Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of melt pump cleaning, in particular to a special shaft sealing sleeve for melt pump cleaning. Background Art

[0002] Melt pumps are mainly used for conveying, pressurizing and metering high-temperature and high-viscosity polymer melts, such as extrusion molding of plastics, resins, rubbers and chemical fiber products. They are widely used in industries such as granulation, films, pipes, plates, sheets, man-made fibers, optical fibers and medical plastic catheters. The melt pump shaft seal usually uses a packing seal to seal the melt shaft. The packing seal device usually consists of a stuffing box, a soft packing and a packing gland. The soft packing is an asbestos rope soaked in oil or coated with graphite or a high-temperature resistant carbon fiber. It is placed between the stuffing box and the pump shaft, and the gland is pressed to deform it to achieve sealing. Since the melt pump shaft seal uses a packing seal and the pumped medium is mainly a high-temperature and high-viscosity polymer, the purpose of preventing the medium from leaking from the shaft seal during operation is achieved;

[0003] When the melt shaft needs to be cleaned, the corresponding solvent is usually used. On the production line, it is cleaned by solvent circulation or solvent immersion. Since most solvents have strong dissolving power and penetration, or are toxic, harmful, flammable and explosive liquids, there is a possibility of solvent leakage at the shaft seal of the packing seal on the melt pump when cleaning the melt pump with solvent, which poses a major safety hazard.

[0004] Therefore, the utility model provides a special shaft seal sleeve for cleaning a melt pump, which can prevent solvent from leaking from the shaft seal. Utility Model Content

[0008] The shaft seal sleeve assembly includes a shaft seal tube sleeved on the top of the pump shaft, and a gland flange arranged at the front end of the shaft seal tube. After the shaft seal tube is sleeved on the top of the pump shaft, the gland flange is attached to the top of the packing tube and fixed to the packing tube by screws.

[0009] A closed space is formed between the shaft sealing tube, the outer wall of the pump shaft and the stuffing passage in the stuffing cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the shaft sealing tube does not contact and protect the outer wall of the pump shaft and the length of the shaft sealing tube extends beyond the top end of the pump shaft. The shaft sealing tube is sleeved on the outside of the pump shaft and the diameter and length of the shaft sealing tube are larger than the pump shaft, thereby achieving the purpose of sealing and protecting the shaft sealing tube on the outside of the pump shaft without affecting the operation of the pump shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the shaft sealing tube and the gland flange are welded as one body, and the diameter of the shaft sealing tube is consistent with the diameter of the stuffing cylinder. The shaft sealing tube and the gland flange are welded as one body, which improves the sealing performance of the connection between the shaft sealing tube and the stuffing cylinder.

[0012] Furthermore, a sealing gasket is provided between the gland flange and the packing cylinder, and the sealing gasket is used to cooperate and seal the gland flange and the packing cylinder. The sealing gasket is located on the side where the packing cylinder and the gland flange are connected. When the gland flange is screwed and fixed to the screw holes on the packing cylinder by screws, the gland flange gasket is pressed tightly between the gland flange and the packing cylinder to maintain the sealing between the shaft seal tube and the packing cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, the gland flange and the shaft seal tube are respectively made of 304 stainless steel structure, and the top of the shaft seal tube is provided with a 304 stainless steel disc sealed and fixed to the top of the shaft seal tube. The gland flange and the shaft seal tube of the 304 stainless steel structure are prevented from rusting during use with the melt pump, which may affect the use of the melt pump.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
