Definitions
- the present invention relates to a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates.
- the present invention is particularly adapted for use in suction of aeriform substances also containing small solid particles or wet aeriform substances that, by effect of the compression following suction, cause water condensation, which is noxious to other types of pumps.
- Pumps of this type are used in processes involving de-aeration, impregnation, boiling, vacuum condensation, distillation, drying, sterilization, filtration and solvent recovery.
- these pumps are therefore used in the sector concerning processing of plastic materials for example, where removal of the humidity that otherwise would be dangerous is required, or in all sectors in which it is necessary to create the vacuum, such as the pharmaceutical, chemical, petrochemical sectors, chemical or food distilleries, refineries, oil mills, dairies, etc.
- Single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pumps having a double axial inlet generally comprise a central body defined in the specific technical field as spacer.
- the spacer internally confines a cylindrical chamber having a regular or irregular circular section with a longitudinal extension axis that, when the pump is installed, is oriented in a horizontal direction.
- Housed in the chamber is an impeller fitted on a shaft extending parallel to the longitudinal extension axis of the chamber and spaced apart therefrom. The impeller is therefore mounted eccentrically in the chamber.
- Installed on each of the opposite axial ends of the spacer is a cover closing the chamber and having passages for admission and exhaust of the fluid to be pumped and of a working liquid.
- each of the two covers internally has a first compartment open towards a first region of the chamber through a suction opening formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber.
- the first compartment also communicates with a suction manifold through a flanged body mounted on the cover itself.
- a second compartment opens on a second region of the chamber through an exhaust or pressurized opening formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber, which exhaust opening preferably has smaller sizes than the feeding opening.
- the second compartment further communicates with an exhaust manifold through a flanged exhaust or pressurized body, mounted on the cover too.
- the flanged suction bodies of the two covers are mutually connected by said suction manifold which is defined by a pipe disposed above the spacer and preferably running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chamber. At an intermediate portion of the suction manifold there is a suction inlet designed to be connected to the environment from which the fluid is to be sucked.
- the flanged exhaust bodies of the two covers are mutually connected by said exhaust manifold which is defined by a pipe disposed above the spacer and preferably running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chamber.
- said exhaust manifold is defined by a pipe disposed above the spacer and preferably running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chamber.
- At an intermediate portion of the exhaust manifold there is an exhaust or pressurized outlet designed to be connected to the environment into which the sucked fluid is to be introduced.
- Each of the two covers is further provided with a third compartment that is open towards the chamber and communicates with a filling inlet for the working liquid which is formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber.
- the feeding inlet is defined by an attachment element mounted on the cover itself and designed to be coupled, through suitable pipes, with a feeding source for supply of said working liquid.
- the working-liquid feeding system contemplates use of pipe fittings and connecting pipes between each of the individual feed inlets present on the covers and the main element for attachment to the plant with, as a result, further complexity for installation of the pump before use.
- the impeller while being only one, is divided into two axial portions working in parallel.
- the fluid sucked by the suction inlet is shared between the two flanged suction bodies and enters the cylindrical chamber through each of the suction openings present on the covers.
- the fluid is enclosed between two successive vanes and a ring defined by the working liquid that, by effect of the centrifugal force, lies close to the cylindrical side wall of said chamber.
- the progressive volume variation created between the two vanes and the liquid ring by virtue of the eccentric rotation of the impeller relative to the spacer and the liquid ring, first creates a fluid expansion and, subsequently, a fluid compression until said fluid is ejected through the exhaust openings. The ejected fluid is then conveyed through the manifold into the single exhaust outlet.
- the Applicant has perceived that the bulkiness and weight of the pumps of known type should be reduced.
- the vertical bulkiness of known pumps is greatly affected by the presence of the suction and exhaust manifolds that must be mounted on the pump itself.
- the technical task underlying the present invention consists in conceiving a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates that is capable of substantially obviating the mentioned drawbacks.

Description
- The present invention relates to a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates.
- The present invention is particularly adapted for use in suction of aeriform substances also containing small solid particles or wet aeriform substances that, by effect of the compression following suction, cause water condensation, which is noxious to other types of pumps.
- Pumps of this type are used in processes involving de-aeration, impregnation, boiling, vacuum condensation, distillation, drying, sterilization, filtration and solvent recovery.
- By way of example, these pumps are therefore used in the sector concerning processing of plastic materials for example, where removal of the humidity that otherwise would be dangerous is required, or in all sectors in which it is necessary to create the vacuum, such as the pharmaceutical, chemical, petrochemical sectors, chemical or food distilleries, refineries, oil mills, dairies, etc.
