Definitions
- the invention relates to a turbomolecular vacuum pump with the features of the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Turbomolecular vacuum pumps are constructed like a turbine with stator and rotor blades. A significant pumping effect is only achieved in the molecular flow range (p ⁇ 10 ⁇ 3 bar). In the subsequent area of the Knudsen flow, the delivery rates decrease more and more with increasing pressure.
- the pumping principle of a turbomolecular vacuum pump is based on the fact that the gas molecules to be pumped receive an impulse in the conveying direction through collisions with the rotor and stator blades. This effect is only achieved if the peripheral speeds of the rotor blades are in the order of magnitude of the average thermal speed of the gas molecules to be pumped.
- the average thermal velocity of gas molecules depends on their molar mass. It is approx. 1760 m / s for H 2 (mass 2) and approx. 470 m / s for N 2 (mass 28).
- the compression ratio of a known turbomolecular vacuum pump increases between the masses of the aforementioned gases H 2 and N from about 10 3 to 10 8 .
- the usual design of the blades of a turbomolecular pump is known from DE-U 72 37 362. They have flat boundary surfaces. Their angle of attack (angle between the plane of the blades and a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation) decreases from the suction side of the pump to the pressure side.
- the object is achieved by the invention, i.e. the conveyance of light gases is improved.
- the advantage is achieved that the measures according to the invention do not impair the compression and delivery performance of the pump (compression, pumping speed, throughput) for gases with a higher molar mass.
- the blades designed according to the invention retain their improved conveying properties well into the Kundsen area, so that the fore-vacuum resistance of a turbomolecular pump equipped therewith is considerably cheaper in comparison with the prior art or the outlay for the fore-vacuum pumps can be significantly reduced.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically a turbomolecular vacuum pump
- Figures 2 and 3 designs of rotor blades designed according to the invention, in which either the rear or the front has convex and concave areas
- the turbomolecular vacuum pump 1 shown in FIG. 1 comprises a housing / stator 2, an inlet 3, an outlet 4, stator blades 5 and rotor blades 6.
- the stator blades 5 are components of rows of stator blades, which are connected to the housing / stator 2.
- the rotor blades 6 are components of rows of rotor blades which are attached to the rotating body 7, e.g. a shaft, attached or formed in one piece.
- the rows of rotor and stator blades alternate with one another at opposite angles of attack and cause the gases to be conveyed from inlet 3 to outlet 4.
- FIGS. 2 to 5 show different versions of blades designed according to the invention (unwound). Its upper edge 8 in the figures faces the suction side of the pump 1, its lower edge 9 the pressure side. In each case, sections through the blades 5, 6 are shown, approximately perpendicular to the essentially radially directed longitudinal axes of the blades. As shown in each case, the convex and / or concave regions of the front and rear sides extend parallel to these longitudinal axes of the blades. The direction of rotation of the blades 5, 6 is identified by an arrow 10.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show exemplary embodiments for rotor blades 6, the front sides of which are designated by 11 and the rear sides of which are designated by 12. In the embodiment according to FIG.
- the rear sides 12 of the blades 6 have a convex region 13 on the suction side and a concave region 14 on the pressure side.
- the front side 11 is flat in the area 15 of its suction side (inflow, inflow), and convex in the area 16 of its pressure side (outflow).
- the front sides 11 of the blades 6 have concave (suction side) and convex (pressure side) regions 15 and 16, respectively, while the rear sides 12 are of convex (region 13) and flat (region 14) pressure side.
- the front and rear boundary surfaces run towards one another at the suction side and the pressure side at acute angles, as a result of which the edges 8, 9 of the blades are formed.
- FIG. 4 shows - likewise developed - an embodiment with three rows of rotor blades, which are components of the rotor system 7, and two rows of stator blades, which are components of the stator 2.
- the rotor blades 6 are all designed in such a way that they each have concave and convex regions on their front and rear sides (cf. also FIG. 5).
- the stator blades 5 of the upper row of stator blades have flat front and rear sides in a known manner, while the stator blades 5 of the lower row of blades are designed according to the invention.
- the cross section of the stator blades 5 is to be designed such that they are essentially mirror images of the neighboring rotor blades, ie they have opposite angles of attack.
- a blade 6 is shown enlarged in FIG. Some tangents ti to t 5 are shown. This shows that each wing 6 has practically a large number of angles of attack. In contrast, the angle of attack in the prior art changes from level to level. The radii of the concave and convex areas are chosen so that the tangents always have positive angles of attack.
- the tangent t 2 is a tangent through the inflection point
- the tangent t 2 has the angle of attack ⁇ , which - as in the prior art - can decrease from the suction side to the pressure side.
- the stator blades 5 are also expediently formed in a mirror image.
