Definitions
- Centrifugal pumps have a gap between the rotating impeller and the stationary pump member surrounding the impeller. In order to reduce leakage losses occurring at the gap from the impeller pressure side to the impeller suction side, gap seals are provided.
- gap seals are made US 2006/0147328 A1 and US 2007/0160467 A1 known.
- the gap seals described therein are mounted on a stationary pump part which separates the impeller pressure side from the impeller suction side.
- the width of this gap can be designed so that no appreciable loss of leakage can occur, but then there is a risk of friction between the impeller and the gap seal, which can lead to wear of the friction partners involved and particularly unfavorable to a blocked pump.
- the dilemma is to have to accept a relatively high wear and a blockage of the pump or otherwise with a larger gap, although a lower wear but relatively large leakage losses either at a narrow, low leakage causing gap.
- the invention has for its object to provide a centrifugal pump with a gap seal, which should be further improved in the wear characteristics at the lowest possible leakage from the impeller pressure side to the impeller suction.
- the centrifugal pump according to the invention has at least one impeller and at least one sealing arrangement which is arranged between a housing wall of the pump housing and the impeller and thus seals the suction side of the impeller against the pressure side of the impeller.
- the seal assembly has a seal which is rotatably attached to the impeller.
- the seal On the impeller, the seal is slidably disposed in the radial direction relative to the impeller. Particularly advantageously, the seal is mounted on the impeller so that it can move radially in any direction transverse to a central axis of the impeller substantially. This allows a narrow formation of the required gap between the seal rotating with the impeller and the fixed part of the seal assembly, since the seal is e.g. then, when a foreign body has penetrated into the gap or when the seal contacts the fixed part of the seal assembly due to a deflection of the impeller shaft, can perform a short-time increasing evasion movement of the gap.
- the radial distance of the seal from the fixed part of the seal assembly at the location where it contacts the fixed part or at which a foreign body is located be increased so that it is favorable no abrasive wear on the seal and / or the fixed part of the seal assembly comes.
- the invention further provides, in a further advantageous embodiment, for the seal to be designed to be flexible at least in sections.
- the seal preferably has elastic deformability, and preferably elastic flexibility, at least in a portion adjacent to the gap with the fixed part of the seal assembly. These are preferably a deformability transversely to its sealing surface with the fixed part of the seal assembly. This elasticity also allows a deflection movement of the seal in a deflection of the impeller shaft or in a foreign body penetrated into the seal assembly.
- the seal is designed as an axial seal, wherein for the purposes of the invention an axial seal is to be understood as meaning a seal in which the seal takes place in the axial direction of the impeller, ie the sealing surfaces extend in the axial direction of the impeller.
- An embodiment is preferred in which the seal is arranged on a suction mouth of the impeller, wherein it has a hollow cylindrical portion which extends in the axial direction of the impeller.
- the suction mouth of the impeller is typically formed centrally on a front cover plate in the inflow direction of the impeller.
- the seal is preferably mounted in such a way that the inner wall of the hollow cylindrical section, which preferably forms a sealing surface of the seal arrangement, is aligned substantially flush with the edge of the suction mouth.
- a sleeve-shaped stationary part of the seal arrangement which is expediently arranged on the housing of the centrifugal pump or on the housing wall, engage in the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal.
- the outer cross-section or outer diameter of the sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly, which engages in the hollow cylindrical portion of the impeller-side arranged seal expediently corresponds to the inner cross-section or inner diameter of the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal, wherein a formed between the sleeve-shaped part and the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal gap may advantageously be relatively narrow. Accordingly, only relatively small leaks can occur at the gap. In view of these leaks, it also proves to be advantageous that the gap at least in one end portion extends in the inflow direction of the sucked by the pump liquid and is open to the hem and out, so that the resulting leakage liquid can be sucked directly on the suction mouth.
- a particularly small gap width can be achieved if the impeller-side seal, as already described, at least partially flexible and / or this seal is displaceable in the radial direction relative to the impeller.
- These embodiments cause the impeller-side seal in the case of friction with the housing-side sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly can escape this sleeve-shaped part in the radial direction, i. can move radially away from this part.
- the housing-side part of the seal assembly and the seal can align themselves so independently.
- the ability of the impeller-side seal to be able to move in the radial direction of the impeller relative to the impeller also proves to be advantageous insofar as by such a displacement of the impeller-side seal, similar to a hydrodynamic sliding bearing, a narrowing in the radial direction gap between the impeller side and the housing side seal results.
