Abstract

The invention relates to an electric fluid pump with a semi-axial construction, in which the supporting ribs (31) are arranged between a pump housing part (32), situated on the radial periphery of the pump, and a first motor housing part (8) lying further inwards along the radius. In said pump, the motor housing part radially surrounds the electric motor (1) and the pump housing part (32) on the radial periphery is configured as one piece with the first motor housing part (8) and the supporting ribs (31). In comparison to known embodiments, this permits smaller wall thicknesses to be achieved for the pump housing, since the supporting ribs provide sufficient strength. The number of parts and the weight can therefore be reduced.

Fluidpumpefluid pump
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fluidpumpe für Verbrennungskraftmaschinen mit einem Elektromotor, der einen in einem Motorgehäuse angeordneten Rotor und einen Sta- tor aufweist, wobei der Rotor zumindest drehfest auf einer Antriebswelle angeordnet ist, einem Laufrad, welches auf der Antriebswelle befestigt ist, zumindest einem Leitrad, welches in Strömungsrichtung des zu fördernden Fluides hinter dem Laufrad angeordnet ist, und einem Pumpengehäuse, welches das Motorgehäuse, das Laufrad und das Leitrad umgibt und an dem an den axialen Enden gegenüberliegend ein Druckstutzen und ein Saugstutzen ausgebildet sind.The invention relates to a fluid pump for internal combustion engines with an electric motor having a rotor arranged in a motor housing and a stator, wherein the rotor is at least rotationally fixed on a drive shaft, an impeller which is mounted on the drive shaft, at least one stator, which is arranged in the flow direction of the fluid to be conveyed behind the impeller, and a pump housing, which surrounds the motor housing, the impeller and the stator and on which at the axial ends opposite a discharge nozzle and a suction nozzle are formed.
Fluidpumpen für Verbrennungskraftmaschinen werden insbesondere als Kühlmittelpumpen im Kühlkreislauf eingesetzt. Während in der Vergangenheit eine direkte Kopplung zur Motordrehzahl vorhanden war und die Pumpen über Riemen- oder Kettentriebe angetrieben wurde werden in neueren Motoren drehzahlregelbare elektrische Kühlmittelpumpen mit Spaltrohr verstärkt eingesetzt, um ein modernes Wärmemanagement zu verwirklichen. Ein Überfluss in der Förderleistung kann somit verhindert werden, so dass beispielsweise eine schnellere Aufheizung der Verbrennungskraftmaschine nach dem Kaltstart möglich ist. Die Fördermenge kann entspre- chend der tatsächlich benötigten Kühlleistung geregelt werden.Fluid pumps for internal combustion engines are used in particular as coolant pumps in the cooling circuit. Whereas in the past there was a direct coupling to the engine speed and the pumps were driven by belt drives or chain drives, in newer engines variable speed electric coolant pumps with split tubes are increasingly used to realize a modern heat management. An abundance in the flow rate can thus be prevented, so that, for example, a faster heating of the internal combustion engine after the cold start is possible. The flow rate can be regulated according to the actually required cooling capacity.