- Single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pumps having a double axial inlet generally comprise a central body defined in the specific technical field as spacer. The spacer internally confines a cylindrical chamber having a regular or irregular circular section with a longitudinal extension axis that, when the pump is installed, is oriented in a horizontal direction. Housed in the chamber is an impeller fitted on a shaft extending parallel to the longitudinal extension axis of the chamber and spaced apart therefrom. The impeller is therefore mounted eccentrically in the chamber. Installed on each of the opposite axial ends of the spacer is a cover closing the chamber and having passages for admission and exhaust of the fluid to be pumped and of a working liquid. In particular, each of the two covers internally has a first compartment open towards a first region of the chamber through a suction opening formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber. The first compartment also communicates with a suction manifold through a flanged body mounted on the cover itself. A second compartment opens on a second region of the chamber through an exhaust or pressurized opening formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber, which exhaust opening preferably has smaller sizes than the feeding opening. The second compartment further communicates with an exhaust manifold through a flanged exhaust or pressurized body, mounted on the cover too. The flanged suction bodies of the two covers are mutually connected by said suction manifold which is defined by a pipe disposed above the spacer and preferably running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chamber. At an intermediate portion of the suction manifold there is a suction inlet designed to be connected to the environment from which the fluid is to be sucked.
- The flanged exhaust bodies of the two covers are mutually connected by said exhaust manifold which is defined by a pipe disposed above the spacer and preferably running parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chamber. At an intermediate portion of the exhaust manifold there is an exhaust or pressurized outlet designed to be connected to the environment into which the sucked fluid is to be introduced.
- Each of the two covers is further provided with a third compartment that is open towards the chamber and communicates with a filling inlet for the working liquid which is formed in a head wall delimiting the chamber. The feeding inlet is defined by an attachment element mounted on the cover itself and designed to be coupled, through suitable pipes, with a feeding source for supply of said working liquid.
- In particular the working-liquid feeding system contemplates use of pipe fittings and connecting pipes between each of the individual feed inlets present on the covers and the main element for attachment to the plant with, as a result, further complexity for installation of the pump before use.
- The impeller while being only one, is divided into two axial portions working in parallel.
- The fluid sucked by the suction inlet is shared between the two flanged suction bodies and enters the cylindrical chamber through each of the suction openings present on the covers. At each of the two axial portions of the impeller, the fluid is enclosed between two successive vanes and a ring defined by the working liquid that, by effect of the centrifugal force, lies close to the cylindrical side wall of said chamber. The progressive volume variation created between the two vanes and the liquid ring, by virtue of the eccentric rotation of the impeller relative to the spacer and the liquid ring, first creates a fluid expansion and, subsequently, a fluid compression until said fluid is ejected through the exhaust openings. The ejected fluid is then conveyed through the manifold into the single exhaust outlet.
- However, the single-stage liquid-ring pumps having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates of known type which have been briefly described above have many limits and drawbacks.
- In particular, the Applicant has perceived that the bulkiness and weight of the pumps of known type should be reduced. In fact, the vertical bulkiness of known pumps is greatly affected by the presence of the suction and exhaust manifolds that must be mounted on the pump itself.
- Furthermore, also the presence of four flanges that are required for connection of the two manifolds to the pump adversely affects the bulkiness and weight of the covers, and therefore the bulkiness and overall weight of the pump itself because the flanged feeding inlets and exhaust outlets are positioned on the covers, and the flange size is fixed and strictly linked to the flow rate of the fluid to be treated. Under this situation, the technical task underlying the present invention consists in conceiving a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates that is capable of substantially obviating the mentioned drawbacks.
- In particular, it is an aim of the present invention to propose a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates that is able to reduce the overall bulkiness and the pump weight and to optimize the suction and exhaust fluid mechanics, the provided performance being the same.
- Within the scope of this technical task, it is an important aim of the invention to conceive a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates that can be more easily transported and installed.
- The technical task mentioned and the aims specified are substantially achieved by a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates that is characterized in that it comprises one or more of the technical solutions claimed in the appended claims.
