Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a double-piston pump for conveying highly viscous media according to the feature in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a double-piston pump is known in which two parallel pistons, also called working pistons, transport a highly viscous medium via the pressure and suction sides.
  • Such piston pumps are used in particular in agricultural facilities to transport highly viscous media such as animal excrement, liquid manure or solid manure as well as substrate from energy crops.
  • the media to be transported have almost solid properties and also contain clumps, impurities and foreign bodies such as stones.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a piston pump which has little wear during operation, requires little maintenance and, in particular, enables filtering or separation of foreign bodies during operation.
  • the double piston pump according to the invention is suitable for transporting highly viscous media. It has a base housing. Two pistons, also called working pistons, are arranged on the base housing. These pistons run in a working cylinder. The pistons can accommodate a relatively large volume. One piston always works in suction mode and the other piston in pressure mode. When the top dead center or bottom dead center is reached, the work allocations change. The working piston from suction mode goes into pressure mode and the piston coming from pressure mode goes into suction mode. The high-viscosity medium is sucked in from a suction channel and is then located in the cylinder of the working piston and is pushed out via the pressure side with the next stroke.
  • an axially displaceable control piston is provided, which is arranged in the base housing.
  • the base housing preferably has three adjacent working chambers.
  • the control piston is arranged to be axially displaceable, at least partially, through the working chambers.
  • the working chambers are thereby connected by the control piston separated in such a way that two working chambers are connected to one another in a fluid-technical manner and the third working chamber is separated from this in a fluid-technical manner. If the control piston is moved from an axial movement to the opposite axial position, a middle working chamber, which was initially separated from the third working chamber, is connected to it in a fluid-technical manner.
  • the other working chamber which was previously connected to the middle working chamber, is separated from it in a fluid-technical manner. This ensures that the suction operation and pressure operation of the working piston are controlled.
  • the working chambers are preferably arranged next to one another in the base housing in relation to the horizontal direction.
  • the working chambers are arranged above a central intake chamber.
  • the central intake chamber is connected to an external chamber in a fluid-technical manner.
  • the intake chamber is connected to or separated from the central working chamber via the control piston.
  • cylinder liners are provided, in particular two cylinder liners are arranged axially spaced from each other.
  • Each cylinder liner preferably has recesses or openings running radially around a central length section, depending on the position of the control piston.
  • the control piston itself has two piston heads located opposite each other at the axial ends.
  • the piston heads slide in the cylinder liners. This sliding occurs due to the liquid content of the highly viscous medium.
  • the radially circumferential openings of the cylinder liners are in particular designed to be wave-shaped all the way around. This offers two advantages according to the invention, which are explained below.
  • a first advantage of the wave-shaped circumferential opening is the fact that when the control piston is moved from one position to the other, Waveform here a scissor mechanism occurs.
  • the highly viscous medium and in particular solids or clumps in the medium are broken down or removed from the liner according to the scissor principle. Clogging or blocking is thus avoided and the abrasive wear that acts on the control piston is also reduced.
  • the double piston pump according to the invention can therefore run error-free and with little maintenance, even in continuous delivery operation.
  • the horizontally arranged control piston has another fundamental advantage.
  • a pressure equalization occurs from the pressure side or overpressure side to the suction side or underpressure side.
  • This pressure equalization is controlled in particular according to the invention in such a way that a short pressure pulse occurs.
  • This pressure pulse sediments existing solids, in particular foreign bodies and particularly preferably stones or petrified substances, in such a way that they sink into the suction chamber located below in the vertical direction. This makes it possible to filter solids and foreign substances at the same time with the double piston pump. These foreign substances or stones can then be removed via inspection hatches or by opening the base housing.
  • the pressure pulse can be generated in such a way that the axial distance between the openings of the respective cylinder liner of the piston head of the control piston is slightly greater than the axial length of the piston head.
  • these are the two maximum deflections of the waveform.
  • the cross-sectional area of the suction chamber is more than 2 times, preferably more than 2.5 times, in particular 3 times is large compared to the cross-section of the suction line.
  • the inflowing medium will therefore not pass through the entire cross-section of the suction chamber when flowing through the suction chamber into the work chambers above. This allows sedimented or deposited stones to collect on the bottom without being carried away by the flow.
  • the pump is designed to be low-wear and insensitive to foreign bodies. It has a high suction power, which always corresponds to 0.6 to 0.8 bar. Overall, pressures of up to 10 bar are possible with low maintenance costs and flow reliability.
