Definitions
- the invention relates to a multi-shaft vacuum pump according to the preamble of first claim.
- Multi-shaft vacuum pumps of the type described here are considered dry Pump systems especially in the chemical industry and in semiconductor technology a wide range of applications. Dry pump systems are characterized by that their scoops no oil for lubrication and sealing, reduction of Dead volume or included for other purposes. This enables them to to create a completely hydrocarbon-free vacuum. To achieve optimal Pump properties can have several pump stages connected in series in one Housing.
- the drive motor is mounted outside the pump housing.
- a shaft bushing For that Coupling to the main shaft requires a shaft bushing.
- the shaft bushing Corresponding When using the pump, the shaft bushing must have a more or less expensive sealing.
- GB 809,445 describes a multi-shaft vacuum pump, where two rotors work together in a pump housing. Through their Non-contact movement creates scoops in which the pumped Medium is promoted.
- the rotor has a bell-shaped design.
- the drive system is designed as an external rotor motor, such that its Rotor parts are attached to the inner surface of the bell-shaped rotor and the stator parts are fixedly mounted opposite those within the bell-shaped rotor are.
- the gas is conveyed perpendicular to the axis direction.
- There are bearings and gear components are not separated from the pumping chamber, so that dry gas production is excluded.
- the invention has set itself the task of a dry multi-shaft vacuum pump to develop, which no longer has the disadvantages mentioned. In front everything should be aimed at a compact design with optimal pump properties which is space-saving and enables easy assembly. Other components, such as seals, sealing gas devices and oil supplies, are to be optimally adapted to the new pump concept.
- the rotors fill up a large part of the pump volume. This room is not used due to the massive construction of the rotors since then.
- Through the bell-shaped design of at least one rotor it becomes possible to drive the system fully integrated into the interior of a rotor and the one that has not been used since Recycle space. This reduces the geometric dimensions of the Pump considerably.
- the bearings are encapsulated from the scooping area, and no shaft bushings are required.
- the Supply pressure is above the range in which the sealing material blocks occurs. Because the gas is distributed in the seal and on the internal surface flows out into the gap between the sealing body and the rotor, creates a gas cushion, which causes gas exchange between the gearbox and Scooping space is prevented.
- the pump according to the invention has a compact design with optimal pump properties Construction, which is space-saving and enables easy assembly.
- Other components such as power supply, seals, coolant supply, Purge gas equipment and oil supply were the pump concept optimally adapted.
- the one wave is a working wave, hereinafter referred to as the main rotor ", and the second shaft as the control shaft, hereinafter Called "control rotor”.
- Figure 1 shows a cross section through the pump system.
- Figure 2 shows a section along the two rotors of a four-stage pump.
- a pump housing 1 which has an intake flange 2 and a gas outlet opening 3 is provided, the main rotor 4, the control rotor 5 in bearings 31, 33 and 32, 34 worn.
- the outer profile of the main rotor 4 is designed that it has two working pistons 6 which rotate in the scooping chamber 8.
- the profile of the control rotor 5 corresponds to these working pistons 6 two recesses 7.
- the rotor parts 13 are on the inner surface of the bell-shaped Main rotor 4 attached.
- the stator parts 12 of the drive system are fixedly mounted inside the rotor opposite the rotor shaft 13. Camps 31, 33 and 32, 34 are mounted on pins 9 and 10 inside the rotors. These pins are firmly connected to the housing 1 via flanges 17 and 18.
- a gear arrangement consisting of gears 14 and 15, which in Gearbox 19 are housed, the rotor movement of the main rotor 4th transferred to the control rotor 5.
- non-contact seals 22 available. These are called threaded shaft pumps designed to counteract the backflows between the stages.
- sealing gas seals are made of porous Material and allow through the material selection and shape a metered Supply of sealing gas.
- Oil is delivered to the bearing points 31, 33 and 32, 34 with the help of Threaded shaft pumps 20 and 21, which on the inside of the control rotor 5th are attached and designed symmetrically so that they are in the axial direction pump in the opposite direction and the oil is discharged in the middle. About drilling 42 and 43 in the pins 9 and 10, the oil is fed to the bearings.
