Description

本願発明は、ダイヤフラムポンプ装置、特に自動車等のディーゼルエンジンの燃料フィルタに設けられるダイヤフラムポンプ装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a diaphragm pump device, and more particularly to a diaphragm pump device provided in a fuel filter of a diesel engine such as an automobile.

自動車等のエンジンとして古くからディーゼルエンジンがある。ディーゼルエンジンは、燃料として軽油を使用し、その軽油を噴射ポンプで高圧に圧縮し、インジェクタからエンジンの燃焼室に噴射させ、燃焼室で自己燃焼させるものである。   There is a diesel engine as an engine for automobiles for a long time. A diesel engine uses light oil as fuel, compresses the light oil to a high pressure with an injection pump, injects it from an injector into a combustion chamber of the engine, and self-combusts in the combustion chamber.

その燃料系統を図17に示す。燃料系統は、主として噴射ポンプ1、コモンレール2、インジェクタ3、燃料タンク4、ディーゼルフィルタ5等からなる。噴射ポンプ1は、高圧の燃料を供給するポンプであり、該噴射ポンプ1で作られる高圧燃料はコモンレール2をより各気筒のインジェクタ3に分配される。黒塗りの矢印は、燃料タンク4からインジェクタ3への燃料の流れを示し、白抜きの矢印は、インジェクタ3から燃料タンク4への戻り燃料の流れを示す。   The fuel system is shown in FIG. The fuel system mainly includes an injection pump 1, a common rail 2, an injector 3, a fuel tank 4, a diesel filter 5, and the like. The injection pump 1 is a pump that supplies high-pressure fuel, and the high-pressure fuel produced by the injection pump 1 is distributed to the injectors 3 of each cylinder by way of the common rail 2. The black arrow indicates the flow of fuel from the fuel tank 4 to the injector 3, and the white arrow indicates the flow of return fuel from the injector 3 to the fuel tank 4.

燃料中には、塵芥、錆等の固形夾雑物、カーボン、ガム状物質のようなスラッジ及び水分等の異物が混入しておりこの異物を取り除くため前記ディーゼルフィルタ5が設けられている。ディーゼルフィルタ5で分離された異物は、一定以上溜まると底部に設けられるドレンコックが開かれ排出されることになるが、ただドレンコックが開かれただけでは排出が良好に行われない。また、燃料系統中に空気が混入すると燃料の送給に支障が生じる。このような弊害をなくすため従来ディーゼルフィルタ5には、ディーゼルフィルタ5内の分離水を良好に排出したり、或いは燃料系統中の混入空気を排出するために手動式のダイヤフラムポンプ装置6が設けられている。   In the fuel, foreign matters such as dust, rust and other foreign matters, sludge such as carbon and gum, and moisture are mixed, and the diesel filter 5 is provided to remove the foreign matter. When the foreign matter separated by the diesel filter 5 accumulates above a certain level, the drain cock provided at the bottom is opened and discharged. However, the drain cock cannot be discharged well just by opening the drain cock. In addition, if air enters the fuel system, the fuel supply will be hindered. In order to eliminate such an adverse effect, the conventional diesel filter 5 is provided with a manual diaphragm pump device 6 for discharging the separated water in the diesel filter 5 well or discharging mixed air in the fuel system. ing.

図18に従来の手動式のダイヤフラムポンプ装置6を有するディーゼルフィルタ5を示す。ディーゼルフィルタ5の上部には、手動式のダイヤフラムポンプ装置6が配設される。このダイヤフラムポンプ装置6は、外郭を形成するボデー7を有し、流体流入通路9及び流体流出通路10が連結され、その内部にはポンプ室8が形成される。   FIG. 18 shows a diesel filter 5 having a conventional manual diaphragm pump device 6. A manual diaphragm pump device 6 is disposed above the diesel filter 5. The diaphragm pump device 6 has a body 7 that forms an outer shell, and a fluid inflow passage 9 and a fluid outflow passage 10 are connected to each other, and a pump chamber 8 is formed therein.

ボデー7の上端にはダイヤフラム11が設けられるとともに、その上方部に設けられるカバー部材12を前記ボデー7の上端外周部にかしめ固定することによりダイヤフラム11はボデー7とカバー部材12とにより強固に狭持される。前記カバー部材12には、前記ダイヤフラム11に固定される手動操作部としてのノブ14が上下動可能に取り付けられ、その内部に大気室13が形成される。   A diaphragm 11 is provided at the upper end of the body 7, and a cover member 12 provided at an upper portion thereof is caulked and fixed to the outer periphery of the upper end of the body 7, whereby the diaphragm 11 is tightly narrowed by the body 7 and the cover member 12. Be held. A knob 14 as a manual operation unit fixed to the diaphragm 11 is attached to the cover member 12 so as to be movable up and down, and an air chamber 13 is formed therein.

