The concrete pump spare part, the concrete piston connecting
flange, serves a specific function in connecting and securing the
concrete piston to the piston rod in a concrete pump. Here is a
description of its functionality:
- Piston Attachment: The primary function of the concrete piston
connecting flange is to securely attach the concrete piston to the
piston rod. The flange provides a stable connection point between
the piston and the rod, ensuring that they move together during the
pumping process. This attachment is crucial for the effective
transfer of hydraulic force from the piston rod to the concrete
piston.
- Alignment and Stability: The connecting flange helps align the
concrete piston with the piston rod, ensuring that they are
properly positioned and remain stable during operation. It prevents
any misalignment or movement that could lead to inefficiencies or
potential damage to the piston or other pump components. The stable
connection provided by the flange enables smooth and reliable
pumping action.
- Seal Integrity: The connecting flange plays a role in maintaining
the seal integrity of the pumping system. It helps ensure that the
concrete piston is securely sealed within the cylinder, preventing
any leakage of concrete or hydraulic fluid. A proper connection
between the piston and the piston rod, facilitated by the flange,
helps maintain the pressure and efficiency of the pumping process.
- Durability and Reliability: The concrete piston connecting flange
is designed to be durable and withstand the demands of
high-pressure pumping. It is made from robust materials that can
withstand the forces and vibrations generated during operation. The
reliable connection provided by the flange contributes to the
overall durability and longevity of the concrete pump.
- Compatibility and Replacement: The connecting flange is
specifically designed to be compatible with the concrete pump model
it is intended for. It is a replaceable spare part that can be
easily installed or replaced when necessary. Regular inspection and
maintenance of the flange are important to ensure its proper
functioning and to avoid any disruptions in the concrete pumping
process.