Eine derartige Pumpe ist beispielsweise aus der MTZ Nr.11 Jg.2005 (S. 872-877) bekannt. Diese elektrische Kühlmittelpumpe umfasst einen EC-Motor als Antriebsaggregat und weist einen Pumpenkopf mit axialem Eintritt und tangentialem Austritt auf. Die hier verwendeten Bauteile und insbesondere Gehäuseteile sind jedoch für die Leistungsaufnahme der Pumpe relativ groß, da ein relativ großer Antriebsmotor verwendet werden muss. In der US 2002/0106290 A1 wird daher eine elektrische Fluidpumpe in Halbaxialbauweise offenbart, mit der bei gleicher Leistungsaufnahme des Elektromotors, dieser zur Erreichung größerer Drehzahlen kleiner ausgeführt werden kann, so dass bei kleinerer Bauweise gleiche Fördermengen erreichbar sind. Er weist einen vollständig gekapselten Elektromotor auf, an dessen Außenseite ein Leitrad ausgebildet ist. In Strömungsrichtung hinter dem Leitrad entstehen jedoch Hindernisse zur Durchführung der elektrischen Kontaktierung zur Elektronikeinheit. An der Laufradseite ist der gesamte Motor über Dichtungen gegenüber der Umgebung abgedichtet. Inwieweit eine derartige Abdichtung an den sich drehenden Teilen ausreicht ist zumindest fraglich.Such a pump is known for example from MTZ no.11 Jg.2005 (S. 872-877). This electric coolant pump comprises an EC motor as a drive unit and has a pump head with axial inlet and tangential outlet. However, the components used here and in particular housing parts are relatively large for the power consumption of the pump, since a relatively large drive motor must be used. In the US 2002/0106290 A1, therefore, an electric fluid pump is disclosed in Halbaxialbauweise, with the same power consumption of the electric motor, this can be made smaller to achieve higher speeds, so that with smaller size equal flow rates can be achieved. It has a completely encapsulated electric motor, on whose outer side a stator is formed. In the flow direction behind the stator, however, obstacles to carry out the electrical contact with the electronics unit arise. On the impeller side, the entire motor is sealed by seals against the environment. To what extent such a seal on the rotating parts is sufficient at least questionable.
Das Pumpengehäuse ist zweiteilig ausgeführt und weist verschiedene Abstufungen und Durchgangslöcher für die elektrische Kontaktierung auf. Je nach gewünschter Höchstfördermenge sind verschiedene Elektromotoren und Gehäuse zu entwerfen. Eine vollständige Drallfreiheit wird wahrscheinlich aufgrund der relativ kurzen Leitschaufeln nicht erzielt. Auch ist der Druckverlust durch die Durchführungen der elektrischen Kontaktierung relativ hoch, so dass der Gewinn bezüglich der Leistungsaufnahme des Elektromotors durch die auftretenden Druckverluste zum Teil konterkariert wird.The pump housing is made in two parts and has different gradations and through holes for the electrical contact. Depending on the desired maximum flow rate different electric motors and housings have to be designed. Complete twist freedom is probably not achieved due to the relatively short vanes. Also, the pressure loss through the feedthroughs of the electrical contact is relatively high, so that the gain in terms of power consumption of the electric motor is partially counteracted by the pressure losses occurring.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, bei gleichbleibender Förderleistung die Größe der Pumpe und somit auch des Elektromotors zu reduzieren und Druckverluste zu vermeiden also den Wirkungsgrad der Pumpe zu erhöhen. Des weiteren soll das Gewicht der Pumpe und die Teileanzahl reduziert werden.It is therefore an object of the invention to reduce the size of the pump and thus the electric motor and to avoid pressure losses so the efficiency of the pump while maintaining the same capacity. Furthermore, the weight of the pump and the number of parts should be reduced.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass Stützrippen zwischen einem radial außen liegendem Pumpengehäuseteil und einem ersten radial innen liegenden Motorgehäuseteil angeordnet sind, welches den Elektromotor radial umgibt, wobei das radial außen liegende Pumpengehäuseteil mit dem ersten Motorgehäuseteil und den Stütz- rippen einstückig ausgebildet ist. Somit können im Vergleich zu bekannten Ausführungen geringe Wandstärken des Pumpengehäuses verwirklicht werden, da durch die Stützrippen eine ausreichende Festigkeit gegeben ist. Die Teileanzahl und das Gewicht werden somit reduziert. In einer weiterführenden Ausführungsform ist das radial außen liegende Pumpenge- häuseteil zylindrisch ausgebildet, wodurch der Anschluss zu einem saugseitigen und einem druckseitigen Pumpengehäuseteil einfach herstellbar ist und geringe Verluste auftreten.This object is achieved in that support ribs between a radially outer pump housing part and a first radially inner motor housing part are arranged, which surrounds the electric motor radially, wherein the radially outer pump housing part with the first motor housing part and the support ribs is integrally formed. Thus, small wall thicknesses of the pump housing can be realized in comparison to known designs, since sufficient strength is given by the support ribs. The number of parts and the weight are thus reduced. In a further embodiment, the radially outer pump housing part is cylindrical, whereby the connection to a suction-side and a pressure-side pump housing part is easy to produce and low losses occur.
