Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Drehkolbenmaschine gemäß dem Anspruch 1. Eine gattungsgemäße Drehkolbenmaschine ist aus DE 199 62 804 A1 bekannt, die die Merkmale des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 zeigt und als nächstliegender Stand der Technik angesehen wird. Ein nicht unerhebliches Problem auf dem gattungsgemäßen Gebiet von Pumpen und Verdichtern entsteht immer dann, wenn es sich bei den zu fördernden Stoffen um giftige, auch zähe bzw. nur unter hohen Temperaturen förderbare Stoffe handelt, die das Reinigen der rotierenden Teile vor hohe Anforderungen stellt, bzw. es überhaupt schwierig oder gar unmöglich macht. Hinzu kommen Entscheidungsprobleme bei Vergleichen der Werte der zu fördernden Stoffe mit dem Wert der Maschine und eventuell dem Austausch derselben. Dies gilt insbesondere beim Einsatz für pharmazeutische Stoffe, aber auch für bestimmte, meist unter hoher Temperatur zu fördernde Kunststoffe. Ein erhebliches Problem ist das Reinigen der Pumpteile. Dies besteht auch darin, dass bei der Verwendung von Reinigungssäuren odgl. die Pumpteile entsprechend resistent sein müssen. Auch hierfür sollten die verbleibenden Resträume der Pumpe, d. h. die schädlichen Räume, so klein wie möglich sein, und sollten wenn möglich gegen Null gehen. In der Praxis versucht man dem zu begegnen, indem für die Drehkolbenmaschinen Edelstahl oder teure resistente Stoffe verwendet werden.The invention is based on a rotary piston machine according to claim 1. A generic rotary piston engine is off DE 199 62 804 A1 known, which shows the features of the preamble of claim 1 and is considered to be the closest prior art. A considerable problem in the generic field of pumps and compressors always arises when the substances to be conveyed are toxic substances which are also tough or can only be conveyed at high temperatures, which makes the cleaning of the rotating parts very demanding. make it difficult or even impossible. There are also decision problems in comparing the values of the substances to be conveyed with the value of the machine and possibly the replacement thereof. This is especially true when used for pharmaceutical substances, but also for certain, usually under high temperature to be promoted plastics. A considerable Problem is the cleaning of the pump parts. This is also the case that when using cleaning acids or the like. the pump parts must be resistant accordingly. Again, the remainder of the pump's remaining space, ie the damaging spaces, should be as small as possible, and should approach zero if possible. In practice, attempts are made to counteract this by using stainless steel or expensive resistant materials for the rotary lobes.

Der Erfindung zugrundliegende AufgabeThe problem underlying the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde bei einer Drehkolbenmaschine der gattungsgemäßen Art, insbesondere unter Überwindung der Voreingenommenheit der Fachwelt, ein Einsatz-, bzw. Herstellungsverfahren, bzw. eine spezielle Konstruktion zu entwickeln, über die eine derartige Drehkolbenmaschine einem breiten Nutzungsbereich zugeführt werden kann.The invention is based on the object in a rotary piston engine of the generic type, in particular by overcoming the bias of the art, a Einsatz-, or manufacturing process, or to develop a special construction, via which such a rotary engine can be supplied to a wide range of uses.

Die Erfindung und ihre VorteileThe invention and its advantages

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine erfindungsgemäße Drehkolbenmaschine gemäß dem Hauptanspruch gelöst. Es ist zwar an sich bekannt, bei einer elektrisch angetriebenen Pumpe den die vom Strom durchströmte die elektrisch gesteuerte Spule aufnehmenden, meist fest angeordneten aufwendigen Gehäuseteil mittels eines topfförmigen Spaltrohres von dem rotierenden, den Permanentmagneten aufnehmenden Leistungsrotor zu trennen ( DE 603 00 780 T2 , bzw. AT 28 11 84 ), wobei es allerdings dort um ein völlig anderes Problem geht, nämlich um das Kühlen elektrischer Teile derartiger Spaltrohrpumpen und nicht, wie bei der Erfindung, um eine kostensparende Gestaltung durch die Kombination eines als Wegwerfteil vorgesehenen "billigen" Pumpenkopfes mit einem aufwendigen Pumpengehäuse, was gegebenenfalls ortsfest ist. Wichtig für die Erfindung ist, dass nach Lösen des Pumpenkopfes vom Grundgehäuse die vom zu fördernden Medium durchströmten Arbeitsräume auf dem Grundgehäuse zugewandten Seite verschlossen sind, sodass beispielsweise Säuren udgl. in dem Wegwerfteil verbleiben und mit diesem entsorgt werden können. Bei den bekannten Spaltrohrmotoren ( DE 603 00 780 D2 und AT 28 11 84 ) taucht lediglich der Spalttopf bei geschlossenem Zustand der Pumpe in die elektrisch gesteuerte Wicklung ein, wobei jedoch das die Stromspule aufnehmende Gehäuse kein Grundgehäuse bildet, so dass bei Entfernen des die elektrisch durchströmte Spule aufnehmenden Teils der Pumpenkopf in Bezug auf die zu fördernden Medien nicht mehr geschlossen ist.This object is achieved by a rotary piston machine according to the invention according to the main claim. Although it is known per se, in an electrically driven pump which flows through the stream the electrically controlled coil receiving, usually fixedly arranged complex housing part by means of a cup-shaped can of the rotating, the permanent magnet receiving power rotor to separate ( DE 603 00 780 T2 , respectively. AT 28 11 84 ), although there is a completely different problem, namely the cooling of electrical parts of such canned pumps and not, as in the invention, a cost-saving design by combining a disposable part provided as "cheap" pump head with a complex pump housing, which if necessary stationary. Important for the invention is that after releasing the pump head from the main body, the flow-through from the medium to be pumped working spaces are closed on the base housing side facing, so that, for example acids udgl. remain in the disposable part and can be disposed of with this. In the known canned motor ( DE 603 00 780 D2 and AT 28 11 84 ) immersed only the containment shell in the closed state of the pump in the electrically controlled winding, but the housing accommodating the current coil does not form a basic housing, so that when removing the electrically flowed through the coil receiving part of the pump head with respect to the media to be conveyed no longer closed is.

