Definitions

  • This invention relates to a dry vacuum pump.
  • Dry vacuum pumps are widely used in industrial processes to provide a clean and/or low -pressure environment for the manufacture of products. Applications include the pharmaceutical, semiconductor and flat panel manufacturing industries. Such pumps include an essentially dry (or oil free) pumping mechanism, but generally also include some components, such as bearings and transmission gears, for driving the pumping mechanism that require lubrication in order to be effective. Examples of dry pumps include Roots, Northey (or "claw"), screw and scroll pumps. Dry pumps incorporating Roots and/or Northey rotor components are commonly multi-stage positive displacement pumps comprising a stator component defining a plurality of pumping chambers each housing a respective pair of intermeshing rotor components. The rotor components are located on contra-rotating shafts, and may have the same type of profile in each chamber or the profile may change from chamber to chamber.
  • Iron castings have for a long time been used in the manufacture of stator and rotor components for dry vacuum pumps.
  • relatively corrosive gases such as chlorine, boron trichloride, hydrogen bromide, fluorine and chlorine trifluoride
  • Such corrosion can lead to equipment failure, leakage of process gases and possible process contamination, in addition to the costs associated with the replacement of the pump or the corroded parts and consequential process downtime.
  • the present invention provides at least one dry vacuum pump stator component, wherein the stator component is formed from silicon-molybdenum (SiMo) ductile iron alloy.
  • the present invention also provides at least one dry vacuum pump rotor component, wherein the rotor component is formed from silicon-molybdenum (SiMo) ductile iron alloy.
  • the present invention also provides a dry vacuum pump comprising a stator component and at least one rotor component, wherein the stator component and/or said at least one rotor component are formed from silicon-molybdenum (SiMo) ductile iron alloy.
  • SiMo silicon-molybdenum
  • the alloy may contain silicon in an amount from about 3.5 to about 5 wt %.
  • the alloy may contain molybdenum in an amount from about 0.4 to about 1 wt %.
  • the stator component may house first and second intermeshing rotor components adapted for counter-rotation within the stator component.
  • the rotor components have a Roots profile, although they could have a Northey or screw profile as required.
  • the pump may be in the form of a multi-stage pump in which the stator component defines a plurality of interconnected pumping chambers arranged in series and each housing respective rotor components formed from SiMo ductile iron alloy.
  • the intermeshing rotor components may be located on respective shafts, with the pump comprising a gear assembly for transmitting torque from one shaft to another, with at least one gear of the gear assembly preferably being formed from SiMo ductile iron alloy.
  • the pump may be in the form of a scroll pump in which the stator component comprises a fixed scroll member having an end plate with a first spiral wrap extending therefrom, and said at least one rotor component comprises an orbital scroll member having an end plate with a second spiral wrap extending therefrom to intermesh with the first spiral wrap.
  • the scroll members is preferably formed from SiMo iron alloy.
  • Figure 1 is a cross-section through a multi-stage dry vacuum pump
  • Figure 2 is a view along line A-A in Figure 1.
  • a multi-stage dry vacuum pump 10 comprises a stator component 12, preferably formed from silicon-molybdenum (SiMo) ductile iron alloy, having a series of walls that define a plurality of pumping chambers 14, 16, 18, 20, 22.
  • An inlet conduit 24 for conveying gas to be pumped to the inlet pumping chamber 14, and an exhaust conduit 26 for exhausting pumped gas from the exhaust pumping chamber 22, are also formed in the stator 12.
  • Passages 28, 30, 32 and 34 formed in the stator 12 connect the pumping chambers 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 in series.
  • the stator 12 houses a first shaft 36 and, spaced therefrom and parallel thereto, a second shaft 38. Bearings 40 for supporting the shafts 36, 38 are provided in the end plates 42, 44 of the stator 12.
  • One of the shafts 36 is connected to a drive motor 46, the shafts being coupled together by means of timing gears 47 so that in use the shafts 36,38 rotate at the same speed but in opposite directions, as indicated by arrows 48 and 50 in Figure 2.
  • a gear box 52 attached to the side of the pump 10 contains oil 54 for lubricating the timing gears 47.
  • the timing gears 47 may be formed from SiMo ductile iron alloy.
  • the shafts 36, 38 support respective rotor components 56, 58, which may also be formed from SiMo ductile iron alloy.
  • the rotors 56, 58 have a Roots-type profile within each pumping chamber, although a mixture of Roots and Northey-type profiles may be provided within the pump 10.
  • the rotors 56, 58 are located in each pumping chamber relative to an internal surface of the stator 12 such that the rotors 56, 58 can act in an intermeshing manner known per se.
  • gas is urged into the pump 10 through the inlet conduit 24 and passes into the inlet pumping chamber 14.
  • the gas is compressed by the rotors 56, 58 located within the inlet pumping chamber 14, and is fed by passage 28 into the next pumping chamber 16.
  • the gas fed in the pumping chamber 16 is similarly compressed by the rotors 56, 58 therein, and fed by the passage 30 to the next pumping chamber 18. Similar gas compressions take place in the pumping chambers 18, 20 and 22, with the pumped gas finally being exhaust from the pump 10 through exhaust conduit 26.
  • the SiMo ductile iron alloy preferably contains silicon from about 3.5 to about 5 wt %, and/or molybdenum in an amount from about 0.4 to about 1 wt %.
  • SiMo ductile iron alloy to manufacture the stator component 12 and/or the rotor components 56, 58 of the pump 10 makes the pump 10 particularly suitable for pumping corrosive gases such as chlorine, boron trichloride, hydrogen bromide, fluorine and chlorine trifluoride.
  • SiMo ductile iron alloy has superior hardness, specific strength ratio and F 2 corrosion susceptibility. This can enable the stator and rotor components, and the timing gears, to have relatively high wear and corrosion resistance with reduced component weight and costs for equivalent or improved performances.