また、前記ボデー7内のポンプ室8には、弁部材15及び前記ポンプ室8を拡大方向へ付勢するスプリング16が設けられており、通常時には黒塗り矢印(1)〜(4)の経路で燃料がディーゼルフィルタ5に流れ、ディーゼルフィルタ5により異物が除去され、黒塗り矢印(5)で示すように流体流出通路10から送出される。そして、ディーゼルフィルタ5内の分離水を排出したり、或いは燃料系統中の混入空気を排出する際には、前記ノブ14を押圧し前記ダイヤフラムを上下動させることによって行う。   Further, the pump chamber 8 in the body 7 is provided with a valve member 15 and a spring 16 for urging the pump chamber 8 in the expansion direction, and the path of the black arrows (1) to (4) is normally provided. Then, the fuel flows into the diesel filter 5, foreign matter is removed by the diesel filter 5, and the fuel is sent out from the fluid outflow passage 10 as indicated by the black arrow (5). When the separated water in the diesel filter 5 is discharged or the mixed air in the fuel system is discharged, the knob 14 is pressed and the diaphragm is moved up and down.

従来のダイヤフラム11を狭持するボデー7とカバー部材12とのかしめ固定について説明すると、前記カバー部材12の外周先端部17は、図で点線Aとして示すように折り曲げられていない筒形状のものとして予め形成されており、そのカバー部材12をボデー7の上端部に被せ、その後、かしめ装置18のローラ18aをカバー部材12の外周先端部17の側面に当て、かしめ装置18を白抜き矢印(6)で示す方向に押し込むとともに、ダイヤフラムポンプ装置6を矢印(7)で示す方向に回動することによって行われる。すると、カバー部材12の外周先端部17は、点線Aで示す位置から実線Bで示す位置に折り曲げられ、その結果、ダイヤフラム11はボデー7とカバー部材12とにより強固に狭持される。   The caulking and fixing between the body 7 and the cover member 12 that sandwich the conventional diaphragm 11 will be described. The outer peripheral tip portion 17 of the cover member 12 has a cylindrical shape that is not bent as shown by a dotted line A in the figure. The cover member 12 is formed in advance, and the upper end portion of the body 7 is covered. After that, the roller 18a of the caulking device 18 is applied to the side surface of the outer peripheral end portion 17 of the cover member 12, and the caulking device 18 is moved to the white arrow (6 ) And pushing the diaphragm pump device 6 in the direction indicated by the arrow (7). Then, the outer peripheral tip 17 of the cover member 12 is bent from the position indicated by the dotted line A to the position indicated by the solid line B. As a result, the diaphragm 11 is firmly held between the body 7 and the cover member 12.

ところが、従来のボデー7とカバー部材12とのかしめ固定は、かしめ部をかしめ装置18のローラ18aで押圧しながらダイヤフラムポンプ装置6を矢印(7)で示す方向に回動しながら行うため、例えば図に示すようにボデー7に取り付けられる流体流出通路10等のような部品がかしめ装置18の高さと同じような位置にあると、ダイヤフラムポンプ装置6を矢印(7)で示す方向に回動した場合、かしめ装置18に流体流出通路10が当たりかしめ加工が行われなくなるため、かしめ加工時に障害となる部品はかしめ加工の後に取り付けざるを得なくなり、それだけ組み立て順序が制約され設計の自由度が減少することとなる。   However, the conventional caulking and fixing of the body 7 and the cover member 12 are performed while the caulking portion is pressed by the roller 18a of the caulking device 18 and the diaphragm pump device 6 is rotated in the direction indicated by the arrow (7). As shown in the figure, when a component such as the fluid outflow passage 10 attached to the body 7 is at a position similar to the height of the caulking device 18, the diaphragm pump device 6 is rotated in the direction indicated by the arrow (7). In this case, since the fluid outflow passage 10 does not contact the caulking device 18 and the caulking process is not performed, the parts that are obstructed during the caulking process must be attached after the caulking process, and the assembly order is limited accordingly, and the degree of freedom of design is reduced. Will be.

また、近年、廃車する場合は、樹脂、金属、ゴム等の材料に分別してリサイクルまたは廃棄する方向であるが、かしめ等の強固な固定手段では分解が困難であり、材料の分別を行いがたいという制約を有していた。   Also, in recent years, when disposing of cars, it is in the direction of separating or recycling or discarding them into materials such as resin, metal, rubber, etc., but it is difficult to disassemble with strong fixing means such as caulking, and it is difficult to separate materials It had the restrictions.

このような弊害をなくする手段として、ボデー7とカバー部材12とをネジ締結手段というより簡単な固定手段を採用することが考えられる。   As a means for eliminating such an adverse effect, it is conceivable to adopt a simple fixing means called the screw fastening means for the body 7 and the cover member 12.

しかしながら、カバー部材12は樹脂製で、ダイヤフラム11はゴム製であるためカバー部材12を回転させて締め付ける際、ダイヤフラム11の連れ回りが生じ、ダイヤフラム11の摩滅、或いは組み付け不具合が発生したり、また、単なるネジ締結であると一般ユーザーがカバー部材12を簡単に取り外すことができるため単なる興味本位や、或いは故意にしろカバー部材12が取り外されるとその後の締め付けが不適正であったり或いはダイヤフラム11等の部品が損傷したりする等の不具合が発生する恐れがあった。
特開平9−133059号公報
However, since the cover member 12 is made of resin and the diaphragm 11 is made of rubber, when the cover member 12 is rotated and tightened, the diaphragm 11 is rotated, resulting in wear of the diaphragm 11 or assembly failure. Since the general user can easily remove the cover member 12 when the screw is simply tightened, it is simply interesting, or if the cover member 12 is intentionally removed, the subsequent tightening may be inappropriate or the diaphragm 11 or the like. There is a risk of malfunction such as damage to the parts.

