[0023] The following is an explanation and description of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the utility model, but the following embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiment in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0024] A self-tightening rotary shaft oil seal according to an embodiment of the utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] For easier understanding, see Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides an embodiment of a self-tightening rotary shaft oil seal, comprising an outer ring 1, an inner ring 2 and a connecting piece 3, wherein the outer ring 1 and the inner ring 2 are fixedly connected by the connecting piece 3, and a self-locking mechanism is arranged inside the outer ring 1, the inner ring 2 and the connecting piece 3;

[0027] The self-locking mechanism includes a plurality of support plates 7, a plurality of support frames 8 and a plurality of spiral members 10. The plurality of support plates 7 are evenly and correspondingly installed inside the outer ring 1 and the inner ring 2. An installation cavity 6 is opened between the corresponding support plates 7. The support frame 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 7. The spiral member 10 is installed inside the installation cavity 6. The spiral member 10 is located between the corresponding support frames 8. The spiral member 10 is made of nickel-titanium alloy. A second heat conductive member 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 7. A first heat conductive member 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the support frame 8. The first heat conductive member 9 is located on one side of the spiral member 10.

[0028] It should be noted that by setting up a number of support plates 7, the inner ring 2 and the outer ring 1 can be supported, by setting up a connecting piece 3, the inner ring 2 and the outer ring 1 can be connected, by setting up a spiral member 10, the support frame 8 can be supported, and by setting up a second heat-conducting member 11, when the rotating shaft is opened and rotated, it contacts and rubs with the inner ring 2 to generate heat, and when the heat is guided by the second heat-conducting member 11, the heat is transferred to the first heat-conducting member 9 through the support plates 7 and the support frame 8, so that the spiral member 10 can be heated. By using nickel-titanium alloy to make the spiral member 10, the spiral member 10 will deform when heated, and the deformation and stretching of the spiral member 10 can push the support frames 8 on both sides, so that the support plate 7 on one side of the support frame 8 is tightly fitted with the outer side, thereby completing self-locking.

[0029] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the connecting member 3 is a ring-shaped member.

[0030] It should be noted that the material of the connecting member 3 is rubber. By providing the rubber connecting member 3, the connecting member 3 has a sealing effect and can be bent, so that the distance between the outer ring 1 and the inner ring 2 can be adjusted by extrusion.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a mounting groove 4 is provided on one side of the outer ring 1, and a support member 5 is clamped inside the mounting groove 4, and the support member 5 is a circular spring member.

[0033] It should be noted that the support member 5 can be provided to support the outer ring 1 to prevent the outer ring 1 from being deformed.

[0034] Working principle: When in use, the outer ring 1 and the inner ring 2 are squeezed to reduce the overall volume of the oil seal, so that it can be installed quickly. After that, when the rotating shaft is opened and rotated, it contacts and rubs with the inner ring 2 to generate heat. The heat can be guided by the second heat conductor 11, and the heat is transferred to the first heat conductor 9 through the support plate 7 and the support frame 8, so that the spiral member 10 can be heated. By using nickel-titanium alloy to make the spiral member 10, the spiral member 10 will deform when heated. The deformation and extension of the spiral member 10 can push the support frames 8 on both sides, so that the support plate 7 on one side of the support frame 8 is tightly fitted with the outer side, thereby completing self-locking.

[0035] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
