DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The present disclosure relates to apparatuses, systems and methods for pumping liquids. In particular, the present disclosure relates to apparatuses, systems, and methods comprising plunger pumps and uses thereof.
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide improved apparatuses, systems, and methods for simplifying the pumping of liquids. For example, in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides plural component spray machines that utilize dual plunger pumps. All current plural component spray machines sold in today's marketplace require either a gear or piston pump for their operation, which results in longer setup time and spray pattern inconsistencies. The devices and methods of embodiments of the present disclosure overcome these obstacles by providing fast setup and consistent spray patterns.
Figure 1 shows a side and operational flow diagram of exemplary devices. The figure shows a plural component spray system with two flow lines that transfer a separated liquid component from a liquid storage component (e.g., external material drum) (Al and Bl) into the machine via either a transport component (e.g., a gravitational apparatus or optional transfer pumps A2 and B2). The liquid component from external material drum A (Al) that has been transferred either by gravitational apparatus or optional transfer pump (A2) is transferred through a filter housing connected to a hydraulic filter (A3). The liquid
component exits the filter housing and flows through two 90° pipe elbows (A4 and A5) and then enters into the IN connection (A6) of the A side motor and plunger pump unit.
Simultaneously, the liquid component from external material drum B (Bl) that has been transferred either by gravitational apparatus or optional transfer pump (B2) is transferred through a filter housing connected to a hydraulic filter (B3) and enters into the IN connection (B4) of the B side motor and plunger pump unit.
The liquid component exits the OUT connection (A7) on the A side motor and plunger pump unit and flows to the IN connection (A8) of the side A heating block and the liquid component exits the OUT connection (A9). The liquid component on the B side exits the OUT connection (B5) of the B side motor and plunger pump unit and flows to the IN connection (B6) of the B side heating block.
When the liquid component enters the IN connection (A8) of the side A heating block it transfers internally through the U shaped tube 23 and is simultaneously heated before exiting through the OUT connection (A9) of the side A heating block. When the liquid component enters the IN connection (B6) of the side B heating block, it transfers internally
through the U shaped tube 23 and is simultaneously heated before exiting through the OUT connection (B7) of the side B heating block.
The heated liquid component from the side A heating block exits through the OUT connection (A9) of the side A heating block and transfers to the side A EST connection (A10) of the fluid connection block and the heated liquid component from the side B heating block exits through the OUT connection (B7) on the side B heating block and transfers to side B of the fluid connection block (B8). The heated liquid component from the IN connection (A10) of the side A fluid connection block 24 is transferred through the OUT connection (All) of the side A fluid connection block into heated hose side A (A12) and the heated liquid component from the IN connection (B8) of the side B fluid connection block 24 is transferred through the OUT connection (B9) of the side B fluid connection block into heated hose side B (BIO).
The heated liquid component from the heated hose side A (A12) and the heated liquid component from the heated hose side B (BIO) is then transferred to the delivery device which in this case is a hand held spray gun device (CI). Both materials are then blended into a one part heated liquid component (e.g., polyurethane, polyuria, epoxy, or an adhesive).
Figure 2 shows an overview of an exemplary plural component spray device. The figure shows the instrument panel 12, resin line in with filter 13, iso line in with filter 14, transformer 15, iso/resin outlet block 16, resin motor and plunger pump unit 17, iso heating tube 18, resin heating tube 19, and iso motor plunger pump unit 20.
Figure 3 shows a close up of the motor-plunger pump unit 20. Shown is a motor (e.g. single phase motor) 21 and a plunger pump 22. The present disclosure is not limited to particular types of motors or plunger pumps. In some embodiments, a single phase motor and a 1.6 GPM plunger pump are utilized. Pumps and motors are commercially available.
Figure 4 shows a tree diagram representing an exemplary plural component spray system with two traditional flow lines with each line transferring a separated liquid component from an external material drum via either gravitation or optional transfer pump.
For each flow line, a gravity fed apparatus or an optional transfer pump (60A) is used to transfer a liquid component from the external material drum A (55A). In some
embodiments, a gravity fed apparatus or an optional transfer pump (60B) is used to transfer a liquid component contained in external material drum B (55B) The liquid component from external material drum A (55A) that has been transferred either by gravity or an optional transfer pump (60A) is then transferred to the electric motor and plunger pump unit A (66A) and the liquid component from external material drum B (55B) that has been transferred
either by gravity or an optional transfer pump (60B) is then transferred to the electric motor and plunger pump unit B (66B).
The liquid component from the external material drum A (55A) is then heated by transference from the electric motor and plunger pump unit A (66A) to the heating tube side A (72A) and the liquid component from the external material drum B (55B) is then heated by transference from the electric motor and plunger pump unit B (66B) to the heating tube side B (72B). The heated liquid component in heating tube side A (72A) is then transferred to side A of the fluid connection block (79) and the heated liquid component in heating tube side B (72B) is then transferred to side B of the fluid connection block (79).
The heated liquid component from side A of the fluid connection block (79) is transferred to the heated hose side A (87A) and the heated liquid component from side B of the fluid connection block (79) is transferred to the heated hose side A (87A).
The heated liquid component from the heated hose side A (87A) and the heated liquid component from the heated hose side B (87B) is then transferred to the delivery device which in this case is a hand held spray gun device 95. Both materials are then blended into a one part heated liquid component such as, for example, polyurethane, polyurea, epoxy, adhesives, etc. and sprayed in a variety of applications.
In use, the devices of embodiments of the present disclosure utilize fluid and hose lines (e.g., heated hose lines) and plunger pumps to transport one or more liquids from a tank or reservoir to a spray gun. The present disclosure is not limited to a particular application. Examples include, but are not limited to, industrial applications (e.g., spray insulation, adhesives, etc.), agricultural uses, and the like. Other uses include, but are not limited to, dual component high pressure systems, spray foam insulation, spray foam roofing, spray-in bed liners, sealant for basements, sealants for buildings, plumbing applications, swimming pool applications, and spraying of epoxies or polyureas.
All publications and patents mentioned in the above specification are herein incorporated by reference. Various modifications and variations of the described method and system of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.