Vorzugsweise sind die Stützrippen derart geformt sind, dass sie als Leitrad der FIu- idpumpe dienen. Hierdurch übernehmen die Stützrippen die zusätzliche Funktion der Umwandlung der Tangentialströmungskomponente in eine Axialströmungskompo- nente ohne höhere Druckverluste. Der Wirkungsgrad wird gesteigert und Bauteile eingespart.The support ribs are preferably shaped in such a way that they serve as a stator of the fluid pump. As a result, the support ribs assume the additional function of converting the tangential flow component into an axial flow component without higher pressure losses. The efficiency is increased and components saved.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Stützrippen eine derartige Breite aufweisen, dass ein elektrisches Kontaktelement von einer Elektronikeinheit zur Statorwicklung durch eine Bohrung in einer oder mehrerer der Stützrippen führbar ist. Dies verringert den Strömungswiderstand und erhöht den Wirkungsgrad der Pumpe, da innere Einbauten in der Strömung wegfallen.It when the support ribs have such a width that an electrical contact element of an electronic unit to the stator winding through a hole in one or more of the support ribs is feasible is particularly advantageous. This reduces the flow resistance and increases the efficiency of the pump, since internal internals are omitted in the flow.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform ist ein sich in Strömungsrichtung erweiterndes saugseitiges Pumpengehäuseteil einstückig mit einem Gehäuseteil eines vorgeschalteten Ventils ausgebildet. Es kann somit eine modulartige Bauweise mit vorgeschalteten Bypass- oder Thermostatventilen erzielt werden, wodurch wiederum Teile reduziert und Kosten eingespart werden.In a particular embodiment, a suction-side pump housing part which widens in the flow direction is formed integrally with a housing part of an upstream valve. It can thus be achieved a modular design with upstream bypass or thermostatic valves, which in turn reduces parts and costs are saved.
Vorzugsweise begrenzt das erste Motorgehäuseteil den Elektromotor saugseitig. Die Herstellung bleibt dennoch beispielsweise im Aluminiumdruckguss kostengünstig möglich, wobei erneut die Teileanzahl gering ist, die Empfindlichkeit gegen Korrosion gering ist und Montagefehler vermieden werden.Preferably, the first motor housing part limits the electric motor on the suction side. The production remains cost-effective, for example, in aluminum die casting, again the number of parts is low, the sensitivity to corrosion is low and assembly errors are avoided.
Es wird somit eine Fluidpumpe geschaffen, welche eine geringe Teileanzahl und ein geringes Gewicht aufweist, leicht zu montieren ist, Strömungsverluste reduziert und so den Wirkungsgrad im Vergleich zu bekannten Pumpen steigert. Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nachfolgend beschrieben.It is thus provided a fluid pump which has a low number of parts and a low weight, is easy to assemble, reduces flow losses and thus increases the efficiency compared to known pumps. An embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawing and will be described below.
Die Figur zeigt eine Seitenansicht einer erfindungsgemäßen Fluidpumpe in geschnit- tener Darstellung.The figure shows a side view of a fluid pump according to the invention in a sectional representation.
Die in der Figur dargestellte Fluidpumpe, welche sich insbesondere als Kühlmittelpumpe in Verbrennungskraftmaschinen eignet, wird von einem elektronisch kommu- tierten Elektromotor 1 angetrieben, der aus einem Stator 2 sowie einem auf einer An- triebswelle 3 angeordneten Rotor 4 besteht. Am axialen Ende der Antriebswelle 3 ist ein Laufrad 5 angeordnet, welches in halbaxialer Bauweise ausgeführt ist und durch dessen Drehung das zu fördernde Fluid, insbesondere ein Kühlmittel von einem Saugstutzen 6 im Wesentlichen axial durch die Fluidpumpe zu einem Druckstutzen 7 gefördert wird.The fluid pump shown in the figure, which is particularly suitable as a coolant pump in internal combustion engines, is driven by an electronically commutated electric motor 1, which consists of a stator 2 and a rotor 4 arranged on a drive shaft 3. At the axial end of the drive shaft 3, an impeller 5 is arranged, which is designed in a semi-axial design and by the rotation of the fluid to be delivered, in particular a coolant from a suction nozzle 6 is conveyed substantially axially through the fluid pump to a discharge nozzle 7.
