Abstract

Provided is an intensifier capable of cleaning a portion where pressurized raw material adheres without disassembling the inside. The intensifier for pressurizing raw material using medium supplied from a driving pump including: a low-pressure cylinder to which the medium is supplied; a high-pressure cylinder fixed to the low-pressure cylinder; a piston that slides inside the low-pressure cylinder and the high-pressure cylinder by the medium supplied to the low-pressure cylinder; a bottom adapter that supports the piston for sliding motion; and a resin portion disposed on an inner periphery of the bottom adapter.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An intensifier configured to pressurize raw material using medium supplied from a driving pump, the intensifier comprising:
a low-pressure cylinder to which the medium is supplied;
a high-pressure cylinder fixed to the low-pressure cylinder;
a piston configured to slide inside the low-pressure cylinder and the high-pressure cylinder by the medium supplied to the low-pressure cylinder;
a bottom adapter configured to support the piston for sliding motion, the bottom adapter including a cleaning liquid supply port to which cleaning liquid is supplied and a cleaning liquid discharge port through which the cleaning liquid supplied into the bottom adapter is discharged;
a fixing portion disposed radially outside of and overlying the bottom adapter and configured to fix the bottom adapter inside the high-pressure cylinder; and
an axially extending resin portion disposed along an inner periphery of the bottom adapter in position to support sliding movement of the piston,
wherein a cleaning flow path through which the cleaning liquid is discharged from the cleaning liquid discharge port extends axially along an outer periphery of the bottom adapter and an inner periphery of the fixing portion in a gap therebetween.

2. The intensifier according to claim 1 , wherein the resin portion includes a resin groove on an outer periphery thereof, the resin groove forming part of the cleaning flow path.

3. The intensifier according to claim 1 , wherein the bottom adapter includes a plurality of the cleaning liquid supply ports disposed evenly in a circumferential direction, and a plurality of the cleaning liquid discharge ports disposed evenly in the circumferential direction.

4. The intensifier according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a cleaning inlet through which the cleaning liquid flows from outside, the cleaning inlet communicating with the cleaning liquid supply port; and
a cleaning outlet through which the cleaning liquid is discharged to outside, the cleaning outlet communicating with the cleaning liquid discharge port.

5. The intensifier according to claim 1 , further comprising a cleaning outlet that is at a position axially shifted from a cleaning inlet without communicating with the cleaning liquid supply port.

6. The intensifier according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a cleaning inlet through which the cleaning liquid flows from outside, the cleaning inlet communicating with the cleaning liquid supply ports; and
a cleaning outlet through which the cleaning liquid is discharged to outside, the cleaning outlet communicating with the cleaning liquid discharge ports.

7. An atomizer, comprising:
a liquid supply pump configured to pressurize and supply raw material;
the intensifier according to claim 1 for pressurizing the raw material;
an ultra-high pressure filter configured to filter the pressurized raw material; and
an ejection chamber configured to eject the filtered raw material.

8. An atomizer, comprising:
a liquid supply pump configured to pressurize and supply raw material;
the intensifier according to claim 2 for pressurizing the raw material;
an ultra-high pressure filter configured to filter the pressurized raw material; and
an ejection chamber configured to eject the filtered raw material.

9. An atomizer, comprising:
a liquid supply pump configured to pressurize and supply raw material;
the intensifier according to claim 3 for pressurizing the raw material;
an ultra-high pressure filter configured to filter the pressurized raw material; and
an ejection chamber configured to eject the filtered raw material.

10. An atomizer, comprising:
a liquid supply pump configured to pressurize and supply raw material;
the intensifier according to claim 4 for pressurizing the raw material;
an ultra-high pressure filter configured to filter the pressurized raw material; and
an ejection chamber configured to eject the filtered raw material.

11. An atomizer, comprising:
a liquid supply pump configured to pressurize and supply raw material;
the intensifier according to claim 5 for pressurizing the raw material;
an ultra-high pressure filter configured to filter the pressurized raw material; and
an ejection chamber configured to eject the filtered raw material.
