[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 22 The diagram illustrates an end-sealing structure for a rotary piston pneumatic motor, comprising: a cylinder housing, a main shaft, and a vane rotor 16. The main shaft is rotatably mounted within the cylinder housing. The main shaft includes: an exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6, an eccentric main shaft 7, and a sleeve 18. The front section of the eccentric main shaft 7 has an eccentric shaft portion, and the rear end of the exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6 is connected to the front end of the eccentric main shaft 7. The front section of the exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6 and the rear section of the eccentric main shaft 7 are located on the same axis. The vane rotor 16 is disposed within the cylinder housing and sleeved on the eccentric shaft portion via the sleeve 18. The vane rotor 16 rotates around the axis of the eccentric shaft portion.
[0033] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the cylinder housing includes: a front end cover 2, a chamber cylinder 1, and a rear end cover 3. The front end of the chamber cylinder 1 is connected to the front end cover 2, and the rear end of the chamber cylinder 1 is connected to the rear end cover 3. Multiple housing air inlets 101 are provided along the circumference of the chamber cylinder 1, and multiple housing exhaust ports 102 are provided on the front end cover 2. The blade rotor 16 is located inside the chamber cylinder 1 and between the front end cover 2 and the rear end cover 3. A piston exhaust groove 162 is provided on the front end face of the blade rotor 16, and a piston exhaust port 161 is provided on the outer wall of the blade rotor 16. The multiple housing air inlets 101 are used to intake air and drive the blade rotor 16 to rotate, thereby driving the main shaft to rotate. The multiple housing exhaust ports 102 are used to exhaust air.
[0034] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the blade rotor body 16 with two petals has two piston exhaust grooves 162 on its front side, and two piston exhaust ports 161 on its outer wall. Each piston exhaust port 161 communicates with a piston exhaust groove 162 and is located at the end edge of the piston exhaust groove 162 in a clockwise direction; Figure 11 As shown;
[0035] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the positional relationship between the inner wall edge of the chamber cylinder 1 and the blade rotor 16 and the inner wall of the chamber cylinder 1 is as follows: Figure 16 and Figure 17 As shown, the blade rotor body 16 is a rotating piston, which cooperates with the cylinder housing. After the air is unidirectionally introduced through the housing air inlet 101, it pushes the blade rotor body 16 to rotate around the front shaft of the eccentric main shaft 7. When the blade rotor body 16 rotates a certain angle, the gas enters the piston exhaust groove 162 through the piston exhaust port 161, and then is discharged through the housing exhaust port 102.
[0036] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the inner edge of the end face of the chamber cylinder 1 is petal-shaped, the end face of the blade rotor 16 is petal-shaped, and the number of petals of the blade rotor 16 is one less than the number of petals of the chamber cylinder 1.
[0037] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, it further includes: a gear ring drive structure, which includes: a large gear ring 8 and a gear shaft 9, the gear shaft 9 being connected to the blade rotor body 16 by a key, the large gear ring 8 being installed inside the front end cover 2, and the large gear ring 8 and the gear shaft 9 meshing with each other.
[0038] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, since the blade rotor 16 is rotatably mounted on the front section of the eccentric main shaft 1 via the sleeve 18, and the exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6 and the front end cover 2 are meshed and driven by a gear ring transmission structure, with the gear shaft 9 inserted into the front end of the blade rotor 16 and rotating synchronously, the blade rotor 16 is driven to rotate around the front section of the eccentric main shaft 1. The main shaft rotates around the axes of its front and rear ends. Under the action of the gear ring transmission structure, the two rotate in opposite directions. During the rotation of the blade rotor 16, the axial position of the front section of the eccentric main shaft 1 changes continuously, and under the action of the gear ring transmission structure, the main shaft rotates, thereby realizing the function of a rotary piston pneumatic motor. The cycloidal equation of the blade rotor 16 within the cylinder housing is referenced... Figure 18 As shown.
[0039] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the cylinder housing further includes a one-way intake valve, wherein each housing intake port 101 is equipped with a one-way intake valve for communicating with an air passage, and the one-way intake valve is used to enable one-way air intake toward the interior of the chamber cylinder 1.
[0040] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the rear end of the exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6 and the front end of the eccentric main shaft 7 are connected by a key or pin.
[0041] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, it further includes: a spring radial seal 12, with multiple spring radial seals 12 installed at equal intervals along the inner wall of the chamber cylinder 1. This structure is superior to the traditional pneumatic motor with the sealing strip mounted on the rotating piston. Specifically, the spring radial seal 12 does not need to rotate with the blade rotor 16, and there is no centrifugal force, which effectively reduces the wear on the chamber cylinder 1. The spring radial seal 12 contains a compression spring to ensure sealing performance.
[0042] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the front section of the exhaust-side eccentric shaft 6 is rotatably mounted in the front end cover 2 via at least one rolling bearing 10; the rear section of the eccentric main shaft 7 is rotatably mounted on the rear end cover 3 via at least one rolling bearing 20.
[0043] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the petal-shaped end face of the blade rotor body 16 has each petal in a smoothly transitioning arc shape that protrudes outward; the number of petals can be 2 to 9.
[0044] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation methods and protection scope of the present invention.

Both the corrugated spring and the sealing ring are matched with the spring limiting groove 163. See the sealing ring for details. Figure 21 As shown, the thickness is preferably 1.2mm. One side of the sealing ring abuts against the corrugated spring at the bottom of the spring limiting groove 163, and the other side of the sealing ring abuts against the front end cover 2 or the rear end cover 3; thus achieving a seal between the cylinder housing and the blade rotor body 16.
[0048] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the spring radial seal 12 is composed of a sealing strip and a corrugated spring. The corrugated spring is located at the bottom of the strip-shaped limiting groove, and the corrugated spring pushes the sealing strip against the outer wall of the blade rotor body 16.