Der Elektromotor 1 ist in einem Motorgehäuse angeordnet, welches aus einem ersten saugseitigen Motorgehäuseteil 8 und einem zweiten druckseitigen Motorgehäuseteil 9 besteht. Durch das saugseitige Motorgehäuseteil 8 ist die Antriebswelle 3 geführt, auf der das Laufrad 5 angeordnet ist. Hierzu weist das saugseitige Motorge- häuseteil 8 eine Bohrung 10 auf, in der ein erstes Lager 11 zur Lagerung der Antriebswelle 3 angeordnet ist. Von der Saugseite aus betrachtet hinter dem ersten Lager 11 befindet sich ein keramisches Axialgleitlager 12 sowie eine Gummimanschette 13 und ein Distanzstück 14. Durch diesen Zusammenbau wird eine ausreichend schwingungsgedämpfte Lagerung der Laufradseite der Antriebswelle 3 des Elektro- motors 1 erreicht. Das Distanzstück dient zur Verlängerung des Abstandes des ersten Lagers 11 zu einem zweiten Lager 15, wodurch ein Winkelfehler bei der Fertigung der Bohrung 10 zur Aufnahme der Lager besser ausgeglichen werden kann. Wiederum hinter dem Distanzstück 14 ist auf der Welle ein Rotorblechpaket 16 angeordnet, welches in axialer Richtung verlaufende Schlitze zur Aufnahme von Mag- neten 17 aufweist, welche in bekannter Weise mit einer Statorwicklung 18 korrespondieren. Der Rotor 4 wird axial und radial durch eine Kapsel 19 begrenzt. Die Statorwicklung 18 ist auf einem Isolierkörper 20 gewickelt und begrenzt axial in bekannter Weise ein Statorblechpaket 21. Dieses Statorblechpaket 21 ist zum Schließen des magnetischen Kreises formschlüssig mit einem Rückschlussblech 22 verbunden. Dieses Rückschlussblech 22 liegt gegen einen Anschlag 23 an, der an einer Innenfläche des ersten saugseitigen Motorgehäuseteils 8 ausgebildet ist.The electric motor 1 is arranged in a motor housing which consists of a first suction-side motor housing part 8 and a second pressure-side motor housing part 9. Through the suction-side motor housing part 8, the drive shaft 3 is guided, on which the impeller 5 is arranged. For this purpose, the suction-side motor housing part 8 has a bore 10 in which a first bearing 11 for supporting the drive shaft 3 is arranged. When viewed from the suction side behind the first bearing 11 there is a ceramic axial sliding bearing 12 and a rubber sleeve 13 and a spacer 14. By this assembly, a sufficiently vibration-damped mounting of the impeller side of the drive shaft 3 of the electric motor 1 is achieved. The spacer serves to extend the distance of the first bearing 11 to a second bearing 15, whereby an angular error in the manufacture of the bore 10 for receiving the bearing can be better compensated. Once again behind the spacer 14, a rotor laminated core 16 is arranged on the shaft, which has slits extending in the axial direction for receiving magnets 17, which correspond in a known manner to a stator winding 18. The rotor 4 is bounded axially and radially by a capsule 19. The stator winding 18 is wound on an insulating body 20 and axially limited in a known manner a stator lamination 21. This Statorblechpaket 21 is to close of the magnetic circuit positively connected to a return plate 22. This return plate 22 abuts against a stop 23, which is formed on an inner surface of the first suction-side motor housing part 8.
Der Rotor 4 ist vom Stator 2 durch ein Spaltrohr 24 getrennt, welches an der Saugseite der Pumpe in einer korrespondierenden Aufnahmeöffnung 25 des saugseitigen Motorgehäuseteils 8 anliegt und dessen entgegengesetztes axiales Ende wiederum in einer entsprechenden Aufnahmeöffnung 26 des druckseitigen Motorgehäuseteils 9 angeordnet ist. Der Stator 2 mit seiner empfindlichen Wicklung 18 liegt somit in ei- nem durch die beiden Motorgehäuseteile 8 und 9 sowie das Spaltrohr 24 abgetrennten trockenen Raum.The rotor 4 is separated from the stator 2 by a split tube 24, which rests on the suction side of the pump in a corresponding receiving opening 25 of the suction-side motor housing part 8 and the opposite axial end is in turn arranged in a corresponding receiving opening 26 of the pressure-side motor housing part 9. The stator 2 with its sensitive winding 18 thus lies in a dry space separated by the two motor housing parts 8 and 9 and the can 24.
