Definitions
- the invention relates to a submersible pump with an electrically driven pump impeller mounted beneath the motor and a housing which surrounds the motor and the impeller, the suction opening (s) being (are) arranged in the outer wall of the housing at height or below the impeller.
- German utility model application (G —) with the same priority, it is proposed to arrange nozzles in the lower area of a submersible pump, from which a part of the pumped medium, in particular water, emerges in order to whirl up the sediments in the pump sump.
- a constant, multiple flow for swirling is generated, which in certain cases is not always sufficient since it represents only a partial flow of the total amount conveyed.
- the object of the invention is a submersible pump of the beginning mentioned type to improve so that a high degree of turbulence of sediments is generated in the room in which the submersible pump is located.
- nozzles branch off from the pump pressure side, in particular via a passage, which open outside of the pump housing, in particular a lower region of the pump housing, and are directed into the pump sump, and in that a controllable valve is arranged in the pump delivery line that the pump delivery line can be completely or partially closed at times.
- valve is arranged within the pump housing. It is also advantageous if the valve is controlled by an electronic control device.
- the valve be completely or partially closed for a certain period of time at the beginning of the pump run and then be opened. In this way, at the beginning of each pump run, it can be ensured that the sediments that have accumulated up to that point are whirled up in order to then be safely extracted. Furthermore, it is also advantageous if the valve during the pump run is closed in the meantime, so that intermittent whirling up of suspended matter can occur as required. It is particularly advantageous here if the frequency and / or duration of the closing of the valve is controlled as a function of the amount of suspended matter in the pump chamber.
- An electric motor 2 with a vertical drive shaft 3 is fastened in a housing 1 of a submersible pump.
- An impeller 4 of a centrifugal pump is attached to the underside of the motor shaft 3.
- the impeller 4 conveys into a pump chamber 5, from which a pressure nozzle 6 branches upwards, to which pressure hose can be connected.
- a coaxial suction nozzle 7 which extends into a suction chamber 8 which is located below the pump chamber 5 and has suction openings 9, in particular in the form of a slot, all around in the pump housing wall.
- the suction chamber 8 there is another chamber 10, which is connected via at least one channel or passage 11 to the pump chamber 5 or to the pressure side of the impeller 4, the channel or passage 11 crossing the suction chamber 8, in particular vertically.
- outlet channels or openings or nozzles 12 are introduced, which open to the side of the pump in the lowest area. The nozzles 12 are thus located below the intake openings 9.
- the chambers 5, 8 and 10 are thus arranged in layers one above the other, the pressure chamber 10 being at the bottom.
- the chamber 10 or the nozzles 12 can also be higher than the suction openings 9.
- nozzles 12 are directed obliquely downwards in order to reach the sediments deposited on the bottom of the pump sump.
- An optimal alignment of the nozzles is created when the vertical plane running through the respective nozzle axis forms an intersection with the horizontal cross-sectional plane of the pump housing 1, which is circular in the horizontal cross-section, which is a tangent or a secant to the pump housing wall that does not run through the center of the circle.
- the pump housing area forming the chambers 8 and 10 can, as shown in the exemplary embodiment, be unscrewed from the rest of the pump housing in order to achieve separate manufacture, that is to say subsequent attachment.
- the valve 13 can be completely or partially closed during the pump run in order to allow more or less delivery medium to escape through the nozzles 12. If the pump is only run temporarily, in particular at regular intervals, for example whenever the pump chamber is filled up to a certain height, it is advantageous if the valve 13 is closed more or completely at the beginning of the pump run to remove the suspended matter that have lowered themselves while the pump is at a standstill, whirl up and thus vacuum safely. In this case, the amount of sediment deposited can be determined by conventional devices and / or the proportion of the suspended matter in the medium is measured by conventional devices and the valve 13 is controlled accordingly.
- valve In the case of continuously operating submersible pumps as well as during the operation of periodically operating submersible pumps, the valve can in the meantime be completely or partially closed in order to temporarily increase the turbulence effect as required. Finally, the valve 13 can also be completely or partially closed in regular short sections in order to allow the medium to emerge from the nozzles in a pulsating manner. These in particular oscillating movements of the valve actuator can be controlled particularly precisely by an electronic device.
- the valve 13 is shown in the exemplary embodiment as a flap valve. Alternatively, other types of valves or shut-off devices can also be arranged. Solenoid valves are particularly advantageous.
