Definitions

  • This patent relates to peripheral pumps, single and multistage, and in particular concerns a new peripheral pump, single or multistage.
  • Peripheral centrifugal pumps are already known in the prior art comprising a pump casing to house the motor connected to a drive shaft, a sealed chamber or a volute with an inlet and outlet for the liquid to circulate, inside which at least one impeller coupled with a pump shaft rotates.
  • the transmission of motion to said pump shaft, and therefore to the impeller, is achieved through an internal magnet, coupled to said pump shaft, said internal impeller being driven by a magnet of the pump shaft, or by an external magnet.
  • said volute or component of the hydraulic pump is formed by one half by the pump body and the other half by a cover attachable to said pump body, for example through a closing ring.
  • Said cover and said pump body therefore have the dual function of supporting the pump shaft and forming the hydraulic system of said pump, creating the volute.
  • Said impeller and said magnet must rotate integrally with said pump shaft to make the pump work.
  • Peripheral pumps also include bushings or ball bearings mounted on the pump shaft to allow its rotation with respect to said volute, namely with respect to said cover and said pump body forming said volute.
  • a disadvantage of the known peripheral pumps is that the maintenance of the hydraulic system of the pump, of the internal magnet and/or the pump shaft and/or the impeller and/or the ball bearings requires precise disassembly operations, as well as the replacement of one or more of said components.
  • the subject of this patent is a new peripheral pump, single or multistage.
  • the main aim of this invention is to allow quick replacement and maintenance operations of the hydraulic group or cartridge, consisting of the impeller and internal magnet fitted on a pump shaft, and two half-volutes forming the volute of the impeller housing.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to ensure the transmission of the torque, preventing any relative rotation of the impeller or the internal magnet with respect to the pump shaft.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to allow the axial sliding of the impeller and/or the internal magnet with respect to the pump shaft.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to contain manufacturing costs, while ensuring reliability of operation.
  • the new peripheral pump single or multi-stage, comprising in reference to its main parts, a pump body equipped with a pump shaft and at least one external magnet fitted on said shaft, a pump shaft with at least one impeller fitted on it, at least one internal magnet suited to be set in motion by said external magnet and fitted on said pump shaft also, and a volute suited to house said impeller, and where said volute comprises two half-volutes suited to be joined to each other and to support said pump shaft.
  • Said internal magnet and said impeller are solidly constrained to said pump shaft by one or more locking means, and possible support bushings or bearings or jackets.
  • the coupling between the pump shaft and the impeller may be guaranteed by a shrink fit with adequate negative allowance, and/or through one or more tolerance rings or radial springs, and/or by tabs inserted between the pump shaft and impeller, which also allows a limited axial sliding between the stop rings.
  • the coupling between the pump shaft and the internal magnet is guaranteed by one or more tolerance rings or radial springs, and/or by tabs inserted between the pump shaft and the impeller and/or through one or more lock pins.
  • the pump cover On said group or cartridge comprising said pump shaft, internal magnet, impeller, half-volutes with possible bushings, the pump cover is then installed which is suited to hold said two half-volutes together and closed, preferably by compressing them together with at least one elastic means like an axial spring, an O-ring preferably made with an elastomer and also having a static seal function between said cover and the pump body, or another means.
  • at least one elastic means like an axial spring, an O-ring preferably made with an elastomer and also having a static seal function between said cover and the pump body, or another means.
  • said cover and said pump body unlike in known peripheral pumps, have no hydraulic functions and do not provide any support to the pump shaft, said functions being carried out directly by said half-volutes.
  • Said group or cartridge can be installed in the pump body by sliding it in, using one or more anti-rotation pins or keys and the shrink fitting technique, thus exploiting the negative allowance to prevent the relative rotation of the fixed components of the group, that is, said half-volutes and/or mechanical locking components.
  • Said group or cartridge is therefore quickly and easily removable from the pump body after the prior removal of just the cover, to perform any maintenance, replacement or repair operation.
  • the components of this invention can be made of metal and/or non-metal materials, such as ceramics, plastics, etc.
  • FIG. 1 shows a side view of a cross section of the new invention to show part of the pump shaft ( 2 ), the impeller ( 5 ) and the internal magnet ( 3 ).
  • FIG. 1 a shows a cross section of the group or cartridge comprising the pump shaft ( 2 ), the impeller ( 5 ) the half-volutes ( 121 , 122 ), and the internal magnet ( 3 ).
  • FIGS. 2 to 7 show possible embodiments of the new invention.