Am druckseitigen Ende des Spaltrohres 24 ist ein Verschlussteil 27 angeordnet, in dem das zweite Lager 15 zur Lagerung der Antriebswelle 3 angeordnet ist. Axial wird dieses Verschlussteil 27 durch das druckseitige Motorgehäuseteil 9 gesichert, welches unter Zwischenlage einer Dichtung 28 in einer Aufnahmeöffnung 29 des saugseitigen Motorgehäuseteils 8 angeordnet ist.At the pressure-side end of the can 24, a closure member 27 is arranged, in which the second bearing 15 is arranged for mounting the drive shaft 3. Axially, this closure member 27 is secured by the pressure-side motor housing part 9, which is arranged with the interposition of a seal 28 in a receiving opening 29 of the suction-side motor housing part 8.
Die Kontaktierung der Statorwicklung 18 erfolgt über eine Bohrung 30, in radialer Richtung durch das druckseitige Motorgehäuseteil 9. Um Strömungsverluste durch derartige zusätzliche Einbauten zu verhindern, wie es aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt ist, wird diese Bohrung durch Stützrippen 31 geführt, welche zur ausreichenden Festigkeit und Befestigung eines Pumpengehäuses notwendig sind. Hierzu weisen die Stützrippen 31 eine ausreichende Breite auf und sind in einer Art Tragflä- chenform ausgeführt, so dass keine Querschnittsverengung entsteht. Durch die Bohrung 30 kann nun also ein nicht dargestelltes elektrisches Kontaktelement durch die Bohrung 30 zu einer ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Elektronikeinheit zur Ansteuerung des Motors 1 geführt werden.The contacting of the stator winding 18 via a bore 30, in the radial direction through the pressure-side motor housing part 9. In order to prevent flow losses through such additional internals, as is known from the prior art, this bore is guided by support ribs 31, which for sufficient Strength and attachment of a pump housing are necessary. For this purpose, the support ribs 31 have a sufficient width and are designed in a kind of wing shape, so that no cross-sectional constriction occurs. Through the bore 30 so now not shown electrical contact element can be passed through the bore 30 to a likewise not shown electronic unit for controlling the motor 1.
In der dargestellten Ausführung sind die Stützrippen 31 derart geformt, dass sie gleichzeitig als Leitrad dienen, so dass kein zusätzliches Leitrad unmittelbar hinter dem Laufrad 5 notwendig ist. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache einteilige Herstellung des saugseitigen Motorgehäuses 8 mit den Stützrippen und einem zylindrischen ra- dial außen liegenden Pumpengehäuseteil 32. Dieses Pumpengehäuseteil 32 umgibt das radial innen liegende Motorgehäuseteil 8 sowie den gesamten Elektromotor 1.In the illustrated embodiment, the support ribs 31 are shaped such that they also serve as a stator, so that no additional stator immediately behind the impeller 5 is necessary. This allows a simple one-piece production of the suction-side motor housing 8 with the support ribs and a cylindrical ra- dial outer pump housing part 32. This pump housing part 32 surrounds the radially inner motor housing part 8 and the entire electric motor. 1
An der stromabwärtigen und der stromaufwärtigen Seite des Gehäuseteils 8, 31 , 32 sind jeweils unter Zwischenlage einer Dichtung 50 zwei identische Pumpengehäuse- teile 33, 34 mittels einer Schraubverbindung befestigt. Das saugseitige sich in Strömungsrichtung erweiternde Pumpengehäuseteil 33 umfasst den Saugstutzen 6 der als zylindrischer Abschnitt 35 ausgeführt ist sowie ein sich daran anschließenden erweiternden Abschnitt 36. Im Übergangsbereich 37 zwischen dem ersten Abschnitt 35 und dem zweiten Abschnitt 36 ist das halbaxiale Laufrad 5 der Fluidpumpe angeordnet. An den sich erweiternden Abschnitt 36 schließt sich in vorliegender Ausführungsform ein weiterer kurz ausgeführter zylindrischer Abschnitt 38 größeren Durchmessers an, um einen sauberen Übergang zum zylindrischen Pumpengehäuseteil 32 zu erreichen.At the downstream and the upstream side of the housing part 8, 31, 32, two identical pump housing parts 33, 34 are respectively fastened by means of a screw connection with the interposition of a seal 50. The suction side in the flow direction expanding pump housing part 33 comprises the suction nozzle 6 which is designed as a cylindrical portion 35 and an adjoining widening portion 36. In the transition region 37 between the first portion 35 and the second portion 36, the semi-axial impeller 5 of the fluid pump is arranged. In the present embodiment, the expanding section 36 is followed by another short cylindrical section 38 of larger diameter, in order to achieve a clean transition to the cylindrical pump housing part 32.