When replacing the filter member 23, the above procedure is reversed.

ケース21とキャップ22の連結後の燃料の流れは、図に黒塗りの矢印(1)〜(5)で示す経路で流れることになる。即ち、燃料流入管27から矢印(1)のように流入する燃料は、第1の逆止弁29を経てポンプ室46に流れ、次いで矢印(2)、(3)で示すように第2の逆止弁30及び燃料通路23aを経て下部空間26に至る。下部空間26で含まれる水等が分離された後、燃料はエレメント23bを通過する際含まれる異物が除去され、異物が除去された燃料は矢印(4)、(5)で示すように流れ、燃料流出管28より排出される。   The fuel flow after connection of the case 21 and the cap 22 flows along a path indicated by black arrows (1) to (5) in the drawing. That is, the fuel flowing in from the fuel inflow pipe 27 as shown by the arrow (1) flows into the pump chamber 46 through the first check valve 29, and then, as shown by the arrows (2) and (3), the second It reaches the lower space 26 through the check valve 30 and the fuel passage 23a. After the water and the like contained in the lower space 26 are separated, the foreign matter contained when the fuel passes through the element 23b is removed, and the fuel from which the foreign matter has been removed flows as indicated by arrows (4) and (5), It is discharged from the fuel outflow pipe 28.

次いで、キャップ22の上方に一体に形成されるダイヤフラムポンプ装置35について説明する。ダイヤフラムポンプ装置35は、外郭を形成しその上端に上方開口部41を有するボデー40と、該ボデー40の上方開口部41を閉塞するカバー部材50と、ボデー40とカバー部材50との間で狭持されるダイヤフラム60と、ダイヤフラム60を手動で上下動させるノブ65と、ダイヤフラム60とカバー部材50との間に配設される連れ回り防止部材70等からなる。   Next, the diaphragm pump device 35 that is integrally formed above the cap 22 will be described. The diaphragm pump device 35 includes a body 40 that forms an outer shell and has an upper opening 41 at an upper end thereof, a cover member 50 that closes the upper opening 41 of the body 40, and a narrow space between the body 40 and the cover member 50. It comprises a diaphragm 60 to be held, a knob 65 for manually moving the diaphragm 60 up and down, an anti-rotation member 70 disposed between the diaphragm 60 and the cover member 50, and the like.

前記ボデー40は、前記キャップ22と一体に形成される樹脂製の部材であり、上方開口部41を有しその外周上端部には肉厚部42が形成される。該肉厚部42の外周側面にはネジ43が設けられ、更にその上面内側にはダイヤフラム60を位置決め並びにシールするためのリング状の凹溝44が形成されるとともに、その上面外側には後記の連れ回り防止部材70を位置決めするための4個の突起部45が図3に示すように等間隔に設けられている。   The body 40 is a resin member formed integrally with the cap 22, has an upper opening 41, and a thick portion 42 is formed at the outer peripheral upper end. A screw 43 is provided on the outer peripheral side surface of the thick portion 42, and further, a ring-shaped concave groove 44 for positioning and sealing the diaphragm 60 is formed on the inner surface of the thick portion 42. Four protrusions 45 for positioning the follow-up preventing member 70 are provided at equal intervals as shown in FIG.

前記カバー部材50は、断面皿形状の樹脂製部材であり、その中央部には開口52を有する小径の筒状部51が形成され、その筒状部51から外周部に向かって高さの高い第1水平部53、高さの低い第2水平部54及び垂直状の外周端折曲部55が形成されるとともに、外周端折曲部55の内側には、ボデー40の肉厚部42の外周側面に形成されるネジ43に螺合するネジ56が形成される。   The cover member 50 is a resin member having a dish-shaped cross section, and a small-diameter cylindrical portion 51 having an opening 52 is formed at the center thereof, and the height increases from the cylindrical portion 51 toward the outer peripheral portion. A first horizontal portion 53, a second horizontal portion 54 having a low height, and a vertical outer peripheral end bent portion 55 are formed. Inside the outer peripheral end bent portion 55, the thick portion 42 of the body 40 is formed. A screw 56 that is screwed into a screw 43 formed on the outer peripheral side surface is formed.

