In addition, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples.
[0031] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 5 to describe the high-pressure bearing structure provided by the present invention.
[0032] Refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the high-pressure bearing structure provided by the embodiments of the present invention includes: a housing 100 and a rotating shaft 200. A high-pressure inner cavity 110 is formed in the housing 100. An inlet 120 and an outlet 130 are provided on the housing 100. Both the inlet 120 and the outlet 130 are communicated with the high-pressure inner cavity 110. The rotating shaft 200 passes through the housing 100, and sealing assemblies 300 are provided between both ends of the rotating shaft 200 and the housing 100.
[0033] The sealing assembly 300 includes a sealing end cover 310 and a floating guide sleeve 320. The sealing end cover 310 is connected to the housing 100. The floating guide sleeve 320 includes a main body portion 321. A sealing flange 322 is provided on the main body portion 321. The rotating shaft 200 passes through the main body portion 321.
[0034] A first dynamic sealing mechanism 330 is provided between the main body portion 321 and the rotating shaft 200. The first dynamic sealing mechanism 330 includes a dynamic sealing ring 331 and a static sealing ring 332. The dynamic sealing ring 331 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 200, and the static sealing ring 332 is provided on the main body portion 321. The dynamic sealing ring 331 and the static sealing ring 332 are in sealing cooperation. A second dynamic sealing mechanism 340 is provided between the sealing convex edge 322 and the sealing end cover 310. The second dynamic sealing mechanism 340 includes a sealing groove 341 and a plurality of flexible balls 342. The sealing groove 341 is located between the sealing convex edge 322 and the sealing end cover 310, and the plurality of flexible balls 342 are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction in the sealing groove 341.
[0035] For the high-pressure bearing structure provided by the present invention, by arranging the sealing assembly 300 at both ends of the rotating shaft 200, when the rotating shaft 200 works, the first dynamic sealing mechanism 330 provided between the main body portion 321 and the rotating shaft 200 can achieve dynamic sealing through the sealing cooperation between the dynamic sealing ring 331 and the static sealing ring 332. At the same time, the second dynamic sealing mechanism 340 provided between the sealing convex edge 322 and the sealing end cover 310 can achieve dynamic sealing through the plurality of flexible balls 342 arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction in the sealing groove 341, so that the high-pressure bearing structure can meet the sealing requirements under high-pressure environment, high-speed rotation of the rotating shaft 200 and dynamic load conditions, and has a simple and compact structure and is easy to maintain.
[0036] Specifically, when the rotating shaft 200 works, the dynamic sealing ring 331 can rotate synchronously with it, while the static sealing ring 332 does not rotate. The dynamic sealing ring 331 and the static sealing ring 332 always maintain sealing cooperation, and can seal the gap between the floating guide sleeve 320 (main body portion 321) and the rotating shaft 200. Moreover, this mechanism is an adaptive structure design and can compensate for the minute deformation caused by temperature change or mechanical vibration. At the same time, the flexible balls 342 can roll radially along with the angular offset or vertical displacement of the rotating shaft 200 caused by loading, and can also compensate for axial deformation, dynamically fit the end faces of the sealing end cover 310 and the sealing convex edge 322, and offset the displacement difference through elastic deformation to seal the gap between the floating guide sleeve 320 (sealing convex edge 322) and the sealing end cover 310.
[0037] The sealing assembly 300 includes a sealing end cover 310 and a floating guide sleeve 320. The sealing end cover 310 is connected to the housing 100, and the connection position is sealed by a sealing ring. The floating guide sleeve 320 is used to provide stable guidance for the rotating shaft 200 to reduce the negative impact on the sealing of the high-pressure inner cavity 110 caused by the offset of the rotating shaft 200.
[0038] Preferably, the floating guide sleeve 320 can be made of silicon carbide or ceramic-based composite materials, which have excellent high-pressure resistance and wear resistance, can maintain a long service life in extreme working environments, reduce wear and delay maintenance frequency, and are suitable for applications under high load and high pressure conditions. The dynamic seal ring 331 can be made of cemented carbide material (such as 13Cr), which has excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, compressive strength and high-temperature stability, can effectively extend the service life of the seal ring, reduce friction and wear, and improve the sealing performance, and is particularly suitable for applications in high pressure, high temperature and harsh environments. The static seal ring 332 can be made of high-pressure resistant composite flexible material (such as aramid fiber reinforced polymer composite material), which has excellent high-pressure resistance, high-temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, good elasticity and sealing performance, can maintain a stable sealing effect under high pressure environment, adapt to various temperature changes and corrosive media, ensure the sealing and long-term reliability of the equipment, reduce leakage risks and extend service life. The flexible ball 342 can be made of flexible non-metallic materials such as highly elastic rubber or polyurethane materials, which have excellent impact resistance, wear resistance, aging resistance and strong recovery force, so that it can maintain good performance under dynamic and static loads. The elastic modulus of the flexible ball 342 is 5Mpa to 15Mpa, which can not only roll but also compensate for axial deformation, and is suitable for sealing or supporting structures that bear higher loads. At the same time, it can adapt to larger deformations and provide efficient buffering and sealing effects.
