Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0039] Embodiment 1:

[0040] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a thrust washer, comprising:

[0041] Metal washer 1;

[0042] The inner mounting ring 2 is arranged inside the metal washer 1, and the inner portion of the inner mounting ring 2 is a circular groove structure for matching with the raised portion of the shaft surface;

[0043] The oil storage channel 3 is opened on the metal gasket 1, and the oil storage channel 3 passes through the side surface of the metal gasket 1 from top to bottom. There are multiple oil storage channels 3, which are evenly spaced and distributed in the circumferential direction;

[0044] A dust cover 4 is arranged on the upper side of the oil storage channel 3;

[0045] The oil outlet pipe 5 is arranged between the metal washer 1 and the inner mounting ring 2, and one end of the oil outlet pipe 5 is connected to the oil storage channel 3;

[0046] The anti-slip portion 6 is provided on the outer surface of the metal washer 1 to increase the friction with adjacent parts and prevent unnecessary sliding or rotation;

[0047] The connecting portion 7 is disposed on the metal washer 1 , and the connecting portion 7 is interference connected with the anti-slip portion 6 .

[0048] In the present technical solution, the thrust washer is composed of a metal washer 1 and an inner mounting ring 2. The inner mounting ring 2 has a circular groove structure inside. This groove structure is designed to match the raised part on the shaft surface. This design enables the thrust washer to be firmly fixed on the shaft to prevent it from sliding or rotating in the axial direction. A plurality of oil storage channels 3 are provided on the metal washer 1. These oil storage channels 3 run from the upper side of the metal washer 1 to the lower side and are evenly spaced along the circumference. The function of the oil storage channels 3 is to store lubricating oil or grease to ensure the lubrication of the contact surface between the shaft and the inner mounting ring 2 and reduce friction and wear. The dust cover 4 is arranged on the upper side of the oil storage channel 3. Its main function is to prevent dust, dirt or other impurities from entering the oil storage channel 3, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and effectiveness of the lubricating oil or grease. The oil outlet pipe 5 is arranged between the metal washer 1 and the inner mounting ring 2, and one end is connected to the oil storage channel 3. This design ensures that the lubricating medium in the oil storage channel 3 can be effectively transported to the contact surface between the inner mounting ring 2 and the shaft through the oil outlet pipe 5, thereby maintaining a good lubrication state. An anti-skid portion 6 is provided on the outer surface of the metal washer 1, the purpose of which is to increase the friction force with the contact surface of adjacent parts and prevent the thrust washer from unnecessary sliding or rotation during use. The connecting portion 7 is interference-connected with the anti-skid portion 6, which enhances the fixation and stability of the thrust washer and facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the anti-skid portion 6. The thrust washer matches the raised portion of the shaft surface through the groove structure of the inner mounting ring 2, and uses the oil storage channel 3 to store the lubricating medium. At the same time, the lubricating medium is protected by the dust cover 4 and transported by the oil outlet pipe 5, which effectively reduces friction and wear, thereby extending the service life and performance of related mechanical parts. The thrust washer increases the friction force with the contact surface of adjacent parts through the anti-skid portion 6 to prevent unnecessary sliding or rotation, making the thrust washer more stable and improving its stability and precision.

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the anti-skid portion 6 is optimized to be a rubber anti-skid ring.

[0050] In the present technical solution, the key part of the thrust washer is that it uses a rubber anti-skid ring as the anti-skid part 6. The rubber material has good elasticity and anti-skid properties, which can effectively increase the friction of the washer on the contact surface. When the thrust washer is installed on the relevant machinery or equipment components, the rubber anti-skid ring is in close contact and fixed on the contact surface. The elasticity of the rubber material enables it to adapt to the slight unevenness of the surface and provide the necessary damping effect when subjected to force.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, it is optimized that a plurality of anti-slip grooves 8 are provided on the outside of the anti-slip ring.

[0052] In the present technical solution, a plurality of anti-skid patterns 8 are provided on the outside of the rubber anti-skid ring. These patterns are usually fine concave-convex or staggered designs. The function of the anti-skid patterns 8 is to increase the contact area and further improve the anti-skid effect. The anti-skid patterns 8 can also effectively prevent the thrust washer from accidentally moving or sliding due to force or vibration after installation, thereby ensuring its stability and reliability during assembly and use. Through this design, the thrust washer can not only effectively prevent the equipment from generating excessive friction and vibration during operation, but also reduce noise and improve the reliability of mechanical assembly, extend the service life of the equipment and reduce maintenance costs.

[0053] Embodiment 2:

[0054] This embodiment provides a thrust washer, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the connection portion 7 is optimized to include:

[0056] Support rings 71 are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the metal gasket 1;

[0057] A positioning ring 72 is disposed on the supporting ring 71;

[0058] A clamping ring 73 is connected to the anti-slip ring, and the clamping ring 73 is wrapped around the positioning ring 72;

[0059] The key groove 74 is provided inside the clamping ring 73 , and the key groove 74 is clamped and connected with the positioning ring 72 .

