For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below, and the examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference signs represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0033] As Figures 1-3As shown, the bearing seat provided by the embodiment comprises a bearing 1, a first bushing 2, a second bushing 3, a shell and an oil inlet pipe 5, the bearing 1 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 100 and the inner ring of the bearing 1 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 100; the first bushing 2 and the second bushing 3 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 100 and rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 100; the shell comprises a body 41, a first end cover 42 and a second end cover 43, the body 41 is provided with an annular through hole for accommodating the bearing 1, the first bushing 2 and the second bushing 3, the first end cover 42 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 100 and opposite to the first bushing 2, the first end cover 42 closes the gap between the body 41 and the rotating shaft 100, the first bushing 2 and the first end cover 42 form a first labyrinth structure, the second end cover 43 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 100 and opposite to the second bushing 3, the second end cover 43 closes the gap between the body 41 and the rotating shaft 100, the second bushing 3 and the second end cover 43 form a second labyrinth structure; the oil inlet pipe 5 extends into the annular through hole and opposite to one end surface of the bearing 1. When the rotating shaft 100 rotates at high speed, the rotating shaft 100 drives the bearing 1 to rotate, at this time, the oil inlet pipe 5 sprays lubricating oil to lubricate the bearing 1, the high-speed rotating bearing 1 and the rotating shaft 100 atomize the lubricating liquid sprayed by the oil inlet pipe 5, at this time, the lubricating oil moves to the gap between the first end cover 42 and the rotating shaft 100 and the gap between the first end cover 42 and the rotating shaft 100, because the first bushing 2 and the first end cover 42 form a first labyrinth structure and the second bushing 3 and the second end cover 43 form a second labyrinth structure, therefore, after the atomized lubricating oil enters the first labyrinth structure and the second labyrinth structure, the first labyrinth structure and the second labyrinth structure will have a flow blocking effect on the lubricating oil gas in them, thereby preventing leakage from between the first end cover 42 and the first rotating shaft 100 and between the second end cover 43 and the second rotating shaft 100, thereby improving the sealing effect of the shell of the bearing seat, preventing the overflow of lubricating liquid, reducing the pollution to the environment and improving the utilization rate of lubricating oil.

[0034] Optionally, the first end cover 42 and the rotating shaft 100 form a third labyrinth structure. In the embodiment, in order to improve the sealing structure of the shell and prevent the lubricating liquid in the first labyrinth structure from flowing out of the gap between the first end cover 42 and the rotating shaft 100, a plurality of grooves are spaced apart and recessed on the surface of the first end cover 42 opposite to the rotating shaft 100 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 100, thereby forming a third labyrinth structure between the first end cover 42 and the rotating shaft 100. The third labyrinth structure has the same function as the first labyrinth structure, which will not be described here.

[0035] Optionally, the second end cover 43 and the rotating shaft 100 form a fourth labyrinth structure. In this embodiment, in order to improve the sealing structure of the shell and prevent the lubricating liquid in the second labyrinth structure from flowing out of the gap between the second end cover 43 and the rotating shaft 100, a flange is protruded around the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 100, the second end cover 43 is located between the body 41 and the flange, the second end cover 43 and the flange are respectively provided with a plurality of annular protrusions and a plurality of grooves, the plurality of protrusions and the plurality of grooves are one-to-one correspondingly inserted, and the second end cover 43 and the flange form the fourth labyrinth structure. The second labyrinth structure has the same function as the second labyrinth structure, and details are not repeated here.

[0036] Optionally, the bearing seat further comprises a third bushing 6, a static ring 7, and an exhaust pipe 8. The exhaust pipe 8 extends into the body 41 and communicates the annular through hole with the outside. The exhaust pipe 8 is located between the bearing 1 and the second bushing 3. The third bushing 6 is used to be sleeved on the rotating shaft 100 and synchronously rotates with the rotating shaft 100. The third bushing 6 is located between the bearing 1 and the second bushing 3. The static ring 7 is located in the annular through hole and is fixedly connected with the body 41. The static ring 7 and the third bushing 6 form a fifth labyrinth structure. In this embodiment, the function of the exhaust pipe 8 is to prevent the internal and external pressure difference from being too large, so that when the rotating shaft 100 rotates at high speed, the internal gas expands due to heat, and then the gas is discharged. However, after the atomized lubricating liquid drifts from the end of the bearing 1 close to the first end cover 42 to the end of the bearing 1 close to the second end cover 43, the atomized lubricating liquid is prone to being discharged together with the gas from the exhaust pipe 8. To solve this problem, the static ring 7 and the third bushing 6 are arranged between the bearing 1 and the second bushing 3, and the static ring 7 and the third bushing 6 form the fifth labyrinth structure. The throttling effect of the fifth labyrinth structure can reduce the flow speed of the atomized lubricating oil gas, so that the atomized lubricating oil condenses into droplets. The atomized lubricating oil gas can be prevented from being discharged from the exhaust pipe 8, thereby preventing the influence on the external environment and improving the utilization efficiency of the lubricating oil.

[0037] For the specific structure of the fifth labyrinth structure, optionally, a plurality of first protrusions 61 are protruded on the surface of the third bushing 6 opposite to the static ring 7 in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 100, a plurality of second protrusions 72 are protruded on the surface of the static ring 7 opposite to the third bushing 6, and the plurality of first protrusions 61 and the plurality of second protrusions 72 form the fifth labyrinth structure.

[0038] Optionally, the second protrusion 72 is provided with a chamfer 71 at the end away from the static ring 7. In this embodiment, the chamfer 71 can improve the throttling effect of the fifth labyrinth structure.

[0039] Optionally, the oil inlet pipe 5 is arranged between the first bushing 2 and the bearing 1, and the third bushing 6 is concave with a vortex groove 62 on the surface opposite to the bearing 1. In this embodiment, when the atomized lubricating liquid drifts from one end of the bearing 1 close to the first end cover 42 to the other end of the bearing 1 close to the second end cover 43, the atomized lubricating liquid will enter the vortex groove 62, and then form a vortex, which can accelerate the condensation of the atomized lubricating liquid.

[0040] Optionally, the bearing seat further comprises an oil storage ring 9 arranged in the annular through hole and between the bearing 1 and the oil inlet pipe 5, and the oil storage ring 9 is fixedly connected with the body 41. In the direction of gravity, the side of the oil storage ring 9 close to the ground is surrounded by the bearing 1 to form an oil storage groove 91, and the opening of the oil storage groove 91 is opposite to the rotating shaft 100. In this embodiment, the oil droplets condensed on the first bushing 2 flow into the oil storage groove 91 under the action of gravity. Since the oil storage groove 91 is surrounded by the bearing 1 and the oil storage ring 9, the lubricating oil in the oil storage groove 91 can also play a role in lubricating and cooling the bearing 1.

[0041] Optionally, the bearing seat further comprises an oil collecting tank 10 arranged outside the shell and in communication with the position close to the ground of the annular through hole. In this embodiment, the lubricating oil finally flows to the position close to the ground of the annular through hole under the action of gravity. Since the oil collecting tank 10 is arranged outside the shell and in communication with the position close to the ground of the annular through hole, the lubricating oil is finally collected by the oil collecting tank 10.

[0042] The embodiment further provides a centrifugal machine comprising the bearing seat in the above-mentioned scheme.

[0043] Obviously, the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application are only examples for clearly illustrating the present application, and are not intended to limit the implementation modes of the present application. Based on the above-mentioned description, any other different forms of changes or variations can be made by those skilled in the art. Here, it is not necessary and also impossible to exhaust all the implementation modes. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
