Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical seals, and particularly relates to a non-flushing mechanical seal. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing development of industries such as petroleum, chemical engineering, aerospace, and natural gas transportation, the requirements for mechanical seals are getting higher and higher. For mechanical seals for transporting high-temperature media without a flushing system, the requirements are even higher. During the operation of the seal, the sealing end faces of the moving and static rings rub and wear against each other, generating a large amount of frictional heat, resulting in a sharp rise in the temperature between the sealing end faces. Without an external flushing system, huge thermal stresses are generated on the sealing end faces, and in severe cases, phase changes such as vaporization and cavitation may occur on the sealing end faces, causing increased wear and severely shortening the service life of the seal. Therefore, it is necessary to set up a cooling system connected to the outside, with a liquid inlet hole provided so that the fluid impacts the sealing end face for flushing and cooling of the sealing end face, and a liquid outlet hole is provided so that the fluid circulates to play a role in cooling the sealing end face; when multiple sealing structures are serially arranged at the shaft end, a cooling system is provided for the sealing end face of each sealing structure, making the mechanical seal structure complex.

[0032] See Figures 1-4 , which is an embodiment of a non-flushing mechanical seal proposed by the present invention. A non-flushing mechanical seal includes: a first shaft sleeve 10, a gland 20, a first sealing structure 30, a second sealing structure 40, and a non-flushing structure 50. The first shaft sleeve 10 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 100, and the gland 20 is fixedly arranged on the housing 200 of the mechanical equipment; the first sealing structure 30 and the second sealing structure 40 are axially connected in series between the first shaft sleeve 10 and the gland 20. The first sealing structure 30 is close to the atmosphere side, and the second sealing structure 40 is close to the medium side; a dynamic pressure groove for pumping outward to the outer diameter side is provided on the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40; the non-flushing structure 50 is used to achieve non-flushing cooling of the second sealing structure. The non-flushing structure 50 has a first sealing cavity 51 located on the outer diameter side of the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, a second sealing cavity 52 located on the inner diameter side of the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, a flow supply cavity 53 communicating with the second sealing cavity 52, and a flow through cavity 55. A movable first sealing ring 56 is provided in the flow through cavity 55. By the movement of the first sealing ring 56, it is used to achieve the communication between the first sealing cavity 51 and the flow through cavity 55 or the communication between the flow supply cavity 53 and the flow through cavity 55.
[0033] The gland 20 has a first gland 21 and a second gland 22 assembled together, where the first gland 21 is used to fix the first stationary ring 31 of the first sealing structure 30, and the second gland 22 is used to fix the second stationary ring 41 of the second sealing structure 40. When the fluid supply chamber 53 communicates with the fluid passing chamber 55, the first sealing ring 56 is located on the medium side of the fluid passing chamber 55, that is, on the left side shown in the figure. At this time, the first sealing ring 56 seals between the first sealing chamber 51 and the fluid passing chamber 55. The fluid supply chamber 53 communicates with the fluid passing chamber 55, and the liquid in the fluid supply chamber 53 can reach the fluid passing chamber 55 and be supplied into the second sealing chamber 52; the dynamic pressure groove on the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 pumps the liquid from the inner diameter side to the outer diameter side, that is, from the second sealing chamber 52 to the first sealing chamber 51. The liquid flows through the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 to take away heat and cool the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40; the continuous pumping of the dynamic pressure groove increases the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51. When the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51 is greater than the liquid pressure in the fluid supply chamber 53, the first sealing ring 56 in the fluid passing chamber 55 is pushed and moves towards the atmosphere side, so that the fluid supply chamber 53 is sealed from the fluid passing chamber 55, and the first sealing chamber 51 communicates with the fluid passing chamber 55; the liquid in the first sealing chamber 51 flows into the fluid passing chamber 55, then enters the second sealing chamber 52, and after flowing through the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, it flows into the first sealing chamber 51, forming a second circulation flow path for cooling that flows through the second sealing structure 40. When the liquid pressure in the fluid supply chamber 53 is greater than the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51, the pressure difference between the liquid in the fluid supply chamber 53 and the liquid in the first sealing chamber 51 pushes the first sealing ring 56 in the fluid passing chamber 55 towards the medium side, so that the fluid supply chamber 53 communicates with the fluid passing chamber 55. By setting the first sealing ring 56, it is ensured that each chamber in the non-flushing structure can be self-regulated according to the liquid pressure therein, adjusting the communication between the first sealing chamber 51 and the fluid passing chamber 55 or the communication between the fluid supply chamber 53 and the fluid passing chamber 55, ensuring the continuous operation of the second circulation flow path, and ensuring the cooling effect on the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40.