- The description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of a single-stage liquid-ring vacuum pump having a double axial inlet with flat-distribution plates in accordance with the invention is now given by way of non-limiting example and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:

central body 2 or spacer, better shown inFIGS. 2 and 6 . Thecentral body 2 has acylindrical side wall 3 of circular or substantially circular section, internally delimiting a cylindrical or substantiallycylindrical chamber 4 having a longitudinal extension axis “X”. - Housed in
chamber 4 is animpeller 5 fitted on ashaft 6, said shaft extending parallel to the longitudinal extension axis “X” of the chamber. The longitudinal axis “Y” of theshaft 6 is spaced from the longitudinal extension axis “X” of the chamber (FIG. 4 ). In known manner, theimpeller 5 is therefore eccentrically mounted inchamber 6, as better shown inFIG. 5 . Oneend 6 a of theshaft 6 emerges from the pump to enable connection to a motor, not shown. - Formed at each of the two opposite
axial ends 7 of thecentral body 2, i.e. on opposite faces of the cylinder defined by thebody 2 itself, is a suction opening 8 and an exhaust opening 9 (FIG. 2 ). - The
central body 2 further has an opening 10 (only visible inFIG. 7 ) at each of said twoaxial ends 7, said opening being designed to feed a working liquid 11 that will define the liquid ring. - In the preferred embodiment herein shown, these

auxiliary exhaust openings 9 a known by themselves and therefore not further described can be present next to theexhaust opening 9, said exhaust opening 9 having smaller sizes than the suction opening 8, as visible inFIGS. 2 and 4 .

suction manifold 15 andexhaust manifold 17 are integrated into thecentral body 2. Preferably, thefeed manifold 19 too is integrated into thecentral body 2. - In more detail, as better shown in
FIGS. 2 , 5 and 6, thesuction manifold 15 andexhaust manifold 17 are formed close to thecylindrical side wall 3 of thecentral body 2 and are preferably located close to an upper portion of thepump 1, considering the installedpump 1 resting on the ground with its longitudinal axis “X” disposed horizontally. - The two
manifolds - In the preferred embodiment herein illustrated, the
suction manifold 15 andexhaust manifold 17 are formed of one piece construction, by melting for example, with thecentral body 2. The manifolds are formed in the thickness of thecentral body 2 wall. - The geometric configuration thus taken enables the suction and exhaust fluid mechanics to be optimized because generation of imbalances or disequilibrium between the incoming and outgoing fluids is avoided.

suction manifold 15, asuction duct 23 of circular section is present and it preferably extends vertically from saidmanifold 15 and terminates with thesuction inlet 16. - A
flange 24 surrounds thesuction inlet 16, is also preferably formed of one piece construction with thesuction duct 23 and thesuction manifold 15, and is used to connect thepump 1 to the environment from which the fluid 14 is to be drawn. - Likewise, at an axially intermediate portion of the

feed manifold 19 is confined by aconvex portion 26 of the outer surface of thecylindrical wall 3 and by anarched wall 27 having opposite edges oriented as generatrices of thecylindrical wall 3 and joined to thecylindrical wall 3 itself (FIG. 6 ). - An
attachment element 28 is present at an axially intermediate portion of thefeed manifold 19 and it extends from saidmanifold 15 and terminates with the feedinginlet 20 for supply of the working liquid 11. - Said
attachment element 28 too is preferably formed unitary, by melting for example, with thecentral body 2. - The
wall 27 can have different shapes and the outer surface of thecylindrical wall 3 can be such shaped as to give the manifold the most appropriate section. - To enable passage of fluid 14 from the
suction manifold 15 to thesuction opening 8 and from theexhaust opening 9 to theexhaust manifold 17,pump 1 comprises a pair ofcovers 29 each abutting against one of theends 7 of the central body 2 (FIGS. 1 and 2 ). - Each
cover 29 is mounted on one of theplates 12, said one plate therefore being interposed between thecentral body 2 and cover 29 (FIG. 4 ); in this way the assembly tightness to the fluids is simplified because only a hermetic tightness between thecover 29 andplate 12 and between theplate 12 andcentral body 2 is required to be ensured. In particular the necessity of seals simultaneously operating on the three parts is avoided, which would make the assembling process more complicated and would impair the overall pump reliability. - The two covers 29, two
plates 12 andcentral body 2 are pack-wise closed by means of tie-rods 29 a passing through slots formed in thecovers 29 themselves (FIG. 1 ). - In addition, as better shown in
FIGS. 2 and 7 , each of the twoplates 12 has afirst aperture 30 in register with thesuction manifold 15 and shaped like the cross section of this manifold 15, asecond aperture 31 in register with theexhaust manifold 17 and shaped like the cross section of this manifold 17 and athird aperture 32 in register with thefeed manifold 19 and shaped like the cross section of thismanifold 19. The first, second andthird apertures FIG. 7 ). -
