DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0032] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0033] Figure 1-Figure 4 For the existing side plate structure, the shape of the side plate oil outlet high-pressure chamber is usually designed to be very simple, without considering the impact on the hydraulic flow. Since the side plate oil outlet high-pressure chamber structure does not match the shell oil outlet chamber structure of the rear cover body, when the gear pump is working, local oil is prone to form vortex resistance, which increases the precipitation of gas mixed in the oil, and further causes cavitation of the oil pump.

[0034] Figure 5-Figure 12 A specific embodiment of the utility model is a bimetallic side plate sealing structure for a high-pressure gear pump, such as Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 7 As shown, the side plate is in an "8-shaped" structure as a whole, with two through holes 6 in the middle. The two through holes 6 are used for the gear shaft to pass through the side plate. The diameter of the two through holes 6 is generally 1.5 to 5 mm larger than the outer circle of the gear shaft. The two through holes 6 and the "8"-shaped outer circle of the side plate are designed as a concentric structure; the front of the side plate is provided with a high-pressure unloading groove 3, a low-pressure unloading groove 2, and a high-pressure area oil guide groove 5, wherein the high-pressure unloading groove 3 can be designed as a square structure and communicated with the oil outlet chamber 11 of the housing, and the low-pressure unloading groove 2 can be connected to the two through holes 6 at the same time, and can also be connected to the oil inlet chamber of the housing when necessary. On the back of the side plate, a "3"-shaped back-pressure groove 7 is provided. The "3"-shaped back-pressure groove 7 and the "8"-shaped outer circle are designed as a concentric structure. The back-pressure groove 7 is a strip structure. An ear-shaped baffle 8 and an ear-shaped sealing ring 9 are provided in the groove to form a closed cavity, which divides the oil pump into two areas of high pressure and low pressure. One side of the high-pressure area is a sealing boundary composed of a sealing ring and a baffle, and the other side is a shell, which together constitute a high-pressure compensation area.

[0035] like Figure 8 Fig. 9 Fig.12 As shown, the ear-shaped baffle 8 can be made of nylon, plastic, polytetrafluoroethylene or similar plastics. The ear-shaped baffle 8 is installed between the "3"-shaped back pressure groove 7 of the side plate and the middle support rib 902 of the ear-shaped sealing ring 9, and its cross section is a right-angle trapezoidal structure design. Among them, the end facing the outer side of the side plate is a right angle, and the end facing the ear-shaped seal is an acute angle. The trapezoidal bevel 801 cooperates with the bevel 905 of the baffle support of the ear-shaped sealing ring 9, which ensures that the ear-shaped baffle 8 has excellent assembly and disassembly process characteristics.

[0036] like Fig.10 Fig.11As shown, the ear-shaped sealing ring 9 is installed in the "3"-shaped back pressure groove 7 of the side plate, and is made of rubber or rubber-like material, has certain elasticity, strength and compression deformation characteristics, and its cross-section is a special-shaped structure design, and its structure includes inner support ribs 903, middle support ribs 902, retaining ring support ribs 904 and trapezoidal sealing head 901, and the middle cross-section is in a "⊥" shape as a whole. When installed, the upper end of the middle support rib 902 of the ear-shaped retaining ring 9 faces away from the side plate, and the inner support ribs 903, the retaining ring support ribs 904 and the middle support ribs 90 The transverse "I"-shaped cross section formed at the lower end of the side plate faces the bottom surface of the "3"-shaped back pressure groove 7 of the side plate, and forms an interference fit with the "3"-shaped back pressure groove 7 of the side plate to ensure that it will not fall off when the side plate is installed after assembly. The internal support rib 902 can be a continuous strip structure or a circular boss structure; the two ends of the ear-shaped sealing ring 9 are provided with a trapezoidal sealing head 901 with a reinforced structure at the position of the high and low pressure sealing of the side plate, which increases the sealing length in both the axial and radial directions, so that the sealing in the middle of the side plate is more reliable.

[0037] like Fig.13 As shown, the trapezoidal sealing heads 901 at both ends of the ear-shaped sealing ring 9 can also be designed as a square structure.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
