Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sealing airtightness detection, and in particular relates to a mechanical sealing airtightness detection device. Background Art

[0002] Mechanical seal refers to a device that prevents fluid leakage by at least one pair of end faces perpendicular to the axis of rotation, which are kept in close contact and slide relative to each other under the action of fluid pressure and the elastic force of the compensation mechanism and the cooperation of auxiliary seals. Its working principle is to rely on the two end faces of the static ring and the dynamic ring to be pressed tightly, and the two end faces are sealed axially under the action of fluid pressure and the spring pressure of the compensation mechanism, thereby preventing fluid leakage. The airtightness of mechanical seals needs to be tested during the production and manufacturing of mechanical seals.

[0003] An application document with application publication number CN111504558A discloses a pneumatic detection device for mechanical seal air tightness, including a bracket, a lifting support mechanism, a pressing mechanism and a detection cover. A detection cover with an open top is placed on the upper part of the bracket, and water is contained in the detection cover. A vertical lifting support mechanism is provided above the bracket, and a pressing mechanism for longitudinally outputting power is installed on the top of the lifting support mechanism. A tooling base is provided below the pressing mechanism, and both sides of the tooling base are longitudinally slidably installed on the lifting support mechanism. An inflation device is connected to the tooling base through a pipeline, and a sealing ring to be tested is placed on the upper part of the tooling base.

[0004] When testing the air tightness of a mechanical seal, it is necessary to simulate its use environment, install it, inject pressure medium into the mechanical seal, and observe the pressure changes. Based on the pressure changes or the indication of the leak detector, determine whether the mechanical seal has a leakage problem.

[0005] The existing testing equipment is not convenient for installing and disassembling mechanical seals, and the mechanical seal device cannot be quickly adjusted according to actual conditions, which makes the dynamic ring and static ring of the mechanical seal device easily lead to unstable contact due to installation problems during testing, resulting in misjudgment of poor sealing, and cannot adapt to mechanical seal devices of different models and sizes. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a mechanical seal air tightness detection device, aiming to solve the problem that the installation and disassembly of mechanical seals in the prior art are inconvenient, which makes the dynamic ring and static ring of the mechanical seal device easily lead to unstable contact due to installation problems during detection, resulting in the misjudgment of poor sealing.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a mechanical seal airtightness detection equipment, comprising a lower shell, an upper shell and a mechanical seal device, the mechanical seal device comprising a coaxially arranged dynamic seal and a static seal, a fixed plate is fixedly installed inside the lower shell, a mounting plate is slidably installed on the top of the upper shell along the up and down directions, and also includes a fixed clamping device.

[0008] The fixed clamping device includes two fixed disks and a locking assembly. The two fixed disks are coaxial and respectively located above the fixed plate and below the mounting disk. The mechanical sealing device is located between the two fixed disks. The locking assembly includes two threaded sleeves, a transmission rod and a clamping block. The two threaded sleeves are respectively fixedly mounted on the fixed plate and the mounting disk and are coaxial with the fixed disk. The two transmission rods are respectively threadedly sleeved in the two threaded sleeves. One end of the two transmission rods passes through the fixed plate and the mounting disk respectively. The clamping blocks have multiple outer walls surrounding one end of the two transmission rods close to each other. Two connecting rods are provided on the clamping block. One end of the two connecting rods is hinged to the clamping block, and the other end of the two connecting rods is hinged to the threaded sleeve and the outer wall of the transmission rod.

[0009] The locking assembly also includes two adjusting nuts, which are respectively fixedly mounted on the bottom of the fixing plate and the top of the mounting plate, and are respectively threadedly sleeved on the two transmission rods.