[0034] By setting the dynamic pressure groove and the non-flushing structure and forming a second circulation flow path for cooling that flows through the second sealing structure 40, the continuous flow of the liquid at the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 is achieved, which is used to take away the heat at the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 and play a role in cooling. Avoid setting a cooling structure for flushing the second sealing structure 40, which is beneficial to the simplification of the structure, and realizing the full liquid film lubrication state of the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, which is beneficial to improving the high temperature and high pressure resistance of the sealing device, reducing the friction and wear of the sealing end face, reducing the excessive frictional heat generated during the friction process, and improving the sealing service life; due to the continuous flow of the liquid through the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, the cooling effect is better.
[0035] The movement of the first sealing ring 56 is driven by the pressure difference between the liquid in the flow supply chamber 53 and the liquid in the first sealing chamber 51. There is no need to set up a structure for driving the movement of the first sealing ring 56, nor is it necessary to set up a monitoring system for the non-flushing structure, realizing self-regulation and facilitating the simplification of the structure. The flow-through chamber 55 is connected to the one with a larger liquid pressure among the first sealing chamber 51 and the flow supply chamber 53. That is, if the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51 is greater than the liquid pressure in the flow supply chamber 53, the flow-through chamber 55 is connected to the flow-through chamber 55; if the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51 is less than the liquid pressure in the flow supply chamber 53, the flow supply chamber 53 is connected to the flow-through chamber 55.
[0036] In order to maintain the pressure in the first sealing chamber 51, the non-flushing mechanical seal includes a second shaft sleeve 60 fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft 100. A pumping groove for pumping liquid into the first sealing chamber 51 is formed on the outer end face of the second shaft sleeve 60. The second sealing structure 40 is located between the first shaft sleeve 10 and the first sealing structure 30. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 100, the second shaft sleeve 60 is driven to rotate together. Through the pumping groove on the second shaft sleeve 60, the medium is pumped into the first sealing chamber 51. Under the combined action of the dynamic pressure groove on the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 and the pumping groove on the second shaft sleeve 60, after the pressure reaches dynamic balance, the liquid pressure in the first sealing chamber 51 is the highest, and the working medium will not leak out. And the first sealing chamber 51, the flow-through chamber 55, the second sealing chamber 52, and the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 form a second circulation path, which quickly takes away the heat generated at the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 under high-temperature conditions, reduces the frictional heat generated by the relative movement of the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40, improves the mechanical seal performance, and prolongs the service life of the seal.
[0037] In this embodiment, both the flow-through chamber 55 and the flow supply chamber 53 are annular cavities coaxially arranged with the first shaft sleeve 10. An annular groove is formed on the inner diameter side of the first shaft sleeve 10. After the first shaft sleeve 10 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 100, the flow-through chamber 55 and the flow supply chamber 53 are formed between the first shaft sleeve 10 and the rotating shaft 100. The flow-through chamber 55 and the flow supply chamber 53 are connected through the gap between the first shaft sleeve 10 and the rotating shaft 100. The first sealing chamber 51 and the flow-through chamber 55 are also connected through the gap between the first shaft sleeve 10 and the rotating shaft 100. Such a setting is conducive to the simplification of the structure, is conducive to processing and manufacturing, is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost, and is conducive to ensuring the structural strength of the first shaft sleeve 10.