前記ダイヤフラム60は、ゴム製の円板形状の部材であり、その中央には開口部68が設けられ、且つその外周端部下面には前記ボデー40の肉厚部42の外周上面に形成されるリング状の凹溝44に係合可能な係止凸部61が形成される。そして、この係止凸部61をリング状の凹溝44に載置し、カバー部材50をキャップ22の肉厚部42に螺合させることによりダイヤフラム60を強固に狭持し、ダイヤフラム60を狭持することによりダイヤフラム60を挟んでボデー40内にポンプ室46が形成されるとともに、カバー部材50内に大気室57が形成される。   The diaphragm 60 is a rubber disk-shaped member, and an opening 68 is provided at the center thereof, and the lower surface of the outer peripheral end portion is formed on the outer peripheral upper surface of the thick portion 42 of the body 40. A locking convex portion 61 that can be engaged with the ring-shaped concave groove 44 is formed. Then, the locking convex portion 61 is placed in the ring-shaped concave groove 44, and the cover member 50 is screwed into the thick portion 42 of the cap 22, thereby firmly holding the diaphragm 60 and narrowing the diaphragm 60. By holding, the pump chamber 46 is formed in the body 40 with the diaphragm 60 interposed therebetween, and the atmospheric chamber 57 is formed in the cover member 50.

符号64は金属製のロッドであり、該ロッド64は、その上方に内部にネジが形成される筒状立設部64aを有し、そのほぼ中央に水平で円盤状のフランジ64bを有し、更に下方にかしめ部64cを有している。そして、かしめ部64cには上方から順に上部板62、ダイヤフラム60及び下部板63がそれぞれの開口部を挿入することにより装着されるとともに、最後にかしめ部64cの先端をかしめることにより、ダイヤフラム60は上部板62及び下部板63で狭持された状態でロッド64に強固に固定される。   Reference numeral 64 is a metal rod, and the rod 64 has a cylindrical standing portion 64a in which a screw is formed inside, and a horizontal and disc-shaped flange 64b at the substantially center thereof. Further, a caulking portion 64c is provided below. Then, the upper plate 62, the diaphragm 60, and the lower plate 63 are attached to the caulking portion 64c in order from above by inserting the respective openings, and finally, the tip of the caulking portion 64c is caulked to thereby attach the diaphragm 60. Is firmly fixed to the rod 64 while being held between the upper plate 62 and the lower plate 63.

前記ノブ65は、カバー部材50の上方に配置され、ダイヤフラム60を弾性変形させる手動操作部としての樹脂製の部材であり、その上面を指等で押さえつける押圧部65a、その中央部下面に垂下形成される筒状垂下部65b及びその中央部上面に形成されるビス口65cを有する。そして、筒状垂下部65bの内部には、内部にネジが形成されるロッド64の筒状立設部64aが嵌合され、押圧部65aの上面に形成されるビス口65cからビス66を螺合することによりノブ65とロッド64とを一体的に固定する。このノブ65とロッド64との固定はカバー部材50を間に挟んで行われる。   The knob 65 is a resin member as a manual operation unit that is disposed above the cover member 50 and elastically deforms the diaphragm 60. The pressing unit 65a presses the upper surface with a finger or the like, and is hung on the lower surface of the central part. A cylindrical hanging portion 65b and a screw port 65c formed on the upper surface of the central portion. Then, a cylindrical standing portion 64a of a rod 64 in which a screw is formed is fitted inside the cylindrical hanging portion 65b, and a screw 66 is screwed from a screw port 65c formed on the upper surface of the pressing portion 65a. By joining, the knob 65 and the rod 64 are fixed integrally. The knob 65 and the rod 64 are fixed with the cover member 50 interposed therebetween.

また、筒状垂下部65bの外周部は、カバー部材50の筒状部51内に摺動自在に配設される。なお、図示しないが筒状垂下部65bの外周面、或いはカバー部材50の筒状部51の内面のいずれかには溝が設けられており、カバー部材50とダイヤフラム60とにより形成される大気室57を常時大気に連通させる。   Further, the outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical hanging portion 65 b is slidably disposed in the cylindrical portion 51 of the cover member 50. Although not shown, a groove is provided on either the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical hanging portion 65 b or the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 51 of the cover member 50, and an atmospheric chamber formed by the cover member 50 and the diaphragm 60. 57 is always in communication with the atmosphere.

そして、カバー部材50を間に挟んでノブ65とロッド64とを一体的に固定する際、ノブ65の内周面とカバー部材50の第1水平部53の上面との間にスプリング67が介在され、ポンプ室46を常時拡大方向へ付勢する、別言すれば、ノブ65及びダイヤフラム60は常時上動される。そのため押圧部65aを押圧することにより筒状垂下部65bは、カバー部材50の筒状部51内を摺動し、筒状垂下部65bに一体的に固定されるダイヤフラム60はボデー40内で上下動しポンピング作用が行われる。なお、このダイヤフラムポンプ装置35は、フィルタ部材23を交換した後とか、ディーゼルフィルタ20から水抜きを行う時等に使われる。   When the knob 65 and the rod 64 are integrally fixed with the cover member 50 interposed therebetween, a spring 67 is interposed between the inner peripheral surface of the knob 65 and the upper surface of the first horizontal portion 53 of the cover member 50. Thus, the pump chamber 46 is constantly urged in the enlargement direction, in other words, the knob 65 and the diaphragm 60 are always moved upward. Therefore, when the pressing portion 65a is pressed, the cylindrical hanging portion 65b slides in the cylindrical portion 51 of the cover member 50, and the diaphragm 60 fixed integrally with the cylindrical hanging portion 65b moves up and down in the body 40. A moving pumping action is performed. The diaphragm pump device 35 is used after replacing the filter member 23 or when draining water from the diesel filter 20.

