Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mechanical seals, and in particular to a double-end-face mechanical seal structure. Background Art

[0002] As a key sealing component in industrial equipment, mechanical seals are widely used in pumps, mixers, compressors and other equipment. Their main function is to solve the problem of medium leakage between rotating shafts and stationary parts. In the industrial field, especially in complex working conditions of handling high temperature, high pressure and corrosive media, the performance of mechanical seals not only directly affects the operating stability of the equipment, but also has an important impact on the safety, efficiency and economic benefits of industrial production. For example, in industries such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and food processing, if the seal fails, it may not only lead to equipment downtime and high maintenance costs, but also cause environmental pollution or safety accidents.

[0003] However, traditional mechanical seals have many problems in practical applications, among which high maintenance costs and component design defects are the most prominent. The flange seat in the traditional mechanical seal, as a fixing and supporting component in the sealing structure, usually adopts an integrated design and is tightly connected to other sealing components. This design has a certain stability during operation, but when the seal is damaged and needs to be replaced, the flange seat and related components must be replaced as a whole. This non-modular design method not only increases the complexity of maintenance, but also greatly increases the maintenance costs. Especially under conditions of frequent replacement, the overall replacement of the flange seat poses a great challenge to the economic efficiency of equipment operation. In addition, the disassembly and assembly process of the integrated flange seat design is complicated, and often requires professional tools and personnel support, which further increases equipment downtime and labor costs.

[0004] Therefore, the traditional mechanical seal design is particularly insufficient when facing high-frequency maintenance or harsh environments, which has prompted the industry to have a strong demand for mechanical seal solutions with modular design, reduced maintenance costs and improved adaptability to working conditions. Therefore, the present invention proposes a double-end mechanical seal structure. Summary of the invention

[0008] A pump ring is clamped on the part corresponding to the cover ring in the middle part of the outer circumference of the sleeve, and the side surface of the pump ring is connected to the second sealing ring mounted on the sleeve; a compression ring is embedded in the flange seat next to the cover ring, and an annular spring fixer is movably embedded in the flange seat on the outside of the compression ring, and a plurality of springs are embedded on the side of the spring fixer close to the transmission ring, and the ends of all the springs are connected to the end face of one side of the third elastic ring, and a positioning convex ring protruding inwardly for positioning the third elastic ring is provided in the flange seat; a second matching ring driven by the spring fixer is movably embedded in the compression ring, and a second sealing ring is embedded in the end face of the pump ring close to the second matching ring, and the spring drives the spring fixer and the second matching ring to press the second sealing ring.

[0023] A pump ring 9 is clamped at the part corresponding to the cover ring 4 in the middle part of the outer periphery of the sleeve 2, and the side of the pump ring 9 is connected to the second sealing ring 12 sleeved on the sleeve 4; a compression ring 14 is embedded in the flange seat 13 next to the cover ring, and an annular spring retainer 17 is movably embedded in the flange seat 13 on the outside of the compression ring 14, and a plurality of springs 18 are embedded on the side of the spring retainer 17 close to the transmission ring 15, and the ends of all the springs 18 are connected to the end face of one side of the third elastic ring 16, and a positioning convex ring protruding inwardly for positioning the third elastic ring 16 is provided in the flange seat 13; a second matching ring 11 driven by the spring retainer 17 is movably embedded in the compression ring 14, and a second sealing ring 12 is embedded in the end face of the pump ring 9 close to the second matching ring 11, and the spring 18 drives the spring retainer 17 and the second matching ring 11 to press the second sealing ring 12.

[0024] The sleeve 2 is connected to the rotating shaft 1 through a driving pin 19. A gasket 20 is provided at one end of the middle of the cover ring 4, and the gasket 20 and the cover ring 4, and the transmission ring 15 and the sleeve 2 are connected by screws. O-rings are provided between the sleeve 2 and the rotating shaft 1, between the sleeve 2 and the first sealing ring 5, between the sleeve 2 and the pump ring 9, between the first matching ring 3 and the cover ring 4, between the pump ring 9 and the second sealing ring 12, between the cover ring 4 and the flange seat 13, and between the cover ring 4 and the second matching ring 11.

