Diaphragm machine with a plurality of pump chambers

摘要

A diaphragm machine including a drive unit for producing pulsating hydraulic fluid flows for driving the diaphragms, and a delivery unit for delivering a delivery medium and having pump chambers with volumes that can be varied by the movement of a respective diaphragm. Each pump chamber is connected by a pressure valve to a pressure line and by a suction valve to a suction line. The delivery unit includes at least two hydraulic bodies and a diaphragm body in which the pressure and suction lines are arranged. Each hydraulic body is connected to the drive unit, and formed between each hydraulic body and the diaphragm body is a cavity in which one of the diaphragms is arranged so that by production of the pulsating hydraulic fluid flows, the diaphragms are moved within the cavities and the delivery medium is periodically transferred from the suction line into the pressure line.

主权项

1. A multi-cylinder diaphragm machine having at least three hydraulically driven diaphragms comprising:
a drive unit for producing at least three pulsating hydraulic fluid flows for driving the diaphragms; and a delivery unit comprising one diaphragm body and at least three hydraulic bodies arranged at the outside of the one diaphragm body so that each diaphragm can be accessed by dismantling the hydraulic body from the one diaphragm body for replacing the diaphragm, wherein each of the at least three hydraulic bodies is connected to the drive unit; wherein formed between each hydraulic body and the one diaphragm body is a cavity in which a respective diaphragm is arranged, wherein each diaphragm divides its respective cavity into two pump chambers, one of the two pump chambers being a delivery chamber for delivering a delivery medium, each delivery chamber being connected by way of a pressure valve to a corresponding pressure line and by way of a suction valve to a corresponding suction line, wherein the pressure and suction lines and the pressure and suction valves are arranged in the one diaphragm body; wherein by production of the pulsating hydraulic fluid flows, the diaphragms are moved within the respective cavities and the delivery medium is periodically transferred from the suction line into the pressure line.
