This invention relates to centrifugal pumps and particularly to a pump of simple construction and designed to operate efficiently when submerged in liquid.
One object of the invention is to provide a rotary pump that is continuously primed by liquid that passes into the pump chamber through an auxiliary inlet and out of the pump chamber through an outlet associated with said inlet.
A further object is to provide a self-priming pump that is adapted to be mounted on a boat propeller shaft and that is operated when the propeller shaft is driven with its priming inlet in communication with the body of liquid in which the pump is submerged.
An additional object of the invention is to provide a coupling member which may serve as a propeller retaining unit, that is adapted to be secured to a propeller shaft and a pump rotor that may be manually manipulated to attach it to the coupling member and to detach it there from.
A further object is to provide a pump so constructed that the torsional thrust exerted on the pump housing by the propeller shaft is substantially balanced by an opposed torsional thrust exerted by liquid discharging through one or more tangentially disposed outlets.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a pump housing so constructed that it can be readily adjusted to properly dispose its outlets to counterbalance the torsional thrust of a propeller shaft that rotates clockwise or to counterbalance the torsional thrust of a propeller shaft that rotates counterclockwise.
An important object of the invention is to provide a pump that is adapted to be attached to an outboard motor propeller shaft and that has a main inlet to which a suction conduit may be attached and an outlet through which air or Water or a mixture of air and water drawn through said inlet may be discharged into the body of Water in which the pump is submerged, the pump also having an auxiliary priming inlet opening to said body of Water and an outlet through which water drawn into the priming inlet is discharged, the latter outlet being provided with means for attachment of a delivery conduit through which water may be discharged under pressure, the pump being operable with r either or both of said conduits attached, whereby the pump may be used to suck water fromaboat or to deliver a stream of Water under pressure and may also be used to simultaneously deliver a stream of water under pressure to Wash 2 the boat and to suck the dirty water from the bottom of the boat.
With the above and other objects in View, the invention may be said to comprise the pump as illustrated in the accompanying drawings and hereinafter described, together with such variations and modifications thereof as will be ap parent to one skilled in the art to Which the invention pertains.
Reference should be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specication in which:
Figure 1 shows the pump of the present invention attached to the propeller shaft of an outboard motor and having a suction hose extending into the boat;
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the pump viewed as indicated by the arrows at 2--2 in Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is a vertical section through the pump taken on the line indicated at 3 3 in Fig. 2;
Fig. i is a front elevation of the pump;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary elevational view showing the coupling member employed for attaching a pump to the propeller shaft; and
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary sectional View showing the hose attachment detachably connected to one of the pump outlets.
In Fig. l of the drawings there is shown an outboard motor l of a conventional type that is pivotally supported upon a bracket 2 that is clamped to the rear end of a boat 3. The motor has an elongated housing extension d in the lower end of which is a horizontal propeller shaft 5 which projects rearwardly from the housing and carries a propeller ii, suitable driving connections from the motor to the propeller shaft being provided in the housing d.
The pump of the present invention Which is indicated generally by the numeral 'l is shown in Fig. 1 attached to the outer end of the propeller shaft t. A hose il is attached to the pump l and extends into the boat 3 so that it may be used to suck Water from the boat. The pump of the present invention has a rotor shaft t that is adapted to be attached to and to be driven by the propeller shaft 5.
The housing of the pump comprises a central internally cylindrical ring IEB and inner and outer side members il and l2 that are secured to opposite sides of the ring. The members l I and i2 are provided with marginal recesses I3 and it in which opposite side edges of the ring it nt. The portions of the members li and I2 that nt within the ring I@ have fiat inner faces I5 and i6 which form the side Walls of a cylindrical rotor chamber I'I. The side members II and I2 may be fastened together and to the ring i0 by suitable means such as bolts I3 that extend through marginal portions of the side members and through bosses I9 formed in the ring Ii'i.