Es ist außerdem bekannt bei einer medizinischen Dosierpumpe für flüssige Medikamente Pumpeneinheit und Motor bzw. die Wirkverbindung zwischen Motor und Pumpe lösbar zu gestalten, um dadurch, soweit es die Pumpe betrifft, eine wegwerfbare Einwegeinheit zu erzielen, die von der teueren Antriebseinheit (Elektromotor) trennbar ist, so dass Letzterer wiederverwendet werden kann ( DE 199 16 876 A1 ). Allerdings handelt es sich hier um eine Schlauchpumpe, bei der das Merkmal, dass der Pumpenkopf als Wegwerfteil ausgebildet ist, bereits entnehmbar ist, wobei jedoch es sich weder um eine Schnelllöseverbindung handelt, abgesehen davon, dass natürlich derartige lediglich durch den Förderschlauch nach außen abgedichtete Pumpen einen sehr engen Einsatzbereich aufweisen und in Bezug auf die Erfindung einer anderen Gattung von Pumpen zuzuordnen ist.It is also known in a medical metering pump for liquid medication pump unit and motor or the operative connection between the motor and pump to make detachable, thereby, as far as the pump, to achieve a disposable disposable unit, which can be separated from the expensive drive unit (electric motor) so that the latter can be reused ( DE 199 16 876 A1 ). However, this is a peristaltic pump, in which the feature that the pump head is designed as a disposable part, is already removed, but it is neither a quick-release connection is, apart from the fact that, of course, such only by the delivery hose sealed to the outside pumps have a very narrow range of use and is related to the invention of a different type of pump.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weisen die Rotoren eine ineinandergreifende Trochoidenverzahnung (Zykloidenverzahnung) auf. Eine solche Drehkolbenmaschine ist zwar bekannt (siehe Gattung WO 05/024236 A1 ) mit dem großen Vorteil, dass die verbleibenden Resträume der Pumpe, d. h. die schädlichen Räume, sehr klein sind, wobei jedoch in Bezug auf die Erfindung eine erhebliche Voreingenommenheit der Fachwelt für solche trochoidischen Drehkolbenmaschinen besteht, insbesondere in Bezug auf Nutzungsverfahren, Herstellungsverfahren oder Konstruktion.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the rotors have an interlocking Trochoidenverzahnung (cycloid toothing). Although such a rotary engine is known (see genus WO 05/024236 A1 ) with the great advantage that the remaining residual spaces of the pump, ie the harmful spaces, are very small, but with respect to the invention there is a considerable bias of the art for such trochoidal rotary piston machines, in particular with regard to utilization methods, production methods or construction.

Der sehr schwierig zu lösenden Anforderung eines gegen Null gehenden schädlichen Raums werden nur wenig bekannte Drehkolbenmaschinen gerecht ( DE AS 10 11 896 , NSU; WO 2005/024236 A1 , COR), indem die Zähne der rotierenden Teile zykloidenförmig, bzw. trochoidenförmig ausgebildet sind und durch Abrundung der Zähne abdichtend ohne zusätzliche Dichtmittel in die Zähne des anderen rotierenden Teils greifen. Bei diesen bekannten Drehkolbenmaschinen kann der schädliche Raum deshalb bis auf Null reduziert werden.The very difficult to be solved requirement of a zero-going harmful space are only little-known rotary engines justice ( DE AS 10 11 896 , NSU; WO 2005/024236 A1 , COR) by the teeth of the rotating parts are formed cycloid-shaped, or trochoidenförmig and engage by rounding the teeth sealingly without additional sealing means in the teeth of the other rotating part. In these known rotary engines, the harmful space can therefore be reduced to zero.

