  • the rotating liquid in the liquid cavity 1 generates a centrifugal inertia force. Since the density of the liquid is much higher than that of the air, the centrifugal inertia force of the rotating liquid is much greater than that of rotating air in FIG. 1 . Then, the pressure distribution with low central pressure and high peripheral pressure is formed in the liquid cavity.
  • the liquid discharge channel 6 is in communication with the external environment, so that the pressure at the edge of the rotating liquid is equal to the pressure of the external environment.
  • the position of the connection channel 7 is closer to the center of the rotating liquid than the position of the drainage channel 6, so that the pressure at the connection channel 7 is less than the pressure at the drainage channel 6 (equivalent to the pressure of the external environment).
  • the pressure at the connection channel 7 is negative pressure.
  • the liquid in the air extracting cavity 2 is extracted by the negative pressure through the connection channel 7, and is drained through the drainage channel 6.
  • the liquid level in the air extracting cavity 2 decreases, so that the air pressure in the air extracting cavity decreases to form the negative pressure.

  • FIG. 3 An example in which the object to be subjected to air extraction is an air tank is used for description.
  • the air tank is in communication with the air extracting cavity 2 through the air extracting channel 5.
  • the air extracting cavity is filled with liquid, and the liquid level 19 is located at the top of the air extracting cavity.
  • the blades 4 start to rotate, forming a rotational liquid flow in the liquid cavity 1.
  • Negative pressure (denoted as negative pressure A) is formed in the liquid cavity due to the centrifugal inertia force of the rotating liquid.
  • the liquid in the air extracting cavity is extracted by the negative pressure A through the connection channel 7, so that the liquid level decreases, thereby forming negative pressure (negative pressure B) in the air extracting cavity.
  • Air in the air tank is extracted by the negative pressure B of the air extracting cavity through the air extracting channel, so that the pressure in the air tank is reduced to form negative pressure (denoted as negative pressure C).
  • negative pressure C negative pressure
  • the negative pressure A is higher than the negative pressure B
  • the negative pressure B is higher than the negative pressure C.
  • the negative pressure A, negative pressure B, and negative pressure C will be balanced, that is, the negative pressure A is equal to the negative pressure B and the negative pressure C.
  • the liquid level is kept stable at a height ( FIG. 3(b) ).
  • a comparison between the air extractor of the present invention and the centrifugal evacuating pump as shown in FIG. 1 shows that the size and the rotational speed of blades of the two are the same. It is known that a centrifugal inertia force of a rotating fluid is proportional to the density of the fluid, so that the negative pressure formed by the centrifugal inertia force is also proportional to the density of the fluid. Obviously, final negative pressure formed by a centrifugal air extracting pump of FIG. 1 in an air tank may be much lower than that of the present invention.
  • the rotating fluid in the centrifugal pump is air
  • the rotating fluid of the present invention is the liquid with the density that is hundreds or even thousands of times that of the former (for example, the former is the air and the latter is water, and a density difference is 830 times).
  • the centrifugal air extracting pump needs to reach the negative pressure of the present invention, the rotating speed of the blades thereof must be increased by about 30 times. Obviously, this is very difficult.
  • the rotating speed of the motor is limited by electrical and mechanical properties of the motor (for example, a motor rotor coil, a rotating bearing, or rotating friction) and cannot be increased indefinitely.
  • the present invention increases the negative pressure by using a high-density rotating fluid.
  • the liquid is disposed in the air extracting cavity, and the liquid cavity must be in communication with the liquid in the air extracting cavity through the connection channel. This ensures that there is a rotational liquid flow in the liquid cavity during the extraction process. If the liquid is not disposed in the air extracting cavity, or the connection channel is in direct communication with the air in the air extracting cavity, the air may be extracted into the liquid cavity. Because the density of the air is less than that of the liquid, air may gather at the center of the rotational flow, forming a central air mass, and then squeeze out some or all of the liquid in the liquid cavity. With less rotary flowing of the liquid, the centrifugal inertia force becomes smaller, thereby weakening the negative pressure in the liquid cavity, and then weakening the negative pressure in the air extracting cavity.
  • a piston-type air extracting pump in addition to the centrifugal air extracting pump, there may be a piston-type air extracting pump and a screw-type air extracting pump.
  • the piston- type air extracting pump forms extremely high negative pressure through the reciprocating motion of a piston.
  • the piston-type air extracting pump uses the motor and a crank slider mechanism, which is an asymmetric mechanical structure, to drive the reciprocating motion of the piston, the asymmetric mechanical structure has the disadvantage of extremely severe vibration, and the negative pressure may fluctuate due to the vibration.
  • a screw-type air extracting pump extracts air and forms negative pressure through engagement of two screws. Screw engagement requires extremely high machining precision, which leads to high costs and heavy weight of the screw type air extracting pump.
  • Blade motion of the present invention is axially symmetric and has no vibration problem, so the negative pressure is stable; and the blades driving the liquid to rotate do not require extremely high machining precision, so the costs of the centrifugal air extracting pump are extremely low.
  • Embodiment 1 if the air is continuously extracted from the object to be subjected to air extraction 8, the liquid level 19 of the air extracting cavity 2 is decreased until there is no liquid in the air extracting cavity. If air extraction is further performed, the air enters the liquid cavity 1 and extrudes the liquid out of the liquid cavity. As a result, there is no rotary flowing of the liquid in the liquid cavity, so that the negative pressure is severely weakened.
  • an air extracting cavity of the present invention may include two or more air extracting sub-cavities.
  • a drainage channel includes two or more drainage sub-channels
  • an air extracting channel includes two or more air extracting sub-channels