Entsprechende sich in Strömungsrichtung gesehen verengende Abschnitte und zylindrische Abschnitte weist auch das druckseitige Pumpengehäuseteil 34 auf, wobei aufgrund der Identität der Teile gleiche Bezugszeichen verwendet werden.Corresponding narrowing in the flow direction sections and cylindrical portions also has the pressure-side pump housing part 34, wherein due to the identity of the parts, the same reference numerals are used.
Des Weiteren sind in den identischen Pumpengehäuseteilen 33, 34 Nuten 39 ausgebildet, in welche radiale Enden 40 von Rückführschaufeln 41 greifen. Diese Rückführschaufeln 41 dienen als Nachleitapparat 42 mittels dessen hinter dem Druckstutzen 7 eine vollständig drallfreie Strömung erzielt wird. Dieser Nachleitapparat 42 ist an einer Oberfläche 43 des druckseitigen Motorgehäuseteils 9 ausgebildet und wird dadurch notwendig, das die als Leitrad dienenden Stützrippen 31 relativ kurz ausgeführt werden und in diesem Bereich der Fluidpumpe eine vollständige Drallreduzierung in der Regel nicht erreicht wird. Des Weiteren kann das druckseitige Motorgehäuseteil 9 in Kunststoff hergestellt werden, während das saugseitige Motorgehäuseteil möglichst in Aluminium herzustellen und somit teurer ist. Eine Ausführung des Leitrades in diesem Bereich würde ein relativ teures Verfahren zur Herstellung notwendig machen, während der Nachleitapparat am Kunststoffgehäuseteil 9 einfach und kostengünstig herzustellen ist. Durch die Nuten 39 wird gleichzeitig die Lage des druckseitigen Pumpengehäuse- teils 34 zum druckseitigen Motorgehäuseteil 9 festgelegt. Beim Zusammenbau der Pumpe drückt beim Anziehen der Schrauben zur Befestigung des druckseitigen Pumpengehäuseteils 34 am zylindrischen Pumpengehäuseteils 32 das druckseitige Pumpengehäuseteil 34 über die Rückführschaufeln 40 das Motorgehäuseteil 9 gegen das Motorgehäuseteil 8 beziehungsweise in die Aufnahmeöffnungen 29 des Motorgehäuseteils 8. Des Weiteren wird hierdurch das Motorgehäuseteil 9 gegen das Verschlussteil 27 beziehungsweise das Spaltrohr 24 gedrückt, so dass eine zusätzliche Befestigung der beiden Motorgehäuseteile 8, 9 nicht notwendig ist.Furthermore, grooves 39 are formed in the identical pump housing parts 33, 34, into which radial ends 40 of return vanes 41 engage. These return blades 41 serve as a Nachleitapparat 42 by means of which behind the discharge nozzle 7 a completely twist-free flow is achieved. This Nachleitapparat 42 is formed on a surface 43 of the pressure-side motor housing part 9 and is therefore necessary that the serving as a stator support ribs 31 are made relatively short and in this area of the fluid pump complete swirl reduction is not achieved in the rule. Furthermore, the pressure-side motor housing part 9 can be produced in plastic, while the suction-side motor housing part is made as far as possible in aluminum and is therefore more expensive. An embodiment of the stator in this area would require a relatively expensive manufacturing process, while the Nachleitapparat the plastic housing part 9 is simple and inexpensive to manufacture. At the same time, the position of the pressure-side pump housing part 34 to the pressure-side motor housing part 9 is determined by the grooves 39. When assembling the pump presses when tightening the screws for fixing the pressure-side pump housing part 34 on the cylindrical pump housing part 32, the pressure-side pump housing part 34 via the return vanes 40, the motor housing part 9 against the motor housing part 8 and into the receiving openings 29 of the motor housing part 8. Furthermore, this is the motor housing part pressed against the closure member 27 and the can 24, so that an additional attachment of the two motor housing parts 8, 9 is not necessary.