[0038] To achieve the connection between the second sealing cavity 52 and the flow-through cavity 55, a first through-hole 57 is provided in the first shaft sleeve 10. One end of the first through-hole 57 is connected to the second sealing cavity 52, and the other end is connected to the flow-through cavity 55. The first through-hole 57 is used to supply the liquid in the flow-through cavity 55 into the second sealing cavity 52. Specifically, the first through-hole 57 is connected to one end of the second sealing cavity 52 close to the medium side. The first through-hole 57 has an axial section 571 extending axially away from the second sealing cavity 52 and a radial section 572 extending radially. The ratio of the length of the axial section 571 to the length of the radial section 572 is 5:2. By providing the axial section 571, the liquid flowing through the first through-hole 57 and entering the second sealing cavity 52 flows axially towards the atmosphere side, which is beneficial to the flow of the liquid towards the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 and beneficial to the flow of the liquid in the second sealing cavity 52. And by providing the axial section 571, it is beneficial for the flow-through cavity 55 to approach the first sealing cavity 51 axially and beneficial to shorten the distance of the gap between the flow-through cavity 55 and the first sealing cavity 51.
[0039] The distance between the left end face of the radial section 572 of the first through-hole 57 and the left end face of the flow-through cavity 55 is greater than the diameter of the first sealing ring 56, and the distance between the right end face of the radial section 572 of the first through-hole 57 and the right end face of the flow-through cavity 55 is greater than the diameter of the first sealing ring 56. When the first sealing ring 56 is located on the left or right side of the flow-through cavity 55, the first sealing ring 56 will not block the radial section 572 to ensure that the liquid flow from the flow-through cavity 55 into the radial section 572 will not be blocked by the first sealing ring 56.
[0040] To achieve the liquid supply in the supply cavity 53, a second through-hole 54 communicating the second sealing cavity 52 and the supply cavity 53 is provided in the first shaft sleeve 10, and the diameter of the second through-hole 54 is set to be greater than the diameter of the first through-hole 57. To ensure that the liquid reaching the second sealing cavity 52 preferably reaches the supply cavity 53 through the second through-hole 54, and preferably multiple second through-holes 54 are provided in the circumferential direction.
[0041] In other embodiments, the supply cavity 53 can be set to communicate with other chambers.
[0042] The outlet end of the first through-hole 57 is located at one end of the second sealing cavity 52 close to the medium side, and the sealing end face of the second sealing structure 40 is located between the first through-hole 57 and the second through-hole 54. The liquid supplied to the second sealing cavity 52 flows into the supply cavity 53 through the second through-hole 54. When the pressure of the liquid in the supply cavity 5 is greater than the pressure of the liquid in the first sealing cavity 51, the supply cavity 5 communicates with the flow-through cavity 55, and the liquid in the supply cavity 5 flows through the flow-through cavity 55 and then enters the second sealing cavity 52.
