[0002] The shell-breaking cylinder on the electrolytic cell in the electrolytic aluminum workshop is used to open a hole on the hard shell surface of the electrolyte in the electrolytic cell for feeding. The existing shell-breaking cylinder uses a traditional sealing method at the front end. When the shell-breaking cylinder is subjected to lateral force and large impact force during operation, it is particularly easy to be damaged, resulting in a short cylinder life and frequent maintenance. The existing sealing structure is a single sealing ring structure, and the dust ring is also single. In the high temperature and high dust environment of the aluminum plant, fine aluminum oxide dust can easily enter the cylinder through the single dust ring and the single sealing ring, causing the relevant seals in the cylinder to be damaged due to wear, and finally the cylinder function fails.
[0003] After searching, the existing Chinese patent publication number: CN216922694U is a liftable shell-breaking cylinder, which includes a cylinder body, a piston, a piston rod, an exhaust end cylinder cover and a sleeve.

[0027] In this embodiment, a groove is formed on the inner wall of one side of the sealing ring cover 5, which is close to the front end cover 3 of the shell-breaking cylinder, for the shaft kit 2 to extend and be clamped and installed. The scraper ring 8 is arranged in the groove and is located on the peripheral side of the piston rod, ensuring that it is located on the peripheral side of the piston rod and has a certain interval with the shaft kit. The scraper ring faces the side away from the shaft kit to remove impurities and dust that may invade; the scraper ring 8 is located in the sealing ring cover 5 and on the side facing away from the shaft kit 2, and a circular sealing ring 6 is embedded in the outer wall of the scraper ring 8 and in the groove of the sealing ring cover 5 to enhance the sealing performance and prevent dust and liquid from entering; a receiving ring sleeve 10 is provided in the groove near one end of the shaft kit 2 and is sleeved on the peripheral side of the piston rod, and a second sealing ring 11 is embedded in the receiving ring sleeve 10, and the second sealing ring 11 is arranged toward one side of the scraper ring 8 to form a stepped relay sealing structure.
[0028] In this embodiment, a silicone sealing gasket 9 is provided between the front end cover 3 of the shell breaking cylinder and the sealing ring cover 5 and around the circumference of the piston rod to provide double sealing protection.
[0029] In this embodiment, the first sealing ring 1 bears all the pressure and sealing functions under normal working conditions. When the first sealing ring 1 fails, the second sealing ring 11 automatically takes over the pressure and sealing. When the scraper ring 8 fails, a seamless transition is achieved, extending the service life of the cylinder. The second sealing ring 11 takes over the dust prevention task, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and sealing of the inside of the cylinder in a relay manner.
[0030] Working principle:
[0031] The shelling cylinder uses a front end cover sealing structure. During operation, the piston rod reciprocates under the action of gas pressure. The first sealing ring 1 is located inside the front end cover 3 of the shelling cylinder. It firstly plays a role in resisting the leakage of high-pressure gas and at the same time prevents external dust and impurities from entering the cylinder. During the movement of the piston rod, the dust scraper ring 8 can effectively remove dust particles attached to the surface of the piston rod and the inner wall of the cylinder to prevent them from damaging the sealing structure.
[0032] When the first sealing ring 1 is worn or damaged due to long-term operation, the second sealing ring 11 is arranged inside the end of the shaft set 2 close to the sealing ring cover 5, as a relay sealing backup, automatically assuming the pressure and sealing function originally borne by the first sealing ring 1, thus forming a step-by-step relay operation mode, effectively extending the service life of the cylinder;
[0033] In addition, the sealing ring cover 5 is fixed to the front end cover 3 of the shell-breaking cylinder by a locking bolt 7, and the internal groove and the shaft kit 2, the scraper ring 8, the circular seal ring 6, the silicone sealing gasket 9 and the receiving ring sleeve 10 and other multiple sealing structures work together to comprehensively enhance the sealing effect and dustproof ability of the cylinder.