The rotor shaft e is journaled in bearings 2G and 2I mounted in the side members Ii and I2 and positioned at opposite sides of the rotor chamber I 'l centrally thereof. The inner side member I I is provided with a radial tubular extension 22 to which the suction hose 3 may be attached, the extension 22 being connected to the rotor chamber I'I through an inlet port Vi3 outwardly of the rotor shaft but adjacent thereto. A cover member IIa of streamlined form is attached to the inner side member Ii and faces the propeller when the pump is attached tc the propeller shaft. The cover member IIa is cupshaped and provides a priming chamber 24 that communicates with the rotor chamber Il through an `inlet 25 that is near the rotor shaft on the side of the rotor shaft opposite the inlet 23. Elongated openings 26 may be provided in the wall of the member Ila to permit free flow of water into the priming chamber, the openings 25 being made narrow so that solid objects of suillcient size to clog the pump are not drawn into the pump. The ring IB forming the periphery of the pump chamber is provided with diametrically opposite discharge ports 2l and 28, the port 2l being spaced radially outwardly and in substantial radial alinement with the main inlet port 23 and the port 28 being spaced outwardly from the priming port 25 and substantially in radial alinement therewith. Tangential passages 29 and 3!! are formed in the ring Iii and extend outwardly from the ports 21 and 28 through integral projecting portions SI and 32 carried by the ring i9.
A rotor 33 has a running nt in the chamber il and is keyed to the shaft 9. The rotor 33 is preferably so connected to the shaft 9 that the shaft 9 can be withdrawn endwise from the hub of the rotor. A key 34 which may be in the form of a cylindrical pin fits in grooves 35 and 36 formed in the shaft 9 and upon the interio-r of the rotor hub. The rotor 33 is so constructed that it causes Water drawn into the chamber Il' to travel circumferentially and develop a pressure due to centrifugal force which causes an outward now through the tangential outlets.
Various forms of rotors may be employed which have one or more pockets of radial and circumferential dimensions such that communication is established between each of the inlets and its alined outlet intermittently during operation, the inlets being brought into communication with their alined outlets successively during each revolution of the rotor. As herein shown the rotor has radial vanes 3'! that have a running fit within the cylindrical interior of the ring I and between the inner faces I5 and IB of the side members I I and I2. The vanes 31 provide a series of circumferentially spaced pockets in the rotor each adapted to register successively with the inlets 2i? and 25 and each communicating simultaneously with each inlet and its associated outlet. The rotor at all times seals the space between the inlets 23 and 25 so that the pumping action of the rotor passing one of the inlets is independent of its pumping action at the other inlet.
During the passage of a rotor` pocket past the priming inlet and its associated outlet, the pocket is rst substantially nlled with water entering through the inlet 25 and then substantially emptied by discharge through the outlet passage 3U before registering with the inlet 23. The discharge of water by centrifugal force through the outlet passage 30 establishes a subatmospheric pressure in the rotor pocket which creates suction in the conduit 3 when the pocket registers with the inlet 23. In order to more completely discharge the liquid from the rotor pockets and thereby increase the suction, the cross sectional area of the passage 36 is preferably substantially greater than the cross sectional area of the inlet 25. It is also desirable to completely discharge water drawn through the inlet 25A and the outlet passage .29 is also preferably of a cross sectional area greater than that of its associated inlet 23.
Since the pump 'I is mounted rearwardly and downstream with respect to the propeller S and the openings 2B in the side member Ila of the pump casing face the propeller S, water is forced by the propeller through the openings 26 and chamber 24 to the priming inlet 25. The delivery of priming liquid under pressure to the inlet 25 increases the volume of water entering the pump through the priming inlet with the result that air in the rotor pockets is more completely displaced by the priming water and the suction in the boat bailing hose 8 is increased.
The tangential arrangement of the discharge passages 29 and 353 causes a torsional thrust to be exerted upon the pump housing during operation of the pump. As shown in the accompanying drawings, the rotor turns in a clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. 2, and the thrust on the housing due to ow of water through the discharge passages 29 and 33 is counterclockwise. The passages 2@ and 30 are of such length and at an angle to a radii intersecting their inner ends that the ,torsional thrust on the housing exerted by the propeller shaft during operation is substantially balanced and little if any force is required to hold the pump housing against turning movement about its axis.