Beim Lauf der Pumpe wird das zu fördernde Fluid insbesondere das Kühlmittel durch die Drehung des Laufrades 5, welches aus mehreren Laufradschaufeln 44 besteht, durch den Raum zwischen Pumpengehäuse 32, 33, 34 und Motorgehäuse 8 und 9 gefördert, fließt vorbei an den Stützrippen 31 , wo bereits ein Teil des Dralls aus der Strömung durch ihre Funktion als Leitrad entfernt wird und weiter über den Nachleit- apparat 42, in dem die Strömung vollständig vom vorhandenen Drall befreit wird, so dass die aufgewendete Energie möglichst vollständig in Druckenergie und somit axiale Strömung umgewandelt werden kann, ohne große Reibungsverluste zu erhalten.When the pump is running, the fluid to be delivered, in particular the coolant, is conveyed through the space between the pump housings 32, 33, 34 and motor housings 8 and 9 by the rotation of the impeller 5 which consists of a plurality of impeller blades 44, flows past the support ribs 31, where already a part of the swirl is removed from the flow by its function as a stator and further on the Nachleit- apparatus 42, in which the flow is completely freed from the existing swirl, so that the energy used converted as completely as possible in pressure energy and thus axial flow can be obtained without major friction losses.
Ein Teil des Fluids strömt hinter dem Laufrad 5 durch Bohrungen 45, welche im saugseitigen Motorgehäuseteil 8 ausgebildet sind. Ein weiterer Teil des Fluids strömt auch hinter dem Laufrad 5 bis zur Antriebswelle 3 und hier zwischen dem ersten Lager 11 und der Antriebswelle 3 hindurch, so dass das vorhandene Gleitlager ausreichend geschmiert wird. Somit steht Kühlflüssigkeit im Rotorraum, welche wiederum zwischen Antriebswelle 3 und dem zweiten Lager 15 sowie durch nicht sichtbare Bohrungen im Verschlussteil 27 in einen dahinter liegenden Raum 46 weitergeführt wird. Dieser Raum 46 ist über eine weitere Bohrung 47, welche axial durch das druckseitige Motorgehäuseteil 9 verläuft, mit dem dahinter liegenden Raum verbunden. Somit entsteht sowohl eine Schmierung der Lager 11 , 15 als auch eine Mög- lichkeit zur Kühlung und Abführung eventuell vorhandener Luftmengen im Rotorraum. Diese Halbaxialpumpe zeichnet sich insbesondere dadurch aus, dass sie besonders klein zu bauen ist, da bei gleicher Leistungsaufnahme eine gleiche Förderleistung bei geringerer Motorgröße und gesteigerter Drehzahl im Vergleich zu bekannten Pumpen zu erreichen ist. Dies wird insbesondere durch die extrem reduzierten Druckverluste bei einer derartigen Ausführung, aber auch durch die halbaxiale Bauweise erreicht.A part of the fluid flows behind the impeller 5 through holes 45 which are formed in the suction-side motor housing part 8. Another part of the fluid also flows behind the impeller 5 to the drive shaft 3 and here between the first bearing 11 and the drive shaft 3, so that the existing sliding bearing is sufficiently lubricated. Thus, coolant is in the rotor chamber, which in turn is continued between the drive shaft 3 and the second bearing 15 and by non-visible holes in the closure member 27 in a space 46 behind it. This space 46 is connected via a further bore 47, which extends axially through the pressure-side motor housing part 9, with the space behind it. This results in both a lubrication of the bearings 11, 15 as well as a possibility for cooling and removal of possibly existing amounts of air in the rotor chamber. This semi-axial pump is characterized in particular by the fact that it is very small to build, since the same power consumption an equal capacity with a smaller motor size and increased speed compared to known pumps can be achieved. This is achieved in particular by the extremely reduced pressure losses in such a design, but also by the semi-axial design.
