A magnetic-drive coupling pump configuration including an attachment/detachment mechanism allowing simple and reliable positioning and fixation is provided. Thrust-direction positioning and radial-direction positioning are achieved, respectively, by surface contact of a convex portion of a pump unit (10) inserted up to a predetermined position in a concave portion (31) of a drive motor unit (30), and contact between an outer circumferential surface of the convex portion (11) and an inner circumferential surface of the concave portion (31). A claw (15) protruding on the outer circumferential surface of the pump unit (10), an engaging portion (32) protruding upward from an upper outer circumferential portion of the drive motor unit (30) to restrict, by engagement, claw upward movement when the pump unit (10) is rotated with the convex portion (11) inserted up to the predetermined position in the concave portion (31), and a locking mechanism (50) holding the pump unit (10) at an engagement position of the claw (15) and the engaging portion (32) are included. |

1. A magnetic drive pump configuration which is a coupling type that inserts a convex portion provided on a bottom surface of a pump unit into a concave portion provided on a top surface of a drive motor unit to achieve integration, and according to which magnetic force generated between a driven magnet attached to an impeller that rotates by a non-contact bearing inside the pump unit, and a driving magnet that rotates by a motor inside the drive motor unit rotates the impeller and applies pressure on liquid,
wherein positioning in a thrust direction is achieved by the bottom surface of the pump unit and a top surface of the drive motor unit that are in surface contact with each other in a state where the convex portion is inserted up to a predetermined position in the concave portion, and positioning in a radial direction is achieved by a contact between an outer circumferential surface of the convex portion and an inner circumferential surface of the concave portion, and wherein the pump configuration comprises
a plurality of claws provided in a protruding manner on the outer circumferential surface of the pump unit,a plurality of engaging portions provided upward and in a protruding manner from an upper outer circumferential portion of the drive motor unit to restrict upward movement of the claws by coming into engagement when the pump unit is rotated in a state where the convex portion is inserted up to a predetermined position in the concave portion, anda locking mechanism for holding the pump unit at an engagement position of the claws and the engaging portions, and wherein the locking mechanism includes
an engaging protrusion member having a guide engagement surface, formed on an outer circumferential edge surface protruding outward from the pump unit, that starts as a sloping surface whose protrusion amount increases in an opposite direction from an attachment rotation direction to be a step, anda movable arm having an arm main body that is supported, at around a middle portion, on an outer circumferential surface of the drive motor unit and that is swingable in a pump radial direction on a vertical plane, an elastic member that biases inward an upper end portion side of the arm main body in the pump radial direction, a concave portion that is provided at the upper end portion side of the arm main body and that engages with the engaging protrusion member, and a guide wall that causes the arm main body to swing by contacting the sloping surface and that applies a detent on the pump unit by engaging with the step. |