本願発明のダイヤフラムポンプ装置35は、ボデー40の肉厚部42の外周側面に形成されるネジ43と、カバー部材50の外周端折曲部55の内面に形成されるネジ56とを螺合することにより両者の締結並びにダイヤフラム60の狭持が行われるところ、カバー部材50は樹脂製で、ダイヤフラム60はゴム製であるためカバー部材50を回転させて締め付ける際、ダイヤフラム60の連れ回りが生じ、ダイヤフラム60の摩滅、或いは組み付け不具合が発生する恐れがある。   In the diaphragm pump device 35 of the present invention, a screw 43 formed on the outer peripheral side surface of the thick portion 42 of the body 40 and a screw 56 formed on the inner surface of the outer peripheral end bent portion 55 of the cover member 50 are screwed together. As a result, when the two members are fastened and the diaphragm 60 is sandwiched, the cover member 50 is made of resin, and the diaphragm 60 is made of rubber. Therefore, when the cover member 50 is rotated and tightened, the diaphragm 60 is rotated, There is a possibility that the diaphragm 60 may be worn out or an assembly failure may occur.

符号70は、ダイヤフラム60のそのような弊害を防止する連れ回り防止部材であり、図1、図2に示すようにカバー部材50とダイヤフラム60との間に配設され、ダイヤフラム60の連れ回りを防止する。該連れ回り防止部材70は、図2、図3に示すように平板且つリング状の樹脂製の部材であり、その外周部には等間隔に4個の凹嵌部71が設けられるとともに、凹嵌部71の底部から内周面に中心部に向かって貫通した通し孔であるシール確認用連通路72が設けられる。なお、連れ回り防止部材70は金属製でもよく、また、フィルム状のシートでもよい。   Reference numeral 70 denotes a follow-up preventing member for preventing such a harmful effect of the diaphragm 60, which is disposed between the cover member 50 and the diaphragm 60 as shown in FIGS. To prevent. The anti-rotation member 70 is a flat and ring-shaped resin member as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and four concave fitting portions 71 are provided at equal intervals on the outer peripheral portion thereof. A seal confirmation communication path 72 that is a through-hole penetrating from the bottom of the fitting portion 71 toward the center portion is provided on the inner peripheral surface. The anti-rotation member 70 may be made of metal or a film-like sheet.

凹嵌部71の円弧方向の幅は、ボデー40の肉厚部42の上面に形成される突起部45の円弧方向の幅より若干大きくされており、連れ回り防止部材70のダイヤフラム60上への載置は、図3に示すようにその4個の凹嵌部71を4個の突起部45に嵌入することによって行われる。そのため、ボデー40とカバー部材50とのネジ締結時には、カバー部材50の第2水平部54の内面は連れ回り防止部材70の上面に当接し、該連れ回り防止部材70を連れ回そうとするが連れ回り防止部材70は凹嵌部71によりボデー40の肉厚部42上面の突起部45に係合されているためその連れ回りは防止され、結果的に連れ回り防止部材70の下方に位置するダイヤフラム60も連れ回りは防止される。   The width in the arc direction of the recessed fitting portion 71 is slightly larger than the width in the arc direction of the protruding portion 45 formed on the upper surface of the thick portion 42 of the body 40, and the anti-rotation member 70 is placed on the diaphragm 60. As shown in FIG. 3, the mounting is performed by inserting the four concave fitting portions 71 into the four projecting portions 45. Therefore, when the screws of the body 40 and the cover member 50 are fastened, the inner surface of the second horizontal portion 54 of the cover member 50 comes into contact with the upper surface of the follow-up preventing member 70 and tries to rotate the follow-up preventing member 70. Since the accompanying prevention member 70 is engaged with the protrusion 45 on the upper surface of the thick portion 42 of the body 40 by the concave fitting portion 71, the accompanying prevention is prevented, and as a result, the accompanying prevention member 70 is positioned below the accompanying prevention member 70. The diaphragm 60 is also prevented from being carried around.

前記シール確認用連通路72は、ボデー40の肉厚部42上面の凹溝44とダイヤフラム60の係止凸部61とのシールの確認のために用いられる。従来ボデー40の凹溝44とダイヤフラム60の係止凸部61とのシールの確認は、大気室57側或いはポンプ室46側から加圧空気を加え、その加圧空気が漏れていないかどうかで確認している。   The seal confirmation communication path 72 is used for confirming the seal between the concave groove 44 on the upper surface of the thick part 42 of the body 40 and the engaging convex part 61 of the diaphragm 60. The confirmation of the seal between the recessed groove 44 of the conventional body 40 and the locking projection 61 of the diaphragm 60 is based on whether pressurized air is applied from the atmosphere chamber 57 side or the pump chamber 46 side and the pressurized air does not leak. I have confirmed.