- This wedge-shaped gap leads to a hydrodynamic pressure distribution in the gap, whereby a force is exerted on the radially movable impeller-side seal, which tends to move the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal again in a concentric position to the housing-side sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly.
- the gasket is capable of returning to its normal position on its own.
- the seal may be attached to the impeller advantageously with a preferably flexible mounting ring.
- a section of the impeller preferably an axial end of the impeller surrounding the suction mouth, and a section of the seal which contacts this section or end have an at least substantially corresponding external cross section.
- the flexibility of the mounting ring makes it possible in this case advantageous that the mounting ring can be placed under strain in a simple manner around the contacting portions of the impeller and the seal and then exerts a clamping force on these sections, whereby the seal positively and / or non-positively on the Impeller is set.
- the seal to attach the seal to the impeller preferably has both an end of the seal and an axial end of the impeller on a radially outwardly cantilevered flange extension, wherein the two extensions for fixing together engage in an inner groove of the extension ring attached to the attachment.
- the seal is positively fixed not only in the radial direction but also in the axial direction of the mounting ring.
- the attachment ring preferably holds the seal with radial play on the impeller.
- the attachment ring may comprise an extension formed at the end of the seal, the extension having a small clearance in the radial direction to the attachment ring, which advantageously permits limited deflection movements of the sealing ring in the radial direction relative to the rotor.
- the seal is rotatably connected via a positive connection with the impeller.
- This positive connection can be generated either directly between the seal and the impeller or on the mounting ring by the intervention of at least one engagement means in at least one corresponding receptacle for this engagement means, which is basically arbitrary, on which component or on which components Engagement means and on which component or which components receptacles are provided for these engagement means.
- a preferred embodiment provides that at least one engagement means is formed on a suction mouth side facing the seal, which is in engagement with a corresponding engagement means on the impeller. That is, the positive connection is made here directly between the seal and the impeller.
- recesses may be formed on an annular end surface of the gasket contacting the impeller, while corresponding protrusions are formed on an impeller side contact surface which engage with the gasket side recesses and fix the gasket against rotation relative to the impeller, preferably maintaining a certain radial mobility remains.
- the projections are provided on the sealing side and the recesses on the impeller side.
- the fastening ring may also be advantageous to form in the inner groove of the fastening ring at least one radially oriented projection, which engages in a corresponding radial recess of suction mouth and / or seal.
- the mounting ring is made of an elastic material, such as rubber, since in the torque transmission from the impeller to the seal may possibly shocks from the impeller on the seal may occur, the noise caused thereby by the elastic material of the Mounting ring are damped.
- the centrifugal pump it is provided to non-rotatably connect the seal to the suction mouth by virtue of frictional engagement.
- the impeller-side and the sealing-side contact surface and possibly also a fixing ring serving for fastening the seal to the impeller can each be designed to form a frictional connection.
- the seal and the fastening ring can be advantageously formed as an integral component.
- an annular portion is provided at an axial end of the seal, which includes an axial end of the impeller circumferentially.
- the portion forming the seal and the portion of the component forming the fastening ring are in this case made of an elastic material.
- an impeller 4 driven by an impeller 2 of a centrifugal pump is shown in each case.
- a suction port 10 is formed at one axial end 8.
- a seal 12 is arranged.
- the seal 12 is formed of an elastic material, preferably rubber. It has a hollow cylindrical portion 14 in the form of a base body 14, which is aligned axially and concentrically to a central axis A of the impeller 4.
- the main body 14 forms an inflow channel to the suction mouth 10 of the impeller. 4
- a rigid, sleeve-shaped portion 16 of a sealing member 18 At the end remote from the impeller 4 of the base body 14 engages a rigid, sleeve-shaped portion 16 of a sealing member 18 with a small clearance, ie, forming a comparatively narrow Gaps, in the main body 14 a.
- the sealing member 18 is fixedly arranged on a housing wall, not shown in the figures of a pump housing also not shown and forms an inlet to the suction port 10 of the impeller 4.
- the impeller-side seal 12 and the sleeve-shaped portion 16 of the housing wall sealing member 18 form a seal assembly, the the suction side of the impeller 4 seals against the pressure side of the impeller 4.
- the gap between the main body 14 of the seal 12 and the housing wall sealing member 18 can flow only a small amount of liquid from the pressure side of the impeller 4 to the suction side, wherein it proves to be particularly advantageous that the gap between the base body 14 and the sleeve-shaped portion 16 of the sealing member 18 concentric with the central axis A of the impeller 4 extends directly in the direction of the suction mouth 10 of the impeller 4, so that the leaked liquid can be sucked in again by the impeller 4 again.

