Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pump set with a fluid pump, which comprises a pump housing having a suction opening and a pressure opening, wherein the feed pump is designed as a circulation pump for swimming pools or swimming pools.
  • a fluid pump which comprises a pump housing having a suction opening and a pressure opening
  • the feed pump is designed as a circulation pump for swimming pools or swimming pools.
  • Such feed pumps are used in various embodiments when fluids, in particular liquid media must be promoted. Often, such pumps are installed in more complex systems.
  • a typical example is the use of a feed pump as a circulation pump in a filter system of a swimming pool or a swimming pool.
  • US 2010/019121 A1 a fluid pump is known, which is designed as a circulation pump for swimming pools or swimming pools, and which can be adjusted by means of different spacers to the required installation height.
  • DE 10 2010 038137 A1 describes a pump that corresponds to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Other relevant to the present invention publications are EP 1 167 775 A2 and US 2011/012008 A ,
  • the present invention is therefore based on the technical problem of providing a pump for fluid media, in particular a circulation pump for swimming pools or swimming pools, which can be easily integrated instead of a pump of another type of pump in an existing system.
  • the invention accordingly relates to a pump set with a fluid pump, which comprises a pump housing, which has a suction opening and a pressure opening, the suction opening and / or the pressure opening being recessed in each case in a suction-side connection flange or a pressure-side connection flange the different suction nozzle or discharge nozzle are mounted.
  • both the type of connecting flange for example, with external thread, with internal thread, as slip-on, as Einschubstutzen, etc.
  • the feed pump can be adapted to the typical standard pipe dimensions in different countries by appropriate selection of the nozzles.
  • the connecting flanges specify the dimensions of the corresponding replaceable pressure or suction nozzle in their dimensions.
  • the exact position of the nozzle opening is variable, so that even within certain limits a horizontal and vertical adjustment of the position of the pressure or suction nozzle with unchanged position of the pump housing is possible.
  • either the suction opening or the pressure opening are recessed in the respectively corresponding connection flange, so that either different suction nozzles or different discharge nozzles can be mounted on the connection flange.
  • both the suction opening and the pressure opening are particularly preferably recessed in the respective connecting flange, so that both different suction nozzles and different pressure nozzles can be mounted.
  • the suction nozzles or the discharge nozzles can be mounted interchangeably on the corresponding connection flange. The user acquires the pump set according to the invention with a certain number of different suction and discharge nozzles and can make the adjustment of the suction and discharge nozzles themselves. An interchangeable mounting can be ensured for example by screwing the suction nozzle or discharge nozzle with the corresponding flange.
  • other releasable connection options are conceivable.
  • the pump housing is mounted on a base plate comprising interchangeable spacers.
  • the height adjustment of the feed pump is made in the first place.
  • the above-described variation of the position of the nozzle openings within the dimensions of the connection flange is at most a fine adjustment.
  • the spacers are formed as cylindrical tubes or rods of different lengths, which can be plugged or screwed or otherwise secured in corresponding recesses of the foot plate or on the underside of the pump housing.
  • the spacers can also be fixed by gluing, for example.
  • the base plate can have numerous attachment holes for different attachment variants, so that, for example, existing attachment options of the pump to be replaced can be taken over.
  • the feed pump is a circulating pump for swimming pools.
  • the pump housing has an integrated fiber catcher. The suction opening with the suction-side connecting flange is then preferably arranged on the fiber catcher.
  • the invention relates to a pump set comprising a feed pump as described above and a plurality of exchangeable suction and / or discharge nozzles and / or spacers.
  • the set of interchangeable suction and discharge nozzles and the spacers can be designed so that the connection geometry of a certain number of feed pumps used in plants can be replicated, so that these pumps through the pump set according to the invention consisting of a feed pump with the corresponding combination of nozzles and Spacers can be replaced.
  • the user of the pump can configure it by selecting a specific combination of suction / discharge nozzles and spacers so that the pump can be integrated into an existing system without significant modifications.
  • a preferred embodiment of the pump set according to the invention with a feed pump 10 is shown in an exploded view.
  • the feed pump 10 has a pump housing which may contain, for example, a centrifugal pump with an impeller (not shown in the drawing). The impeller is driven by a motor 12.
  • the feed pump has a suction opening 13 and a Pressure opening 14 on.
  • the suction opening 13 is recessed in a suction-side connecting flange 15, while the pressure opening 14 is recessed in a pressure-side connecting flange 16.
  • Different suction nozzles 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d and 17e can be attached to the suction-side connecting flange 15.
  • 16 different pressure ports 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e can be mounted on the pressure-side connecting piece.
  • these can be fastened, for example, with the screws 19 to the respective connection flange.
  • the feed pump 10 is mounted in the illustrated example on a base plate 20 having recesses 21, in which various spacers 22a, 22b, 22c can be inserted.
  • Corresponding recesses for the spacers 22a, 22b, 22c are provided on the underside of the pump housing 11 of the feed pump 10, but in Fig. 1 not visible. By appropriate choice of the length of the spacers, the height of the pump housing 11 can be changed.
  • the foot plate 20 has numerous mounting holes 23a, 23b, 23c, 23d, 23e, 23f, 23g, 23h and 23i, so that an adaptation to any existing mounting options in an existing system is possible.
  • the feed pump is a circulation pump for a filter system of a swimming pool.
  • the pump has an integrated fiber catcher 24, in which a (not visible in the figure) removable filter body is located, which is accessible via a screw-lid 25.
  • the nozzles may differ, for example, by their connection type.
  • the suction nozzle 17a has a mounting plate 26a with which the suction nozzle can be mounted on the connecting flange 15.
  • the suction nozzle 17a is provided with a connection with external thread 27a.
  • the suction nozzle 17c has a mounting plate 28c for mounting on the connection flange 15.
  • the suction connection 17c is provided with a connection with internal thread 29c.
  • the connections can also differ by their diameter and their horizontal and vertical position on the mounting plate.
  • FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the feed pump of FIG. 1 from another view. Same components are also related to the same FIG. 1 referred to reference numerals. It can be seen in this view in particular recesses 30a, 30b for the spacers 22a, 22b on the underside of the pump housing 11 of the feed pump 10. The spacer 22c is attached to a housing cross 30c.