ところで、カバー部材50とダイヤフラム60との間に連れ回り防止部材70を介在させるとカバー部材50の第2水平部54の内面と連れ回り防止部材70の上面とでシールが行われたり、また、ボデー40のネジ43とカバー部材50のネジ56との螺合箇所には通常若干弱めの接着剤が塗布されて締結が行われているためやはりその箇所で完全とはいえないがシールが行われる。   By the way, when the anti-rotation member 70 is interposed between the cover member 50 and the diaphragm 60, the inner surface of the second horizontal portion 54 of the cover member 50 and the upper surface of the anti-rotation member 70 are sealed. Since the screw 43 of the body 40 and the screw 56 of the cover member 50 are usually tightened by applying a slightly weaker adhesive, sealing is performed at that point, though not completely. .

そのため、例えば、シール性が最も必要となるボデー40の凹溝44とダイヤフラム60の係止凸部61との間に漏れが生じていたとしても、前記したようなカバー部材50の第2水平部54の内面と連れ回り防止部材70の上面との間の箇所、及びボデー40のネジ43とカバー部材50のネジ56との螺合箇所がシール状態にあれば加圧空気は漏れないためシール性が最も必要となる箇所のシールを確認することはできなくなる。勿論、シール性が最も必要となる箇所以外の箇所、即ちカバー部材50の第2水平部54の内面と連れ回り防止部材70の上面との間の箇所、及びボデー40のネジ43とカバー部材50のネジ56との螺合箇所が常時完全なシール状態にあれば問題はないが、それらの箇所は組み立て時に一時的にシール状態になる可能性は高いがこのダイヤフラムポンプ装置35の車両搭載時等には振動でそれらの箇所のシール性が損なわれる恐れが大であり前記シール性が最も必要となる箇所のシールを確実に確認することは重要な要件となる。   Therefore, for example, even if a leak occurs between the concave groove 44 of the body 40 and the locking convex portion 61 of the diaphragm 60 that require the most sealing performance, the second horizontal portion of the cover member 50 as described above. If the portion between the inner surface of 54 and the upper surface of the anti-rotation member 70 and the screwed portion between the screw 43 of the body 40 and the screw 56 of the cover member 50 are in a sealed state, the pressurized air does not leak, so that sealing performance is achieved. It becomes impossible to confirm the seal of the place where is most necessary. Of course, locations other than those where sealability is most required, that is, locations between the inner surface of the second horizontal portion 54 of the cover member 50 and the upper surface of the anti-rotation member 70, and the screw 43 of the body 40 and the cover member 50. There is no problem if the screwed portion with the screw 56 is always in a completely sealed state, but there is a high possibility that these portions will be temporarily in a sealed state at the time of assembly, but when the diaphragm pump device 35 is mounted on a vehicle, etc. However, there is a great risk that the sealability of those places will be impaired by vibration, and it is an important requirement to surely check the seals at places where the sealability is most needed.

前記シール確認用連通路72は、カバー部材50の第2水平部54の内面と連れ回り防止部材70の上面との間の箇所、及びボデー40のネジ43とカバー部材50のネジ56との螺合箇所が完全なシール状態にある時のシール性が最も必要となるボデー40の凹溝44とダイヤフラム60の係止凸部61との間の箇所のシール性を確実に確認することができるものである。即ち、シール確認用連通路72は、凹嵌部71の底部から内周面に中心部に向かって貫通し、図1、図2に示すように大気室57に連通されており、ボデー40の凹溝44とダイヤフラム60の係止凸部61との間の箇所でシール不良が生じている場合には、例えばポンプ室46側から加圧空気を加えるとその加圧空気はシール確認用連通路72より大気室57に確実に漏れるのでシール不良を明確に確認することができる。   The seal confirmation communication path 72 is formed at a location between the inner surface of the second horizontal portion 54 of the cover member 50 and the upper surface of the anti-rotation member 70 and between the screw 43 of the body 40 and the screw 56 of the cover member 50. The sealability of the location between the concave groove 44 of the body 40 and the locking projection 61 of the diaphragm 60 where the sealability is most necessary when the joint is in a completely sealed state can be reliably confirmed. It is. That is, the communication passage 72 for seal confirmation penetrates from the bottom of the recessed fitting portion 71 to the inner peripheral surface toward the central portion and communicates with the atmospheric chamber 57 as shown in FIGS. In the case where a seal failure occurs at a location between the concave groove 44 and the locking convex portion 61 of the diaphragm 60, for example, when pressurized air is applied from the pump chamber 46 side, the pressurized air is communicated with the seal confirmation communication path. 72 reliably leaks to the atmospheric chamber 57, so that a seal failure can be clearly confirmed.

なお、シール確認用連通路72は、連れ回り防止部材70内を貫通して設けられるが、連れ回り防止部材70は樹脂製でありボデー40とカバー部材50とのネジ締結時に閉塞されることはない。また、連れ回り防止部材70内でシール確認用連通路72が設けられる下からの高さは、ボデー40の肉厚部42の上面に設けられる突起部45の高さより高い位置に設けられ、突起部45によりシール確認用連通路72が閉塞することがないようにされている。   Note that the seal confirmation communication path 72 is provided so as to penetrate through the anti-rotation member 70, but the anti-rotation member 70 is made of resin and is not blocked when the body 40 and the cover member 50 are screwed together. Absent. In addition, the height from the bottom where the seal confirmation communication path 72 is provided in the anti-rotation member 70 is provided at a position higher than the height of the protrusion 45 provided on the upper surface of the thick part 42 of the body 40. The seal confirmation communication path 72 is not blocked by the portion 45.