Description
Kreiselpumpen weisen zwischen dem sich drehenden Laufrad und dem das Laufrad umgebenden feststehenden Pumpenteil einen Spalt auf. Um an dem Spalt auftretenden Leckageverluste von der Laufraddruckseite zu der Laufradsaugseite zu verringern, sind Spaltdichtungen vorgesehen.Centrifugal pumps have a gap between the rotating impeller and the stationary pump member surrounding the impeller. In order to reduce leakage losses occurring at the gap from the impeller pressure side to the impeller suction side, gap seals are provided.
Solche Spaltdichtungen sind aus
Aus
Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Kreiselpumpe mit einer Spaltdichtung zu schaffen, die bei der Verschleißeigenschaften bei einer möglichst geringen Leckage von der Laufraddruckseite zu der Laufradsaugseite weiter verbessert sein sollen.Against this background, the invention has for its object to provide a centrifugal pump with a gap seal, which should be further improved in the wear characteristics at the lowest possible leakage from the impeller pressure side to the impeller suction.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Kreiselpumpe mit den in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmalen gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung sowie den Zeichnungen.This object is achieved by a centrifugal pump having the features specified in claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, the following description and the drawings.
Die erfindungsgemäße Kreiselpumpe weist mindestens ein Laufrad und mindestens eine Dichtungsanordnung auf, die zwischen einer Gehäusewand des Pumpengehäuses und dem Laufrad angeordnet ist und so die Saugseite des Laufrads gegen die Druckseite des Laufrads abdichtet. Die Dichtungsanordnung weist eine Dichtung auf, die an dem Laufrad drehfest befestigt ist.The centrifugal pump according to the invention has at least one impeller and at least one sealing arrangement which is arranged between a housing wall of the pump housing and the impeller and thus seals the suction side of the impeller against the pressure side of the impeller. The seal assembly has a seal which is rotatably attached to the impeller.
D.h., die Abdichtung der Saugseite des Laufrads gegen dessen Druckseite erfolgt zwischen der Dichtung und der feststehenden Gehäusewand bzw. einem an der Gehäusewand angeordneten Dichtkörper, wobei sich die Dichtung mit dem Laufrad mitdreht. Es findet demnach keine Relativbewegung zwischen dem Laufrad und der Dichtung in der Drehrichtung des Laufrads statt. Ein Vorteil dieser Ausgestaltung ist es, dass das Laufrad auf diese Weise keinen Reibpartner mit einem feststehenden Pumpenteil bildet, so dass das Laufrad keinem abrasiven Verschleiß unterliegt. Weiter erlaubt es die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Dichtung an dem Laufrad in besonders günstiger Weise, die Dichtung nicht nur als eine Radialdichtung sondern besonders vorteilhaft als eine Axialdichtung auszubilden, was im weiteren Verlauf mit den damit verbundenen Vorteilen noch eingehend beschrieben wird.That is, the sealing of the suction side of the impeller against the pressure side between the seal and the stationary housing wall or arranged on the housing wall sealing body, wherein the seal rotates with the impeller. Accordingly, there is no relative movement between the impeller and the seal in the direction of rotation of the impeller. An advantage of this embodiment is that the impeller in this way does not form a frictional partner with a fixed pump part, so that the impeller no abrasive wear subject. Next allows the inventive arrangement of the seal on the impeller in a particularly favorable manner to form the seal not only as a radial seal but particularly advantageous as an axial seal, which will be described in detail with the associated advantages in detail.
An dem Laufrad ist die Dichtung in radialer Richtung relativ zu dem Laufrad verschiebbar angeordnet. Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Dichtung derart an dem Laufrad angebracht, dass sie sich im Wesentlichen in beliebiger Richtung quer zu einer Mittelachse des Laufrads radial bewegen kann. Dies ermöglicht eine schmale Ausbildung des erforderlichen Spalts zwischen der sich mit dem Laufrad drehenden Dichtung und dem feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung, da die Dichtung z.B. dann, wenn ein Fremdkörper in den Spalt eingedrungen ist oder wenn die Dichtung den feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung aufgrund einer Durchbiegung der Laufradwelle kontaktiert, eine den Spalt kurzzeitig vergrößernde Ausweichbewegung ausführen kann. D.h., durch ein radiales Verschieben der Dichtung relativ zu dem Laufrad kann der radiale Abstand der Dichtung von dem feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung an der Stelle, an der sie den feststehenden Teil kontaktiert oder an der sich ein Fremdkörper befindet, derart vergrößert werden, dass es günstigstenfalls zu keinem abrasiven Verschleiß an der Dichtung und/oder dem feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung kommt.On the impeller, the seal is slidably disposed in the radial direction relative to the impeller. Particularly advantageously, the seal is mounted on the impeller so that it can move radially in any direction transverse to a central axis of the impeller substantially. This allows a narrow formation of the required gap between the seal rotating with the impeller and the fixed part of the seal assembly, since the seal is e.g. then, when a foreign body has penetrated into the gap or when the seal contacts the fixed part of the seal assembly due to a deflection of the impeller shaft, can perform a short-time increasing evasion movement of the gap. That is, by a radial displacement of the seal relative to the impeller, the radial distance of the seal from the fixed part of the seal assembly at the location where it contacts the fixed part or at which a foreign body is located, be increased so that it is favorable no abrasive wear on the seal and / or the fixed part of the seal assembly comes.
