Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schneckenpumpe, wie sie z.B. zum Pumpen von pastösen Materialien, insbesondere Baumaterialien wie angemachte Putzmischungen o.dgl. eingesetzt wird, wie aus DE 86 09 300 U1 oder DE-OS 22 37 563 bekannt.The invention relates to a screw pump, as they e.g. for pumping pasty materials, in particular Building materials such as mixed plasters or the like. is used, as from DE 86 09 300 U1 or DE-OS 22 37 563 known.

Eine Schneckenpumpe weist zum Fördern des zu pumpenden Materials eine drehbar gelagerte und von einer Antriebsvorrichtung antreibbare Förderschnecke auf, die beim Transport des Materials dieses mit den zum Pumpen erforderlichen Druck beaufschlagt. Schneckenpumpen werden z.B. zum Mischen und Fördern von Baumaterialien insbesondere als Durchlaufmischer oder Putzmaschinen eingesetzt.A screw pump has to pump the pumped Materials a rotatably mounted and by a drive device drivable screw conveyor on the when transporting the material with the pump required pressure is applied. Screw pumps are e.g. for mixing and conveying building materials especially as a continuous mixer or plastering machine used.

Die Förderschnecke ist umgeben von einem Schneckenmantel aus (bedingt) flexiblem Material (Kunststoff oder Gummi). Der Schneckenmantel muß dicht an dem "Gewinde" oder "Schraube" der Förderschnecke anliegen und dem von der Förderschnecke auf das Material aufgebrachten Druck widerstehen. Zu diesem Zweck ist der Schneckenmantel von einer Spannvorrichtung umgeben, bei der es sich im allgemeinen um eine Art Metall-Manschette handelt. Diese Manschette weist einen Umfangsabschnitt auf, der sich über weniger als 360° um den geschlossenen Schneckenmantel erstreckt und einander benachbarte radial abstehende Flansche aufweist, die mittels Spannbolzen o.dgl. miteinander verbunden sind. Durch die Spannbolzen wird über die Manschette radial Spannung auf den Schneckenmantel aufgebracht, so daß sich dieser fest an die Förderschnecke anlegt.The screw conveyor is surrounded by a screw shell made of (conditionally) flexible material (plastic or rubber). The screw shell must be close to the "thread" or "screw" of the screw conveyor and that applied to the material by the screw conveyor Withstand pressure. For this purpose the Screw shell surrounded by a clamping device, at which is generally a kind of metal cuff acts. This cuff has a peripheral portion on which is less than 360 ° around the closed Snail shell extends and adjacent to each other has radially projecting flanges which by means of Clamping bolts or the like are interconnected. The tensioning pin becomes radial over the sleeve Tension is applied to the screw shell so that this attaches itself firmly to the screw conveyor.

Der Schneckenmantel ist infolge von Reibung mit der Förderschnecke und dem zu pumpenden Material einem stetigen Verschleiß ausgesetzt, weshalb er relativ häufig ausgewechselt werden muß.The screw shell is due to friction with the Screw conveyor and the material to be pumped a constant Exposed to wear, which is why it is relatively common must be replaced.

Aus DE-U-86 09 300, DE-A-22 37 563, US-A-3 011 445 und FR-A-1 486 745 sind jeweils Schneckenpumpen bekannt, bei denen der Schneckenmantel mittels einer hydraulisch bzw. pneumatisch betreibbaren Verstellvorrichtung gegen die Förderschnecke gespannt und auf dem jeweils eingestellten Sollwert optimal vorgespannt gehalten wird. Die oben erwähnten Spannschrauben sind also insoweit durch die Verstellvorrichtung ersetzt. Die Verstellvorrichtung der aus US-A-3 011 445 und FR-A-1 486 745 bekannten Schneckenpumpen ist darüber hinaus in Abhängigkeit von dem Förderdruck der zu pumpenden Masse ansteuerbar.From DE-U-86 09 300, DE-A-22 37 563, US-A-3 011 445 and Screw pumps are known from FR-A-1 486 745, in which the screw shell by means of a hydraulic or pneumatically operated adjustment device against the screw conveyor is tensioned and on the set Setpoint is kept optimally biased. The above-mentioned clamping screws are so far replaced by the adjusting device. The adjustment device that known from US-A-3 011 445 and FR-A-1 486 745 Auger pumps are also dependent controlled by the delivery pressure of the mass to be pumped.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schnekkenpumpe zu schaffen, bei der der Schneckenmantel auf einfache Weise in Abhängigkeit von dem Förderdruck gespannt wird. The invention has for its object a screw pump to create where the snail shell is on easily clamped depending on the delivery pressure becomes.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung eine Schneckenpumpe gemäß Anspruch 1 vorgeschlagen; vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen dieser Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.To solve this problem with the invention Screw pump proposed according to claim 1; beneficial Developments of this invention are in the Subclaims specified.

