Electromagnetic vibrating diaphragm pump
An electromagnetic vibrating diaphragm pump enabling improvement of working efficiency in fitting center plates to a diaphragm, reduction of production cost and stabilization of performance between products. The disk-like second plate includes the cruciform rising portion having the concave portions, and the second ring rib. The first ring rib is formed at the center of the surface of the disk-like first plate coming into contact with the diaphragm, and a fitting groove provided with convex portions to be press-fitted to the concave portions is formed by this first ring rib. The diaphragm has the protrusions for preventing the diaphragm from being pressed out on the periphery of the through-hole at its center, and the protrusions are engaged with the ring ribs from the circumference of the protrusion.
1. An electromagnetic vibrating diaphragm pump for suction and discharging of a fluid by carrying out reciprocating vibration of an oscillator using a magnetic action and driving a pair of disc-like diaphragms provided at both ends of the oscillator,
wherein each of the disc-like diaphragms is sandwiched from both sides thereof by center plates comprising a pair of disc-like plates,
the center plates comprise a first plate having a plurality of convex portions formed on its surface coming into contact with the diaphragm and a second plate arranged opposite to the first plate and having a plurality of concave portions into which the convex portion are press-fitted,
the convex portions of the first plate are press-fitted to the concave portions of the second plate through an opening formed at the center of the diaphragm,
disc-like protrusions for preventing the diaphragm from being pressed out which protrude from both surfaces of the diaphragm are formed on the periphery of the opening of the diaphragm, and
ring ribs engaging with the protrusions for preventing the diaphragm from being pressed out from the outer side in a radial direction of the diaphragm are formed on the first plate and the second plate respectively,
wherein the first plate comprises a fitting groove for fitting the protrusion for preventing the diaphragm from being pressed out, the second plate comprises a fitting groove for fitting the protrusion for preventing the diaphragm from being pressed out,
among the ring ribs, a first ring rib of the first plate side is formed so as to be raised along a margin of the fitting groove and is protruded higher than the surface of the first plate extending from the first ring rib outward in a radial direction of the first plate, and among the ring ribs, a second ring rib of the second plate side is formed so as to be raised along a margin of the fitting groove and is protruded higher than the surface of the second plate extending from the second ring rib outward in a radial direction of the second plate.
2. The electromagnetic vibrating diaphragm pump according to claim 1 , wherein rotation-preventing protruded portions for preventing the center plates from rotating with respect to the diaphragm are formed on the edge of the opening of the diaphragm, the protruded portions being protruded toward the inner side in a radial direction of the diaphragm, and
a rising portion extending in a vertical direction from the surface of the first plate or the second plate coming into contact with the diaphragm and having a shape corresponding to the opening having the rotation-preventing protruded portions formed thereon is formed on the first plate or the second plate, the rising portion being engaged with the rotation-preventing protruded portions.