Mit dem Ziel, die Gefahr eines abrasiven Verschleißes weiter zu verringern, sieht die Erfindung in einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung darüber hinaus vor, die Dichtung zumindest abschnittsweise flexibel auszubilden. Dementsprechend weist die Dichtung vorzugsweise zumindest in einem Abschnitt, der an den Spalt mit dem feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung angrenzt, eine elastische Verformbarkeit und vorzugsweise eine elastische Biegsamkeit auf. Es handelt sich dabei bevorzugt um eine Verformbarkeit quer zu ihrer Dichtfläche mit dem feststehenden Teil der Dichtungsanordnung. Diese Elastizität ermöglicht ebenfalls eine Ausweichbewegung der Dichtung bei einer Durchbiegung der Laufradwelle oder bei einem in die Dichtungsanordnung eingedrungenen Fremdkörper.With the aim of further reducing the risk of abrasive wear, the invention further provides, in a further advantageous embodiment, for the seal to be designed to be flexible at least in sections. Accordingly, the seal preferably has elastic deformability, and preferably elastic flexibility, at least in a portion adjacent to the gap with the fixed part of the seal assembly. These are preferably a deformability transversely to its sealing surface with the fixed part of the seal assembly. This elasticity also allows a deflection movement of the seal in a deflection of the impeller shaft or in a foreign body penetrated into the seal assembly.
Wir bereits erwähnt, erweist es sich als besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Dichtung als eine Axialdichtung ausgebildet ist, wobei im Sinne der Erfindung unter einer Axialdichtung eine solche Dichtung zu verstehen ist, bei der die Dichtung in axialer Richtung des Laufrads erfolgt, d.h., dass sich die Dichtflächen in axialer Richtung des Laufrads erstrecken. Es ist eine Ausgestaltung bevorzugt, bei der die Dichtung an einem Saugmund des Laufrads angeordnet ist, wobei sie einen hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt aufweist, der sich in axialer Richtung des Laufrads erstreckt. Der Saugmund des Laufrads ist typischerweise zentral an einer in Einströmrichtung vorderen Deckscheibe des Laufrads ausgebildet. An dem den Saugmund begrenzenden Rand der Deckscheibe ist die Dichtung vorzugsweise derart angebracht, dass die Innenwandung des hohlzylindrischen Abschnitts, die bevorzugt eine Dichtfläche der Dichtungsanordnung bildet, im Wesentlichen bündig mit dem Rand des Saugmunds fluchtet.As already mentioned, it proves to be particularly advantageous if the seal is designed as an axial seal, wherein for the purposes of the invention an axial seal is to be understood as meaning a seal in which the seal takes place in the axial direction of the impeller, ie the sealing surfaces extend in the axial direction of the impeller. An embodiment is preferred in which the seal is arranged on a suction mouth of the impeller, wherein it has a hollow cylindrical portion which extends in the axial direction of the impeller. The suction mouth of the impeller is typically formed centrally on a front cover plate in the inflow direction of the impeller. At the edge of the cover disk delimiting the suction mouth, the seal is preferably mounted in such a way that the inner wall of the hollow cylindrical section, which preferably forms a sealing surface of the seal arrangement, is aligned substantially flush with the edge of the suction mouth.
Vorteilhaft kann hierbei ein hülsenförmig ausgebildeter feststehender Teil der Dichtungsanordnung, der zweckmäßigerweise an dem Gehäuse der Kreiselpumpe bzw. an dessen Gehäusewand angeordnet ist, in den hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt der Dichtung eingreifen.Advantageously, in this case a sleeve-shaped stationary part of the seal arrangement, which is expediently arranged on the housing of the centrifugal pump or on the housing wall, engage in the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal.
