Wilfley and Sons Inc., Denver, 6010., a corporation of Colorado Application June 11, 1940, Serial No. 339,920 '1 claims. (on. 28
This invention relates to improved sealing means for centrifugal pumps. More particularly, this is an improvement over the construction shown in United States Patent No. 1,976,532, issued to Elmer R. Wilfiey under date of October 9, 1934.
Centrifugal pumps have commonly been provided with stufling boxes around the shafts where they enter the casing. However, in pumping liquids containing abrasive materials, such as sand, or in pumping slurry, corrosive chemicals and the like, it has been found highly desirable to eliminate the stuffing box and to use instead, a centrifugally actuated seal around the shaft, which provides an opening entirely around the shaft during operation of the pump, but which automatically seals the shaft when the pump is not operating.
It is an object of the present invention to provide centrifugally actuated sealing means for a centrifugal pump, the actuating mechanism of which is completely separated from the pump casing by means of a rigid head for complete protection.
Another object is to provide such sealing means that seats with any back pressure that may exist in the pump, in contradistinction from seating against such pressure.
Other objects and advantages reside in details of design and construction which will be more fully disclosed in the following description and in the drawings wherein like parts have been similarly designated and in which:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary sectional view of a centrifugal pump which embodies a preferred form of this inventive concept;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary sectional view illustrating certain novel details of the structure illustrated in Figure 1 and drawn to a larger scale;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary sectional view of another type centrifugal pump in which is embodied a modified form of this invention; and
Figure 4 is a sectional view of the sealing element shown in Figures 1 and 2 and drawn to a larger scale. a
In order to illustrate reductions to practice of this invention, the accompanying drawings are made a part hereof and will be described in some particularity. However, these illustrations are intended to present typical examples and should not be construed to expressor to imply any limitation to the invention, the scope of which is, in reality, measured by the appended claims.
Referring first to Figure 1, reference character 55 5 denotes a pump case having an inlet through structure 6 and provided with a discharge outlet at I. A runner 8 is mounted upon a shaft 9 for rotation within the case 5. The shaft 9 is suitably journalled in the housing H) which is connected with the pump assembly by means of a short cylinder l2.
A sealing element I3 is mounted around the shaft 9, and in this example, this sealing element is a combination sleeve and flange made of rubher which may, if desired, be reinforced with fabric. This sealing element may be constructed of material other than rubber, but rubber has been found highly satisfactory. The sleeve portion of this sealing element has an annular fold I3a which enables the flange portion to move axially with reference to the shaft without moving the entire sealing element as a whole. The shaft 9 is not mounted for axial movement, as
has been the case in certain other patented struc-- ture pertaining to this art.
The flange portion of the sealing element it is attached to an axially movable cylindrical member 14, and this flange portion of the sealing element is in contact with a cooperating seat l5 when the pump is not in actual use.
A spring I6 urges the member M in a direction to draw the flange of the sealing member 53 securely against its seat I5, but when the shaft 9 is rotating, weights ll that are pivotally mounted on labyrinth collar 18, move outwardly, thus urging their respective fingers I9 against projections 20 on member M, to move the sealing element it away from its seat I5 and to provide a complete opening around the shaft 9. When rotation of the shaft 9 ceases, the spring I6 will act again to bring the sealing member l3 against its seat 45.
Any material being pumped that slips or leaks back through the opening around the shaft 9 during operation will pass into the interior |2a of the short cylinder l2 and thence through an opening 2! through the wall of said cylinder to the atmosphere.
A collar 22 is securely mounted upon the cylindrical member I4 for conjoint {rotation therewith and is provided with radial arms 23, thus tending to prevent accumulation of material within the short cylinder 12 by constantly acting upon it to prevent caking or clogging and tending to throw it toward and out of the opening 2|. It is manifest that sealing member l3, the cylindrical member H, the labyrinth collar I8, the centrifugal weights I1 and the cleaner collar 22 all rotate conjointly with the shaft 9. The element 22-43 best illustrated in Figure 2, may aptly be called a rotary scavenger.
A stationary head 33 extends from the interior of the short cylinder I 3 inwardiy to a close fit around the cylindrical member I3. This provides a rigid, stationary head or partition completely separating and protecting the centrifugal mechanism from contamination by the material being pumped.
This is an important advantage because sand or corrosive chemicals or the like, would seriously damage the centrifugal mechanism back of the head 33 if it were allowed to come in contact therewith.
As hereinbefore set forth, the spring i3 acts to move the sealing member l3 against its stationary seat I! when the rotation of the pump ceases and this seating of the seal is further and greatly facilitated by any back pressure that may be within the pump case. Such back pressure may be relatively high, due to a hydrostatic head in the standpipe that is ordinarily connected with the pump discharge. Threaded collar l3a provides a factor of adjustment for the compression of the spring l6.
Thus is provided a self-cleaning centrifugally actuated seal for a centrifugal pump which seats 7 with back pressure in the pump casing rather than against such pressure and whose precision centrifugal means are securely protected against damage from the material being pumped by a solid stationary head.
The preferred form of rubber sealing element i3 is illustrated in detail in Figure 4 and comprises a gasket-like flange portion l3b integrally connected with a shaft fitting sleeve portion i3c through the intermediary of a relatively thin wall section in which is the fold I3a. The inner end of the sleeve portion I3 is undercut back as at l3d, thus greatly facilitating the flexibility of the thin wall section and holding the overall axial length of the sealing element to a minimum. This arrangement. provides for movement of the flange or gasket-like portion D with reference to the sleeve portion i3a without disrupting the complete seal effected around the shaft by the sleeve portion.
Referring to Figure 3, the pump casing 33 is provided with an intake 3|, and a runner element 32 is mounted for rotation conjointly with a shaft 33. A labyrinth collar 34 supports centrifugal weights 35 that are pivotally mounted thereon for movement by centrifugal force. Each weight 35 is provided with a finger 33 which is positioned to contact an axially movable sleeve 31 which in turn abuts a sealing member 33 which is urged against a seat 33 by means of a compression spring acting through the intermediary ofaringll.
When the shaft 33, together with labyrinth collar 33 and th weights 33, rotate, said weights 35 will move outwardly under centrifugal force, thus urging the movable sleeve 31 toward the sealing member 33 to move it away from its seat 33 and open an annular passage leading from the interior of the Dump case 33 to the space immediately surrounding the shaft 33 which in turn is in communication with the atmosphere. when rotation ceases, the spring 33 will act to reseat the seal 33 on its seat 33 and this movement will be facilitated by any back pressure that may exist within the pump case. The inherent flexibility of the sealing member 33 permits movement of its sealing surface without its displacement as a whole.
The construction illustrated in Figure 3 is intended for use where the liquid being pumped is of a less damaging nature than the material that would ordinarily pass through the pump illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.
