Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Turbomolekularpumpe nach dem Oberbegriff des 1. Patentanspruches.The invention relates to a turbomolecular pump according to the preamble of claim 1.
Die aktiven Pumpelemente einer Turbomolekularpumpe bestehen aus mit Schaufeln versehenen Rotor- und Statorscheiben, die abwechselnd hintereinander angeordnet sind. Die Rotor- und Statorscheiben weisen im allgemeinen jeweils einen inneren Tragring auf, der auf der Außenseite mit Schaufeln bestückt ist. Die Schaufeln der Rotorscheiben, welche mit hoher Geschwindigkeit umlaufen, ergeben im Zusammenwirken mit den Statorschaufeln den Pumpeffekt. Durch Distanzringe, welche am äußeren Umfang zwischen den Statorscheiben liegen, werden diese so auf Abstand gehalten, dass die Rotorscheiben zwischen ihnen berührungsfrei rotieren können. Statorscheiben und Distanzringe bilden so gemeinsam den Stator, der durch die Innenwand des Pumpengehäuses zentriert wird und z. B. mit Federn zusätzlich axial so zusammengedrückt wird, dass die Statorscheiben und die Distanzringe einen festen Verbund bilden. Die Statorscheiben sind aus Gründen der Montage zweigeteilt und bestehen somit aus zwei Halbscheiben.The active pump elements of a turbomolecular pump consist of with blades provided rotor and stator disks, which are arranged alternately one behind the other are. The rotor and stator disks generally each have an inner one Support ring, which is equipped with blades on the outside. The shovels of the Rotor disks that rotate at high speed result in interaction with the stator blades the pump effect. By spacer rings, which on outer circumference between the stator disks, they are spaced maintained that the rotor disks can rotate between them without contact. Stator disks and spacer rings together form the stator through the inner wall the pump housing is centered and z. B. with springs additionally axially is pressed together in such a way that the stator disks and the spacer rings form a firm Form a network. The stator disks are divided into two for reasons of assembly and thus consist of two half disks.
Diese herkömmliche Art einer Konstruktion von Turbomotekularpumpen ist jedoch mit einer Reihe von Nachteilen behaftet, welche zum großen Teil auf die hohe Anzahl der Bauteile zurückzuführen ist. Als Folge entstehen hohe Fertigungskosten und lange Montagezeiten, die sich wiederum auf die Reparatur- und Wartungsarbeiten nachteilig auswirken. Die exakte Einhaltung von Toleranzen, welche für einen sicheren Betrieb einer Turbomolekularpumpe notwendig sind, erfordert mit steigende Anzahl von Bauteilen einen extrem hohen Aufwand. Die radiale Zentnerung und die axiale Fixierung der Statorscheiben bedeuten zusätzliche Justierarbeiten. Die Tatsache, dass die Statorscheiben zum Zwecke der Montage zweigeteilt sind, zieht weitere Unsicherheiten bei den Toleranzen mit sich und bewirkt vor allem zusätzliche Undichtigkeiten innerhalb der Pumpe. Dadurch werden störende Rückströmungen ermöglicht, die die Wirksamkeit der Pumpe verringern. However, this conventional type of construction of turbo-molecular pumps is common a number of disadvantages, largely due to the high number of the components is due. As a result, there are high manufacturing costs and long Assembly times, which in turn affect the repair and maintenance work adversely affect. The exact observance of tolerances, which for a safe Operation of a turbomolecular pump are necessary with increasing numbers of components is extremely expensive. The radial centering and the Axial fixation of the stator disks means additional adjustment work. The fact, the fact that the stator disks are divided in two for the purpose of assembly, draws more Uncertainties in the tolerances and, above all, causes additional leaks inside the pump. This enables disruptive backflows which reduce the effectiveness of the pump.
Die Erfindung hat sich zur Aufgabe gestellt, eine Turbomolekularpumpe vorzustellen, bei der die Anzahl der Bauteile gegenüber herkömmlichen Konstruktionen deutlich reduziert ist. Dadurch sollen Fertigungskosten und Montagezeiten verringert sowie die Wartungsarbeiten vereinfacht werden. Vermeidung von Undichtigkeiten innerhalb der Pumpe, welche durch die Zweiteilung der Statorscheiben bedingt sind, gehört ebenfalls zur Aufgabenstellung. Eine Verbesserung der Wärmeleitung vom Pumpeninneren nach außen wird angestrebt, was zur Sicherheit des Pumpenbetriebs beiträgt.The object of the invention is to present a turbomolecular pump, where the number of components is clear compared to conventional designs is reduced. This should reduce manufacturing costs and assembly times as well the maintenance work is simplified. Avoiding leaks within the pump, which is due to the division of the stator disks, belongs also for the task. An improvement in the heat conduction from the inside of the pump externally, what is strived for is the safety of pump operation contributes.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des 1. Patentanspruches gelöst. Die Ansprüche 2 ― 4 stellen weitere Ausgestaltungsformen der Erfindung dar.The task is characterized by the characterizing features of the first claim solved. Claims 2-4 represent further embodiments of the invention.
Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung wird die Anzahl der Bauteile einer Turbomolekularpumpe erheblich verringert. Dadurch kann die Fertigung vereinfacht und eine leichtere zeitsparende Montage ermöglicht werden. Die Einhaltung der notwendigen Toleranzen wird durch die reduzierte Anzahl von Bauteilen wesentlich erleichtert. Die radiale Zentrierung und die axiale Fixierung der Statorscheiben werden durch die Erfindung an sich vorgegeben und bedürfen keiner weiteren Justierarbeit. Der Transport der beim Betrieb der Pumpe entstehenden Wärme nach außen kann durch eine kompakte Bauweise und durch die Vermeidung von wärmeleitungshemmenden Übergängen zwischen den Teilen herkömmlicher Bauweise erheblich verbessert werden. Darüber hinaus kann durch Anbringen von Kühl- oder Heizelementen im Bereich der Statorelemente eine sehr wirksame Temperaturregelung des gesamten Pumpenaufbaues, besonders jedoch der pumpaktiven Teile, in Abhängigkeit von den Betriebsbedingungen der Pumpe erfolgen.The arrangement according to the invention increases the number of components of a turbomolecular pump significantly reduced. This can simplify production and easier, time-saving assembly is made possible. Compliance with the necessary Tolerances are made considerably easier by the reduced number of components. The radial centering and the axial fixation of the stator washers given by the invention per se and require no further adjustment work. The heat generated during operation of the pump can be transported to the outside due to a compact design and the avoidance of heat conduction inhibitors Transitions between the parts of conventional construction significantly improved become. In addition, by attaching cooling or heating elements in the area of the stator elements a very effective temperature control of the whole Pump structure, but especially the pump-active parts, depending depending on the operating conditions of the pump.
Wenn man die Rotorscheiben durch Klemmvorrichtungen einzeln nach einander auf der Welle befestigt und nicht, wie seither, als Scheibenpaket zusammen aufschrumpft oder aus dem Vollen erstellt, kann man die Statorbauteile als ganze Teile montieren, und sie müssen nicht vorher in der Mitte geteilt werden. Dadurch werden zusätzliche Undichtigkeiten innerhalb der Pumpe und somit störende Rückströmungen vermieden. If you open the rotor disks one by one by clamping devices attached to the shaft and not, as has been the case since, shrink-wrapped together or created from the solid, you can the stator components as whole parts mount, and they do not need to be divided in the middle beforehand. This will additional leaks within the pump and thus disturbing backflows avoided.