[0010] The effect is that by arranging the locking assembly, the inner wall of the mechanical sealing device can be self-centeringly clamped, and by controlling the mounting plate to slide up and down, the two fixed plates can be controlled to approach each other, so that the dynamic ring and the static ring of the mechanical sealing device can be pressed together, and by rotating the transmission rod, the dynamic ring of the mechanical sealing device is driven to rotate relative to the static ring, thereby simulating the working state of the mechanical sealing device to perform an air tightness test on it, so that when the device performs an air tightness test on the mechanical sealing device, the dust between the dynamic ring and the static ring can be eliminated, which causes the unstable contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring when the dynamic ring and the static ring rotate relative to each other, thereby avoiding the unstable contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring when the dynamic ring and the static ring rotate relative to each other, resulting in the misjudgment of poor sealing, and improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0011] The fixing clamping device also includes a connecting shaft, which is located between the two transmission rods and is coaxial with the transmission rods. One end of the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the end of one of the transmission rods, and the other end of the connecting shaft slides through the end of the other transmission rod.

[0012] The effect is that when the static seal and the dynamic seal of the mechanical seal device are self-centering and clamped, the two transmission rods can be made coaxial through the action of the connecting shaft, thereby ensuring that the static seal and the dynamic seal of the mechanical seal device can be coaxial, avoiding misalignment between the static seal and the dynamic seal of the mechanical seal device, which may lead to misjudgment of poor sealing during detection, and improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0013] A mounting sleeve is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing plate, and an annular sleeve is fixedly installed and slidably installed on the bottom of the mounting plate and passes through the top of the upper shell body. The mounting sleeve and the annular sleeve are coaxial with the fixing plate, and a connecting sleeve with one end fixedly connected to the fixing plate is slidably sleeved inside the mounting sleeve and the annular sleeve. Elastic parts are provided inside the two connecting sleeves, one end of the two elastic parts are respectively fixedly connected to the two fixing plates, and the other ends of the two elastic parts are respectively fixedly connected to the fixing plate and the mounting plate.

[0014] The effect is that when the locking assembly performs self-centering clamping on the mechanical sealing device, the two elastic parts can be compressed under the action of the mechanical sealing device. When the locking assembly completes clamping of the mechanical sealing device, the two elastic parts begin to reset and drive the two fixed disks to move toward the mechanical sealing device, ensuring that the dynamic ring and the static ring of the mechanical sealing device can be tightly closed.

[0015] A conical groove is provided on the opposite side of the two fixed disks, a coaxial annular groove is provided in the middle of the conical groove, a coaxial through hole is provided in the middle of the annular groove, and the transmission rod passes through the fixed disk through the through hole and extends into the inner cavity of the mechanical sealing device.

[0016] The effect is that the end portions of the two ends of the mechanical sealing device can contact with the annular groove, and the sealing ring of the mechanical sealing device can contact with the groove wall of the conical groove, thereby ensuring the sealing between the two ends of the mechanical sealing device and the two fixed disks, and avoiding the liquid or gas from entering the mechanical sealing device through the gap between the mechanical sealing device and the fixed disk during detection, thereby causing the occurrence of misjudgment of poor sealing during detection, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0017] A support ring is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer wall of the lower shell, the upper shell is slidably sleeved on the lower shell in the up-down direction, the bottom of the upper shell contacts the support ring, and a driving component for driving the mounting plate to move in the up-down direction is installed on the upper shell.

[0018] The driving assembly includes a limit ring, an inner gear ring, a mounting ring, a screw and a gear. The limit ring is fixedly installed on the top of the upper shell body, the limit ring is sleeved on the outer side of the mounting plate and is coaxial with it, the inner gear ring is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the limit ring and is coaxial with it, the top of the inner gear ring is fixedly installed with a push plate whose top extends out of the limit ring, the mounting ring is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the mounting plate, the axis of the screw is parallel to the axis of the mounting ring and is rotatably installed on the top of the upper shell body, the top of the screw passes through the mounting ring, there are at least two screws and are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the mounting ring, the gear is located at the bottom of the mounting ring and is meshed with the inner gear ring, and the gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the screw.