[0039] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a groove is provided at the outer end of the main body 321, a portion of the dynamic sealing ring 331 is located in the groove, and the static sealing ring 332 is provided on the bottom wall of the groove.
[0040] By providing a groove at the outer end of the main body 321, it is possible to provide installation space for the dynamic seal ring 331 and the static seal ring 332, and reduce the space occupied by the dynamic seal ring 331 and the static seal ring 332, while satisfying the sealing cooperation of the dynamic seal ring 331 and the static seal ring 332, and facilitate assembly. At the same time, the static seal ring 332 is arranged on the bottom wall of the groove, and is made of a high-pressure resistant composite flexible material, which can compensate for the axial movement of the floating guide sleeve 320.
[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a limiting ring 343 is provided on the sealing end cover 310 . The limiting ring 343 is located in the sealing groove 341 . The limiting ring 343 is used to radially limit the flexible ball 342 .
[0042] By arranging a limiting ring 343 on the sealing end cover 310 , the flexible ball 342 can be radially limited to prevent it from escaping from the sealing groove 341 , thereby ensuring the stability of the flexible ball 342 during operation.
[0043] Specifically, the limit ring 343 includes a connecting portion and a limiting portion that are vertically connected, and its cross-section is L-shaped. The connecting portion is connected to the sealing end cover 310, and the limiting portion is located radially outside the flexible ball 342 to perform radial limiting on it.
[0044] See Figures 1 to 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the high-pressure bearing structure further includes a bushing 400. The bushing 400 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 200, and a limiting groove is provided on the bushing 400 along the circumferential direction. The dynamic sealing ring 331 is arranged in the limiting groove.
[0045] By providing the bushing 400, the load of the rotating shaft 200 can be effectively shared, wear can be reduced, and better compressive resistance can be provided. The limiting groove provided on the bushing 400 along the circumferential direction can limit and fix the dynamic sealing ring 331 to ensure the stability of the dynamic sealing ring 331 when the rotating shaft 200 is working.
[0046] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a first gap 350 is provided axially between the end face of the sealing convex edge 322 and the end cover, a second gap 360 is provided radially between the outer periphery of the sealing convex edge 322 and the end cover, and a floating compensation mechanism 500 is provided between the main body portion 321 and the end cover. The floating compensation mechanism 500 is used to compensate for the radial and axial floating of the floating guide sleeve 320.
[0047] By providing a first gap 350 axially between the end face of the sealing convex edge 322 and the end cover and a second gap 360 radially between the outer periphery of the sealing convex edge 322 and the end cover, the axial and radial floating of the rotating shaft 200 during operation under high pressure, high-speed rotation, and dynamic load conditions can be effectively compensated. At the same time, a floating compensation mechanism 500 is provided between the main body portion 321 and the end cover. This mechanism can compensate for the radial and axial floating of the floating guide sleeve 320. When the high-pressure bearing structure undergoes minor axial or radial changes during operation, the floating compensation mechanism 500 can automatically adjust its position to ensure that the first dynamic sealing mechanism 330 and the second dynamic sealing mechanism 340 are always in a stable sealing state, thereby improving the reliability of the seal.
[0048] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the floating compensation mechanism 500 includes an annular fixed seat 510, a first flexible compensation ring 520, and a second flexible compensation ring 530. The annular fixed seat 510 is circumferentially arranged on the main body portion 321. On both sides of the annular fixed seat 510 along the axial direction, a first annular inclined surface 511 and a second annular inclined surface 512 are symmetrically provided. The diameters of the first annular inclined surface 511 and the second annular inclined surface 512 gradually decrease in the direction from the inside to the outside. The first flexible compensation ring 520 is sleeved on the first annular inclined surface 511, and the second flexible compensation ring 530 is sleeved on the second annular inclined surface 512. Both the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 are in contact with the end cover.
