Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a hydraulic torque converter for a loader, in particular to an end face sealing structure of a hydraulic torque converter for a loader. Background Art
[0002] The hydraulic torque converter of the loader is one of the key components of the loader's power transmission. It includes a cover wheel, a pump wheel, a turbine and a guide wheel. The hydraulic torque converter is connected to the engine. It can automatically adjust the output torque and speed, so that the loader can automatically change the speed and traction according to the road conditions and the size of the resistance to adapt to the ever-changing various working conditions. Its working principle is: when the engine is started, the crankshaft drives the flywheel to rotate, and the flywheel drives the pump wheel to rotate. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation causes the working fluid between the pump wheel blades to be thrown out from the inner edge to the outer edge along the blade surface. This part of the thrown working fluid impacts the turbine blades and drives the turbine to rotate. The direction of the torque converter oil will change after it flows from the turbine to the guide wheel. When the oil flows back to the pump wheel, its flow direction is the same as the direction of the pump wheel movement, forming a closed-loop oil circuit transmission. After the operation is engaged, the maximum speed from the start to the highest gear can be automatically and continuously changed, with the characteristics of smooth starting and good acceleration performance. When encountering a slope or road obstacle during driving, it can automatically slow down to increase traction and travel at any speed and cross the obstacle without changing gears. When the external resistance decreases, it can quickly and automatically increase the speed to improve the working efficiency. When shoveling materials, it can cut into the pile at a higher speed and automatically slow down to increase the wheel traction as the resistance increases to ensure cutting. Due to the complex working conditions of the torque converter, the sealing of its internal structure is highly required.
[0003] The end face sealing structure of the existing loader torque converter is generally adopted Figure 1 The structure is that a rectangular groove for installing an O-ring 4 is provided on the mating end faces of the cover wheel 3 and the pump wheel 5, and a limit stop boss is provided on the outer circle of the cover wheel 3. The outer circle limit stop is matched with the outer circle of the pump wheel 5 to ensure that the two are coaxial, and then the cover wheel 3 and the pump wheel 5 are locked by bolts 6, and the rubber O-ring 4 installed on the mating end face of the cover wheel 3 is squeezed to seal the mating surface of the cover wheel 3 and the pump wheel 5. The defects of this end face sealing structure are: this sealing structure has high requirements on the flatness and roughness of the end faces of the cover wheel 3 and the pump wheel 5, and when the torque converter rotates at high speed, the sealing performance of the O-ring 4 will be reduced, resulting in excessive oil throwing and poor sealing effect, which reduces the overall transmission efficiency of the hydraulic torque converter. Summary of the invention