[0019] The effect is that, by setting up a driving assembly, the mounting ring and the mounting plate can be driven to move in the direction close to the mechanical sealing device, exerting pressure on the contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring, thereby eliminating the situation where dust on the dynamic ring and the static ring causes unstable contact between the two when the dynamic ring and the static ring rotate relative to each other, resulting in misjudgment of poor sealing during detection, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0020] A locking device for fixing the upper shell to the lower shell is installed on the lower shell, and the locking device includes a fixing rod and a fixing column extending in the up-down direction. There are at least two fixing rods and they are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the lower shell. A buckle is provided on the side of the top of the fixing rod close to the upper shell, and the buckle abuts against the top of the upper shell. The axis of the fixing column is perpendicular to the axis of the lower shell. One end of the fixing column slides through the fixing rod and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lower shell. There are at least two fixing columns on the same fixing rod.

[0021] A limit plate is fixedly installed on one end of the fixing column away from the lower shell body, a locking spring is installed between the limit plate and the fixing rod, the locking spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the fixing column, and the two ends of the locking spring are fixedly connected to the fixing rod and the limit plate respectively.

[0022] The effect is that the upper shell can be pressed against the lower shell, avoiding the mutual sliding between the upper shell and the lower shell during the airtightness test of the mechanical seal device, which causes a gap between the static ring and the dynamic ring of the mechanical seal device, thereby causing a misjudgment of a poor seal during the test, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. By setting a locking assembly, the inner wall of the mechanical seal device can be self-centeringly clamped. By controlling the installation plate to slide up and down, the two fixed plates can be controlled to approach each other, so that the dynamic ring and the static ring of the mechanical seal device can be close together. By rotating the transmission rod, the dynamic ring of the mechanical seal device is driven to rotate relative to the static ring, thereby simulating the working state of the mechanical seal device to perform air tightness detection on it. When the device performs air tightness detection on the mechanical seal device, dust between the dynamic ring and the static ring is eliminated, which causes unstable contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring when the dynamic ring and the static ring rotate relative to each other, thereby avoiding the unstable contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring when the dynamic ring and the static ring rotate relative to each other, resulting in misjudgment of poor sealing, and improving the detection accuracy of the device.

[0025] 2. By setting a fixed plate and a locking assembly, when installing and disassembling the mechanical sealing device, it is only necessary to remove the upper shell from the lower shell, and then rotate the transmission rod to complete the installation and disassembly of the mechanical sealing device, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that the airtightness detection device cannot be quickly adapted to the mechanical sealing device, and is inconvenient to install and adjust during detection.

[0069] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present invention is: when the air tightness of the mechanical sealing device 5 is tested, the two fixing rods 31 are first pulled away from the lower shell 11 and the locking springs 34 are compressed. Then the upper base 2 is removed from the lower base 1, and the fixing rods 31 are loosened to reset under the action of the locking springs 34.

