A pump for handling liquids laden with abrasive particles in which the seal of the shaft between the low- and high-pressure stages comprises at least two floating rings provided on the shaft in a circular gap between the shaft and the casing. The casing has a circular collar at the side of the low-pressure stage, partly covering the circular gap which is adjoined by the rings during pump operation.

Seal means for a centrifugal pump

A pump for handling liquids laden with abrasive particles having impellers arranged in a counter-opposed manner on the pump shaft to rotate jointly with the latter. At the points of impeller mounting, the shaft has tapered surfaces whose apices face each other and the mating surfaces of the impellers are also tapered. At least one of the tapered surfaces of the shaft is formed by a bushing disposed with provision for moving axially along said shaft for pressing the impellers against the corresponding tapered surfaces of the shaft. This mode of mounting the impellers extends considerably the service life of the pump.