Cover 29 on aconcave face 33 thereof facing therespective plate 12 delimits a first compartment 34 (FIGS. 2 and 8 ) that, whenpump 1 is assembled, is in fluid communication with therespective suction opening 8 ofplate 12 and with thesuction manifold 15, asecond compartment 35 in fluid communication with therespective exhaust opening 9 ofplate 12 and with theexhaust manifold 17 and athird compartment 36 in fluid communication with thefeed manifold 19 for the working liquid 11 and with therespective opening 10 inplate 12 to supply said working liquid 11. - Said compartments 34, 35, 36 are separated from each other by
baffles 37 and delimited by aperipheral edge 38 ofcover 29 and aninner edge 39, saidinner edge 39 surrounding acentral hole 40 designed to receive the shaft 6 (FIGS. 8 and 4 ).Said shaft 6 further passes through acentral hole 40 a formed in eachplate 12. - Each
plate 12 has opposite flat surfaces, is coupled with one of theends 7 of thecentral body 2 on a single plane and is further coupled with therespective cover 29 on a single plane. This flat coupling without coupling locators enables the working operations to be simplified, the production times and costs to be improved and the sealing capacity of the pump to be greatly increased. - In fact, the
peripheral edge 38,inner edge 39 and baffles 37 ofcover 29 abut againstplate 12 and are coplanar. - In addition, as shown in
FIGS. 4 and 6 , anend edge 41 of thecylindrical wall 3 and endedges 41 of thearched walls plate 12. - Each
plate 12 has therespective suction opening 8 facingchamber 4 and thefirst compartment 34, therespective exhaust opening 9 facingchamber 4 and thesecond compartment 35 and therespective opening 10 for supply of the working liquid 11 facingchamber 4 and thethird compartment 36. - The
first aperture 30 ofplate 12 further faces thefirst compartment 34 and thesuction manifold 15, thesecond aperture 31 faces thesecond compartment 35 and theexhaust manifold 17 and thethird aperture 32 faces thethird compartment 36 and thefeed manifold 19. - Referring in particular to
FIG. 4 , a flange orbox 42 carrying abearing 43 which supportsshaft 6 is housed in each of theholes 40 ofcovers 29. - Installed between each
flange 42 and theshaft 6 is arotating sealing element 44 known by itself, which lies between theimpeller 5 and therespective bearing 43. Possible liquid leakages are collected by means of a pipe fitting 45 positioned inflange 42, said pipe fitting opening into saidflange 42 close to theshaft 6 between the sealingelement 44 and therespective bearing 43. Interposed between the bearing 43 and pipe fitting 45 is anannular gasket 46. - The collected liquid 11 can be recycled by connecting said
pipe fittings 45 to a circuit for re-introduction of the leaked liquid 11 into thefeed manifold 19. - Each of the two covers 29 has a pair of
support feet 47 provided with holes for anchoring thepump 1 to a base. - Finally, as shown in the preferred embodiment in
FIG. 4 , thepump 1 comprises an auxiliary flange, or bearing support, 48 located at theend 42 a opposite to theend 6 a of theshaft 6 to be connected to the motor and housed in themain flange 42 in coaxial relationship. - The
auxiliary flange 48 carries thebearing 43 supporting theshaft 6 and is axially adjustable relative to themain flange 42, so as to easily adjust the axial position of theshaft 6 andimpeller 5 inchamber 4. - In particular, adjusting
screws 49, not shown in detail, are used to move theauxiliary flange 48 within themain flange 42 along an axial direction, while lockingscrews 50 lock the twoflanges - The pump in accordance with the invention achieves the intended purposes and offers many advantages.
- In fact, the supplied performance being the same, the pump of the invention is much more compact and lighter in weight than the pumps of the known art. The weight reduction as compared with pumps of same performance is about 30% and the reduction in volume is about 40%.
- This result has been achieved because said suction and exhaust manifolds with flanged inlets and outlets are integrated into the central body and a single-attachment feed is provided; in addition, due to the presence of said single-attachment feed, the flanges for coupling to the manifolds and the feeding inlet present in covers of known pumps have been eliminated. Consequently, the two covers have been greatly reduced in size and bulkiness which has brought about an important reduction in weights and materials.
- Furthermore, due to the reduced weight and bulkiness, the pump of the invention can be transported and installed in a simpler and quicker manner.
- Installation is also simplified as a result of the fact that the integrated manifolds are already in place and must not be mounted in situ.
- In addition, a feeding integrated with a single attachment element does not require pipe fittings and particular plant connections.
- The compactness in an axial direction of the pump of the invention also enables the shaft length of the impeller to be reduced, as compared with known pumps of same performance. This reduction, in addition to involving a decrease in the shaft weight, also gives rise to a reduction in the shaft bending during rotation and, therefore, to an important vibration reduction.
- The vibration reduction brings about, as a consequence, an increase in the fatigue life of the pump components and a decreased operational noise.