Eine derartige Pumpe kann des Weiteren sehr kostengünstig hergestellt werden, da weniger unterschiedlich ausgeführte Bauteile vorhanden sind. Dies reduziert gleich- zeitig mögliche Fehler bei der Montage. Durch den Verzicht des zusätzlichen Leitrades und die Integration der elektrischen Kontaktierung in die Stützrippen werden zusätzliche Bauteile vermieden und Druckveriuste reduziert. Es wird somit insgesamt ein höherer Wirkungsgrad erreicht.Furthermore, such a pump can be produced very inexpensively, since there are fewer differently designed components. At the same time this reduces potential errors during assembly. By eliminating the additional stator and the integration of the electrical contact in the support ribs additional components are avoided and Druckveriuste reduced. It is thus achieved a total of higher efficiency.
Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich aufgrund der Einfachheit der Pumpengehäu- seteile 33, 34, diese mit einem am Druck- beziehungsweise Saugstutzen angeordneten Flansch auszustatten. Hierdurch ist es sowohl möglich, eine Anbindung direkt an ein Motorgehäuse herzustellen als auch zur Erhöhung des geförderten Fluidvolu- menstroms mehrere Pumpen in Reihe zu schalten. Dies wird insbesondere dadurch möglich, dass durch den Nachleitapparat 42 eine drallfreie Strömung erzeugt wird, so dass direkt das Laufrad 5 einer nachgeschalteten Pumpe angeströmt werden könnte ohne Energieverluste zu erhalten. Somit ist es auch nicht notwendig bei geforderter doppelter Leistung eine größere Pumpe mit wiederum größerem Motor zu bauen, sondern durch die Teilegleichheit einfach die entsprechende benötigte Anzahl Pum- pen hintereinander zu schalten.Of course, it is also possible due to the simplicity of Pumpengehäu- seteile 33, 34 to equip them with a arranged on the pressure or suction nozzle flange. This makes it possible to produce a connection directly to a motor housing as well as to connect several pumps in series in order to increase the delivered fluid volume flow. This is possible in particular in that a spin-free flow is generated by the Nachleitapparat 42, so that directly the impeller 5 of a downstream pump could be flown without energy losses. Thus, it is not necessary to build a larger pump with a larger motor when required double power, but simply to switch the corresponding required number of pumps in succession by the part equality.
Auch ist es denkbar, durch die Einfachheit insbesondere des saugseitigen Pumpen- gehäuseteils 33 dieses einstückig mit Ventilgehäuseteilen auszuführen, so dass das Pumpengehäuseteil 33 beispielsweise eine Aufnahme für einen Bypass oder ein in- tegriertes Thermostatventil aufweist. Auch Teile des Gehäuses eines Ringschieberventils könnten einstückig mit dem saugseitigen Pumpengehäuseteil 33 hergestellt werden. Es wird darauf hingewiesen, dass es sich bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel lediglich um eine mögliche Ausführung der Erfindung handelt, dessen Konstruktion in verschiedenen Punkten zu ändern ist, ohne den Schutzbereich der Patentansprüche zu verlassen. It is also conceivable, by the simplicity, in particular of the suction-side pump housing part 33, to carry this integrally with valve housing parts, so that the pump housing part 33 has, for example, a receptacle for a bypass or an integrated thermostatic valve. Also, parts of the housing of a sliding ring valve could be made in one piece with the suction-side pump housing part 33. It should be noted that the illustrated embodiment is merely a possible embodiment of the invention, the construction of which is subject to change without departing from the scope of the claims.
