[0002] The spindle is the shaft that drives the workpiece or tool to rotate on the machine tool. It is mainly used to support the transmission parts and transmit the rotational motion and torque. In the prior art, high-speed spindles are widely used in precision machining. The dust and water resistance requirements of the shaft end are constantly increasing. Due to its structural characteristics, the contact seal generates significant heat, which affects the stability of the spindle. Summary of the invention

[0003] The utility model aims to solve the above technical problems and provide a contact seal structure for a grinding machine spindle, which has a simple structure and has been proven to be able to effectively reduce the temperature of the contact seal, effectively extend the service life of the contact seal, and extend its dustproof and waterproof effects.

[0004] In order to achieve the above technical objectives and meet the above technical requirements, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a contact sealing structure for a grinding machine spindle, including a shaft, which is connected to a casing through a bearing, and is characterized in that: a front cover is provided on one side of the casing, a front cover inner ring is provided on one side of the front cover, a skeleton oil seal is provided in the front cover inner ring, an air nozzle is provided on the front cover, a gas channel is provided in the front cover, an annular cavity is provided between the front cover inner ring and the front cover, and a plurality of air hole groups are evenly distributed on the front cover inner ring, and the gas flows to the skeleton oil seal through the air nozzle, the gas channel in the front cover, the annular cavity, and the air hole group, and is discharged through the cooling channel between the shaft and the front cover inner ring, thereby taking out heat and grinding wheel chips.

[0005] Preferably, the bearing is locked by a bearing locking nut, and a bearing washer is arranged between the bearing and the bearing locking nut.

[0006] Preferably, the pore group includes radial pores and axial pores, and the radial pores are communicated with the axial pores.

[0007] Preferably, the pressure of the gas is set to 0.4-0.5 MPa.

[0008] Preferably, the skeleton oil seal contacts the shaft to form a contact sealing structure.

[0009] Working principle: The shaft and skeleton oil seal cooperate to form a contact seal. Due to the relative movement, a large amount of heat is generated. At this time, air is ventilated through the air nozzle of the front cover and blown to the end face of the skeleton oil seal through the radial air outlet holes evenly distributed on the inner ring, and discharged from the cooling channel at the shaft end, thereby taking away a large amount of heat and grinding wheel chips and reducing the temperature of the contact seal.

[0010] Compared with the traditional structure, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the structure is simple, and it is easy to install and process. The cooling airflow blows toward the skeleton oil seal through the gas channel, which can effectively cool the sealing structure, extend the service life of the seal, has a good dustproof sealing effect, and improves the stability of the spindle operation.
