Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an explosion-proof cable inlet device, and more particularly to a high-protection explosion-proof cable inlet device and its sealing method. Background Art

[0002] The function of an explosion-proof cable inlet device is to seal various cables introduced into and led out of an electrical box, preventing harmful substances such as various fine particles and liquids from entering the electrical box, and it is mainly applied in flammable and explosive dangerous places. The environment in such dangerous places is very harsh, and there are usually a large number of fine particle dust, corrosive gas liquids, sunlight aging, and rain erosion. Currently, the existing explosion-proof cable inlet devices often have the problem of sealing failure, resulting in the entry of harmful substances such as various dusts and liquids into the electrical box, ultimately leading to faults in the electrical box and affecting the normal operation of the equipment it controls. The existing explosion-proof cable inlet devices mainly consist of: a boss on the housing and its cylindrical inner hole, a cylindrical sealing ring, a gasket, and a compression nut. During assembly, the sealing ring and the gasket are sequentially installed in the cylindrical inner hole of the boss, and then the compression nut is screwed into the inner hole and tightened, thus achieving the sealing of the cables introduced into and led out of the electrical box. Its sealing performance is achieved through the sealing joint surface, and there are a total of 2 sealing joint surfaces: the joint surface between one end face of the sealing ring and the bottom end face of the inner hole of the boss, and the joint surface between the inner hole side wall of the sealing ring and the outer surface of the cable. Since there are only 2 sealing joint surfaces, the sealing effect is not very good, the protection level is low and it is difficult to reach IP65 level, and it is even more impossible to be used underwater; also, due to the lack of a limiting measure for the screwing position of the compression nut, the sealing ring is easily over-compressed, and the material performance of the sealing ring is poor, resulting in a relatively short service life; also, since the compression nut has no anti-loosening measure, especially when applied in a vibrating place, it is very easy for the compression nut to loosen, resulting in sealing failure.

[0003] In summary, the existing explosion-proof cable inlet devices have the following disadvantages: poor sealing effect, low protection level, inability to be used underwater, short service life, and easy sealing failure. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a high-protection explosion-proof cable inlet device and its sealing method to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

A sixth sealing joint surface 41 is formed between the sealing ring 46 and the cable 42.

[0035] A sealing method for the high-protection explosion-proof cable inlet device described above includes the following steps:

[0036] (1). After assembling the sealing ring 46 into the second inner hole 21 of the boss 16, the cable 42 is passed through the first inner hole 6 of the sealing ring 46.

[0037] (2). The gasket 45 is placed on the rear end face 5 of the sealing ring 46. Then, the external thread 27 of the pressing nut 43 is passed through the inner diameter of the multi-layered wave spring 44. Then, the external thread 27 of the pressing nut 43 is screwed into the internal thread 22 of the boss 16. Then, the cable 42 is passed through the third inner hole 29 of the pressing nut 43 and into the inside of the housing 25. Then, a torque wrench is fixed on the hexagonal nut 32 of the pressing nut 43 and tightened according to the specified torque. At this time, the wave crests 30 and wave troughs 31 at one end of the multi-layered wave spring 44 are in contact with the outer end face of the boss 16, and the wave crests 30 and wave troughs 31 at the other end are in contact with the wave crests 30 and wave troughs 31 of the lock prevention end face 28 of the pressing nut 43, and the wave crests 30 of the pressing nut 43 correspond to the wave troughs 31 of the multi-layered wave spring 44.

[0038] 1. Redesigned the structures of the sealing ring and the second inner hole of the boss on the housing.

[0039] 1.1 The front end of the sealing ring is designed as an ellipse, and the rear end is designed as a cylinder. The major axis diameter of the ellipse is smaller than the outer diameter of the cylinder. Therefore, a step one is formed at the junction of the ellipse and the cylinder. A sealing rib one with a semi-circular cross-section is provided 3 mm away from step one on the outer surface of the cylinder. Then, sealing ribs two and three with semi-circular cross-sections are sequentially arranged at intervals of 3 mm. A circular inner hole one, which is a through hole, is provided at the center of the sealing ring 46.

[0040] 1.2 The bottom of the inner hole of the boss on the housing is designed as an ellipse, and the upper part is designed as a cylinder. The major axis diameter of the ellipse is smaller than the outer diameter of the cylinder. Therefore, a step two is formed at the junction of the ellipse and the cylinder. A sealing groove one with a semi-circular cross-section is provided 2 mm away from step two in the cylindrical part of the inner hole. Then, sealing grooves two and three with semi-circular cross-sections are sequentially arranged at intervals of 3 mm on the outer surface of the cylinder. The diameter of the semi-circle of the sealing groove is 1 mm larger than that of the semi-circle of the sealing rib. An internal thread is provided in the inner hole of the boss, and the internal thread only extends from the outer end face of the boss to sealing groove three and does not continue to extend.

[0041] 1.3 After assembling the sealing ring into the inner hole of the boss, at this time: the rear end face of the sealing ring is 8 mm higher than the position of sealing groove three; the front end face of the sealing ring fits together with the bottom end face of the inner hole of the boss to form a sealing joint surface one; the step one of the sealing ring fits together with the step two of the inner hole of the boss to form a sealing joint surface two; the sealing ribs one, two, and three of the sealing ring respectively fit together with the sealing grooves one, two, and three of the inner hole of the boss to form sealing joint surfaces three, four, and five; after passing the cable through the inner hole of the sealing ring, the inner hole side wall of the sealing ring fits together with the outer surface of the cable to form a sealing joint surface six. Therefore, a total of 6 sealing joint surfaces are available, which is 3 times that of the existing explosion-proof cable entry device, effectively and significantly improving the sealing performance.