Some makes of outboard motors have propeller shafts that are driven clockwise as viewed at 2-2 in Fig. l, and other makes are driven counterclockwise. In order vto enable the pump to be used with either type of outboard motor, the central ring Il] in which the outlet passages 29 and 3G are formed is reversible between the side members II and I2, so that each outlet passage may 5 extend in the direction opposite that shown in Fig. 2 for a countercloekwisc driven propeller shaft.
A quick detachable attaching and driving connection is provided between the rotor shaft 9 and the propeller shaft 5 and this connection preferably comprises parts which telescope, which have interengaging portions that are interlocked by the driving thrust of the propeller shaft and that can be disengaged by a relative turning movement in the direction of the driving thrust. The rotor shaft 9 has an enlarged inner end 33 which provides a shoulder 3Q that bears against the inner bearing member 2G and the enlarged end portion 33 of the shaft `Si is provided with a socket s0 which forms part of a coupling and driving connection between the shafts 5 and the socket d@ having internal torque transmitting and retaining means such as a screw thread il I.
The outer face of the side member I2 Vis Drovided with a central recess #32 which receives a member i3 attached to the outer end of the shaft 9. The member 43 is shaped to provide a finger grip for turning the shaft Si manually and is secured to the outer end of the shaft 9 by means of a screw 44. During operation the member 43 turns with the shaft 9 within the recess 42 and in attaching the shaft 9 to a propeller or other driving mechanism the member 43 provides a convenient means for turning the shaft 9 manually. A suitable washer 45 may be interposed between the member 43 and the outer end of the bearing member 2t.
For attaching the rotor shaft Si to a propeller shaft a coupling member ft is provided which may serve as the propeller retaining nut which, as herein shown, has a hexagonal body and is internally screw threaded so that it may be screwed onto the propeller shaft and serve as the propeller retaining nut. A cotter pin 4l' may be provided for securing the combined propeller retaining nut and coupling member against rotation on the propeller shaft. The member llt has a reduced outer end 48 adapted to enter the socket 40 and provided with an external thread le adapted to engage with the thread lil in the socket 40. The threads 4l and til are preferably coarse pitch threads so that only a small turning movement is required to fasten the shaft s to the coupling member. The inclination of the threads i and :t9 is such that the torsion applied to the shaft 9 during operation of the pump I5 will tighten the threaded connection between the Shaft and coupling member. To facilitate the connection of the rotor shaft 5 to the coupling member r6 a pilot pin 50 is provided in the socket 4U centrally thereof, and the reduced end i8 of the coupling member is provided with a bore 5i forming a socket to receive the pin te. The thread 49 of the coupling member preferably terminates short of the outer end of the reduced "5 portion d8 so that the coupling member can engage with the pilot se before the threads :i9 come into engagement with the threads di, thereby insuring the correct registry of the mating threads of the coupling member and shaft.
The pump of the present invention is adapted to deliver liquid under pressure as well as to create a suction. By connecting a suitable delivery conduit to the outlet passage 2S water may be pumped from the body of water in which the pump is submerged.
The projecting portion 32 of the housing is provided with a recessed end 52 to receive a hose attaching member 53 that has a iiange Si?, which is secured to a boss 55 on the periphery of the pump housing by means of a screw 55, as shown in Fig. 6. The member has interiitting engagement with the recessed end 52 and forms a continuation of pump outlet .Tet providing means for attaching a delivery conduit such as a flexible hose 5l.
Since the flow of liquid through the inlet E5 and the outlet passage Bt is independent of the :dow of duid through the inlet 23 and outlet passage Zii, water may be drawn from the body of water in which the pump submerged and discharged under pressure through the hose 5i while air, water or air and water is being drawn into the pump through the hose Si and discharged into the body of water in which the pump is submerged. The pump is intended to be used primarily for bailing water from a boat, but when it is desired to wash the boat, clean water may be discharged through the hose 5l and dirty water accumulating in the bottom of the boat may at the same time be sucked out through the hose t. Because of the fact that the openings 2t are in the side of the pump casing that faces the propeller e so that water is forced under pressure to the inlet 25, there is a greater discharge pressure (ill in the hose 51 than would otherwise be obtained.
It is to be understood that in accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes, variations and modifications of the specific devices herein shown and described may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