Der Außenquerschnitt bzw. Außendurchmesser des hülsenförmigen Teils der Dichtungsanordnung, der in den hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt der laufradsseitig angeordneten Dichtung eingreift, korrespondiert zweckmäßigerweise mit dem Innenquerschnitt bzw. Innendurchmesser des hohlzylindrischen Abschnitts der Dichtung, wobei ein zwischen dem hülsenförmigen Teil und dem hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt der Dichtung ausgebildeter Spalt vorteilhafterweise relativ schmal sein kann. Dementsprechend können an dem Spalt nur verhältnismäßig geringe Leckagen auftreten. Im Hinblick auf diese Leckagen erweist es sich zudem als vorteilhaft, dass sich der Spalt zumindest in einem Endabschnitt in Einströmrichtung der von der Pumpe angesaugten Flüssigkeit erstreckt und zu dem Saumund hin geöffnet ist, so dass die anfallende Leckageflüssigkeit auch direkt wieder über den Saugmund angesaugt werden kann.The outer cross-section or outer diameter of the sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly, which engages in the hollow cylindrical portion of the impeller-side arranged seal expediently corresponds to the inner cross-section or inner diameter of the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal, wherein a formed between the sleeve-shaped part and the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal gap may advantageously be relatively narrow. Accordingly, only relatively small leaks can occur at the gap. In view of these leaks, it also proves to be advantageous that the gap at least in one end portion extends in the inflow direction of the sucked by the pump liquid and is open to the hem and out, so that the resulting leakage liquid can be sucked directly on the suction mouth.
Eine besonders geringe Spaltbreite kann dann erzielt werden, wenn die laufradseitige Dichtung, wie bereits beschrieben, zumindest abschnittsweise flexibel ausgebildet ist und/oder diese Dichtung in radialer Richtung relativ zu dem Laufrad verschiebbar ist. Diese Ausgestaltungen bewirken, dass die laufradseitige Dichtung im Falle einer Reibung mit dem gehäuseseitigen hülsenförmigen Teil der Dichtungsanordnung diesem hülsenförmigen Teil in radialer Richtung ausweichen kann, d.h. sich von diesem Teil radial entfernen kann. Der gehäuseseitige Teil der Dichtungsanordnung und die Dichtung können sich so selbstständig zueinander ausrichten.A particularly small gap width can be achieved if the impeller-side seal, as already described, at least partially flexible and / or this seal is displaceable in the radial direction relative to the impeller. These embodiments cause the impeller-side seal in the case of friction with the housing-side sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly can escape this sleeve-shaped part in the radial direction, i. can move radially away from this part. The housing-side part of the seal assembly and the seal can align themselves so independently.
Die Fähigkeit der laufradseitigen Dichtung, sich in radialer Richtung des Laufrads relativ zu dem Laufrad verschieben zu können erweist sich auch insofern als vorteilhaft, als sich durch ein solches Verschieben der laufradseitigen Dichtung, ähnlich einem hydrodynamischen Gleitlager, ein sich in radialer Richtung verengender Spalt zwischen der laufradseitigen und der gehäuseseitigen Dichtung ergibt. Dieser keilförmige Spalt führt zu einer hydrodynamischen Druckverteilung in dem Spalt, wodurch auf die radial bewegliche laufradseitige Dichtung eine Kraft ausgeübt wird, die das Bestreben hat, den hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt der Dichtung wieder in eine konzentrische Lage zu dem gehäuseseitigen hülsenförmigen Teil der Dichtungsanordnung zu bewegen. Dementsprechend ist die Dichtung selbstständig in der Lage, sich in ihre Normalposition zurückzubewegen.The ability of the impeller-side seal to be able to move in the radial direction of the impeller relative to the impeller also proves to be advantageous insofar as by such a displacement of the impeller-side seal, similar to a hydrodynamic sliding bearing, a narrowing in the radial direction gap between the impeller side and the housing side seal results. This wedge-shaped gap leads to a hydrodynamic pressure distribution in the gap, whereby a force is exerted on the radially movable impeller-side seal, which tends to move the hollow cylindrical portion of the seal again in a concentric position to the housing-side sleeve-shaped part of the seal assembly. Accordingly, the gasket is capable of returning to its normal position on its own.