[0042] 2. Set the compression rate of the sealing ring, and select a sealing ring made of excellent performance material.

[0043] 2.1 The total length of the sealing ring is set to be not less than 28 mm, of which the length of the ellipse is not less than 6 mm and the length of the cylinder is not less than 22 mm. The maximum effective compression rate of the sealing ring is 40%. The diameter of the central inner hole of the sealing ring is set to 12 mm. When the compression amount of the sealing ring is 8 mm, that is, the compression rate is 28.5%, the minimum outer diameter of the cable that can be effectively clamped and reliably sealed is 7 mm. At this time, the compression rate does not exceed the effective compression rate range. Therefore, the maximum compression rate of the sealing ring is specified as 28.5%, that is, the compression amount is 8 mm.

[0044] 2.2 The material of the sealing ring is selected as silicone rubber of Wacker brand in Germany, which has excellent performance in aspects such as temperature and humidity resistance range, solvent resistance, resilience, etc., and a certain proportion of antioxidant and ultraviolet inhibitor of metal oxide type is added during the secondary vulcanization process; the oven is heated to the specified temperature, and then the sealing ring is placed in the oven for the specified time to control the hardness of the sealing ring at 50-55 Shore A degrees. This hardness can effectively avoid the situation of pinching the cable insulation layer or insufficient clamping force. Because if the hardness of the sealing ring is too high, the corresponding clamping force will be relatively large, and the cable insulation layer may be pinched when the compression nut is tightened; if the hardness of the sealing ring is too low, the corresponding clamping force will be relatively small, and the clamping force on the cable may be insufficient to effectively clamp the cable when the compression nut is tightened, and the cable will loosen when it is pulled, resulting in seal failure.

[0045] 3. The end face of the compression nut is provided with an anti-loosening structure and multiple layers of corrugated springs are provided.

[0046] 3.1 One end of the compression nut is provided with an external thread, and the other end is a hexagonal nut, which is convenient for the torque wrench to fix when tightening the compression nut; the joint of the external thread and the hexagonal nut is the anti-loosening end face, and 6 wave peaks and 6 wave valleys are evenly distributed on the anti-loosening end face, and the height from the wave peak to the wave valley is 2 mm; a circular inner hole three and it is a through hole is provided at the center of the compression nut.

[0047] 3.2 The effective load of the multiple layers of corrugated springs is 5-10 N, and 6 wave peaks and 6 wave valleys are evenly distributed on both end faces, and the height from the wave peak to the wave valley is 2 mm. The inner diameter and outer diameter of the multiple layers of corrugated springs are the same as the inner diameter and outer diameter of the wave peaks and wave valleys of the compression nut; the material of the multiple layers of corrugated springs is selected as high-strength and corrosion-resistant high-quality stainless steel, which can effectively ensure a relatively long service life in the harsh environment of flammable and explosive dangerous places.

[0048] 3.3 Place the gasket on the rear end face of the sealing ring. Then, insert the external thread of the compression nut into the inner diameter of the multi-layer corrugated spring. Next, screw the external thread of the compression nut into the internal thread of the housing boss. Then, pass the cable through the inner hole of the compression nut and into the interior of the housing. Then, fix the torque wrench on the hexagonal nut of the compression nut and tighten it according to the specified torque. At this time, the peaks and valleys at one end of the multi-layer corrugated spring are in contact with the outer end face of the housing boss, and the peaks and valleys at the other end are in contact with the peaks and valleys of the anti-loosening end face of the compression nut, and the peaks of the compression nut correspond to the valleys of the multi-layer corrugated spring. At this time, the multi-layer corrugated spring has been compressed to generate a reaction force of 5 - 10 N in the screwing direction of the compression nut. Also, because the height from all peaks to valleys is 2 mm, it plays a limiting role in the free rotation of the compression nut. Therefore, it can effectively ensure that the compression nut cannot rotate freely after being tightened, resulting in loosening. Also, because the multi-layer corrugated spring itself has good seismic performance, it further effectively ensures that the compression nut cannot rotate freely after being tightened in a vibrating environment, resulting in loosening. Therefore, it can effectively avoid seal failure and make the seal more reliable.

[0049] 3.4 After the compression nut is tightened, sealing joint surface one, sealing joint surface two, sealing joint surface three, sealing joint surface four, sealing joint surface five, and sealing joint surface six are all effectively tightened and reliable sealing is achieved. Therefore, these 6 sealing joint surfaces can effectively ensure that the protection level reaches IP68, can be used underwater for 20 meters for a long time, and can effectively protect nano-scale microparticles, thus achieving high sealing performance and high protection level.

[0050] 3.5 After the compression nut is tightened, the top end of the compression nut has been screwed into the position of sealing groove three. At this time, the compression rate of the sealing ring is 28.5%, that is, the compression amount is 8 mm, which can effectively clamp the cable with an outer diameter of 7 mm and achieve reliable sealing. Since the internal thread of the housing boss only reaches sealing groove three, the compression nut cannot be screwed in further. This plays a limiting role in the screwing position of the compression nut, that is, the compression nut cannot be screwed in further even with a greater torque, thus effectively ensuring that the sealing ring will not be over-compressed. Therefore, it effectively ensures that the maximum compression rate of the sealing ring after the compression nut is tightened is 28.5%, which does not exceed the effective compression rate of the sealing ring and is in a "light load" condition. Therefore, the service life of the sealing ring is effectively improved.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art and related fields without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