Die erfindungsgemäße Schneckenpumpe ist versehen mit einer Förderschnecke, einer Antriebsvorrichtung zum drehenden Antreiben der Förderschnecke, einem die Förderschnecke umgebenden Schneckenmantel und einer Spannvorrichtung zum Spannen des Schneckenmantels gegen die Förderschnecke, wobei die Spannvorrichtung den Schnekkenmantel mittels einer ansteuerbaren Verstellvorrichtung gegen die Förderschnecke spannt.The screw pump according to the invention is provided with a screw conveyor, a drive device for rotating the screw conveyor, one the screw conveyor surrounding screw shell and a tensioning device for tensioning the screw shell against the Screw conveyor, the tensioning device the snail shell by means of a controllable adjustment device against the screw conveyor.

Die Spannvorrichtung spannt den Schneckenmantel mittels der ansteuerbaren Verstellvorrichtung automatisch gegen die Förderschnecke. Dabei ist die Verstellvorrichtung in Abhängigkeit von dem Förderdruck der zu pumpenden Masse ansteuerbar, und zwar derart, daß die Kraft, mit der der Schneckenmantel gegen die Förderschnecke gespannt ist, mit zunehmendem Förderdruck ansteigt, insbesondere proportional zum Förderdruck ist.The tensioning device tightens the screw shell by means of the controllable adjustment device automatically against the screw conveyor. Here is the adjustment device depending on the delivery pressure of the pumped Mass controllable, in such a way that the force with which the screw shell strained against the screw conveyor is, increases with increasing delivery pressure, in particular is proportional to the delivery pressure.

Erfindungsgemäß wird als Antriebsvorrichtung ein Hydraulikmotor eingesetzt; dies hat den Vorteil, daß der Hydraulikdruck und damit die Hydraulikflüssigkeit direkt zum Betätigen und Steuern der Spannvorrichtung eingesetzt werden kann, die dabei mindestens einen Hydraulik-Stempel aufweist, der zum Spannen bzw. Entspannen des Schneckenmantels entweder auf Zug bzw. Druck oder auf Druck bzw. Zug beansprucht wird (Druck- oder Zug-Stempel).According to the invention, a drive device is used Hydraulic motor used; this has the advantage that the hydraulic pressure and thus the hydraulic fluid directly for actuating and controlling the clamping device can be used, which at least one Has hydraulic stamp, for tensioning or relaxing of the snail shell either on train or Pressure or pressure or tension is claimed (pressure or train stamp).

Die Einstellung der Spannvorrichtung erfolgt bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schneckenpumpe last- bzw. förderdruckabhängig. Dazu wird der Druck der Hydraulikflüssigkeit des Hydraulik-Motors der Schneckenpumpe direkt abgegriffen und zur Ansteuerung der Spannvorrichtung verwendet. Damit ist es möglich, den Schneckenmantel so stark gegen die Förderschnecke spannen zu können, wie es für den augenblicklich abverlangten Förderdruck erforderlich ist. Damit werden die Reibung und damit der Verschleiß des Schneckenmantels reduziert. Schließlich ist aber auch die Möglichkeit gegeben, bei einer Schneckenpumpe den Schneckenmantel seinem Verschleiß entsprechend automatisch nachzustellen.The tensioning device is adjusted at the Screw pump according to the invention depending on the load or delivery pressure. This is the pressure of the hydraulic fluid of the hydraulic motor of the screw pump directly tapped and to control the clamping device used. This makes it possible for the snail shell to look like this to be able to clamp heavily against the screw conveyor, like it is required for the currently required delivery pressure is. So that the friction and thus the Wear on the screw shell is reduced. Finally but there is also the possibility of a Worm pump the worm casing its wear adjust automatically accordingly.

