Technical Field

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the present invention.
[0027] First, combine Figure 1 The invention describes a liquid leakage-proof backup mechanical seal device according to an embodiment of the utility model, which is used for mechanical seals of centrifugal pumps and the like and has a wide range of application scenarios.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the anti-leakage liquid backup mechanical seal device of the embodiment of the utility model comprises: an annular seat 1, an expansion material 2, a dynamic ring 3 and a static ring 4. Among them, the expansion material 2 is arranged at one end of the annular seat 1; the dynamic ring 3 is movably arranged in the annular seat 1; the static ring 4 is fixedly arranged at the other end of the annular seat 1, and the expansion material 2 pushes the dynamic ring 3 to move until it fits with the static ring 4 after expanding when encountering liquid.
[0029] Specifically, the annular seat 1 is a sealing member, and its structure is an integral structure.
[0030] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the structure of the annular seat 1 can also be designed as a separated first annular fixing seat 11 and a second annular fixing seat 12, the expansion material 2 is arranged in the first annular fixing seat 11, the static ring 4 is arranged in the second annular fixing seat 12, and the dynamic ring 3 is movably arranged between the expansion material 2 and the static ring 4. In this embodiment, the second annular fixing seat 12 is also a sealing member.
[0031] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the anti-leakage liquid backup mechanical seal device of this embodiment also has: an elastic component 5, which is arranged between the expansion material 2 and the dynamic ring 3. When the expansion material 2 expands when encountering liquid, it will push the elastic component 5 and the dynamic ring 3 to move. In this embodiment, the elastic component 5 is composed of a gasket 51 and a spring 52, wherein the gasket 51 is arranged on the expansion material 2 to increase the force-bearing area and also ensure the stability of pushing the dynamic ring 3. One end of the spring 52 is connected to the gasket 51, and the other end is connected to the dynamic ring 3, which can ensure the uniformity of the thrust. At the same time, due to the existence of the spring 52, the sealing effect of the dynamic ring 3 and the static ring 4 can be ensured.
[0032] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the dynamic ring 3 is provided with a spring cavity 31, and the other end of the spring 52 is arranged in the spring cavity 31, so as to optimize the working conditions of the spring 52 and achieve the working effect. Furthermore, the dynamic ring 3 is provided with a sealing cavity 32, and a sealing ring 33 is placed in the sealing cavity 32, which is used for sealing between the dynamic ring 3 and the external sealed workpiece under working conditions, so as to improve the sealing effect.
[0033] When working, after the expansion material 2 expands when encountering liquid, it will push the gasket 51 and the spring 52, and then push the dynamic ring 3, so that the dynamic ring 3 contacts the static ring 4. Under the action of the spring 52, the contact between the dynamic ring 3 and the static ring 4 is further compacted to ensure the sealing effect and prevent liquid from leaking out of the mechanical seal.
[0034] As described above, in the anti-leakage backup mechanical seal device according to an embodiment of the present invention, a double mechanical seal structure is adopted. When the original mechanical seal is worn, the backup mechanical seal automatically plays a role, which greatly increases the sealing effect and can effectively avoid property losses and safety hazards.
[0035] The above combined with Figure 1 The invention describes a liquid leakage-proof backup mechanical seal device according to an embodiment of the invention. Further, the invention can also be applied to a centrifugal pump.
[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the centrifugal pump of the embodiment of the present invention has a motor 6, a pump shaft 7, a pump cover 8, an impeller 9, a pump body 10 and a first mechanical seal 101, and also has the anti-leakage backup mechanical sealing device of the above embodiment, wherein the annular seat 1, the dynamic ring 3 and the static ring 4 are respectively sleeved on the pump shaft 7.
[0037] Further, if Figure 1 , 2 As shown, it also includes: a retaining spring 102, which is used to limit the axial movement of the annular seat 1 along the pump shaft 7.
[0038] Specifically, the impeller 9 is fixed to the pump shaft 7 by a nut and a first mechanical seal 101, a new leakage-proof backup mechanical seal device is added in the pump cover 8, a retaining ring 102 is installed on the pump shaft 7, an annular seat 1 is installed on the retaining ring 102, and the static ring 4 and the annular seat 1 or the second annular fixed seat 12 and the mechanical seal cover plate are installed on the pump cover 8 by bolts.
[0039] When working, the first mechanical seal 101 is a common mechanical seal to prevent the liquid in the pump chamber from leaking out. The anti-leakage backup mechanical seal device is a spare mechanical seal. When the pump is running, the dynamic ring 3 and the static ring 4 are not in contact with friction and wear. If the first mechanical seal 101 is normally worn and replaced regularly, the spare mechanical seal will not participate in the sealing function. When the first mechanical seal 101 fails, the spare mechanical seal is automatically started. When the first mechanical seal 101 inside the pump chamber fails and leaks, the external spare mechanical seal expansion material 2 expands when it contacts the liquid, pushing the gasket 51, the spring 52 and the dynamic ring 3, so that the dynamic ring 3 contacts the static ring 4, thereby preventing the liquid from leaking out of the mechanical seal.
[0040] As described above, in the centrifugal pump of the embodiment of the utility model, a double mechanical seal structure is adopted. When the original mechanical seal is worn, the backup mechanical seal automatically plays a role, which greatly increases the sealing effect and can effectively avoid property losses and safety hazards.
[0041] Above, refer to Figure 1~2The invention describes a liquid leakage prevention backup mechanical seal device and a centrifugal pump according to an embodiment of the utility model. A double mechanical seal structure is adopted. When the original mechanical seal is worn, the backup mechanical seal automatically plays a role, greatly improving the sealing effect, and can effectively avoid property losses and safety hazards.
