DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0015] Example: See Figures 1 to 3The utility model provides a double-sealing steam seal structure, including a rotor 1, a steam seal body 4 which is sleeved on the outside of the rotor 1, and a cylinder body 5 which is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the steam seal body 4. The outer wall of the rotor 1 is integrally formed with a plurality of convex rings 2 which are arranged at equal intervals along its axial direction, and an annular groove 3 is enclosed between two adjacent convex rings 2. The inner wall of the steam seal body 4 is integrally formed with a first steam seal long tooth 7, a first steam seal short tooth 8 and a second steam seal short tooth 9 in sequence along the forward direction of the steam flow, and a follower suspended steam seal tooth 10 is installed on the inner wall of the second steam seal short tooth 9 and in front of the second steam seal short tooth 9. The follower suspended steam seal tooth 10 is installed on the steam seal body 4 by means of a snap connection. The first steam seal long tooth 7 and the follower suspended steam seal tooth 10 both extend into the annular groove 3. A first annular gap 6 is enclosed between the outer wall of the steam seal body 4 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 5. A clamping block 22 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the steam seal body 4 and located in front of the first annular gap 6. A clamping groove 23 matching the clamping block 22 is provided on the inner wall of the cylinder body 5.
[0016] A second annular gap 11 is enclosed between the first steam seal short tooth 8 and the second steam seal short tooth 9, and the second annular gap 11 is aligned with the convex ring 2. A steam inlet hole 12 connecting the first annular gap 6 and the second annular gap 11 is provided on the steam seal body 4. There are a plurality of steam inlet holes 12, and the plurality of steam inlet holes 12 are evenly arranged in annular shape about the axis of the steam seal body 4. The first steam seal short tooth 8 and the second steam seal short tooth 9 have the same shape and size. The first steam seal short tooth 8 is a leather cup-shaped structure. The side of the first steam seal short tooth 8 close to the first steam seal long tooth 7 and the axis of the rotor 1 have an angle of 65°, and the side of the first steam seal short tooth 8 away from the first steam seal long tooth 7 and the axis of the rotor 1 have an angle of 55°.
[0017] Steam is diffusive during the flow process. When the steam enters the steam seal body 4, it is divided into two streams at the rear end face of the first steam seal long tooth 7, namely steam flow A and steam flow B. Steam flow A enters the first annular gap 6 along the rear end face of the steam seal body 4, and enters the second annular gap 11 from the steam inlet 12. Steam flow B moves from between the first steam seal long tooth 7 and the rotor 1 toward the second annular gap 11. Since the first steam seal short tooth 8 and the second steam seal short tooth 9 are both inclined toward the first steam seal long tooth 7, steam flow A on the outlet side of the second annular gap 11 creates an impact with steam flow B, greatly reducing the flow velocity and flow rate of steam entering the steam seal body 4, effectively hindering the outflow of steam, and significantly enhancing the sealing performance of the steam seal structure. The first annular gap 6, the steam inlet hole 12 and the second annular gap 11 constitute the first sealing structure of the steam seal body 4. The follower suspended steam seal tooth 10 has follow-up and yielding properties. The gap value between the follower suspended steam seal tooth 10 and the rotor 1 can be very small, forming the second sealing structure of the steam seal body 4. The utility model has a double sealing structure.
[0018] On the basis of the above embodiment, the second steam seal long teeth 13, the third steam seal short teeth 14, the fourth steam seal short teeth 15, the third steam seal long teeth 16, the fifth steam seal short teeth 17, the sixth steam seal short teeth 18, the fourth steam seal long teeth 19, the seventh steam seal short teeth 20 and the eighth steam seal short teeth 21 are fixedly arranged in sequence on the inner wall of the steam seal body 4 and located at the rear side of the second steam seal short teeth 9 along the advancing direction of the steam flow, and the follower suspension steam seal teeth 10 are arranged between the sixth steam seal short teeth 18 and the fourth steam seal long teeth 19. The second steam seal long teeth 13, the third steam seal short teeth 14, the fourth steam seal short teeth 15, the third steam seal long teeth 16, the fifth steam seal short teeth 17, the sixth steam seal short teeth 18, the fourth steam seal long teeth 19, the seventh steam seal short teeth 20 and the eighth steam seal short teeth 21 increase the complexity of the inner wall of the steam seal body 4, so that the inner wall of the steam seal body 4 has multiple labyrinth seal structures, further enhancing the sealing performance of the steam seal body 4.
[0019] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