Die Dichtung kann an dem Laufrad vorteilhaft mit einem vorzugsweise flexiblen Befestigungsring befestigt sein. Hierbei erweist es sich als besonders zweckmäßig, wenn ein Abschnitt des Laufrads, bevorzugt ein den Saugmund umgebendes axiales Ende des Laufrads, und ein diesen Abschnitt bzw. dieses Ende kontaktierender Abschnitt der Dichtung einen zumindest im Wesentlichen korrespondierenden Außenquerschnitt aufweisen. Die Flexibilität des Befestigungsrings ermöglicht es hierbei vorteilhaft, dass der Befestigungsring unter Dehnung in einfacher Weise um die einander kontaktierenden Abschnitte des Laufrads und der Dichtung gelegt werden kann und anschließend eine Spannkraft auf diese Abschnitte ausübt, wodurch die Dichtung form- und/oder kraftschlüssig an dem Laufrad festgelegt wird.The seal may be attached to the impeller advantageously with a preferably flexible mounting ring. This proves to be special expedient if a section of the impeller, preferably an axial end of the impeller surrounding the suction mouth, and a section of the seal which contacts this section or end have an at least substantially corresponding external cross section. The flexibility of the mounting ring makes it possible in this case advantageous that the mounting ring can be placed under strain in a simple manner around the contacting portions of the impeller and the seal and then exerts a clamping force on these sections, whereby the seal positively and / or non-positively on the Impeller is set.
Zur Befestigung der Dichtung an dem Laufrad weist bevorzugt sowohl ein Ende der Dichtung als auch ein axiales Ende des Laufrads eine radial nach außen kragende flanschförmige Erweiterung auf, wobei die beiden Erweiterungen zur Befestigung gemeinsam in eine Innennut des um die Erweiterung gelegten Befestigungsrings eingreifen. Auf diese Weise wird die Dichtung nicht nur in radialer Richtung sondern auch in axialer Richtung von dem Befestigungsring formschlüssig festgelegt.To attach the seal to the impeller preferably has both an end of the seal and an axial end of the impeller on a radially outwardly cantilevered flange extension, wherein the two extensions for fixing together engage in an inner groove of the extension ring attached to the attachment. In this way, the seal is positively fixed not only in the radial direction but also in the axial direction of the mounting ring.
Der Befestigungsring hält die Dichtung bevorzugt mit radialem Spiel an dem Laufrad. So kann der Befestigungsring beispielsweise eine an dem Ende der Dichtung ausgebildete Erweiterung umfassen, wobei die Erweiterung in radialer Richtung zu dem Befestigungsring einen geringen Abstand aufweist, der vorteilhaft begrenzte Ausweichbewegungen des Dichtrings in radialer Richtung relativ zum dem Laufrad zulässt.The attachment ring preferably holds the seal with radial play on the impeller. For example, the attachment ring may comprise an extension formed at the end of the seal, the extension having a small clearance in the radial direction to the attachment ring, which advantageously permits limited deflection movements of the sealing ring in the radial direction relative to the rotor.
Vorteilhaft ist die Dichtung über einen Formschluss drehfest mit dem Laufrad verbunden. Dieser Formschluss kann entweder direkt zwischen der Dichtung und dem Laufrad oder über den Befestigungsring durch das Eingreifen zumindest eines Eingriffsmittels in zumindest eine korrespondierende Aufnahme für dieses Eingriffsmittel erzeugt werden, wobei grundsätzlich beliebig ist, an welchem Bauteil bzw. an welchen Bauteilen Eingriffsmittel und an welchem Bauteil bzw. welchen Bauteilen Aufnahmen für diese Eingriffsmittel vorgesehen sind.Advantageously, the seal is rotatably connected via a positive connection with the impeller. This positive connection can be generated either directly between the seal and the impeller or on the mounting ring by the intervention of at least one engagement means in at least one corresponding receptacle for this engagement means, which is basically arbitrary, on which component or on which components Engagement means and on which component or which components receptacles are provided for these engagement means.
In diesem Zusammenhang sieht eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung vor, dass an einer dem Saugmund zugewandten Seite der Dichtung mindestens ein Eingriffsmittel ausgebildet ist, welches mit einem korrespondierenden Eingriffsmittel am Laufrad in Eingriff ist. D.h., der Formschluss wird hier direkt zwischen der Dichtung und dem Laufrad hergestellt. So können z.B. an einer das Laufrad kontaktierenden ringförmigen Stirnfläche der Dichtung über den Umfang verteilt Ausnehmungen ausgebildet sein, während an einer laufradseitigen Kontaktfläche korrespondierende Vorsprünge ausgebildet sind, die in die dichtungsseitigen Ausnehmungen eingreifen und die Dichtung relativ zu dem Laufrad drehfest festlegen, wobei vorzugsweise eine gewisse radiale Beweglichkeit erhalten bleibt. Natürlich ist es auch möglich, dass die Vorsprünge dichtungsseitig und die Ausnehmungen laufradseitig vorgesehen sind.In this context, a preferred embodiment provides that at least one engagement means is formed on a suction mouth side facing the seal, which is in engagement with a corresponding engagement means on the impeller. That is, the positive connection is made here directly between the seal and the impeller. Thus, e.g. recesses may be formed on an annular end surface of the gasket contacting the impeller, while corresponding protrusions are formed on an impeller side contact surface which engage with the gasket side recesses and fix the gasket against rotation relative to the impeller, preferably maintaining a certain radial mobility remains. Of course, it is also possible that the projections are provided on the sealing side and the recesses on the impeller side.
