[0002] Mechanical seal is a high-precision, high-performance shaft sealing device, which is mainly used to solve the sealing problem between the rotating shaft and the housing to prevent the leakage of the transported or processed liquid, gas or slurry material from the shaft seal, and also to prevent external impurities from entering the machine.

[0003] Although some existing mechanical seal structures can effectively prevent leakage of fluid media to a certain extent, there are some urgent problems to be solved in practical applications. For example, mechanical seal structures often contain multiple precision parts, such as complex spring systems, multi-layer auxiliary seals, and precisely machined dynamic and static ring components, which not only increase the difficulty and cost of manufacturing, but also may lead to cumbersome installation and debugging processes, inconvenience in maintenance and replacement. In addition, complex structures may cause the sealing performance to decline during long-term operation due to factors such as uneven wear of various components and thermal expansion, affecting the overall work efficiency and operation stability of the equipment. Therefore, in response to the above problems, this application proposes a mechanical seal with simple structure and stable and reliable sealing performance. Utility Model Content

The first sealing ring 51 is used to ensure the sealing performance between the dynamic ring 4 and the rotating shaft 1. In addition, a static ring 6 rotatably fitted on the outside of the rotating shaft 1 is fixedly provided at the right end of the sealing box body 21 and the inner side of the sealing flange 22. The dynamic ring 4 abuts against the static ring 6, and an elastic mechanism for pushing the dynamic ring 4 to fit tightly against the static ring 6 is provided between the dynamic ring 4 and the spring seat 3. As the dynamic ring 4 rotates along with the static ring 6, it is inevitable that there will be wear. The elastic mechanism can keep the dynamic ring 4 in contact with the static ring 6 and maintain a reliable seal.

[0023] In the utility model, a cooling cavity 211 is provided in the sealed box body 21, and the spring seat 3 and the dynamic ring 4 are both located in the cooling cavity 211. A coolant inlet 212 and a coolant outlet 213 leading to the cooling cavity 211 are provided on the side wall of the sealed box body 21. Coolant can be injected into the cooling cavity 211 through the coolant inlet 212 and leave from the coolant outlet 213, and the cycle continues in this way, so that when the shaft 1 rotates, the dynamic ring 4 and the stationary ring 6 are cooled, thereby ensuring the service life of the utility model.

[0024] Specifically, the elastic mechanism includes a spring 7. Four mounting openings 31 are circumferentially opened on the spring seat 3. The number of springs 7 is the same as the mounting openings 31 and they are correspondingly located in each mounting opening 31. The two ends of the spring 7 respectively abut against the dynamic rings 4 on the left and right sides of the spring seat 3. The two ends of the spring 7 can simultaneously push the dynamic rings 4 on the left and right sides of the spring seat 3, so that the dynamic ring 4 is kept tightly against the static ring 6, and the spring 7 is placed in the mounting opening 31 very stably without positional displacement.

[0025] Furthermore, eight limit grooves 41 are circumferentially provided on the movable ring 4, and the limit member includes a limit rod 32 integrally formed on the spring seat 3, the number and position of the limit rod 32 correspond to the limit groove 41, and a limit block 33 located in the limit groove 41 is integrally formed on the limit rod 32, and the limit block 33 is used to enable the movable ring 4 to rotate along with the spring seat 3 along with the rotating shaft 1, but the movable ring 4 can slide axially relative to the limit block 33 through the limit groove 41, so as not to interfere with the spring 7 pushing the movable ring 4 to fit onto the static ring 6.

[0026] In the utility model, an elastic pad 8 is further provided between the spring seat 3 and the dynamic ring 4, and the elastic pad 8 has a notch 81 for each spring 7 to pass through. The elastic pad 8 has a certain sealing effect. When the first sealing ring 51 leaks, the elastic pad 8 can play a second sealing role.

[0027] The specific structure of the spring seat 3 fixed on the rotating shaft 1 is that a plurality of fixing openings 34 are radially opened on the spring seat 3, screws 9 are threadedly connected to the fixing openings 34, and the screws 9 are fixed on the rotating shaft 1, so that the spring seat 3 is fixed on the rotating shaft 1.

[0028] In addition, a second sealing ring 52 is disposed on the right end of the sealing box 21 and the sealing flange 22 to abut against the stationary ring 6 , and the sealing ring ensures the sealing performance between the sealing box 21 and the sealing flange 22 and the stationary ring 6 .
