发明名称 Liquid ring pump and method for operating a liquid ring pump
摘要 The invention relates to a liquid ring pump (1) for generating vacuum and for pumping a flow of sewage in a vacuum sewage system. The liquid ring pump comprises in the direction of the flow of sewage a pump inlet (11), an inlet chamber (13), a pump housing (14) provided with a rotor (15) arranged on a drive shaft (16) provided with a mechanical seal (20), an outlet chamber (17), and an pump outlet (19). The mechanical seal (20) is arranged within the outlet chamber (17). The outlet chamber (17) is provided with an integrated extension (18) providing an enlargement of the outlet chamber (17) in order to retain the flow of sewage in the outlet chamber (17) before it is discharged from the pump outlet (19) in order to improve the lubrication of the mechanical seal (20).

主权项 1. A liquid ring pump for generating vacuum and for pumping a flow of sewage in a vacuum sewage system, wherein the liquid ring pump comprises, in the direction of the flow of sewage, a pump inlet, an inlet chamber, a pump housing provided with a rotor arranged on a drive shaft, an outlet chamber, the drive shaft extending from the housing into the outlet chamber, the drive shaft having a mechanical seal, wherein the mechanical seal is arranged on a portion of the drive shaft that passes through the outlet chamber, an integrated extension comprising an extended volume extending from the outlet chamber, the integrated extension having a width that extends over the outlet chamber, wherein the integrated extension provides a continuation and enlargement of the outlet chamber extending toward a pump outlet, and the pump outlet arranged at an end of the integrated extension, in the direction of the flow of sewage, wherein the pump inlet is arranged to be connected to a collector for receiving the flow of sewage, wherein the pump outlet is arranged to be connected to a discharge pipe for discharging the flow of sewage, and wherein the mechanical seal is arranged to be lubricated by the flow of sewage as the flow of sewage flows from the pump housing into and through the outlet chamber and the integrated extension of the outlet chamber from where it is discharged through the pump outlet into the discharge pipe.
