Abstract

The invention discloses a high-low pressure lubrication system for a high-horsepower plunger pump, including a high-pressure oil line and a low-pressure oil line, the high-pressure oil line is used for lubricating the connecting rod bearing bushes and the crosshead bearing bushes in the plunger pump, the low-pressure oil line is used for lubricating the crankshaft bearings, the crosshead sliding rails, the reduction gearbox bearing, and the reduction gearbox gear pair in the plunger pump. The beneficial effects are as follows: oil is fed in two passages: a high-pressure oil line and a low-pressure oil line, the high-pressure oil line is used for lubricating the connecting rod bearing bushes and the crosshead bearing bushes, and the low-pressure oil line is used for lubricating the crankshaft bearings, the crosshead sliding rails, the reduction gearbox bearing, and the reduction gearbox gear pair; two oil pumps are employed to supply oil so that the oil supply of each oil line could be better guaranteed, thus better distributing the lubricating oil, and avoiding problems of uneven distribution of lubricating oil caused by excessive lubrication branches and insufficient amount of lubricating oil at each lubricating point, thus enhancing the utilization of lubricating oil, reducing abnormalities; both the high-pressure oil line and the low-pressure oil line utilize two-stage filtration, which can reduce impurities in the lubricating oil and improve the life time of various components in the plunger pump.
