Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sealing elements, in particular to a sealing pressure adjustable mechanical sealing element. Background Art

[0002] Piston mechanical seals are a key component used to prevent gas or liquid leakage in equipment such as hydraulic cylinders and pneumatic systems. Through sealing rings, gaskets and other components, friction and pressure difference are used to achieve static and dynamic sealing, ensuring efficient sealing performance under different working conditions, extending the service life of the equipment, and improving the stability and safety of the system.

[0003] Chinese patent CN221569400U discloses a mechanical seal, including a seal body, the seal body including a first engaging part and a second engaging part, the first engaging part is installed on the side of the second engaging part, an elastic receptor sealing ring is installed on the side of the second engaging part, and the elastic receptor sealing ring is respectively provided with a groove on both sides, and the second engaging part is provided with two engaging parts, and the sides of the two engaging parts are respectively provided with engaging balls, and the two engaging balls are slidingly engaged with the two grooves, and cooperate with the piston rod and the striking block. When in use, the piston rod squeezes the striking block, and the striking block squeezes the piston disc, so that the piston rod drives the piston disc to slide and connect inside the piston groove, and the sliding connection of the piston disc makes the engaging ball larger and more tightly engaged inside the groove, and through the cooperation of the piston rod and the striking block, the engaging ball can be more tightly engaged in the groove through the sliding connection of the piston disc, thereby enhancing the sealing performance of the seal and reducing the leakage of liquid or gas.

[0004] As shown in the above patent, in existing mechanical seals, the sealing ring is usually fixedly mounted on the piston.

[0026] See also Figure 7 to Figure 10In the embodiment of the present invention, the thermal expansion element includes a thermal expansion block 22, a mounting strip 21 and a locking block 24. The locking block 24 is arranged inside the mounting tube 18, and the locking block 24 is threadedly connected to the mounting tube 18. A plurality of thermal expansion blocks 22 are provided. The bottom end of the mounting strip 21 is fixedly connected to the slider 20. The plurality of thermal expansion blocks 22 are sequentially stacked between the slider 20 and the locking block 24.

The thermal expansion block 22 and the mounting strip The strips 21 are all made of rubber material, which expands when heated and contracts when cooled. When the ambient temperature rises, the thermal expansion block 22 expands, thereby pushing the slider 20 to move downward, causing the telescopic column 19 to move downward. When the ambient temperature drops, the mounting strip 21 contracts, thereby pulling the slider 20 to move upward, causing the telescopic column 19 to move upward.

[0028] The sealing ring 4 on the piston 1 can adaptively adjust the inner diameter under different ambient temperatures to balance the influence of thermal expansion and contraction of the sealing ring 4. The specific adjustment method is: When the ambient temperature rises, the temperature of the thermal expansion element rises and expands, thereby pushing the slider 20 to move downward. When the slider 20 moves downward, the connecting block 17 is pushed downward by the telescopic column 19. When the connecting block 17 moves downward, the rack 16 drives the spur gear 15 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting shaft 13 to rotate. The rotation of the connecting shaft 13 drives the first bevel gear 12 to rotate through the second bevel gear 14, so that the adjusting screw 10 moves upward, thereby driving the adjusting cone 5 to move upward. The upward movement of the adjusting cone 5 causes the adjusting column 6 to move toward the installation cavity 103 under the pressure of the sealing ring 4, so that the inner diameter of the sealing ring 4 is reduced, thereby compensating for the influence of the expansion of the sealing ring 4 caused by the temperature rise, so that the pressure change of the outer peripheral wall of the sealing ring 4 on the inner wall of the cylinder is small, and the sealing ring 4 is prevented from expanding in a high temperature environment and increasing its pressure on the inner wall of the cylinder. When the ambient temperature drops, the temperature of the thermal expansion element drops and contracts, thereby pulling the slider 20 to move upward. When the slider 20 moves upward, the connecting block 17 is pushed upward by the telescopic column 19. When the connecting block 17 moves upward, the rack 16 drives the spur gear 15 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the connecting shaft 13 to rotate in the opposite direction. The reverse rotation of the connecting shaft 13 drives the first bevel gear 12 to rotate in the opposite direction through the second bevel gear 14, so that the adjusting screw 10 moves downward, thereby driving the adjusting cone 5 to move downward. When the adjusting cone 5 moves downward, the adjusting column 6 moves in a direction away from the installation cavity 103 under the push of the second inclined surface 501 of the adjusting cone 5, thereby pushing the adjusting plate 7 to move, so that the inner diameter of the sealing ring 4 increases, thereby compensating for the influence of the shrinkage of the sealing ring 4 caused by the temperature reduction, so that the pressure change of the outer peripheral wall of the sealing ring 4 on the inner wall of the cylinder is small, thereby avoiding the shrinkage of the sealing ring 4 in a low temperature environment and reducing the pressure on the inner wall of the cylinder.