  • the double piston pump can provide 55 m 3 /h of highly viscous medium with an 11 kW drive.
  • FIG. 1 shows the double piston pump 1 according to the invention in a front view.
  • the double piston pump 1 has a base housing 2 arranged centrally at the bottom in relation to the vertical direction V.
  • the base housing 2 has the configuration of a trough.
  • a central suction chamber 3 is arranged at the bottom in relation to the vertical direction V.
  • at least three working chambers 4, 6 are arranged, which are not shown in detail, with a centrally arranged working chamber 5 on a pressure side having a discharge line 7 for discharging of the sucked-in or pumped medium.
  • the two external working chambers are each connected to the suction chamber 3 in a fluid-technical manner. Between them is a control piston 13 (not shown in detail here).
  • the control piston 13 is mounted so that it can be moved axially in the horizontal direction H.
  • Two pistons 8, 9, in particular working pistons, are arranged on the base housing 2.
  • the pistons 8, 9 are used for sucking in and pumping out the sucked-in medium using excess pressure.
  • Stylized hydraulic piston rods are mounted in a housing above the pistons 8, 9 in relation to the vertical direction V, which cause the pistons to retract or extend in the axial direction.
  • Mounting arms 11 are arranged to protrude from the sides. Hydraulic cylinders 16 are also arranged in the mounting arms 11. The hydraulic cylinders 16 serve for the axial movement of the control piston 13 (not shown in detail) in the horizontal direction H.
  • FIG. 2 A medium (not shown in detail) is sucked into the central suction chamber 3 via the suction line 12.
  • the control piston 13 shown here has two piston heads 14 which are axially spaced apart from one another.
  • the piston heads 14 are coupled to one another via a piston rod 15.
  • Hydraulic drives arranged on the left and right cause the control piston 13 to be moved in the horizontal direction H.
  • the right-hand piston 9 relative to the image plane is in pressure mode
  • the left-hand piston 8 relative to the image plane is in suction mode.
  • a respective cylinder 17 of the pistons 8, 9 is thus either sucked full of a medium in the case of the piston 8 or, in the case of the piston 9, the medium is pushed out of the piston 9.
  • the working chambers 5 and 6 are fluidically connected to one another, so that the medium is pumped out of the cylinder 17 of the piston 9 and conveyed through the working chamber 6 into the central, middle working chamber 5 and then into the discharge line 7.
  • the left piston head 14 separates the left working chamber 4 from the central working chamber 5.
  • the central suction chamber 3 or the suction line 12 and the piston 8 are fluidically connected to one another, so that suction operation takes place here.
  • the working direction is changed.
  • the left piston 8 in relation to the image plane then presses the previously sucked medium into the discharge line 7.
  • the Piston 9 sucks in new medium.
  • control piston 13 would be moved completely to the left image plane, although this is not shown.
  • the working chambers 4 and 5 are then fluidically connected to one another and the working chamber 5 is separated from the working chamber 6.
  • two cylinder liners 18 are arranged at a distance from one another in the axial direction.
  • These cylinder liners 18 have recesses or holes running radially around a middle length section 19. These holes can also be referred to as slots.
  • Remaining webs 20 connect a left and right part of the cylinder liner 18 to one another. The respective piston head 14 of the control piston 13 passes through these recesses when the control piston 13 is adjusted in the axial direction.
  • the recesses are provided with a wave shape 21 running radially around. If, contrary to expectations, dirt or clumps get between the edge of the recess on the wave form 21 and the piston head 14, they are sheared off according to the principle of scissors. This measure according to the invention prevents the piston 13 from jamming.
  • FIG. 3 A second aspect essential to the invention is Figure 3 shown.
  • the control piston 13 is in a middle position, so that a transition from the suction side to the pressure side can be seen on the respective piston 8, 9.
  • This pressure pulse 22 makes it possible to press impurities present in the medium, in particular sediments 23 or stones, out of the medium or into a lower corner shown here.
  • these impurities can be removed via an inspection flap (not shown in detail). This makes it possible to filter this highly viscous medium of a biogas plant.
  • Sediments 23 or stones are not fundamentally transported along, so that no oversaturation of stone material occurs during continuous operation of a biogas plant at the subsequent processing stations or in the container of the biogas plant itself.
  • a distance 24 of the maximum deflection of the waveform 21 is slightly larger, preferably 1.01 to 1.1 times, particularly preferably 1.01 to 1.02 times, than the axial length 25 of the piston head 14.