また、シール確認用連通路72は、連れ回り防止部材70内を貫通して設けられるものとして説明したが、図6、図7に示すように図2、図3のものと同様凹嵌部71の底部から内周面に中心部に向かって設けられる位置は同じであるが、その高さ位置を連れ回り防止部材70の表面にし、上方に開放で且つ適当な深さで設けることもできる。このような位置に設けることによりシール確認用連通路72の形成が容易になるとともに、深さを適当に選定することにより、そのシール確認用連通路72がカバー部材50の締結時に閉塞されることをより確実に防止することができる。   Further, the seal confirmation communication path 72 has been described as being provided penetrating through the follow-up preventing member 70, but as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the recessed fitting portion 71 is the same as in FIGS. Although the position provided from the bottom part to the inner peripheral surface toward the center part is the same, the height position can be set as the surface of the anti-rotation member 70 and open upward and at an appropriate depth. By providing at such a position, formation of the seal confirmation communication path 72 is facilitated, and the seal confirmation communication path 72 is closed when the cover member 50 is fastened by appropriately selecting the depth. Can be prevented more reliably.

前記カバー部材50の高さの低い第2水平部54の上面には、図4、図5に示すようにカバー部材50の締結を容易にし、その取り外しを困難にする4個の膨出突起58が等間隔にカバー部材50と一体に形成されている。   As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, four bulging protrusions 58 that facilitate the fastening of the cover member 50 and make it difficult to remove the cover member 50 are provided on the upper surface of the second horizontal portion 54 having a low height. Are formed integrally with the cover member 50 at equal intervals.

この膨出突起58は、垂直面58a及び傾斜面58bを有し、垂直面58aはカバー部材50を締め付ける時計方向で見た場合その上流側、図5でいえば右側にくるように設定されるとともに、傾斜面58bはその下流側、図5でいえば左側にくるように設定され、更に図4に示すように傾斜面58bは平面視円弧状に形成される。そのため図5に示すA箇所には垂直面58aが位置し、B箇所には傾斜面58bが位置することになる。   The bulging protrusion 58 has a vertical surface 58a and an inclined surface 58b, and the vertical surface 58a is set to be upstream of the cover member 50 when viewed in the clockwise direction, and to the right in FIG. At the same time, the inclined surface 58b is set on the downstream side, that is, on the left side in FIG. 5, and the inclined surface 58b is formed in an arc shape in plan view as shown in FIG. Therefore, the vertical surface 58a is positioned at the A position shown in FIG. 5, and the inclined surface 58b is positioned at the B position.

そして、カバー部材50の締結時には、膨出突起58の垂直面58aに指を当て黒塗りの矢印で示す方向に力を加えカバー部材50を時計方向に回動することにより行うことができる。また、その締結は図13、図14に示す締結用工具80を用いることができる。   When the cover member 50 is fastened, the cover member 50 can be rotated clockwise by applying a force in the direction indicated by the black arrow by placing a finger on the vertical surface 58a of the bulging protrusion 58. Moreover, the fastening tool 80 shown in FIG. 13, FIG. 14 can be used for the fastening.

この締結用工具80は、金属製の棒状体を十字に組み合わせてなる本体部80aと、本体部80aの外周下面に垂下して取り付けられる平板状の係止部80cと、本体部80aの中央上面に取り付けられる十字状の取手80bとからなり、平板状の係止部80cの側面を膨出突起58の垂直面58aに当接し、取手80bを時計方向に回動することにより膨出突起58の垂直面58aにトルクを作用させカバー部材50を締結することになる。   The fastening tool 80 includes a main body portion 80a formed by combining metal rods in a cross shape, a flat plate-like locking portion 80c attached to the lower surface of the outer periphery of the main body portion 80a, and a central upper surface of the main body portion 80a. The side surface of the flat-plate-shaped latching portion 80c is in contact with the vertical surface 58a of the bulging projection 58, and the handle 80b is rotated clockwise to rotate the bulging projection 58. The cover member 50 is fastened by applying a torque to the vertical surface 58a.

このようにカバー部材50の締結時にはその締結を容易に行うことができるが、カバー部材50を緩める反時計方向の回転時には指等が当たる部分は傾斜面58bになるため、滑ってカバー部材50を回動することはできなくなる。そのため、悪戯等によりカバー部材50が取り外されることはなくなる。   As described above, when the cover member 50 is fastened, it can be easily fastened. However, when the cover member 50 is rotated counterclockwise, the portion that the finger or the like hits becomes the inclined surface 58b. Can no longer rotate. Therefore, the cover member 50 is not removed due to mischief or the like.

