6 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements 1n electric pumps of the type adapted to be submerged in a liquid during operation thereof, for example, within the fuelv tank of an airplane.
When it is desired to employ a booster pump in connection with a tank containing a solution, oftentimes volatile, and sometimes subject to pressure on the liquid, usually with low suction head, it is customary to mount a high speed, electrically operated centrifugal pump entirely within the tank in order to eliminate stuiiing boxes with their attendant annoyances, such as leakage and development of friction, and to save space.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a pump of the character aforesaid wherein drag is largely eliminated with consequent economy and increased efliciency in operation.
A further and more specific object of the invention is to accomplish the aforesaid result by preventing ingress of liquid to the motor during operation of the pump, and by automatically removing from the motor upon starting the same any liquid that seeps thereinto during periods of rest.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a vertical section through a pump in accordance with this invention in applied position.
Figure 2 is a reduced vertical section through a container showing a pump in accordance with this invention mounted therein.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary section similar to Figure 1 showing a slightly modified form of pump.
Referring to the drawing in detail, with particular reference to Figure 1, the numeral I indicates a motor housing which contains an armature 2 mounted on a shaft 3 supported in preferably self-lubricating bearings H adjacent the ends of the armature. As shown, the shaft 3 is provided with a reduced portion 3 upon which is mounted a centrifugal pump impeller 4 housed within a volute casing 5. The pump has an inlet 6, and discharges through an outlet passage 1 to a lead-off pipe 8, the latter being located out side the container or tank 22. Surrounding the inlet 6 is a strainer 9 having an open end abutting against a removable closure plate In for an opening in the container 22, the plate being detachably connected with the container in any suitable manner. The entire pump assembly is fixedly mounted on the plate In so that the same 2 may be readily removed for inspection or repairs.
Disposed between the casings l and 5 is an auxiliary centrifugal pump l2 having an impeller I 5 preferably in the form of a disc provided on its side faces with blades l5. During rotation of the shaft, any liquid seeping past the impeller hub clearance indicated at I1 is picked up by the impeller I5 and discharged through a check valve l6 into the container 22.
During periods of rest, liquid Will seep past the clearance into the casing l gradually filling the same, but upon starting the motor this liquid will be drawn through a passage l9 into the pump l2 and then discharged through the check valve IS.
The casing l is provided with a vent pipe l8 so that it is only necessary for the auxiliary pump I2 to overcome the static head of the liquid within the casing Any superimposed pressure, which often is very high in enclosed tanks, is balanced.
The modification shown in Figure 3 is designed for use when it is desired to flow liquid through the armature shaft bearings II to cool or lubricate the same. In this modification, the upper end of the casing I 3 has mounted thereon an cent each end of the casing. Such pumps are designated by the numerals l3 and I4, and each of which is disposed inwardly of the adjacent bearin I I. During rotation of the shaft 3, as well as during periods of rest, liquid may seep past the bearings to cool or lubricate the same, such seepage being picked up by the impellers 20 of the pumps I3 and I4 and discharged through check valves 2|. Any liquid collecting within the casing during evacuated through the passage l9 by the auxiliary pump I3.
Since the auxiliary pump is relatively small, with only a small amount of liquid at low head bein handled, the power required to drive the same is very small. Except immediately after starting the motor after a period of rest, the armature 2 turns freely in air or gas with only negligible friction whereby the efiiciency of the entire unit is increased while the power required to operate the same is decreased,
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
