Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a stern shaft end face sealing device of a ship power propulsion system, in particular to a high linear speed sealing device. Background Art
[0002] The stern shaft end face seal is used to seal the part of the propeller-propelled ship shaft passing through the stern tube to isolate seawater from entering the cabin. It is one of the main components of the ship shaft system. The stern shaft end face sealing device is a mechanical sealing device, which is composed of the contact surfaces of the static ring and the dynamic ring in the device to form a mechanical sealing pair, and cooling water is required to take away the heat generated by the end face sealing pair; the existing stern shaft end face sealing device mainly takes away most of the heat generated by the static ring and the dynamic ring sealing pair through the cooling water of the water inlet channel on the mounting seat body or the water flow formed by the cooling water on the water inlet channel of the static ring seat, such as the disclosed "Ship Stern Shaft Water Lubrication Sealing Device" (Announcement No. CN207762250U) and "Stern Shaft Sealing Device with Cooling Structure" (Announcement No. CN214367732U) patents; however, for the stern shaft end face sealing device with an extra-large shaft diameter, due to the high relative linear velocity between the static ring and the dynamic ring, the friction heat of the sealing pair generated is relatively large, and the cooling water design structure of the existing sealing device may not be able to take away the heat generated by the sealing pair in time, resulting in excessive temperature and damage to the sealing surfaces of the static ring and the dynamic ring, and ultimately failure of the sealing pair leads to failure of the sealing device product function. Moreover, the sealing device has no design for detecting the wear of the static and dynamic ring sealing pairs and the temperature of the sealing pairs, and is therefore unable to monitor the operating status of the sealing pairs in real time, and is unable to provide operating data support for fault prediction and life analysis of the sealing device. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of the operating characteristics and usage requirements of ultra-large shaft diameter high linear speed sealing devices, the present invention proposes a high linear speed sealing device to meet the cooling requirements of the high friction heat of the sealing surface of the large shaft diameter high linear speed sealing device, as well as the real-time monitoring data requirements of the seal pair wear amount and seal pair temperature required for the failure prediction and life analysis of the sealing device, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the high linear speed sealing device.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is: a high linear speed sealing device, including a mounting seat body, a spring assembly, a dynamic ring, a stationary ring seat, a stationary ring, a sealing pair formed by the stationary ring and the dynamic ring, a sealing ring is arranged between the stationary ring seat and the stationary ring, and cooling water channels are respectively arranged on the mounting seat body and the stationary ring seat, the cooling water channel of the mounting seat body is connected to the cooling water channel on the stationary ring seat, and the cooling water channel on the stationary ring seat is connected to the working surfaces of the stationary ring and the dynamic ring sealing pair through the water channel of the stationary ring, so that the cooling water can directly reach the working surfaces of the stationary ring and the dynamic ring sealing pair and take away the friction heat of the sealing pair, thereby meeting the cooling demand of the high friction heat of the sealing surface of the large shaft diameter high linear speed sealing device.
[0005] Furthermore, a displacement sensor and an infrared temperature sensor are provided on the stationary ring seat for detecting the wear amount of the sealing pair required for prejudgment of sealing device failure and life analysis, as well as real-time monitoring of the sealing pair temperature.
[0006] Furthermore, a cooling water inlet channel a is provided in the mounting seat body. After the cooling water enters the channel a, it is divided into two paths. One path enters the inner cavity of the sealing device through the oblique channel b of the mounting seat body; the other path enters the stationary ring seat channel c through the pipe. The stationary ring seat, sealing ring, sealing belt and stationary ring form a closed annular cavity.
[0007] Furthermore, the cooling water in the stationary ring seat channel c enters the channel d on the stationary ring through the closed cavity, and finally enters the working surface of the stationary ring and dynamic ring sealing pair, leaks through the working surface of the sealing pair to the inside of the sealing device and the outside of the sealing pair, taking away the friction heat of the sealing pair.
[0008] Furthermore, the sealing ring is dovetail-shaped and embedded in the dovetail groove in the stationary ring seat, which can ensure that the sealing ring does not fall off and effectively seals.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of channels d are provided in the circumferential direction of the stationary ring, which can ensure that cooling water effectively enters the entire stationary ring and the dynamic ring sealing pair.
[0010] Furthermore, a hose is provided between the cooling water channel a and the stationary ring seat channel c to adapt to the change in the distance between the stationary ring seat and the mounting seat body caused by the change in the compression amount of the spring assembly during the operation of the sealing device.
[0011] Furthermore, a filter is provided between the cooling water channel a and the stationary ring seat channel c to ensure the cleanliness of the cooling water entering the stationary ring and dynamic ring sealing pair to avoid damaging the working surface of the sealing pair.
[0012] Furthermore, a flow switch is provided between the cooling water channel a and the stationary ring seat channel c. When the cooling water flow is lower than the set value, an alarm is promptly issued for processing to ensure the flow of cooling water entering the stationary ring and dynamic ring seal pair.
[0013] Furthermore, one or more displacement sensors and infrared temperature sensors are arranged on the stationary ring seat, and the infrared temperature sensors are distributed circumferentially on the stationary ring seat, wherein the displacement sensor is used to measure the change in relative distance between the stationary ring seat and the dynamic ring to measure the wear amount of the sealing pair; the infrared temperature sensor is used to measure the dynamic ring temperature at the sealing pair between the stationary ring and the dynamic ring to determine the working surface temperature of the sealing pair.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0015] The high linear speed sealing device of the present invention is designed with a cooling water circuit and an internal structure of the sealing device. The cooling water directly reaches the working surfaces of the static ring and the dynamic ring sealing pair and takes away the friction heat of the sealing pair, thereby meeting the cooling demand for the high friction heat of the sealing surface of the large shaft diameter high linear speed sealing device. A displacement sensor and an infrared temperature sensor are arranged on the static ring seat, thereby meeting the real-time monitoring data demand for the seal pair wear amount and the seal pair temperature required for the fault prediction and life analysis of the sealing device.
