Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical seals, in particular to a mechanical seal that can be used in strong corrosion and strong abrasion working conditions. Background Art

[0002] Mechanical seal is a device used to solve the sealing problem between the rotating shaft and the machine body. It relies on the elastic element to pre-tighten the dynamic and static ring end face sealing pair to achieve the axial end face sealing device, so it is also called end face seal. The basic elements of mechanical seal are: a flat end face sealing pair composed of a dynamic ring and a static ring, elastic elements, auxiliary seals, transmission parts, anti-rotation parts and fasteners. Among them, elastic elements generally refer to springs, bellows, diaphragms, etc., which mainly play the role of pre-tightening, compensation and buffering. It is required to always maintain sufficient elasticity to overcome the friction of auxiliary seals and transmission parts and the inertia of dynamic rings, etc., to ensure the good fit of the end face seal and the tracking of the dynamic ring.

[0003] In highly corrosive working conditions such as strong acid or very high chloride ion content, the more corrosion-resistant Hastelloy is generally selected as the mechanical seal matrix. However, Hastelloy is relatively expensive, the cost of mechanical seals remains high, and some Hastelloy cannot withstand such working conditions. In the existing technology, the general metal mechanical seal has a short life and poor practicality in the highly abrasive pump chamber environment. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a mechanical seal that can be used in strong corrosion and strong abrasion working conditions, which can effectively solve the problems in the prior art that Hastelloy is relatively expensive, the cost of mechanical seals remains high, some working conditions that Hastelloy cannot tolerate, and the life of general metal mechanical seals is also short.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a mechanical seal that can be used in strong corrosion and strong abrasion working conditions, including a sleeve, a slot is provided on one side of the sleeve, a sealing ring 1 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the sleeve, a static ring is fixedly installed on the outer side of the sleeve, a flange is fixedly installed on one side of the static ring, a pump chamber is provided on one side of the flange, a metal part is fixedly installed on the outer side of the flange, a sealing ring 2 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the flange, a sealing ring 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the static ring, a plurality of positioning bolts are arranged on one side of the metal part, a liquid inlet is provided on one side of the metal part, an organic shaft is arranged inside the sleeve, a locking buckle is fixedly installed on one side of the metal part, a dynamic ring is arranged on one side of the sleeve, the dynamic ring and the flange are made of silicon carbide, a bump is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the dynamic ring, and the bump is matched with the slot.

[0006] Preferably, the flange is connected to the metal part via a lock buckle, the lock buckle is a flexible lock buckle, and the cross-section of the lock buckle is an "O"-shaped structure.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, when the mechanical seal is not installed on the pump, the flange and the metal part are flexibly locked together by the O-ring and cannot be separated, which solves the problem of combining the flange and the metal part together and improves the practicality of the overall device.

[0008] Preferably, the second sealing ring is a rubber sealing ring, and the second sealing ring is located at the connection between the flange and the pump chamber.

[0009] Through the above technical solution and the design of the rubber sealing ring 2, the flange can play a sealing role during the use of the pump chamber, thereby preventing the medium from corroding the mechanical sealing metal parts and extending their service life. The cooperation of the protrusion and the groove can make the sleeve and the moving ring fit together. At the same time, when rotating, the moving ring can be driven along with the sleeve to transmit the overall torque. The moving ring and flange made of silicon carbide can increase their service life under highly corrosive working conditions such as strong acid or very high chloride ion content, and can also protect the internal metal parts to prevent them from contacting the medium and preventing them from being corroded and eroded by the medium.

[0010] Preferably, a clamping ring is fixedly mounted on one side of the stationary ring, and the clamping ring is located at the connection between the dynamic ring and the shaft sleeve.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the axial displacement of the silicon carbide dynamic ring and the mechanical seal sleeve is limited by an elastic clamping ring, so that the silicon carbide dynamic ring and the metal sleeve are flexibly limited to form a whole, which is convenient for transportation and installation. During operation, the pressure of the pump chamber can also press the silicon carbide dynamic ring on the sleeve to prevent it from being easily displaced and affecting normal sealing.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a mechanical seal that can be used in strong corrosion and strong abrasion conditions, and has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This mechanical seal can be used in strong corrosion and strong abrasion working conditions. When the mechanical seal is not installed on the pump, the silicon carbide flange and the metal base of the mechanical seal are flexibly locked together by the O-ring and cannot be separated; it solves the problem of combining silicon carbide ceramics with metal parts. The silicon carbide flange and the pump cavity are sealed by the O-ring to prevent the medium from corroding the metal base of the mechanical seal. When the mechanical seal is installed on the pump, the silicon carbide flange is not subject to the locking force of the fastener and will not be broken. Under the action of the liquid pressure in the pump cavity, the silicon carbide flange is pressed on the metal base of the mechanical seal to achieve fixation. It has low cost and is easy to process. It does not affect the installation size of the original equipment, is convenient for users to replace and maintain, and increases the service life of the equipment, achieving multiple goals at one stroke;

[0014] 2. This mechanical seal can be used in strong corrosion and abrasion conditions. The silicon carbide ceramics and sealing rings are in contact with the corrosive medium, and the metal parts are prevented from contacting the medium, thus avoiding the corrosion and abrasion of the medium. It has a sophisticated structure, low cost, strong applicability, and is convenient for users to install and maintain. In addition, the cost of silicon carbide material is lower than that of Hastelloy, which can reduce production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] Specifically, the flange 7 is connected to the metal part 9 through a lock buckle 16. The lock buckle 16 is a flexible lock buckle, and the cross-section of the lock buckle 16 is an "O"-shaped structure. The advantage is that when the mechanical seal is not installed on the pump, the flange 7 and the metal part 9 are together through the O-ring flexible lock buckle 16 and cannot be separated, which solves the problem of combining the flange 7 and the metal part 9 together and improves the practicality of the overall device.

[0025] Specifically, a protrusion 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the moving ring 3, and the protrusion 4 is adapted to the slot 2.

[0029] Working principle: When in use, when the mechanical seal is not installed on the pump, the flange 7 and the metal part 9 are connected together by the O-ring flexible lock 16 and cannot be separated, which solves the problem of combining the flange 7 and the metal part 9 and improves the practicality of the overall device. Through the design of the rubber sealing ring 10, the flange 7 can play a sealing role in the process of using the pump chamber 8, which can avoid the medium from corroding the mechanical seal metal part 9 and extend its service life. Through the cooperation of the protrusion 4 and the groove 2, the shaft sleeve 1 can fit with the dynamic ring 3.

The silicon carbide moving ring 3 and the machine seal sleeve 1 are limited by an elastic clamping ring 11 to limit the axial displacement, so that the silicon carbide moving ring 3 and the metal sleeve 1 are flexibly limited to form a whole, which is convenient for transportation and installation. During operation, the pressure of the pump chamber 8 can also press the silicon carbide moving ring 3 on the sleeve 1 to prevent it from being easily displaced and affecting normal sealing.