Mit der Erfindung läßt sich die Einsatzdauer eines Schneckenmantels ganz entscheidend verlängern. Versuche haben ergeben, daß hier eine Verbesserung um mindestens den Faktor 2 gegeben ist. Wenn man bedenkt, wie umständlich das Auswechseln des Schneckenmantels ist, ist einsichtig, daß die Erfindung auch eine wesentliche Verbesserung im Umgang mit der Schneckenpumpe, insbesondere bzgl. der Wartung der Schneckenpumpe, mit sich bringt.With the invention, the duration of a Extend the snail shell significantly. tries have shown that there is an improvement of at least is given a factor of 2. If you consider how cumbersome replacing the snail shell is realizes that the invention is also an essential Improvement in handling the screw pump, in particular regarding the maintenance of the screw pump, with itself brings.

Gerade im Anfahrbereich einer Förderschnecke, in dem der Förderdruck noch gering ist, kann die Schneckenpumpe mit geringster Reibung zwischen Förderschnecke und Schneckenmantel betrieben werden. Bei niedrigem Förderdruck kann mit geringem Schneckenmanteldruck gearbeitet werden, was sich vorteilhafterweise auch auf eine Reduktion der zum Betreiben der Schneckenpumpe aufzubringenden Energie auswirkt.Especially in the start-up area of a screw conveyor, in the the delivery pressure is still low, the screw pump can with minimal friction between the screw conveyor and screw shell are operated. At low Delivery pressure can be worked with a low screw shell pressure be, which is also advantageous a reduction in operating the screw pump energy to be applied.

Grundsätzlich ist es möglich, den jeweiligen Förderdruck insbesondere meßtechnisch zu erfassen und damit die automatisch verstellbare Spannvorrichtung zu steuern. Die Ansteuerung der Spannvorrichtung erfolgt übrigens derart, daß sich die Spannung mit zunehmendem Förderdruck erhöht, wobei diese Abhängigkeit insbesondere proportional ist. Basically, it is possible to set the respective delivery pressure especially to measure and thus the automatically adjustable clamping device Taxes. The tensioning device is activated by the way, that the tension increases with increasing Delivery pressure increases, this dependency in particular is proportional.

Vorzugsweise umfaßt die Spannvorrichtung mehrere Spannelemente (z.B. Hydraulik-Stempel), die längs der axialen Erstreckung des Schneckenmantels verteilt an der Spannvorrichtung angreifen. Damit ist es möglich, den Schneckenmantel örtlich variabel und über die gesamte axiale Länge unterschiedlich stark vorzuspannen, dem Schneckenmantel also ein Spannungsprofil aufzuprägen, was je nach Art des zu pumpenden Materials bzw. Mediums vorteilhaft ist. Mehrere Verstellelemente können aber auch mit gleicher Kraftauswirkung auf die Spannvorrichtung einwirken. Damit läßt sich ein konstantes Spannungsprofil über die gesamte axiale Länge des Schneckenmantels erreichen.The tensioning device preferably comprises a plurality of tensioning elements (e.g. hydraulic stamp) along the axial Extension of the snail shell distributed on the Attack the clamping device. This makes it possible to Snail shell locally variable and over the entire biased axial length differently, the Screwing a screw profile on, depending on the type of material or medium to be pumped is advantageous. Several adjustment elements can, however also with the same force on the clamping device act. This allows a constant voltage profile over the entire axial length of the Reaching the snail shell.

