Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a sealing device, in particular to a high-pressure sealing device for an ultra-high-pressure container, involving a pressure range of 100 MPa to 1600 MPa, and belongs to the technical field of mechanical tools. Background Art

[0002] The commonly used sealing structure of ultra-high pressure containers at present is a spherical surface and a conical surface for sealing, and the pressure applied between the conical surface and the spherical surface is used to squeeze the spherical surface, causing it to deform slightly to achieve sealing; the above technical scheme realizes the sealing function to a certain extent, but for the liquid pressure of more than 100MPa borne by the ultra-high pressure container, the pressure variation range is 0MPa~1000MPa, and the pressure variation range is large. It is easy to cause metal fatigue during long-term use, causing the metal elasticity to disappear. Since the above sealing structure is a single seal, leakage will directly occur after metal fatigue, affecting the reliable service life of the ultra-high pressure container; therefore, there is an urgent need for a sealing device that can extend the service life and has a good sealing effect under the ultra-high pressure state borne by the ultra-high pressure container.

[0008] Furthermore, the gasket (4) is a disc-shaped part whose cross section is consistent with the cross section of the cylinder (3), and through holes whose number and size match those of the through holes of the plug cover (2) are provided at both ends thereof for connecting the plug cover (2) via a set screw 1. The inner diameter of the gasket (4) is larger than the inner diameter of the cylinder (3) and is used to place a locking nut 8; the outer diameter of the gasket (4) is consistent with the outer diameter of the plug cover (2).

[0009] Furthermore, the Y-shaped elastic ring (5) is an annular part with a Y-shaped cross section.

A rectangular backing groove is arranged at the root of the open end and the root of the thread opened at the non-open end of the Y-shaped elastic ring (5). The Y-shaped elastic ring (5) is made of a high-strength elastic metal material. The maximum diameter of the Y-shaped elastic ring (5) should be smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder (3), and the minimum diameter of the Y-shaped elastic ring (5) is larger than the outer diameter of the small section of the plug cover 2.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper triangular ring (6) is a triangular ring with the inclined surface facing the inner diameter direction, and a rectangular groove is opened on the straight side at the outer diameter to place the O-ring, and its taper is consistent with the taper of the Y-shaped elastic ring (5) so as to fit tightly with the Y-shaped elastic ring (5).

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages:

[0017] (1) The present invention adopts the principle of triangular expansion and self-compensation. When the pressure inside the cavity is low, the O-ring is used for sealing. The Y-shaped elastic ring (5), the upper triangular ring (6) and the lower triangular ring (9) do not deform, thereby protecting the Y-shaped elastic ring (5), the upper triangular ring (6) and the lower triangular ring (9) from wear. When the pressure inside the cavity increases, the Y-shaped elastic ring (5) expands to both sides, squeezing the upper triangular ring (6) and the lower triangular ring (9) closer to the inside of the cavity, thereby forming a sealing structure. At the same time, the O-ring is squeezed into the groove provided in advance, thereby protecting the O-ring. Thus, the overall sealing structure forms different sealing forms in the low-pressure area and the high-pressure area, thereby reducing its action time and increasing its service life.

[0018] (2) When the upper triangular ring (6) and the lower triangular ring (9) are worn, the upper triangular ring (6) and the lower triangular ring (9) can adapt their positions in the cavity according to the magnitude of the expansion force, thereby forming a dynamic seal, which has an adaptive function.