[0049] By configuring the floating compensation mechanism 500 in the above form, the flexible characteristics of the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 can be utilized, in conjunction with the first annular inclined surface 511 and the second annular inclined surface 512 on the annular fixed seat 510, to effectively compensate for the radial and axial floating of the floating guide sleeve 320 in the high-pressure bearing structure.
[0050] Specifically, due to the design of the gradually decreasing first annular inclined surface 511 and second annular inclined surface 512, the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 can be oriented towards the sealing end cover 310 in both the inward and outward directions. When the floating guide sleeve 320 undergoes radial and axial floating towards the outside of the housing 100, the first flexible compensation ring 520 sleeved on the first annular inclined surface 511 can effectively compensate for the radial and axial floating of the floating guide sleeve 320. Similarly, when the floating guide sleeve 320 undergoes radial and axial floating towards the inside of the housing 100, the first flexible compensation ring 520 sleeved on the first annular inclined surface 511 can effectively compensate for the radial and axial floating of the floating guide sleeve 320.
[0051] The first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 can be made of a modified rubber material, which has high elasticity and a long service life. Among them, high elasticity specifically means that the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 have the ability to quickly return to their original state after the external force is removed.
[0052] It should be noted that the above-mentioned "direction from the inside to the outside" refers to Figure 5 the direction indicated by the arrow in
[0053] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the floating compensation mechanism 500 further includes an annular abutting groove 540 which is provided on the side of the end cover facing the main body portion 321 along the circumferential direction. First annular abutting surfaces 541 and second annular abutting surfaces 542 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the annular abutting groove 540 along the axial direction. The diameters of the first annular abutting surfaces 541 and the second annular abutting surfaces 542 gradually increase in the direction from the inside to the outside. The first flexible compensation ring 520 abuts against the first annular abutting surface 541, and the second flexible compensation ring 530 abuts against the second annular abutting surface 542.
[0054] By adding the annular abutting groove 540 on the sealing end cover 310, the first annular abutting surface 541 and the second annular abutting surface 542 can be respectively and stably abutted and cooperated with the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530. With the design that the diameters of the first annular abutting surface 541 and the second annular abutting surface 542 gradually increase from the inside to the outside, it can ensure that the floating guide sleeve 320 can better adapt to the floating changes during the working process, maintain a better contact pressure, and at the same time improve the response speed and accuracy of the compensation for the floating guide sleeve 320, ensuring that the floating guide sleeve 320 can be adjusted quickly and accurately during the floating compensation process to cope with the floating caused by external factors such as temperature, pressure and dynamic load of the rotating shaft 200.
[0055] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the thicknesses of the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 gradually increase in the direction from the inside to the outside.
[0056] By setting the thicknesses of the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 to gradually increase in the direction from the inside to the outside, the dynamic compensation performance of the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 for the floating guide sleeve 320 can be optimized.
[0057] Specifically, since the thicknesses of the first flexible compensation ring 520 and the second flexible compensation ring 530 gradually increase in the direction from the inside to the outside, with the gradual increase of the thickness, the outer part of the flexible compensation ring has greater deformation ability and elasticity, and can provide a greater compensation amount on the outside, so as to effectively cope with greater displacement or floating. At the same time, this structure can significantly improve the stability of the floating guide sleeve 320 when floating.
[0058] It should be noted that the above-mentioned "direction from the inside to the outside" refers to the direction of the arrow shown in Figure 5 the figure.
[0059] See Figure 1As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the high-pressure bearing structure further includes a bearing housing 600, a bushing 700, and a water-lubricated bearing shoe 800. The bearing housing 600 is disposed within the housing 100. The bushing 700 is sleeved on the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800, and the bushing 700 is embedded within the bearing housing 600. The rotating shaft 200 passes through the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800 to form a water film between the rotating shaft 200 and the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800 after water is supplied in the high-pressure inner cavity 110.
[0060] By providing the bearing housing 600, the bushing 700, and the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800, the high-pressure bearing structure can effectively achieve bearing lubrication and stable operation under high-pressure environments.
[0061] Specifically, the bearing housing 600 is fixed within the housing 100 to provide stable support and positioning functions. The bushing 700 is sleeved within the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800, which can reduce the direct friction between the rotating shaft 200 and the water-lubricated bearing shoe 800, thereby extending the service life of the bearing. The water-lubricated bearing shoe 800, on the other hand, plays a lubricating role by forming a water film with the rotating shaft 200, reducing friction and heat accumulation.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features.
