To provide a can manufacturing pump impeller in which a stress of a base portion of a blade is prevented from increasing while improving the strength of a joint portion of a hub and a boss. In order to reinforce a joint portion of a hub and a boss, a plate is jointed to the inside of an impeller. In order not to overlap a base portion of a blade and the plate with each other on the hub, an opening portion is provided in the plate around the base portion of the blade on the hub. As a shape of the opening portion, a semicircular shape, a semielliptical shape, a rectangular shape, or a trapezoidal shape can be selected. Further, as a plate shape, a flat plate structure, a shell structure, or a curved structure can be selected.

Impeller

In an industrial pump, a bearing provided in a pump main body rotatably supports both end sides of a rotating shaft to which an impeller is attached. A shaft seal apparatus is arranged in adjacent to the bearing. The shaft seal apparatus is cooled by a cooling water introduced from an external portion. A shaft seal case is fitted to an inner peripheral surface of a bracket accommodating the shaft seal apparatus in accordance with a shrink fitting. A cooling water is circulated in a boundary portion between the bracket and the shaft seal case. It is omitted a work for closing an opening portion of a cooling means for circulating the cooling water by welding.

Industrial pump and manufacturing method thereof

A single-shaft multistage pump is provided to make small-sized and space-saved possible. The single-shaft multistage pump includes a rotary shaft on which impellers are disposed at multiple stages, bearings and for supporting the rotary shaft, and a balance device adapted to apply, to the rotary shaft, a balance thrust force opposing an impeller thrust force. A water-lubricated bearing is used as each of the radial bearings, and the rotary shaft is supported by the water-lubricated bearings with a balance member of the balance device interposed therebetween.
