Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of conductive slip rings, and in particular to a sealing unit for a hydraulic slip ring. Background Art

[0002] Hydraulic slip rings are self-balancing components that facilitate fluid transfer. They are typically used to transport hydraulic media to hydraulic actuators above rotating equipment. During operation, their piston rods move left and right, radially loosening and tightening the chuck. Because hydraulic slip rings transport liquid media, they place high demands on valve seals. Poor sealing can lead to internal system leakage, shortening the life of the slip ring. Therefore, proper sealing of hydraulic slip rings is crucial. To avoid this, existing technologies offer the following solutions:

[0003] For example, a hydraulic slip ring proposed in publication number CN217207115U achieves sealing of the end face of the slip ring by welding a fixed disc to the end face of the slip ring.

[0004] For example, a hydraulic slip ring leakage status monitoring system proposed in publication number CN217004080U can detect and warn of ring leakage, thereby minimizing losses.

[0005] For example, the circular arc groove end face oil film seal hydraulic slip ring proposed in publication number CN101598217A utilizes the circular arc deep groove end face oil film seal to achieve non-contact oil film seal, reduce friction and extend service life.

[0006] However, the above method only addresses the end face and cannot solve the problem of internal leakage of the slip ring. In addition, the detection system can only detect faults but cannot prevent them. Therefore, the existing structural deficiencies are studied and improved, and a sealing unit for hydraulic slip rings is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Furthermore, grooves that match the inner ring protrusion 23 are machined in the lower protective shell 21 and the upper protective shell 22. The provision of four connecting parts 24 increases the connection strength between the lower protective shell 21 and the upper protective shell 22. The grooves and the inner ring protrusion 23 in the lower protective shell 21 and the upper protective shell 22 can cooperate and clamp with each other when the slip ring is working.

[0035] Furthermore, two limiting pins 221 are provided, and the limiting pins 221 are inserted into the limiting grooves in the lower protective shell 21 to increase the connection strength between the lower protective shell 21 and the upper protective shell 22.

The O-rings 31 are made of rubber and can produce different deformations in different working states of the slip ring to achieve a similar sealing effect. The height of the O-ring 31 is slightly higher than the inner ring protrusion 23, so that the O-ring 31 fits tightly between the stator assembly 2 and the rotor 1. The O-ring 31 is installed between the retaining ring 32 and the sleeve ring 33.

[0040] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the positioning pins 34 are evenly distributed along the collar 33 .

[0041] Furthermore, the provision of the four positioning pins 34 increases the connection strength between the collar 33 and the rotor 1 .
