  • Patent number: 11619231
    Abstract: A complete bearing-sealed root vacuum pump system capable of promoting vacuum ability of a condenser of a power plant provides a complete bearing-sealed structure. All chambers are isolated effectively so that liquid cannot flow there between and thus not to destroy the root vacuum pump. Therefore, the lifetime of the root vacuum pump is prolonged. The heat exchangers are arranged between the root vacuum pumps and the front stage pump so as to return the condensed water. The condenser vacuum is improved and thus the power generation efficiency is promoted, and power consumption is lowered. As a result a large power plant can save several thousand tons of coals per year.

  • Patent number: 10570898
    Abstract: A modularized integrated non-coaxial multiple chamber dry vacuum pump is formed by at least two modularized vacuum chambers that can be integrated into a solid multiple stage dry vacuum pump. These chambers are connected in serial to allow gas to pass through and be discharged directly to the atmosphere. Each chamber contains a pair of lobes of its own and at least one chamber does not share at least one coaxial axle with another chamber. At least two chambers do not share all co-axial(s) and can have their own power drive at different RPMs from either different motors or transmissions.