Eine solche Drehkolbenmaschine mit trochoidenförmig ausgebildetem Rotor weist zwar den Vorteil des geringen schädlichen Raums auf, löst jedoch damit noch nicht oben genanntes Problem, insbesondere bei Förderung von Stoffen unter hohen Temperaturen (Kunststoffen) oder aggressiven Materialien.Although such a rotary engine with trochoidenförmig trained rotor has the advantage of low harmful space, but so does not solve the above problem, especially in the promotion of substances under high temperatures (plastics) or aggressive materials.

Bei der Trochoidenverzahnung handelt es sich jedoch im Gegensatz zu den bekannten Pumpen um eine aufwendige Präzisionspumpe, deren Gestaltung als Wegwerfteil für den Fachmann ungewöhnlich ist, so dass hier eine Voreingenommenheit der Fachwelt zu überwinden war.However, in contrast to the known pumps, trochoidal toothing is a complex precision pump whose design is unusual as a disposable part for a person skilled in the art, so that a bias in the art was to be overcome here.

Die sich aus der der Erfindung zugrundliegenden Aufgabe ergebende Lösung, nämlich den aus Trochoidenteilen bestehenden Pumpenkopf als Wegwerfteil auszubilden und diesen mit dem Grundgehäuse deshalb mit einer Schnelllösverbindung zu verbinden, ist für den Fachmann ungewöhnlich, wobei Schnellverbindungen zwischen Motor und speziellen Pumpen in unterschiedlichster Art, wie oben erwähnt, bekannt sind.The resulting from the problem underlying the invention, namely to form the existing Trochoidenteilen pump head as a disposable part and to connect it with the main body therefore with a Schnelllösverbindung, is unusual for the expert, with quick connections between the engine and special pumps in a variety of ways, such as mentioned above, are known.

Eine entsprechend dem Anspruch 1 zu gestaltende Drehkolbenfördermaschine mit topfförmig ausgebildetem Spaltrohr zur Erleichterung des Austausches des Pumpenkopfes ist ein zusätzlicher Gedankenschritt, der deshalb ungewöhnlich ist, weil der vom zu fördernden Substrat durchströmte Pumpenkopf durch seine erfindungsgemäße Austauschbarkeit keine gedankliche Verbindung zur Funktion des bekannten Spaltmotors bildet, da für den Fachmann bei den bekannten Pumpen das Spaltrohr während des Betriebes das strömende Medium den elektrischen Teil vom Pumpenteil hermetisch abtrennen soll.An according to claim 1 to be designed rotary piston conveyor with cup-shaped canned to facilitate the replacement of the pump head is an additional step of thought, which is unusual because the flowed through from the substrate to be pumped pump head forms by its invention interchangeability no conceptual connection to the function of the known gap motor, because for the expert in the known pumps, the split tube during operation, the flowing medium to hermetically separate the electrical part of the pump part.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird somit beim Austausch des Pumpenkopfes als Wegwerfteil das Spaltrohr mit Rotoren und Permanentmagnet aus dem Grundgehäuse herausgezogen, wonach dann das Austauschteil eingesetzt wird.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, therefore, when replacing the pump head as a disposable part of the can with rotors and permanent magnet pulled out of the base housing, after which the replacement part is used.

Um den erfindungsgemäßen Austausch des Pumpenkopfes zu erleichtern ist gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Verbindung zwischen Grundgehäuse und Pumpenkopf als eine Schnellverbindungskupplung ausgebildet, die an entsprechenden Vorrichtungen von Grundgehäuse und Pumpenkopf angreift.In order to facilitate the exchange of the pump head according to the invention, according to one embodiment of the invention, the connection between the base housing and the pump head as a Quick coupling formed, which acts on corresponding devices of the base housing and pump head.

Eine diesbezügliche vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist derart,

  • dass sich die Vorrichtung zur Verbindung der Gehäuse von Grundgehäuse und Pumpenkopf an den sich berührenden Stirnflächen zwischen Grundgehäuse und Pumpenkopf befinden,
  • dass die Gehäuse in dem sich berührenden Bereich einen einander zugeordneten äußeren Wulst oder Flansch aufweisen und
  • dass die Gehäuse über einen diese Wülste oder Flansche übergreifenden, tangential verkürzbaren Ring axial zusammenspannbar sind.
A related advantageous embodiment of the invention is such,
  • that the device for connecting the housings of the housing and the pump head are located at the contacting end faces between the base housing and the pump head,
  • in that the housings in the contacting area have an associated outer bead or flange and
  • in that the housings can be axially clamped together via a tangentially shortenable ring that overlaps these beads or flanges.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