Das oder die Verstellelemente der Verstellvorrichtung zum gesteuerten Verstellen der Spannvorrichtung können die unterschiedlichsten Ausgestaltungen aufweisen. Hydraulik-Stempel, motorisch antreibbare Spindeln oder motorisch bewegbare Hebelsysteme sind möglich.The adjustment element or elements of the adjustment device for controlled adjustment of the clamping device have the most varied configurations. Hydraulic stamps, motor-driven spindles or motorized lever systems are possible.

In Fig. 1 ist in Seitenansicht eine Schneckenpumpe 10 dargestellt. Die Schneckenpumpe 10 ist mit einer im Schneckengehäuse 12 drehbar gelagerten Förderschnecke 14 versehen, die eine Achse und eine um die Achse herum verlaufende Schraubenwendel aufweist. Zum drehenden Antreiben der Förderschnecke 14 ist ein bei 16 angedeuteter Hydraulik-Motor als Antriebsvorrichtung vorgesehen. Das Gehäuse 12 der Schneckenpumpe 10 weist einen Einlaß 18 und einen Auslaß 20 auf, die an den beiden axialen Enden der Förderschnecke 14 angeordnet sind.1 shows a side view of a worm pump 10 shown. The screw pump 10 is with a Screw housing 12 rotatably mounted screw conveyor 14 provided one axis and one around the axis has extending screw spiral. For spinning Driving the screw conveyor 14 is indicated at 16 Hydraulic motor provided as a drive device. The housing 12 of the screw pump 10 has one Inlet 18 and an outlet 20 on the two axial ends of the screw conveyor 14 are arranged.

Der Aufbau des Gehäuses 12 wird nachfolgend anhand von Fig. 2 näher erläutert.The structure of the housing 12 is described below with reference to Fig. 2 explained in more detail.

Die Förderschnecke 14 ist abdichtend umschlossen von einem Schneckenmantel 22 aus elastischem Material. Insbesondere wird hierfür ein Kunststoffmaterial eingesetzt. Um den Schneckenmantel 22 herum ist als Spannvorrichtung eine Metallmanschette 24 angeordnet, die radial von außen gegen den Schneckenmantel 22 drückt und diesen wiederum zur dichten Anlage an der Förderschnecke 14 bringt. Die Spannmanschette 24 umschließt den Schneckenmantel 22 über nahezu 360°, ist also nicht gänzlich geschlossen. Im Bereich des offenen Endes der Spannmanschette 24 ist diese mit im wesentlichen radial abstehenden Flanschen 25,26 versehen, die mittels einer automatisch betätigbaren Verstellvorrichtung 28 zum Einstellen der auf den Schneckenmantel 22 wirkenden Spannung relativ zueinander bewegbar sind.The screw conveyor 14 is sealed by a screw shell 22 made of elastic material. Especially a plastic material is used for this. Around the screw shell 22 is as a tensioning device a metal sleeve 24 is arranged which presses radially from the outside against the screw shell 22 and this, in turn, for the tight contact with the screw conveyor 14 brings. The tensioning sleeve 24 encloses the screw shell 22 over almost 360 °, is therefore not completely closed. In the area of the open end of the Tension sleeve 24 is essentially radial protruding flanges 25,26 provided by means of a automatically actuated adjusting device 28 for Setting the acting on the screw shell 22 Voltage are movable relative to each other.