Daneben kann es auch vorteilhaft sein, in der Innennut des Befestigungsrings mindestens einen radial ausgerichteten Vorsprung auszubilden, welcher in eine korrespondierende radiale Ausnehmung von Saugmund und/oder Dichtung eingreift. Typischerweise ist es umgekehrt auch möglich, in der Innennut des Befestigungsrings zumindest eine radial ausgerichtete Ausnehmung vorzusehen, in die ein radial ausgerichteter Vorsprung von Saugmund und/oder Dichtung eingreift. In beiden Fällen wird eine Drehbewegung der Dichtung relativ zu dem Laufrad von dem Befestigungsring verhindert. Dies ist insbesondere dann vorteilhaft, wenn der Befestigungsring aus einem elastischen Material, beispielsweise Gummi ausgebildet ist, da bei der Drehmomentübertragung von dem Laufrad auf die Dichtung eventuell Stöße von dem Laufrad auf die Dichtung auftreten können, wobei die hierdurch verursachten Geräusche von dem elastischen Material des Befestigungsrings gedämpft werden.In addition, it may also be advantageous to form in the inner groove of the fastening ring at least one radially oriented projection, which engages in a corresponding radial recess of suction mouth and / or seal. Conversely, it is typically also possible to provide at least one radially aligned recess in the inner groove of the fastening ring, into which recess a radially aligned projection of suction mouth and / or seal engages. In both cases, a rotational movement of the seal is prevented relative to the impeller of the mounting ring. This is particularly advantageous when the mounting ring is made of an elastic material, such as rubber, since in the torque transmission from the impeller to the seal may possibly shocks from the impeller on the seal may occur, the noise caused thereby by the elastic material of the Mounting ring are damped.
Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Kreiselpumpe ist vorgesehen, die Dichtung durch Kraftschluss drehfest mit dem Saugmund zu verbinden. So können die laufradseitige und die dichtungsseitige Kontaktfläche und ggf. darüber hinaus auch ein zur Befestigung der Dichtung an dem Laufrad dienender Befestigungsring jeweils zur Bildung eines Reibschluss ausgebildet sein.In a further preferred embodiment of the centrifugal pump according to the invention, it is provided to non-rotatably connect the seal to the suction mouth by virtue of frictional engagement. Thus, the impeller-side and the sealing-side contact surface and possibly also a fixing ring serving for fastening the seal to the impeller can each be designed to form a frictional connection.
Insbesondere dann, wenn die erfindungsgemäße Kreiselpumpe eine Niederdruckpumpe ist, können die Dichtung und der Befestigungsring vorteilhaft als ein integrales Bauteil ausgebildet sein. Dementsprechend ist an einem axialen Ende der Dichtung ein ringförmiger Abschnitt vorgesehen, der ein axiales Ende des Laufrads umfänglich umfasst. Bevorzugt sind der die Dichtung bildende Abschnitt und der den Befestigungsring bildende Abschnitt des Bauteils hierbei aus einem elastischen Material ausgebildet.In particular, when the centrifugal pump according to the invention is a low-pressure pump, the seal and the fastening ring can be advantageously formed as an integral component. Accordingly, an annular portion is provided at an axial end of the seal, which includes an axial end of the impeller circumferentially. Preferably, the portion forming the seal and the portion of the component forming the fastening ring are in this case made of an elastic material.

