Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to oil seal technical field especially a kind of high-pressure-resistant rotary oil seal suitable for high-pressure environment under hydraulic motor and other transmission components. BACKGROUND

[0002] Oil seal is mechanical element for sealing oil on transmission components, mainly used to isolate the output components in transmission components and components needing lubrication, to prevent lubricating oil leakage. Oil seal is widely used in hydraulic motors of engineering machinery, construction machinery and the like. Since the working environment pressure of these hydraulic motors is large, the maximum pressure can reach 30MPa, so it is necessary to develop high-pressure-resistant oil seal structure.

[0003] Most of the existing high-pressure oil seals adopt the structure of rubber wrapped outside the metal framework. However, the high rigidity of the metal framework can cause long-time wear of the oil seal lip at the fixed position, resulting in poor sealing effect, short service life, and ultimately causing leakage and damage to the transmission components. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new high-pressure oil seal structure to improve its durability and pressure-bearing capacity. SUMMARY

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a high-pressure-resistant rotary oil seal. The utility model significantly improves the pressure-bearing capacity and service life of the oil seal by using a plastic framework instead of a traditional metal framework and combining the design of a metal retainer ring, solving the problem of easy wear and short service life of the oil seal in a high-pressure environment in the prior art.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A high-pressure-resistant rotary oil seal is fitted outside a rotating shaft, and a rubber body, a framework and a retainer ring are sequentially arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft from top to bottom. The upper surface of the framework is adhesively arranged with the lower surface of the rubber body, and the retainer ring is arranged on the lower surface of the framework.

[0007] The framework is a plastic ring made of high-temperature and high-pressure resistant hard plastic, and the retainer ring is a metal ring made of high-temperature and high-pressure resistant hard metal.

[0008] The outer side wall of the framework is an outer vertical surface, the inner side wall of the framework includes an inner vertical surface and an inner inclined surface, and the inner vertical surface is arranged above the inner inclined surface. The lower surface of the framework is a lower bottom surface, and the inner inclined surface is arranged at an angle with the lower bottom surface.

[0009] The oil seal is provided with a three-layer structure of a rubber body, a skeleton and a check ring, the upper surface of the skeleton is activated and glued to the lower surface of the rubber body to be chemically cross-linked and bonded, and the structure provides good sealing performance and mechanical strength of the oil seal. The rubber body provides elastic sealing, the skeleton provides support, and the check ring enhances the pressure resistance and stability of the overall structure, and is suitable for high-pressure rotating environment. Specifically, when the oil seal encounters high pressure, the skeleton supports the oil seal structure to reduce excessive deformation of the shape of the oil seal, prevents the oil seal from failing due to high pressure, and the check ring is attached to the lower bottom surface of the skeleton to prevent the skeleton from being extruded. Therefore, the high-pressure-resistant rotating oil seal has strong pressure-bearing performance.

[0010] Further, the rubber body comprises an inner main lip and an outer auxiliary lip arranged inside and outside, the inner main lip is arranged close to the rotating shaft, and the upper surface of the inner main lip is arranged higher than the upper surface of the outer auxiliary lip. When the oil seal works, the inner main lip of the rubber body is close to the rotating shaft and plays a main sealing role. The outer auxiliary lip serves as auxiliary sealing and further prevents leakage. The inner main lip is higher than the outer auxiliary lip, so that the inner main lip preferentially contacts the rotating shaft and improves the sealing effect.

[0011] Further, a U-shaped groove is arranged on the upper surface of the rubber body, and the U-shaped groove separates the inner main lip and the outer auxiliary lip. The design of the U-shaped groove separates the inner main lip and the outer auxiliary lip, avoids mutual interference of the two, and provides better elastic deformation space, thereby enhancing the sealing performance of the oil seal.

[0012] Further, the inner side wall of the inner main lip is a guide slope, the outer side wall of the outer auxiliary lip is an outer slope, and a frosted surface is arranged on the guide slope and close to the skeleton. The design of the guide slope of the inner main lip and the outer slope of the outer auxiliary lip optimizes the contact state of the rubber body and the rotating shaft. The arrangement of the frosted surface increases the friction force, prevents the rubber body from slipping under high pressure, improves the sealing reliability of the oil seal, and further promotes the formation of an oil film to reduce the friction heat with the rotating shaft and enhance the service life of the oil seal.

[0013] Further, the height h of the frosted surface is 2 / 3 of the height H of the guide slope. The height of the frosted surface not only ensures sufficient friction force, but also avoids excessive wear and prolongs the service life of the oil seal.

[0014] Further, an inverted slope structure is arranged at the connection between the upper surface of the outer auxiliary lip and the outer slope. The inverted slope structure at the connection between the upper surface of the outer auxiliary lip and the outer slope reduces stress concentration and prevents the rubber body from cracking or deforming under high pressure.

[0015] Further, the upper surface of the skeleton is matched with the lower surface of the rubber body; the upper surface of the skeleton comprises a first top surface and a second top surface, the first top surface is arranged higher than the second top surface, and a circular arc surface is arranged between the first top surface and the second top surface.

[0016] The arc surface connection can enhance the adhesion of the two materials, further optimizes the cooperation of the skeleton and the rubber body, and improves the stability and sealing performance of the overall structure.

[0017] Further, the included angle between the inner inclined surface and the lower bottom surface is 95-100 degrees, effectively reducing the contact area of the skeleton and the rotating shaft, thereby reducing frictional heat generation and increasing the service life of the oil seal.

[0018] Further, the inner diameter of the retaining ring is consistent with the inner diameter of the lower bottom surface, the outer diameter of the retaining ring is consistent with the outer diameter of the lower bottom surface, and the retaining ring and the lower bottom surface are aligned, which ensures that the retaining ring and the lower bottom surface are tightly combined, thereby enhancing the pressure resistance and stability of the overall structure.

[0019] Further, the first top surface is provided with an inverted bevel structure at the connection with the arc surface. The inverted bevel can prevent burrs from being generated in this part, thereby enhancing the adhesion of the skeleton and the rubber body.

[0020] Further, the included angle between the guide inclined surface and the first top surface is 95-100 degrees, and the included angle between the outer inclined surface and the second top surface is 95-100 degrees, which optimizes the contact angle between the rubber body and the rotating shaft, thereby improving the sealing effect and durability.

[0021] Further, the skeleton is a polytetrafluoroethylene support ring, and the retaining ring is an iron retaining ring. The skeleton adopts a polytetrafluoroethylene support ring, which has excellent self-lubricating, high-temperature-resistant and corrosion-resistant properties; the retaining ring is made of iron material, which provides sufficient mechanical strength and pressure resistance.

[0022] Further, the rubber body, the skeleton and the retaining ring are of an integrated structure, which can significantly improve the overall performance of the oil seal, including the sealing performance, mechanical strength, high-temperature and high-pressure resistance and service life. At the same time, the integrated structure simplifies the manufacturing and assembly process, reduces the production cost and maintenance cost, and is suitable for various harsh working conditions and high-performance requirements. This design not only improves the reliability and safety of the oil seal, but also optimizes the space utilization and economy.