Beim Fördern von Material durch die Schneckenpumpe beaufschlagt die Förderschnecke 14 das Material mit Druck. Diesem Druck muß der Schneckenmantel 22 standhalten. Aus diesem Grunde ist er von der Spannmanschette 24 umgeben. Je höher der Förderdruck ist, desto höher muß die Kraft sein, mit der der Schneckenmantel 22 gegen die Förderschnecke 14 radial gedrückt wird. Je stärker der Schneckenmantel 22 gegen die Förderschnecke 14 gedrückt ist, desto größer ist der Verschleiß des Schneckenmantels 22 durch Reibung einerseits mit der Förderschnecke 14 und andererseits mit dem zu fördernden bzw. zu pumpenden Material. Um den Verschleiß zu reduzieren, ist es zweckmäßig, den Schneckenmantel 22 dem jeweiligen abverlangten Förderdruck entsprechend stark gegen die Förderschnecke 14 vorzuspannen. Zu diesem Zweck ist bei der hier zu beschreibenden Schneckenpumpe 10 eine Automatik zum automatischen Nachstellen der Spannung der Spannmanschette vorgesehen.Actuated when the material is conveyed by the screw pump the screw conveyor 14 with the material Pressure. The screw casing 22 must withstand this pressure. For this reason, it is from the tension cuff 24 surrounded. The higher the delivery pressure, the more the force with which the snail shell must be higher must be 22 is pressed radially against the screw conveyor 14. Each stronger the screw shell 22 against the screw conveyor 14 is pressed, the greater the wear of the Screw shell 22 by friction on the one hand with the Screw conveyor 14 and on the other hand with the material to be conveyed or material to be pumped. To the wear too reduce, it is appropriate to the screw shell 22nd corresponding to the required delivery pressure biased strongly against the screw conveyor 14. To this The purpose is with the screw pump to be described here 10 an automatic system for automatic readjustment the tension of the tensioning sleeve.

Die oben angesprochene automatische Nachstellung erfolgt in Abhängigkeit von der Höhe des jeweiligen Förderdruckes. Ganz allgemein gesprochen, ist der Förderdruck bestimmt durch die Beschaffenheit des Materials (Viskosität) und durch den Querschnitt und die Länge des an den Auslaß des Schneckenpumpengehäuses 12 anschließbaren Förderschlauchs (in den Figuren nicht dargestellt). Ferner kann die Feststellung getroffen werden, daß der auf das pumpende Material wirkende Druck längs der Förderschnecke 14 variiert.The automatic adjustment mentioned above takes place depending on the level of the respective delivery pressure. Generally speaking, the delivery pressure is determined by the nature of the material (Viscosity) and by the cross section and the length of the connectable to the outlet of the screw pump housing 12 Delivery hose (not shown in the figures). Furthermore, the determination can be made that the pressure acting on the pumping material varies along the screw conveyor 14.

Meßtechnisch oder aus Betriebsparametern der Schneckenpumpe, insbesondere aus den Betriebsparameter der Antriebsvorrichtung der Förderschnecke 14 wird der jeweilige Förderdruck bei der Schneckenpumpe 10 bestimmt. Je höher der Förderdruck ist, desto größer muß die auf den Schneckenmantel 22 wirkende Vorspannung durch die Spannmanschette 24 sein. Bei dem hier zu beschreibenden Ausführungsbeispiel wird als Antriebsvorrichtung ein Hydraulik-Motor 16 eingesetzt. Der Betriebsdruck dieses Hydraulik-Motors 16 ist proportional zum Förderdruck, so daß der Betriebsdruck direkt zur Ansteuerung geeigneter Verstellelemente der Verstellvorrichtung 28 ausgenutzt werden kann.Measurement technology or from operating parameters of the screw pump, in particular from the operating parameters of the drive device the screw conveyor 14 becomes the respective one Delivery pressure at the screw pump 10 is determined. Each the higher the delivery pressure, the greater the pressure on the Screw shell 22 acting bias by the Clamp 24 be. The one to be described here Embodiment is used as a drive device Hydraulic motor 16 used. The operating pressure of this Hydraulic motor 16 is proportional to the delivery pressure, so that the operating pressure is directly suitable for actuation Adjusting elements of the adjusting device 28 can be exploited.

