. The centrifugal pump wheel 1 sits with its hub 3 on a shaft 4 mounted in a bearing 19 and rotates with little play "a" over the rear wall 5, which forms a labyrinth gap 6 with the hub 3 of the centrifugal pump wheel 1. The labyrinth gap connects the pump space 2 1 to a hub space 7. Gas which has been collected from the material to be conveyed in the impeller center and mixed with liquid passes through the labyrinth gap 6 from the pump space 2 'into the hub space 7, where it is rotatably connected to the hub 3 connected wing 8 experiences a stronger rotary movement. The greater rotational movement of the gas-liquid mixture results in a better separation between gas and liquid, any fibers being kept away from a shaft gap 10 by a spiral groove 9 arranged in a hub housing wall 20, through which the gases are passed into a space separated from the hub space 7 by the hub housing wall 20 11 can kick. During this time, the liquid flows under higher pressure from the hub space 7 through a drive nozzle 12 passing through the hub housing wall 20 into a diffuser tube 13 and thereby entrains the gas from the space 11. A connecting line 14 (FIG. 2) connecting to the diffuser tube 13 leads the gas-liquid mixture into a gas separator 15, which separates the liquid from the suction side Returns connection 16 of the centrifugal pump and discharges the gas through a line 17 into a suitable space. A shaft seal 18 protects drive and bearing elements from contact with the conveyor belt.
