The internal thread of the first rotating sleeve 75 is threadedly connected to the external thread of the first push ring 73.

[0031] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A sealing assembly 6 is disposed on the second connecting sleeve 4. The sealing assembly 6 includes a rigid sealing gasket 61, a sealing ring bladder 62, a compression slider 63, a second push ring 64, a second limiting slider 65, a supporting outer ring 66, and a limiting outer ring 67. A sealing ring groove 46 is formed circumferentially on the inner ring wall of the end of the second connecting sleeve 4 away from the metal rotating shaft 1. The rigid sealing gasket 61 is disposed on the inner end wall of the sealing ring groove 46 near the metal rotating shaft 1. The sealing ring bladder 62 is disposed circumferentially in the sealing ring groove 46 and connected to one side of the rigid sealing gasket 61.

The limiting outer ring 67 is coaxially fixedly connected to the side of the supporting outer ring 66 near the metal rotating shaft 1, and the inner ring wall of the limiting outer ring 67 is spaced apart from the outer ring wall of the second connecting sleeve 4.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The second connecting sleeve 4 has several sliding through holes 47 along its radial direction, one end of which is connected to the sealing ring groove 46. A pressing slider 63 is slidably disposed in each sliding through hole 47, one end of which extends into the sealing ring groove 46 and connects to the sealing ring bladder 62. A pressing inclined surface 631 is provided at the end of the pressing slider 63 extending out of the second connecting sleeve 4 away from the sealing ring bladder 62. A second push ring 64 is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the second connecting sleeve 4, and several second limiting sliders 65 are circumferentially connected to the inner ring wall of the second push ring 64. Several second limiting grooves 48 are axially formed on the outer ring wall of the second connecting sleeve 4, and the several second limiting sliders 65 correspond one-to-one with the several second limiting grooves 48 and are slidably connected. The second push ring 64 has a second extrusion cone surface 641 circumferentially formed on the inner ring wall near the extrusion slider 63. The second extrusion cone surface 641 is slidably attached to the extrusion inclined surfaces 631 of a plurality of extrusion sliders 63.

[0033] Reference Figure 5The first rotating sleeve 75, located away from the metal shaft 1, is coaxially fixedly connected to a second rotating sleeve 10. The inner ring wall of the second rotating sleeve 10 has an internal thread, and the outer ring wall of the second push ring 64 has an external thread. The internal thread of the second rotating sleeve 10 is threadedly connected to the external thread of the second push ring 64. The threads on the first rotating sleeve 75 and the threads on the second rotating sleeve 10 have opposite directions of rotation.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 When connecting the metal shaft 1 and the graphite shaft 2, the connecting plug 52 is first passed through the mounting opening 43 into the second connecting sleeve 4, and the end of the connecting plug 52 is embedded in the corresponding mounting groove 21. The mounting groove 21 and the connecting plug 52 achieve a stable connection between the second connecting sleeve 4 and the graphite shaft 2, reducing the possibility of relative rotation between the second connecting sleeve 4 and the graphite shaft 2 during use. The contact pad 11 reduces the possibility of damage and deformation of the inner wall of the mounting groove 21 during contact with the connecting plug 52, and also fills the gap between the two, reducing the possibility of corrosive gas escaping from the gap. One end of the graphite shaft 2 is inserted into the first connecting sleeve 3, and a bolt is passed through the corresponding connecting countersunk hole 32 and connecting screw hole 41 to achieve a detachable connection between the first connecting sleeve 3 and the second connecting sleeve 4.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 A polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sealing gasket 9 is sandwiched between the ends of the metal shaft 1 and the graphite shaft 2, and a contact sealing ring 8 is in close contact with the outer ring wall of the graphite shaft 2. The PTFE sealing gasket 9 and the contact sealing ring 8 achieve a sealing operation at the connection between the metal shaft 1 and the graphite shaft 2, reducing the possibility of corrosive gases leaking from the connection.

[0036] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 After the connection between the first connecting sleeve 3 and the second connecting sleeve 4 is completed, the first rotating sleeve 75 is rotated. Under the drive of the first rotating sleeve 75 and the limiting and guiding action of the first limiting slider 74 and the first limiting groove 45, the first push ring 73 moves towards the metal rotating shaft 1. The first pushing cone surface 731 of the first push ring 73 slides relative to the centering inclined surface of the centering wedge block 72. The centering push rod 71 moves synchronously towards the graphite rotating shaft 2 as it is pushed, so that the graphite rotating shaft 2 can be collinear with the central axis of the second connecting sleeve 4 and the metal rotating shaft 1. This improves the coaxiality of the inner hole of the metal rotating shaft 1 and the inner hole of the graphite rotating shaft 2, and further improves the sealing performance at the alignment connection between the two.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5Simultaneously, the second rotating sleeve 10 rotates synchronously with the first rotating sleeve 75. Since the thread direction of the first rotating sleeve 75 is opposite to that of the second rotating sleeve 10, the second push ring 64 moves synchronously away from the first push ring 73 under the drive of the second rotating sleeve 10 and the limiting action of the second limiting slider 65 and the second limiting groove 48. The second pushing cone surface of the second push ring 64 slides relative to the extrusion inclined surface 631 of the extrusion slider 63, and the extrusion slider 63 moves towards the graphite rotating shaft 2 under the pushing action. The extrusion slider 63 extrudes the sealing ring bladder 62 in the sealing ring groove 46, causing its inner wall to expand and tightly fit against the peripheral wall of the graphite rotating shaft 2, further improving the sealing performance of the connection structure. The hard sealing gasket ring 61 is located on the side of the sealing ring bladder 62 near the connection position, reducing the possibility of corrosion of the sealing ring bladder 62 by corrosive gases.

[0038] The implementation principle of the rotating shaft connection sealing device for in-furnace refining equipment in this embodiment is as follows: When connecting the metal rotating shaft 1 and the graphite rotating shaft 2, the connecting plug 52 is first passed through the installation opening 43 into the second connecting sleeve 4, and the end of the connecting plug 52 is embedded in the corresponding installation groove 21. One end of the graphite rotating shaft 2 is inserted into the first connecting sleeve 3, and bolts are used to connect the first connecting sleeve 3 and the second connecting sleeve 4. The polytetrafluoroethylene sealing gasket 9 is sandwiched between the ends of the metal rotating shaft 1 and the graphite rotating shaft 2, and the contact sealing ring 8 is in close contact with the outer ring wall of the graphite rotating shaft 2.

[0039] Rotating the first rotating sleeve 75 causes the first pushing cone surface 731 to slide relative to the centering inclined surface. Several centering push rods 71 ​​move synchronously towards the graphite shaft 2, ensuring that the graphite shaft 2 is collinear with the central axes of the second connecting sleeve 4 and the metal shaft 1, further improving the sealing performance at their alignment connection. Simultaneously, the second rotating sleeve 10 rotates synchronously, causing the second pushing cone surface to slide relative to the extrusion inclined surface 631. The extrusion slider 63 moves and extrudes the sealing ring bladder 62, causing its inner wall to expand and tightly fit against the graphite shaft 2, thus improving the sealing performance of the connection structure.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