Bei der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Variante der Verstellvorrichtung 28 weist diese Druck-Hydraulikstempel 30 auf, deren Zylinder 32 mit dem Flansch 25 der Spannmanschette 24 mechanisch verbunden sind. Dieser Flansch 25 ist dazu mit einem tangential zur Förderschnecke 14 verlaufenden Befestigungselement 34 verbunden, an dem der Stempelzylinder 32 bei 36 drehbar gelagert ist. Der aus dem Zylinder 32 herausragende Kolben 38 ist drehbar an einem Hebel 40 gelagert, dessen diesem Lagerungspunkt 42 abgewandtes Ende sich gegen den Flansch 25 der Spannmanschette 24 abstützt, mit dem der Stempel 32 über das Befestigungselement 34 verbunden ist. Der andere Flansch 26 ist über ein Zugelement 44 mit dem sich am Flansch 25 abstützenden Ende des Hebels 40 verspannt. Fährt nun mit steigendem Betriebsdruck des Hydraulik-Motors 16 der Kolben 38 aus, so wird der Hebel 40 um seinen Anlagepunkt 46 am Flansch 25 verschwenkt, wobei sich der Abstand zwischen diesem Ende des Hebels 40 und dem Flansch 26 ändert, was wiederum eine auf das Zugelement 44 wirkende Zugspannung zur Folge hat, die in eine radiale Stauchung der Spannmanschette 24 umgesetzt wird. Damit wird Druck auf den Schneckenmantel 22 ausgeübt.In the variant of the adjusting device shown in FIG. 2 28 has this pressure hydraulic stamp 30 on whose cylinder 32 with the flange 25 of the clamping sleeve 24 are mechanically connected. This flange 25 is for this purpose tangential to the screw conveyor 14 extending fastener 34 connected to the the stamp cylinder 32 is rotatably supported at 36. Of the Piston 38 protruding from cylinder 32 is rotatable mounted on a lever 40, the bearing point of this 42 opposite end against the flange 25 of the Supporting collar 24 with which the punch 32nd is connected via the fastening element 34. Of the other flange 26 is via a tension element 44 with the braced on the flange 25 supporting end of the lever 40. Now runs with increasing operating pressure of the Hydraulic motor 16 of the piston 38, so the Lever 40 pivoted about its contact point 46 on flange 25, being the distance between that end of the lever 40 and the flange 26 changes, which in turn a tensile stress acting on the tension element 44 The consequence is a radial compression of the clamping sleeve 24 is implemented. This puts pressure on the Worm shell 22 exercised.

Anhand von Fig. 3 soll nachfolgend noch kurz auf eine Variante des Verstellmechanismus 28' eingegangen werden. Soweit sich die Elemente der Ausführungsbeispiele gemäß Fign. 2 und 3 gleichen, sind sie mit denselben Bezugszeichen versehen.With reference to Fig. 3 will briefly below on a Variant of the adjustment mechanism 28 'are discussed. As far as the elements of the embodiments according to FIGS. 2 and 3 are the same, they are the same Provide reference numerals.

Im Unterschied zur Ausführungsform gemäß Fig. 2 wird bei der Alternativen nach Fig. 3 ein Hydraulik-Zugstempel 30' verwendet, dessen Zylinder 32' über ein Verbindungselement 34' mit dem Flansch 26 der Spannmanschette 24 verbunden ist. Der aus dem Zylinder 32' herausragende Kolben 38' ist mit einem Hebel 40' verbunden, der starr mit dem anderen Flansch 25 der Spannmanschette 24 verbunden ist. Mit zunehmendem Betriebsdruck des Hydraulik-Motors 16 wird die Kolbenstange 38' in den Zylinder 32' hineinbewegt. Dadurch wird der Hebel 40' auf den Zylinder 32' zubewegt und damit die beiden Flansche 25,26 aufeinanderzubewegt. Auf diese Weise erfolgt die Vorspannungskrafteinstellung der Spannmanschette 24.In contrast to the embodiment according to FIG. 2 in the alternative according to FIG. 3, a hydraulic tension stamp 30 'used, the cylinder 32' via a connecting element 34 'with the flange 26 of the clamping sleeve 24 is connected. The one protruding from the cylinder 32 ' Piston 38 'is connected to a lever 40' which rigid with the other flange 25 of the clamping collar 24 connected is. With increasing operating pressure of the Hydraulic motor 16, the piston rod 38 'in the Cylinder 32 'moved into it. Thereby the lever 40 ' moved towards the cylinder 32 'and thus the two Flanges 25,26 moved towards each other. In this way the pre-tensioning force of the tensioning collar is adjusted 24th