Wie in Fig. 1 in Explosionsdarstellung gezeigt, weist die erfindungsgemäße Drehkolbenförderpumpe ein Grundgehäuse 1 auf, mit welchem die Pumpe entsprechend ortsfest verankerbar ist und in welchem die elektrisch steuerbare Spule 2 eines Elektromotors angeordnet ist. Im rechten Teil der Explosionsdarstellung ist ein Pumpenkopf 3 dargestellt, der durch ein topfförmiges Spaltrohr 4 verschließbar ist. Zwischen einem flanschförmigen Abschnitt 9 des Spaltrohres 4 und einer dem Abschnitt 9 des Spaltrohres 4 zugewandten ebenen Stirnfläche 8 des Pumpenkopfes 3 ist eine Ringdichtung 5 in einer Stirnringnut 6 des Pumpenkopfes 3 angeordnet. Der Pumpenkopf 3 weist dafür einen Ringwulst 7 auf, an dem die Stirnfläche 8 vorhanden ist und der zum Eingreifen eines Spannringes 10 dient, der andererseits an einem Ringwulst 11 des Grundgehäuses 1 angreift.As in Fig. 1 shown in exploded view, the rotary piston pump according to the invention comprises a base housing 1, with which the pump is anchored correspondingly fixed and in which the electrically controllable coil 2 of an electric motor is arranged. In the right part of the exploded view, a pump head 3 is shown, which can be closed by a pot-shaped can 4. Between a flange-shaped portion 9 of the can 4 and a portion 9 of the can 4 facing flat end face 8 of the pump head 3, a ring seal 5 is disposed in a Stirnringnut 6 of the pump head 3. The pump head 3 has for this purpose an annular bead 7, on which the end face 8 is present and which serves to engage a clamping ring 10, on the other hand engages an annular bead 11 of the base housing 1.

Der Spannring 10 ist bei 12 einseitig offen und durch eine Schraube, die tangential in eine Öffnung 13 einsetzbar ist, in seinem Umfang verkürzbar. Der Spannring 10 weist außerdem konisch verlaufende Stege 14 auf, so dass eine Verkürzung des Umfangs des Spannrings 10 und durch sein Eingreifen an den Ringwülsten 7 und 11 von Pumpenkopf 3 und Grundgehäuse 1 zu deren Zusammenspannen führt.The clamping ring 10 is open at 12 on one side and by a screw which is tangentially inserted into an opening 13, shortened in its scope. The clamping ring 10 also has conically extending webs 14, so that a shortening of the circumference of the clamping ring 10 and by its engagement with the annular beads 7 and 11 of the pump head 3 and the base housing 1 leads to their clamping together.

Der Pumpenkopf 3 nimmt einen Leistungsrotor 15 mit einem Permanentmagneten 16 in einem topfförmigen Abschnitt des Spaltrohres 4 auf, sowie einen durch den Leistungsrotor 15 mit angetriebenen Gegenrotor 17 mit dessen Drehlager 18.The pump head 3 receives a power rotor 15 with a permanent magnet 16 in a pot-shaped portion of the can 4, as well as a through the power rotor 15 with driven counter rotor 17 with the pivot bearing 18th

In Fig. 2 ist insbesondere der Spannring 10 dargestellt mit seiner offenen Seite 12.In Fig. 2 In particular, the clamping ring 10 is shown with its open side 12th

Bei der in Fig. 3 im Zusammenbau und im Längsschnitt gezeigten Version ist besonders gut erkennbar, dass nach Lösen des Spannringes 10 der Pumpenkopf 3 einschließlich dem vom zu fördernden Medium durchströmten Bereich abtrennenden Spaltrohr 4 in einfacher Art aus dem Grundgehäuse 1 und der elektrischen Spule 2 herausziehbar ist.At the in Fig. 3 The version shown in the assembly and in longitudinal section is particularly well recognizable that after releasing the clamping ring 10 of the pump head 3 including the flow-through from the medium to be conveyed area separating can 4 in a simple manner from the base housing 1 and the electric coil 2 can be pulled out.

Es sei darauf hingewiesen, dass die Erfindung nicht nur auf Spaltrohrmaschinen eingeschränkt ist, sondern auch Drehkolbenmaschinen erfasst, bei denen die Abdichtung zwischen dem auszutauschenden Pumpenkopf und dem Grundgehäuse durch andere bekannte Mittel erfolgt. Maßgebend ist die einfache und praktische Austauschbarkeit des Pumpenkopfes mit Abtrennung des Strömungsmediums.It should be noted that the invention is not limited only to canned machines, but also detects rotary piston machines, in which the seal between the exchanged pump head and the base housing is effected by other known means. Decisive is the simple and practical interchangeability of the pump head with separation of the flow medium.
