2. Description of the Prior Art It is known to cast pump housings in one piece with cores provided to define two chambers, i.e. a suction chamber and a compression chamber as they are required for conventional circulating pumps. Such a casting process, however, is expensive. Furthermore, quantity production can be carried out only with relatively corrodable materials. Manufacture of such pumps using materials which do not corrode, for use in swimming pool applications, is not possible because of economic reasons.
In addition the conventional pump housings are usually bolted. As a result thereof, distortion and/or buckling of the housing may occur due to expansion or to pressure surges which may be introduced by water hammer.
Attempts have been made to provide circulating pumps which can be produced in an economical manner, which are rust proof, corrosion resistant, and which are of simple design. However, these attempts have been of limited success heretofore.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, one object of the present invention is to provide a corrosion-resistant circulating, normal, or self-priming pump, suitable for swimming pool applications, of simple design which can be manufactured inexpensively. The circulating pump according to the present invention is provided with a housing which is formed from two parts, namely a suction part and a pressure part. Between these two parts there is provided an intermediate part. The suction part and the pressure part are joined to the intermediate part in a non-detachable manner and without packing or sealing elements in a substantially distortion-resistant arrangement. The pump housing, as well as an impeller, the filter, and a cover plate (which can be removed for cleaning) are all made of corrosion-resistant material, preferably a suitable plastic and/or corrosion-resistant metallic material.
According to one advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the suction part and the pressure part are inserted into circular grooves provided in the intermediate part. Suction part, pressure part, andintermediate part may also be joined to each other'by cementing and/or by welding.
A removable filter is inserted into an openingwhich is provided in the suction part of the pump housing. Said opening can be closed by a cover plate for cleaning. The cover plate may consist of transparent material so that the degree to which the filter is clogged, can be determined from the outside. In order more readily to be cleaned, the impeller is preferably designed as a vane-type impeller without a cover plate.
According to another embodiment of the present invention there is a non-rotating hard disk of resin impregnated glass fibers (such as heat-stabilized polyamide 6,6 reinforced by 25 percent of glass fiber) mounted in the pressure part of the pump casing opposite the impeller. Other glass-reinforced thermoplastics and metals may be used also in this service.
The motor which drives the impeller may form a structural unit with said impeller or it may be fastened to the pump housing by means of a mounting flange. The motor may be of the water or liquid meter type with mechanism and indicator operating wet, i.e., a submerged water meter or, respectively, as a water or liquid meter type 'with mechanism and indicator operating dry. When using such a liquid meter type motor, the mounting flange serves as a support for the bearing ring and packing which seals a suitably arranged driving shaft.
It is an especially advantageous feature of the pump according to this invention that the impeller and the filter can be exchanged without having to dismantle the pump housing. The pump according to this invention thus represents a light weight, rust proof, corrosion resistant circulating pump, especially useful for swimming pools that can be manufactured readily and economically and can be installed and/or removed conveniently. When using plastic material in its construction, this pump produces considerably less noise than those used heretofore. This pump also has a longer service life than those used heretofore.
Other objects of this invention and advantageous features thereof will become apparent as the description proceeds.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The present invention will be described hereinafter in greater detail by referring to the attached drawing in which FIG. 1 illustrates a preferred circulating pump according to the present invention in cross-sectional view and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A- A of FIG. 1.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT As shown in the drawing, pump housing 1 is constructed essentially of three parts, namely suction part 2 which embraces a suction chamber, pressure part 3 which embraces a pressure chamber, and intermediate part 4. Said intermediate part 4 connects the suction part with the pressure part. Intermediate part 4 is joined to said suction part 2 and said pressure part 3 in amanner resistant to distortion and without the use of packing elements. The parts to be joined, i.e. suction part 2 and pressure part 3, are inserted into two slots or grooves 5 which are provided opposite each other in peripheral rim 18 of intermediate. part 4. Parts 2 and 3 are firmly joined to intermediate part 4 by cementing (for example using joined plastic dissolved in ethyl ketone) and/or by welding. Any other suitable connecting technique can be used, provided the cemented (or welded) joints have a strength of at least percent to percent of the extruded or otherwise formed materials.
Such a construction results in a homogeneous stress distribution so that plastics of the. acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene polymer type (such as one with a tensile breaking strength of not less than 420 kp/sq.m. at 23 C. according to ASTM/D 638-61 T, a bending strength with no breaking at 23 C. according to ASTM/D 790-61, and a Youngs Modulus at 23 C. 22000 kp/cm according to ASTM/D 636-61 T) can be used for the housing. The tensile strength of said acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene polymer type thermoplastics is of the magnitude whereby a self-supporting pump housing of uniform stress resistance provides optimums from both structural and economic points of view. Other suitable thermoplastics, which are capable sufiiciently of being connected, can also be used.
The disadvantage encountered with conventional circulating pumpswhichare provided with a closed box-type impeller is that in this application they tend to become choked quite readily. This tendency is reduced by employing a vane-type impeller with rearwardly leaning radial vanes according to the present invention. A non-rotating hard disk 6 is'attached to intermediate part 4. Hard disk 6 is replaceable and is of considerably harder material than impeller 7. This feature is of importance for a proper functioning of the pump because vane-type impeller 7 can be replaced more readily than the non-rotating hard disk 6.
The specific construction-of the pumpaccording to the present invention renders it possible readily to pull out motor 13 and shaft 12 with impeller 7 from pump housing 1 whereby neither pressure connection 16 nor suction connection 17 need be dismantled from the pipe system. Likewise filter 9 can be removed from the pump housing by simply removing cover plate 10.
Because plastic materials are here used for the housing, even at subfreezing temperatures the pump housing will not be damaged although filled with water that freezes therein.
We claim: 1. A self-priming circulating pump especially suited 5 for use with a swimming pool and comprising in combination:
