Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for equalizing the flow rate in oscillating positive displacement pumps according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out this method according to the preamble of claim 5.
  • the DE 41 30 295 A1 discloses a pumping device with two parallel piston pumps, each having its own drive.
  • the two piston pumps are operated via a common control device in such a way that the most constant possible delivery flow is achieved.
  • the drive of each of the piston pumps via its own synchronous motor, which translates the rotational movement of the output shaft of the synchronous motor in a translation of a piston rod of the respective piston pump via a threaded spindle.
  • the DE 198 49 785 C1 discloses a method for adjusting the flow rate in oscillating displacement pumps whose drive is effected by means of a drive motor via a shaft and a crank gear. Up to three characteristics of the pump are controlled by means of the drive motor: the stroke frequency, the stroke length and the flow characteristic, Why the drive motor is variable both in its speed and in its direction of rotation.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, the method of the generic type to eliminate the disadvantages described in such a way that it makes it possible to achieve a largely uniform or constant flow rate by means of simple constructive means with reasonable economic effort.
  • an apparatus for performing this method is to be created, which is easy to operate.
  • the inventive method for equalizing the flow in oscillating displacement pumps is based on the essential idea that the generation of the fluid flow in a delivery line by means of at least two oscillating displacement, whose drive motors are controlled so that the total flow generated in the delivery line largely uniform or constant is.
  • the displacement pumps are operated in a composite with each other without mechanical coupling.
  • the positive displacement pumps are operated so electronically synchronized that a nearly pulsation-free uniform flow (volume flow) is generated in the common delivery line.
  • the method according to the invention is operated in such a way that the speed of the drive motor of each displacement pump is changed in such a way that the superposed flow rates of the positive displacement pumps produce a substantially constant total flow rate.
  • the shaft of the drive motor of each positive displacement pump to achieve the constant characteristic of the total flow rate performs an adapted rotational movement.
  • the inventive device for carrying out the aforementioned method is provided with at least two oscillating displacement pumps, the pressure lines are connected to superimpose the individual flow rates to a common feed line and each having a drive motor without mechanical coupling in electronic synchronization to achieve a largely uniform or constant sum flow are operable.
  • the drive of each displacement pump is a highly dynamic drive.
  • This may be a servo motor, preferably a permanent-magnet three-phase synchronous servo motor.
  • the displacement pumps are diaphragm pumps.
  • FIG. 1 The drawing shows, for performing the method according to the invention in the illustrated embodiment, two oscillating positive displacement pumps in the form of diaphragm pumps 1, 2 are provided, the pressure lines 3, 4 are connected to a common feed line 5.
  • the mechanically uncoupled diaphragm pumps 1, 2 each have a drive motor 6 and 7, which is designed as a highly dynamic drive.
  • This is preferably a servo motor, in particular a permanent-magnet three-phase synchronous servo motor.
  • the drive motors 6, 7 of the two diaphragm pumps 1, 2 are operated by exact electronic synchronization such that a substantially uniform or constant sum flow in the common delivery line 5 can be achieved.
  • FIG Fig. 2a-d This procedure, which is operated by the method not covered by the invention, is illustrated by the individual diagrams in FIG Fig. 2a-d shown, in which the pump delivery is 100% each.
  • the respective left half of the diagrams represent the respective measured value course during the pressure stroke of the diaphragm pump 1, while the corresponding right half of the diagram shows the measured value course in dashed form during the pressure stroke of the diaphragm pump 2.
  • Diagram 2a shows the course of the piston travel over the time t for both diaphragm pumps 1, 2. Since this is a linear course due to the special operation of the drive motors 6, 7 of the two diaphragm pumps 1, 2, the result is as follows Fig. 2b can be seen, a constant piston speed.
  • the diagrams according to Fig. 3a-c show different measurements of the diaphragm pump 1 (solid line) and the diaphragm pump 2 (dashed line), respectively apply over time t, the diaphragm pumps 1, 2 each have only a reduced flow rate of about 90%.
  • the diagram shows according to Fig. 3a the fluid velocity applied over time t without compensation of the loss due to the "dead compression path hK" occurring at the beginning of the pressure stroke.
  • the pump piston is brought after completion of the suction stroke in the position hK before the actual delivery stroke begins.
  • the piston travel then starts at hK, ie the fluid is displaced immediately in the pressure stroke.