[0025] In this embodiment, the core function of the double-end mechanical seal structure is to achieve the sealing of the fluid medium and ensure the reliability of the seal and the stability of the equipment operation under harsh working conditions. With respect to the above double-end mechanical seal structure, its principle is analyzed from the following key aspects:

[0026] 1. Sealing principle: Mechanical seals form an efficient sealing surface between the dynamic and static rings through precise matching, and are supported by auxiliary sealing elements (such as O-rings and springs) to avoid leakage. The double-end design here means that sealing components are set at both ends of the equipment, providing higher sealing performance.

[0027] Pairing of the dynamic ring and the static ring: The first pairing ring 3 and the second pairing ring 11 serve as the sealing dynamic ring and the static ring, and realize the main seal through surface contact. The wave spring 8 and the spring 18 provide a stable clamping force for the dynamic ring to ensure that the sealing contact between the dynamic ring and the static ring does not loosen due to running deviation or wear.

[0028] Multi-stage sealing and auxiliary sealing: Multiple O-rings are used for static sealing between sealing surfaces to effectively prevent leakage. The first sealing ring 5 and the second sealing ring 12 at the dynamic ring and pump ring 9 further improve the sealing effect and adapt to high temperature and high pressure environments.

[0029] 2. Elastic design and enhanced adaptability: The spring elements (including the wave spring 8 and the ordinary spring 18) play the role of automatic compensation and enhanced adaptability in the structure.

[0030] Function of the wave spring: The wave spring 8 is installed between the second elastic ring 7 and the cover ring 4, which can alleviate the sealing failure problem caused by temperature changes or medium pressure fluctuations. At the same time, the nonlinear characteristics of the wave spring 8 can provide a more stable pressing force.

[0031] External spring design: The spring 18 provides a force through the spring retainer 17 to keep the second matching ring 11 in contact with the pump ring 9, thereby ensuring the contact force between the sealing rings. This external design effectively reduces the risk of corrosion of the spring exposed to the medium and improves the adaptability of the system.

[0032] 3. Modular design and maintenance convenience: The separate design of the cover ring 4 and the flange seat 13 greatly simplifies the maintenance and replacement of the sealing system.

[0033] Separate flange seat design: A pump ring 9 is provided in the middle of the cover ring 4, and the seal can be replaced by simple disassembly without replacing the flange seat as a whole, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0034] 4. Adaptability of sealing structure: The double-end mechanical seal is designed to be adaptable to high temperature, high pressure and particle-containing media conditions:

[0035] Multiple protections of O-rings and multiple sealing rings: O-rings at various locations are combined with the first sealing ring 5 and the second sealing ring 12 to effectively reduce leakage caused by particle wear or thermal expansion.

[0036] Wave spring and spring retainer: For media containing particles, the wave spring can tolerate a certain amount of particle accumulation, while the external spring avoids direct contact with the particles, improving durability.

[0037] Modular separation design: When the seal fails in a complex environment, it only needs to replace individual components to restore normal use, reducing operating costs.

[0038] In summary, with the help of the above technical solutions of the present invention, through double-end mechanical seals and modular design, the effect of high-efficiency sealing performance and economy is achieved. The unique flange seat design eliminates the need to replace the flange seat as a whole when replacing the seal, significantly reducing maintenance costs; the wave spring and external spring design enhance the adaptability of the seal under harsh working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure and medium containing particles, effectively avoiding clogging and corrosion problems. At the same time, the combination of multi-stage sealing structure and O-ring greatly improves the reliability and service life of the seal, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment in complex environments, and providing an efficient, durable and economical solution for industrial applications.