ところで、カバー部材50の膨出突起58が垂直面58aと傾斜面58bとで形成されているとカバー部材50を取り外すことができずダイヤフラムポンプ装置35を分解することができなくなる。その弊害をなくすものを図8、図9に示す。図に示すものは前記膨出突起58の傾斜面58bに沿って2条の専用工具を挿入可能な工具係止溝59を設けるものである。そしてこのような工具係止溝59を傾斜面58bに設けることにより該工具係止溝59に専用工具を係止し、カバー部材50を緩め方向の反時計方向に回動することによりカバー部材50を容易に取り外すことができる。なお、工具係止溝59は単なる孔であっても良い。   By the way, if the bulging protrusion 58 of the cover member 50 is formed by the vertical surface 58a and the inclined surface 58b, the cover member 50 cannot be removed and the diaphragm pump device 35 cannot be disassembled. What eliminates the adverse effects is shown in FIGS. In the figure, a tool locking groove 59 into which two dedicated tools can be inserted is provided along the inclined surface 58b of the bulging protrusion 58. Then, by providing such a tool locking groove 59 on the inclined surface 58b, the dedicated tool is locked in the tool locking groove 59, and the cover member 50 is rotated counterclockwise in the loosening direction, thereby covering the cover member 50. Can be easily removed. The tool locking groove 59 may be a simple hole.

カバー部材50を取り外す専用工具は図15、図16に示す緩め用工具81を用いることができる。この緩め用工具81は、金属製の棒状体を十字に組み合わせてなる本体部81aと、本体部81aの外周下面に垂下して取り付けられる2本の棒状の係止部81cと、本体部81aの中央上面に取り付けられる十字状の取手81bとからなり、2本の棒状の係止部81cを膨出突起58の傾斜面58bに沿って形成した2条の工具係止溝59の側端に当接し、取手81bを反時計方向に回動することにより膨出突起58の工具係止溝59の側端にトルクを作用させカバー部材50を緩めることになる。このように専用の緩め用工具81を用いることによりカバー部材50を容易に取り外すことができる。   As a dedicated tool for removing the cover member 50, a loosening tool 81 shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 can be used. The loosening tool 81 includes a main body portion 81a formed by combining metal rods in a cross shape, two bar-shaped locking portions 81c attached to the lower surface of the outer periphery of the main body portion 81a, and a main body portion 81a. It consists of a cross-shaped handle 81b attached to the upper surface of the center, and two bar-shaped locking portions 81c are formed on the side ends of the two tool locking grooves 59 formed along the inclined surface 58b of the bulging projection 58. The handle 81b is rotated counterclockwise so that a torque is applied to the side end of the tool locking groove 59 of the bulging projection 58, and the cover member 50 is loosened. Thus, the cover member 50 can be easily removed by using the dedicated loosening tool 81.

図10、図11に示すものは、膨出突起58の取り付け位置の変形例であり、この例のものはカバー部材50の外周端折曲部55の外周側面に4個の膨出突起58を等間隔にカバー部材50と一体に形成したものである。   10 and 11 show a modification of the mounting position of the bulging protrusion 58. In this example, four bulging protrusions 58 are provided on the outer peripheral side surface of the outer peripheral end bent portion 55 of the cover member 50. FIG. It is formed integrally with the cover member 50 at equal intervals.

そしてこの膨出突起58も垂直面58a及び傾斜面58bを有し、垂直面58aはカバー部材50を締め付ける時計方向で見た場合その上流側、図11でいえば右側にくるように設定されるとともに、傾斜面58bはその下流側、図11でいえば左側にくるように設定される。   The bulging protrusion 58 also has a vertical surface 58a and an inclined surface 58b, and the vertical surface 58a is set to be on the upstream side when viewed in the clockwise direction for tightening the cover member 50, on the right side in FIG. At the same time, the inclined surface 58b is set to be on the downstream side, that is, on the left side in FIG.

そして、カバー部材50の締結時には、膨出突起58の垂直面58aに指を当て黒塗りの矢印で示す方向に力を加えカバー部材50を時計方向に回動することにより行うことができる。また、その締結は図4、図5のもので説明したように図13、図14に示す締結用工具80を用いて行うこともできる。なお、この場合、図4、図5のものより対向する平板状の係止部80c間の距離は長くなる。   When the cover member 50 is fastened, the cover member 50 can be rotated clockwise by applying a force in the direction indicated by the black arrow by placing a finger on the vertical surface 58a of the bulging protrusion 58. Moreover, the fastening can also be performed using the fastening tool 80 shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 as described in FIGS. In this case, the distance between the flat plate-like engaging portions 80c facing each other is longer than that in FIGS.

図12に示すものは、図10、図11に示すものの傾斜面58bに図8、図9に示すもののように2条の工具係止溝59を設けたものである。そして図15、図16で示すようにその先端に2個の係止部81cを有する専用の緩め用工具81を用いてカバー部材50を反時計方向に回動することにより緩めるものである。なお、この場合、緩め用工具81の2個の係止部81cは、対向するもの同士が向き合うように90度内側に折り曲げられるものになる。   In the structure shown in FIG. 12, two tool locking grooves 59 are provided on the inclined surface 58b of those shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, as shown in FIGS. Then, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the cover member 50 is loosened by rotating it counterclockwise using a special loosening tool 81 having two locking portions 81c at its tip. In this case, the two locking portions 81c of the loosening tool 81 are bent 90 degrees inward so that the opposing portions face each other.