  • the air extractor further includes a switching mechanism for controlling opening and closing of the channel.

  • step (3) of Embodiment 2 when the third switching mechanism 12A is opened, and the third switching mechanism 12B is closed, the pressure in communication with the object to be subjected to air extraction 8 is suddenly changed from the negative pressure to the environment pressure.
  • the sudden change in pressure is a sign of instability.
  • this embodiment optimizes an action sequence of the switching mechanisms as follows:

  • the air release mechanism 22 may be a switching mechanism. After each use of the air extractor, the switching mechanism of the air release mechanism 22 is opened, so that the air bubble collection cavity 14 is in communication with an external environment. Once the liquid level in the air bubble collection cavity 14 is lower than the liquid level in the air extracting cavity 2, the liquid flows from the air extracting cavity 2 into the air bubble collection cavity 14 under the action of gravity, and extrudes the air in the air bubble collection cavity out, so that the air bubble collection cavity is filled with the liquid once again.
  • the air release mechanism 22 may also be a small vacuum pump. When the air extractor is operating, the vacuum pump is turned on to extract the air out of the air bubble collection cavity.
  • the liquid in the air extracting cavity 2 is always in contact with the air, so that the air is continuously dissolved into the liquid, the newly dissolved air may be continuously separated out under the condition of a negative pressure of the liquid cavity 1.

  • the air-liquid blocker 16 may be another liquid that is less dense than the liquid in air extracting cavity 2 and is difficult to dissolve air.
  • the liquid in the air extracting cavity 2 is water
  • the air-liquid blocker 16 is oil.
  • the oil floats above the water, blocking the contact between the air and the water and also preventing the air from being dissolved into the water.
  • the air-liquid blocker 16 may also be a solid plate floating on the liquid, or a ball floating on the liquid (as shown in FIG. 8 ) and capable of moving up and down with the liquid level.
  • two liquid cavities are connected in series to enhance the negative pressure for air extraction.
  • a liquid cavity a and a liquid cavity b are used.
  • the liquid cavity a is in communication with an air extracting cavity 2 through a connection channel 7a.
  • a drainage channel 6a of the liquid cavity a is in communication with a connection channel 7b of the liquid cavity b.
  • a drainage channel 6b of the liquid cavity b drains liquid outward. If the pressure of the drainage channel 6b is an environmental pressure, the pressure of the connection channel 7a is the sum of negative pressure generated by the two liquid cavities.
  • the negative pressure for air extraction may be further increased by increasing the number of liquid cavities connected in series in other embodiments of the present invention.
  • two liquid cavities are connected in parallel to enhance an air extraction amount.
  • a liquid cavity a and a liquid cavity b are used.
  • a drainage channel 7a of the liquid cavity a is in communication with a connection channel 7b of the liquid cavity b, and is in communication with an air extracting cavity 2.
  • a drainage channel 6a of the liquid cavity a is in communication with a drainage channel 6b of the liquid cavity b, to drain liquid outward.
  • the flow of liquid from the air extracting cavity 2 is the sum of the flows of the two liquid cavities, which increases the amount of liquid inflow and also increases the air extraction amount of the air extracting cavity.
  • the negative pressure for air extraction may be further increased by increasing the number of liquid cavities connected in parallel in other embodiments of the present invention.
