[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0031] In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, “plurality” means two or more.

[0032] Examples, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a crank-connecting rod mechanism comprises:

[0033] The crank 100 has a mounting cavity 110 formed at the rotating end of the crank 100 .

[0034] The crank disk 200 has an eccentric shaft 210 fixedly connected to the end face of one end of the crank disk 200. The axis of the eccentric shaft 210 is arranged parallel to the axis of the crank disk 200, and the eccentric shaft 210 is installed in the installation cavity 110 through a bearing 300, that is, one end of the eccentric shaft 210 extends axially into the installation cavity 110, and the eccentric shaft 210 is rotatably connected to the crank 100 through the bearing 300.

[0035] The oil seal assembly 400 is sleeved on the outside of the eccentric shaft 210 and installed in the installation cavity 110 to prevent the lubricating oil in the installation cavity 110 from flowing out.

[0036] Among them, the oil seal assembly 400 includes an annular sealing elastic base 410, an annular sealing lip 420 and an annular clamping spring 430. An annular receiving cavity 440 with an open end is formed on the end surface of the annular sealing elastic base 410. The annular sealing lip 420 is integrally formed on the inner circumferential surface of the annular sealing elastic base 410, and the annular sealing lip 420 is located at one end close to the opening of the annular receiving cavity 440. The annular clamping spring 430 is accommodated in the annular receiving cavity 440, and the annular clamping spring 430 is coaxially sleeved on the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440 and makes the annular sealing lip 420 elastically abut against the outer circumferential surface of the eccentric shaft 210, so as to apply radial pressure to the annular sealing lip 420 through the annular clamping spring 430, thereby improving the sealing effect of the oil seal assembly 400.

[0037] In the present application, an annular receiving cavity 440 with an opening at one end is formed on the end face of the annular sealing elastic base 410, and an annular sealing lip 420 is integrally formed on the inner circumferential surface of the annular sealing elastic base 410 near the end of the opening of the annular receiving cavity 440, and an annular clamping spring 430 is sleeved on the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440. Radial pressure can be applied to the annular sealing lip 420 through the elastic deformation of the annular clamping spring 430, so that an adhesive oil film of appropriate thickness exists between the annular sealing lip 420 and the outer circumferential surface of the eccentric shaft 210, which can not only seal the fluid medium, but also lubricate the annular sealing lip 420 and the eccentric shaft 210, thereby avoiding dry friction between the oil seal assembly 400 and the eccentric shaft 210 and causing wear of the oil seal assembly 400 and the eccentric shaft 210 and a sharp increase in heat generation.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the lip angle α of the annular sealing lip 420 is 40°.

[0039] Specifically, the lip angle α is the angle between the annular sealing lip 420 and the eccentric shaft 210. In order to obtain the appropriate angle of the lip angle α, the oil seal assembly 400 cut at two angles was tested for operating life while maintaining the same shaft diameter. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0040] Table 3 Test results of two different lip angles

[0041]

[0042] Through comparative measurement, the lip angle α of the annular sealing lip 420 is set to 40°, which has a longer service life.

[0043] Preferably, the annular sealing elastic base 410 and the annular sealing lip 420 are made of fluororubber. Fluororubber still has good physical properties under high temperature (up to 250° C.) conditions, and usually has very good resistance to oil, fuel, solvents and chemicals.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the radial dimension of the annular tightening spring 430 in the natural state is smaller than the inner diameter dimension of the annular receiving cavity 440, that is, the minimum radial dimension of the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440 is larger than the radial dimension of the annular tightening spring 430 in the natural state, so that after the annular tightening spring 430 is sleeved on the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440, the annular tightening spring 430 undergoes elastic deformation and applies centripetal force to the annular sealing lip 420.

[0045] Preferably, the circumferential length of the annular tightening spring 430 is 78 mm, and the elastic stiffness coefficient of the annular tightening spring 430 is 1.213 N / mm.

[0046] Specifically, the clamping force of the annular clamping spring 430 is related to the length of the annular clamping spring 430. By testing several annular clamping springs 430 with different lengths, it is found that the most suitable length of the annular clamping spring 430 is 78 mm, as shown in Table 1.

[0047] Table 1 Summary of test spring parameters

[0048]

[0049] Preferably, the annular tightening spring 430 is an annular helical spring wound with stainless steel wire.

[0050] The diameter of the stainless steel wire is d=0.2 mm; and the helical angle of the annular helical spring is 5.14°.

[0051] The material standards and specifications of stainless steel wire are as follows, see Table 2.

[0052] Table 2 Basic parameters of stainless steel wire

[0053]

[0054] In a specific embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, a limiting ring 450 for axially limiting the annular clamping spring 430 is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440, that is, the limiting ring 450 is integrally formed on the inner circumferential surface of the annular receiving cavity 440 near the end of the opening of the annular receiving cavity 440; the outer diameter of the limiting ring 450 is larger than the inner diameter of the annular clamping spring 430 after being sleeved in the annular receiving cavity 440, and is used to axially limit the annular clamping spring 430 to prevent the annular clamping spring 430 from escaping from the annular receiving cavity 440, thereby improving the stability of the oil seal assembly 400.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial technical effects:

[0056] 1) The annular clamp spring provides centripetal force for the annular sealing lip, thereby improving the sealing performance between the annular sealing lip and the surface of the eccentric shaft.

[0057] 2) The annular sealing elastic base and the annular sealing lip are made of fluororubber, which has higher tolerance temperature and speed under high speed operation.

[0058] 3) The lip angle of the annular sealing lip is 40°, which can effectively increase the service life of the oil seal assembly while improving the sealing effect and durability of the oil seal cover.

[0059] 4) The annular clamp spring is an annular spiral spring formed by winding stainless steel wire, which has sufficient elastic strength and hardness and can withstand high temperatures.

[0060] The replacement period of the crank rocker mechanism in the present application is increased from half a year to more than two years. Even if damage occurs, only the oil seal assembly needs to be replaced, which greatly saves maintenance costs.

[0061] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