[0060] In the present technical solution, the support ring 71 is located on the upper and lower sides of the metal gasket 1, and its main function is to provide additional support and stability. The support ring 71 is usually made of a solid material, which can withstand the pressure and force during the assembly process to ensure that the gasket can be correctly positioned and work. The positioning ring 72 is installed on the support ring 71, and its design purpose is to ensure that the anti-slip part 6 can be accurately positioned and remain stable during installation. The positioning ring 72 usually has a specific geometric shape or structure, which can be properly matched with other components (such as the clamping ring 73 and the anti-slip ring) to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the overall assembly. The clamping ring 73 is connected to the anti-slip ring and wrapped around the positioning ring 72. The clamping ring 73 usually has a special structure that can provide a strong fixing force and ensure that the anti-slip part 6 is firmly fixed on the positioning ring 72. The design of the clamping ring 73 can be achieved through various engineering means to ensure that it will not loosen or fail during use. The keyway 74 is located inside the clamping ring 73 and is clamped and connected to the positioning ring 72. This connection method utilizes the design of the keyway 74 so that the clamping ring 73 can fit tightly in the structure of the positioning ring 72 to provide additional strength support and stability. The setting of the keyway 74 can be optimized according to specific requirements and design standards to ensure the reliability and safety of assembly and use.

[0061] Working principle:

[0062] When this thrust washer is assembled in the corresponding equipment or mechanical component, the support ring 71 ensures the stability and structural integrity of the metal washer 1 through its strong supporting force, the positioning ring 72 ensures that the anti-slip part 6 is accurately positioned during the installation process and maintains stability during use, thereby preventing movement or failure due to external force or vibration. The clamping ring 73 ensures that the anti-slip ring can be tightly fixed on the positioning ring 72 through its fixing force and connection method, preventing it from moving or failing during use. The setting of the keyway 74 effectively enhances the connection between the clamping ring 73 and the positioning ring 72, provides additional safety and reliability, and ensures the stability and performance of the overall system. The clamping ring 73 is made of rubber material, which makes it easy for the user to remove it from the positioning ring 72, thereby providing a stable connection between the protective part and the metal washer 1, and at the same time facilitating the removal of the protective part from the metal washer 1, which is convenient for replacement or maintenance, and provides reliable performance and a long service life.

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, it is optimized that a square groove 9 is provided at the bottom of the clamp ring 73 for easy opening of the clamp ring 73 , and there are multiple square grooves 9 , which are connected to the key groove 74 .

[0064] In the present technical solution, the clamping ring 73 is made of rubber material, which makes it easy for the user to remove it from the positioning ring 72. The bottom of the clamping ring 73 is provided with a plurality of square grooves 9 that are easy to pry apart. The design of these grooves makes it easier to operate the clamping ring 73 when it needs to be installed or removed. Through this design, the user can directly and easily pry apart the clamping ring 73, so that the clamping ring 73 is opened or fixed on the positioning ring 72 to meet different installation or maintenance requirements. The square groove 9 is connected to the key groove 74, which means that they are structurally closely connected and interact with each other. The clamping ring 73 completely wraps the positioning ring 72 through the key groove 74. The appearance of the square groove 9 allows the user to directly pry apart the square groove 9. The groove 9 makes it easier for the clamping ring 73 to be pried apart. After the clamping ring 73 is pried apart, the clamping ring 73 can be removed from the positioning ring 72. When the anti-slip portion 6 needs to be installed, the user pries the clamping ring 73 apart through the square groove 9, then puts the pried apart clamping ring 73 on the positioning ring 72, and then loosens the clamping ring 73. The clamping ring 73 is elastic, and under the action of the elasticity, the clamping ring 73 returns to its original state, providing additional functionality, so that the position and fixity of the clamping ring 73 can be adjusted more accurately and controllably during installation and operation. The square groove 9 provides multiple operating points, which also increases the flexibility and convenience of operation, and is particularly effective when operating in a narrow or complex space.

[0069] The fixing ring 102 is arranged on the ear plate 101, and the fixing ring 102 is located at the oil outlet end of the oil outlet pipe 5;

[0070] The dustproof net 103 is arranged inside the fixing ring 102 , and is located at the oil outlet end of the oil outlet pipe 5 .

[0071] In the present technical solution, the ear plate 101 is arranged on the inner wall of the inner mounting ring 2 by means of bolt connection. The inner mounting ring 2 is usually located in the internal structure of the equipment. As a part of the thrust washer, its main function is to support and position other components and provide a basis for assembly. The fixing ring 102 is installed on the ear plate 101. It is located at the oil outlet end of the oil outlet pipe 5. The oil outlet end is the pipe through which the lubricating oil flows out. The setting of the fixing ring 102 ensures that the dustproof net 103 can be tightly fixed near the outlet of the oil outlet pipe 5 and provides the necessary support and stability. The dustproof net 103 is arranged inside the fixing ring 102 and is located at the oil outlet end of the oil outlet pipe 5. The dustproof net 103 prevents dust, foreign matter or other contaminants from entering the oil outlet pipe 5, thereby protecting the key components of the equipment from the influence and damage of the external environment.