At this time, the static seal 52 is located outside the locking assembly 44. Then, the transmission rod 442 on the lower base 1 is rotated to move toward the fixed plate 12 through the threaded connection with the threaded sleeve 441. At this time, the transmission rod 442 drives the connecting rod 445 hinged thereon to move toward the direction of the threaded sleeve 441. At this time, the clamping block 444 moves toward the inner wall of the static seal 52 under the action of the connecting rod 445, so that the three clamping blocks 444 are clamped against the static seal 52. The seal 52 is self-centering and clamped, and then the dynamic seal 51 is placed above the static seal 52, and the dynamic ring 511 on the dynamic seal 51 is in contact with the static ring 521 on the static seal 52; the two fixing rods 31 are pulled away from the lower shell 11, and the locking spring 34 is compressed, the upper base 2 is installed on the lower base 1, and the transmission rod 442 on the upper base 2 is connected to the transmission rod 442 on the lower base 1 through the action of the connecting shaft 45. At this time, the bottom of the upper shell 21 is in contact with the support ring 111 of the outer wall of the lower shell 11, and the fixing rod 31 is loosened so that it is under the action of the locking spring 34. The upper base 2 is fixed to the lower base 1 by the buckle 311 on the fixing rod 31; the transmission rod 442 on the upper base 2 is rotated to move toward the mounting plate 27 through the threaded connection with the threaded sleeve 441, and the transmission rod 442 drives the connecting rod 445 hinged thereon to move toward the threaded sleeve 441. At this time, the clamping block 444 moves toward the inner wall of the dynamic seal 51 under the action of the connecting rod 445, so that the three clamping blocks 444 clamp the dynamic seal 51 in a self-centering manner, and then the inner gear ring 23 is driven to rotate through the push plate 231, and the inner gear ring 23 is screwed with the gear 26. The threaded connection drives the screw 25 to rotate, and the screw 25 drives the mounting ring 24 and the mounting plate 27 to move toward the direction close to the mechanical seal device 5 through the threaded connection with the mounting ring 24. At this time, the fixed plate 41 on the upper base 2 cooperates with the locking assembly 44 and the elastic member 43, so that the dynamic seal 51 and the static seal 52 of the mechanical seal device 5 are respectively in contact with the annular grooves 412 on the two fixed plates 41, and the sealing rings on the outer sides of the dynamic seal 51 and the static seal 52 are in conflict with the groove walls of the conical grooves 411 on the two fixed plates 41, and at the same time, the dynamic ring 511 of the dynamic seal 51 and the static ring 521 of the static seal 52 are in conflict.

[0071] At this time, the closed cavity formed by the lower shell 11 and the upper shell 21 is filled with liquid or gas, and then the pressure change in the closed cavity is monitored, and the external motor is started to drive the transmission rod 442 on the upper base 2 to rotate. Since the clamping block 444 connected to the transmission rod 442 has already conflicted with the dynamic seal 51, as the transmission rod 442 rotates, the transmission rod 442 can no longer slide along the axial direction of the threaded sleeve 441, and can only drive the threaded sleeve 441, the mounting plate 27 and the dynamic seal 51 to rotate. Therefore, the device can simulate the working state of the mechanical sealing device 5 to perform an airtightness test on it.

[0072] When it is monitored that the pressure in the closed cavity becomes smaller, it indicates that leakage occurs at the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 of the mechanical seal device 5. At this time, the push plate 231 drives the inner gear ring 23 to rotate, and the inner gear ring 23 drives the screw 25 to rotate through the threaded connection with the internal gear 26. The screw 25 drives the mounting ring 24 and the mounting plate 27 to move toward the mechanical seal device 5 through the threaded connection with the mounting ring 24, and applies pressure to the contact between the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521, and eliminates the situation that the dust in the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 causes unstable contact between the two when the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 rotate relative to each other. Then, the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 are driven to rotate relative to each other again, and the pressure change in the closed cavity is monitored. When it is monitored that the pressure in the closed cavity becomes smaller, it indicates that there is a manufacturing defect in the mechanical seal device 5. When it is monitored that the pressure in the closed cavity does not change, it indicates that there is no manufacturing defect in the mechanical seal device 5.

[0073] The inner wall of the mechanical seal device 5 can be self-centeringly clamped, and by controlling the mounting plate 27 to slide up and down, the two fixed plates 41 can be controlled to approach each other, so that the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 of the mechanical seal device 5 can be pressed together, and by rotating the transmission rod 442, the dynamic ring 511 of the mechanical seal device 5 is driven to rotate relative to the static ring 521, thereby simulating the working state of the mechanical seal device 5 to perform an air tightness test on it, so that when the device performs an air tightness test on the mechanical seal device 5, dust between the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 can be eliminated, which may cause unstable contact between the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 when the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 rotate relative to each other, thereby avoiding the unstable contact between the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 when the dynamic ring 511 and the static ring 521 rotate relative to each other, resulting in misjudgment of poor sealing, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the device.
