- Pump assemblies of the type described are particularly suitable for promoting media that are highly risk of contamination or hazardous, the outlet from the pump assembly should therefore be avoided, or where entry of foreign matter into the medium to be prevented.
- An essential feature of the delivery principle is that the mass flow delivered by the pump assemblies, which is based on displacement by means of the membrane, is dependent on the backpressure that the viscous medium itself opposes to the movement of the membrane in the delivery chamber. The higher the back pressure or the viscosity of the viscous medium in the delivery chamber and downstream of it, the lower is the throughput through the diaphragm pump in the normal case.

- the invention is based on the approach that the design-related disadvantages of diaphragm pumps can be compensated by means of a targeted compressed air flow control of the working medium for driving the membrane, so that the controlled diaphragm pump is able to promote a substantially constant mass flow, and in particular mass flow fluctuations due to changed viscosities or compensate for a change in the back pressure of the pumped medium.
- the higher the viscosity or the backpressure of the pumped medium in the delivery chamber and downstream thereof, the higher can be regulated by means of the control valve arrangement, the amount of compressed air in the working chamber to prevent a decrease in the mass flow.

- the diaphragm pump 7 is in this embodiment, a double diaphragm pump and has a first delivery chamber 8a and a second delivery chamber 8b. Furthermore, the diaphragm pump 7 has a first working chamber 10a, which is separated from the first conveying chamber 8a by means of a first diaphragm 20a. The diaphragm pump 7 further has a second working chamber 10b, which is separated from the second conveying chamber 8b by means of a second diaphragm 20b.
- the first and second diaphragms 20a, b are mechanically connected by means of a connecting rod 12 and thus are moved such that movement of the first diaphragm 20a into the delivery chamber 8a is accompanied by movement of the second diaphragm 20b out of the delivery chamber 8b.
- a connecting rod 12 moves such that movement of the first diaphragm 20a into the delivery chamber 8a is accompanied by movement of the second diaphragm 20b out of the delivery chamber 8b.
- an increase in volume or volume reduction of the respective chambers is generated.
- An increase in volume of the delivery chamber is accompanied by a simultaneous reduction in volume of the adjacent working chamber and vice versa.
- the working chambers are fluid-conductively connected to a control chamber 14, which in turn (not shown) in fluid communication with the second port 4 of the pump assembly is in communication and is supplied by this with pressurized air.
- a control element 16 alternately establishes a fluid-conducting connection between the first working chamber 10a and the control chamber 14, or between the second working chamber 10b and the control chamber 14, while the other working chamber is separated from the control chamber 14. In the state where the working chamber is separated from the control chamber, air in the respective working chamber is exhausted through an outlet (not shown). Depending on the position of the control element 16, therefore, the pressure of the working medium is applied to the first or second membrane 20a, b and ensures a displacement of the viscous medium from the respective delivery chamber 8a, b.
- the working medium is introduced into the first working chamber 10a.
- the first diaphragm 20a reduces the volume in the first delivery chamber 8a, bringing a first sealing element 18a into a closed position, and a second sealing element 18b into an open position, so that viscous medium can be removed from the first delivery chamber 8a in the direction of the outlet.
- a third sealing element 18c is brought into an open position by a negative pressure arising in the second delivery chamber 8b, and a fourth sealing element 18d is brought into a closed position, so that viscous medium, which is supplied from the first port 2, can flow into the second delivery chamber 8b.
- the pump assembly 1 is part of a device 100 for producing surface coating agents such as paints for metallic and plastic surfaces.
- the device 100 has a source 103 of a viscous medium to be delivered with constituents to be dispersed, which is fluid-conductively connected to the first port 2 of the pump arrangement 1 by means of a hose line 105.
- the apparatus 100 has a source 1 15 of a pressurized working medium, for example compressed air, for the diaphragm pump 7, which is fluidly connected by means of a hose line 1 17 with the second port 4 of the pump assembly.
- a pressurized working medium for example compressed air
- the apparatus 100 further comprises a dispersing device 125, for example an agitating mill, which is fluid-conductively connected to the third connection 6 of the pump line 1 and into which the pump arrangement 1 transfers the viscous medium. 170062
- the viscous medium is provided in the source 103, which is added either there or already in an upstream step with components to be dispersed.
- the diaphragm pump 7 of the pump assembly is pneumatically driven by means of the working fluid from the source 1 15 and sucks the viscous medium from the source 103 at.
- the pulsation damper 9 smoothes the mass flow of the viscous medium emerging from the diaphragm pump 7.
- the preferably permanently running during operation of the pump assembly 1 sensor 1 1 detects the emerging from the diaphragm pump 7 flow rate of the viscous medium and reports this as actual value w, to the electronic controller member 23.
- the electronic controller member 23 calculates the deviation of w, to a previously entered setpoint w s and controls in response to a detected deviation, the open position of the control valve assembly 21 to either increase or decrease the amount of compressed air in the working chamber of the diaphragm pump 7.
- the control mechanism responds with a corresponding increase in the amount of compressed air in the working chamber to ensure a constant mass flow at the third port 6, from where the viscous medium is transferred to the disperser 125 to there To generate dispersion of the viscous medium and its components.
- Plants such as that shown in FIG. 1 are often run in a circle, indicated by the broken line in FIG. In these systems, due to the continuously changing viscosity of the pumped medium in the course of the circle promotion, the advantages according to the invention are particularly significant.
- a diaphragm pump for example, a 1, 5 “or 2" compressed air diaphragm pump manufacturer WP-ARO, type PD15A-BSS-STT (or PD20A-BSS-STT) is used.
- the pulsation damper used is, for example, a 3 "pulsation damper of the manufacturer WP-ARO, type SP30A-BSS-T.
- the sensor 1 1 is preferably a mass flowmeter manufacturer Micro Motion, type CMFS075.
- a typical application of a pump arrangement according to the invention is the production of surface coating agents such as paints. I 170062 II
- Paint formulations contain, in addition to color pigments and binders, a multiplicity of further constituents to be dispersed, such as fillers, additives, auxiliaries and additives.
- fillers are calcium carbonate (chalk), barium sulfate (baryte) and kaolin.
- chalk calcium carbonate
- barium sulfate baryte
- kaolin a group consisting of calcium carbonate (chalk), barium sulfate (baryte) and kaolin.
- Paint formulations typically contain additives and / or auxiliaries, by the addition of which properties of the paint formulation or of a paint film formed therefrom are influenced. By adding wetting and dispersing aids, siccatives, antioxidants, etc. the processability of coating formulations is influenced. Hardening accelerators lead to a faster curing of the paint film. Plasticizers reduce the softening range of the binder and provide better elasticity of the paint films. Antimicrobial additives or biocidal substances improve the shelf life of paint formulations by preventing paint from being rendered unusable by microorganisms. Additives increase the shelf life and make processing easier.
- biocidal substances are intended to prevent the paint in the container from becoming unusable due to microorganisms.
- an aqueous test-conveying medium to which a typical for the formulation to be delivered viscosity, a thickener is metered in
- commercially available thickeners can be used , eg Thickening agents available under the trade name "Acrysol" can be reproduced here by continuously metering in the thickener as an example of the change in viscosity of a coating formulation to be dispersed on a stirred-mill mill.
