HIGH-PRESSURE LIQUID DELIVERY SYSTEM UNDER HIGH CENTRIFUGAL ACCELERATION CONDITION ON ARM-CENTRIFUGE

A high-pressure liquid delivery system under a high centrifugal acceleration condition on an arm-centrifuge, comprising a centrifuge main engine, a ground liquid source, a ground delivery conduit, a centrifuge bottom rotary joint, a centrifuge rotary arm delivery conduit, a rotary arm-basket pin roll, a basket rotary joint, a basket delivery conduit and a basket conduit outlet. According to the present disclosure, the basket rotary joint is introduced to adapt to the change of the basket-rotary arm angle before and after the arm-type basket centrifuge works, so that the demand for water, electricity, oil and gas transportation of the centrifuge is met. Therefore, the design for the conduit of the centrifuge-basket part is solidified, and compared with the traditional solution that a high-pressure hose is connected to the basket, the centrifugal acceleration load of the load can be increased to more than 500 g.
