Description
Sprut pump with cutting function { SPURT PUMP WITH CUTTING FUNCTION } The present invention relates to a sprue pump having a cutting function, and more particularly to a sprue pump having a cutting function capable of cutting foreign substances entering the pump to prevent the pump from failing due to foreign substances. A sprut pump is a submersible centrifugal pump with a single spiral vane formed on the impeller centered on the suction port. It is a submersible pump that is mainly installed underwater in places with a large amount of foreign matter, such as sewage, wastewater, solids, and sludge, and is designed to transport foreign matter without it getting caught on the impeller. However, even with a specialized sprue pump designed to effectively discharge foreign substances by forming only a single vane as described above, there was a problem where thin and long foreign substances, such as vinyl that were not filtered out during the pretreatment process, would wrap around the entire vane and easily get tangled in the impeller. Once foreign matter gets caught on the impeller, the pump's suction port becomes even more clogged by the subsequent foreign matter. This not only makes fluid transfer impossible but also causes frequent pump failures due to overload, and inevitably leads to cleaning or repairs such as clearing the blockage. To solve these problems, many submersible pumps equipped with a cutting function for cutting foreign substances have been developed in the past. When a cutter used to cut foreign materials is used for a long time, wear occurs, causing the cutting function to deteriorate. Therefore, conventionally, there was inconvenience because a new cutter had to be frequently installed when the cutter wore out.

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of a cutter according to a second embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is an operation diagram illustrating the process of a cutter descending in a sprue pump having a cutting function according to a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of a cutter according to a third embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 6 is an operation diagram illustrating the process of a cutter descending in a sprue pump having a cutting function according to a third embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 7 is an operation diagram illustrating the process of a cutter descending in a sprue pump having a cutting function according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, First embodiment FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a sprue pump having a cutting function according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded view of a cutting plate and a cutter according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The spring pump having a cutting function according to the present invention comprises, as shown in FIG. 1, an impeller (10), a driving motor (20), a pump casing (30), a cutting plate (40), a cutter (50), etc. The above impeller (10) is mounted inside the pump casing (30) and, by rotation, sucks fluid into the inside of the pump casing (30) and discharges it to the outside. The above drive motor (20) is mounted on the pump casing (30) and rotates the impeller (10). The above pump casing (30) accommodates the impeller (10) inside and forms a fluid passage through which fluid moves, and has an intake port (31) through which fluid flows in and an outlet port (32) through which the sucked fluid is discharged to the outside. Since the above-mentioned impeller (10), drive motor (20), and pump casing (30) are identical or similar to the configuration and structure of a general submersible pump or a spray pump, a detailed description thereof is omitted. The cutting plate (40) is fixedly mounted to the suction port (31) of the pump casing (30), and has a plurality of cutting holes (41) formed through it to allow foreign matter to enter from the outside. Accordingly, the suction port (31) and the impeller (10) formed inside the pump casing (30) are connected to each other through the cutting hole (41). The lower surface of the cutter (50) contacts the upper surface of the cutting plate (40) and is connected to the drive shaft (21) of the drive motor (20) to rotate together with the impeller (10). The cutter (50) cuts foreign matter entering the cutting hole (41) of the cutting plate (40) by rotation. That is, when foreign matter flows into the cutting hole (41), the cutter (50) rotates while its lower surface contacts the upper surface of the cutting plate (40), thereby cutting the foreign matter in the cutting hole (41). To do this, the lower surface of the cutter (50) must be sharpened. The cutter (50) may b