[0043] The non-flush mechanical seal further includes a cooling structure, which is used to achieve the flushing and cooling of the first seal structure. On the one hand, the cooling structure realizes the flushing and cooling of the first seal structure 30, and on the other hand, it inhibits the leakage of the sealed medium to the atmosphere. The cooling structure has a liquid inlet hole 211 and a liquid outlet hole 212 opened on the first gland 21. The liquid inlet hole 211 is located on the outer diameter side of the sealing end face of the first seal structure 30 to achieve the flushing of the sealing end face of the first seal structure 30. A third seal cavity 71 communicating with the liquid inlet hole 211 is defined between the first seal structure 30 and the gland 20, and the liquid outlet hole 212 communicates with the second seal cavity 52. The external isolating liquid enters the third seal cavity 71 through the liquid inlet hole 211, then enters the second seal cavity 52, and flows into the supply cavity 53 through the second through hole 54. When the pressure of the liquid in the supply cavity 53 is greater than the pressure of the liquid in the first seal cavity 51, the supply cavity 5 communicates with the overflow cavity 55. The liquid in the supply cavity 53 flows through the overflow cavity 55 and then enters the second seal cavity 52, and then flows out through the liquid outlet hole 212. The path of the liquid flowing through the liquid inlet hole 2, the third seal cavity 71, the second seal cavity 52, the supply cavity 53, the overflow cavity 55, the second seal cavity 52, and the liquid outlet hole 212 is the first circulation flow path, which realizes the cooling of the first seal structure 30 and is used to replenish the liquid for the second circulation flow path to adjust the liquid pressure in each cavity. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 100, the continuous pumping of the dynamic pressure groove on the sealing end face of the second seal structure 40 increases the liquid pressure in the first seal cavity 51. When the liquid pressure in the first seal cavity 51 is greater than the liquid pressure in the supply cavity 53, the first sealing ring 56 in the overflow cavity 55 is pushed and moves towards the atmosphere side, so that the seal between the supply cavity 53 and the overflow cavity 55 is formed, and the first seal cavity 51 and the overflow cavity 55 communicate. The dynamic pressure balance of each cavity is achieved, so that the liquid in the first seal cavity 51 flows into the overflow cavity 55, then enters the second seal cavity 52, and flows into the first seal cavity 51 after flowing through the sealing end face of the second seal structure 40, forming a second circulation flow path for cooling flowing through the second seal structure 40. At this time, the supply cavity 5 and the overflow cavity 55 in the first circulation flow path are not connected, that is, the liquid in the first circulation flow path flows through the liquid inlet hole 2, the third seal cavity 71, the second seal cavity 52, and the liquid outlet hole 212.
[0044] In order to enable the liquid to flow between the third sealing cavity 71 and the second sealing cavity 52, a pumping ring 81 is provided between the third sealing cavity 71 and the second sealing cavity 52 for pumping the liquid in the third sealing cavity 52 into the second sealing cavity 52. The pumping ring 81 is arranged on the first shaft sleeve 10. When the rotating shaft 100 rotates, the pumping ring 81 rotates together with the first shaft sleeve 10 to pump the liquid in the third sealing cavity 71 into the second sealing cavity 52; to ensure the circulation of the first circulation path, the liquid between the third sealing cavity 71 and the second sealing cavity 52 is made to flow through pumping, which is beneficial to ensuring the pressure of the liquid in the second sealing cavity 52. Specifically, a limiting ring 23 sleeving the outside of the pumping ring 81 is provided on the gland 20, and there is a gap for the third sealing cavity 71 and the second sealing cavity 52 to communicate between the pumping ring 81 and the limiting ring 23.
[0045] Describe the first sealing structure 30. The first sealing structure 30 has a first static ring 31, a first dynamic ring 32, a first pushing ring 33, and a first spring seat 34. The first static ring 31 is fixedly arranged on the first gland 21, the first spring seat 34 is fixedly arranged on the first shaft sleeve 60, a first spring is provided on the first spring seat 34, and a first pushing ring 33 is provided between the first spring and the first dynamic ring 32. The elastic force of the first spring acts on the first dynamic ring 32 through the first pushing ring 33, and the first dynamic ring 32 is axially movable and arranged on the first shaft sleeve 60. The pumping ring 81 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the first spring seat 34.
[0046] Describe the second sealing structure 40. The second sealing structure 40 has a second static ring 41, a second dynamic ring 42, a second pushing ring 43, and a second spring seat 44. The second static ring 41 is fixedly arranged on the second gland 22, the second spring seat 44 is fixedly arranged on the first shaft sleeve 60, a second spring is provided on the second spring seat 44, and a second pushing ring 43 is provided between the second spring and the second dynamic ring 42.