In den Figuren ist jeweils ein über eine Laufradwelle 2 angetriebenes Laufrad 4 einer Kreiselpumpe dargestellt. An einer vorderen, d.h. an einer von der Laufradwelle 2 abgewandten Deckscheibe 6 des Laufrads 4 ist an einem axialen Ende 8 ein Saugmund 10 ausgebildet. An dem axialen Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 ist eine Dichtung 12 angeordnet. Die Dichtung 12 ist aus einem elastischen Material, vorzugsweise Gummi ausgebildet. Sie weist einen hohlzylindrischen Abschnitt 14 in Form eines Grundkörpers 14 auf, der axial und konzentrisch zu einer Mittelachse A des Laufrads 4 ausgerichtet ist. Der Grundkörper 14 bildet einen Einströmkanal zu dem Saugmund 10 des Laufrads 4.In the figures, an
An dem von dem Laufrad 4 abgewandten Ende des Grundkörpers 14 greift ein starrer, hülsenförmiger Abschnitt 16 eines Dichtungsteils 18 mit geringem Spiel, d.h. unter Bildung eines vergleichsweise schmalen Spalts, in den Grundkörper 14 ein. Das Dichtungsteil 18 ist fest an einer in den Figuren nicht dargestellten Gehäusewand eines ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Pumpengehäuses angeordnet und bildet einen Einlauf zu dem Saugmund 10 des Laufrads 4. Zusammen bilden die laufradseitige Dichtung 12 und der hülsenförmiger Abschnitt 16 des gehäusewandseitigen Dichtungsteils 18 eine Dichtungsanordnung, die die Saugseite des Laufrads 4 gegen die Druckseite des Laufrads 4 abdichtet. Aufgrund der schmalen Ausbildung des Spalts zwischen dem Grundkörper 14 der Dichtung 12 und dem gehäusewandseitigen Dichtungsteil 18 kann hierbei nur eine geringe Menge an Flüssigkeit von der Druckseite des Laufrads 4 zu dessen Saugseite strömen, wobei es sich als besonders vorteilhaft erweist, dass sich der Spalt zwischen dem Grundkörper 14 und dem hülsenförmiger Abschnitt 16 des Dichtungsteils 18 konzentrisch zur Mittelachse A des Laufrads 4 direkt in Richtung des Saugmundes 10 des Laufrads 4 erstreckt, so dass die ausgetretene Flüssigkeit umgehend von dem Laufrad 4 wieder angesaugt werden kann.At the end remote from the
Das axiale Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 um den Saugmund 10 ist flanschartig ausgebildet, wobei ein, eine Anlagefläche für die Dichtung 14 bildender Endbereich radial erweitert ist. Das Ende der Dichtung 8, das an dem Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 zur Anlage gebracht werden soll, ist ebenfalls in radialer Richtung erweitert, wobei der Innen- und Außendurchmesser dieser Erweiterung 21 den entsprechenden Durchmessern der an dem Ende 8 ausgebildeten Erweiterung 19 entsprechen.The
Die Befestigung der Dichtung 12 an dem Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 erfolgt mittels eines Befestigungsrings 20. Der Befestigungsring 20 ist aus elastischem Material, vorzugsweise Gummi ausgebildet. An seiner Innenseite ist eine umfängliche Nut 22 ausgebildet. Zur Befestigung der Dichtung 12 an dem Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 wird der Befestigungsring 20 unter Dehnung umfänglich so um das Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 und die Dichtung 12 gelegt, dass die an dem Ende 8 ausgebildete Erweiterung 19 und die an der Dichtung 12 ausgebildete Erweiterung 21 gemeinsam in die Nut 22 des Befestigungsrings 20 eingreifen, so dass der Befestigungsring 20 diese Erweiterungen 19 und 21 sowohl axial als auch radial umfasst, wobei in radialer Richtung zwischen der dichtungsseitigen Erweiterung 21 und der umfänglichen Innenwandung der Nut 22 ein geringes Spiel besteht. Dieses Spiel ermöglicht ggf. eine Ausweichbewegung der Dichtung 12 relativ zu dem hülsenförmigen Abschnitt 16 des Dichtungsteils 18 quer zur Mittelachse A des Laufrads 4.The attachment of the
Die Dichtung 12 wird von dem Befestigungsring 22 sowohl in radialer als auch in axialer Richtung an dem Ende 8 des Laufrads 4 festgelegt. Um eine Drehbewegung der Dichtung 12 relativ zu dem Laufrad 4 um dessen Mittelachse A zu verhindern, sind an der äußeren Stirnseite des Endes 8 des Laufrads 4 über den Umfang dieser Stirnseite gleichmäßig verteilt sechs Vorsprünge 24 ausgebildet, die sich in axialer Richtung erstrecken. Korrespondierend zu diesen Vorsprüngen 24 sind an dem stirnseitigen Ende der an der Dichtung 12 ausgebildeten Erweiterung 21 sechs Ausnehmungen 26 ausgebildet, in die die Vorsprünge 24 formschlüssig eingreifen.The
