Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0023] Example:

[0024] Figure 1 The invention is a schematic cross-sectional view of a steel-copper self-lubricating composite sleeve, comprising a steel sleeve 1 located on the outside and a copper sleeve 2 located on the inside of the steel sleeve 1, wherein the copper sleeve 2 is fused to the inner wall of the steel sleeve 1 so that the two become a whole; a cavity is provided inside the steel sleeve 1, and a lubricating part (not shown) is arranged inside the cavity; a plurality of through holes 201 are provided along the side wall of the copper sleeve 2, and the through holes 201 are connected to the cavity, and the lubricating part is arranged inside the through holes 201; a plurality of lubricating spiral grooves are provided on the inner wall of the copper sleeve 2, and the helix angles of the plurality of lubricating spiral grooves are different.

[0025] The lubricating part of the utility model adopts graphite powder added with lubricating oil to achieve the lubrication effect between the inner wall of the copper sleeve 2 and the shaft. The cavity can store graphite powder and continuously provide graphite to the through hole during operation, thereby achieving a self-lubricating effect. There is no need to inject lubricating liquid all the time, and self-lubrication can be achieved inside.

[0026] The cavity includes a storage spiral cavity 101 and a plurality of transition cavities 102 . The storage spiral cavity 101 is opened inside the steel sleeve 1 . One end of the transition cavity 102 is connected to the storage spiral cavity 101 , and the other end is connected to the through hole 201 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0027] The storage spiral chamber 101 of the utility model is used to store graphite powder. The storage spiral chamber 101 is also provided with an entrance (not shown). The entrance is located on the outer wall of the steel sleeve 1 and is sealed with a plug to prevent leakage of graphite powder. The storage spiral chamber 101 can achieve different storage spaces by using different spiral angles. The spiral angle is rotated according to actual conditions to determine different amounts of graphite powder. The storage spiral chamber 101 is a spiral structure, which not only maintains the strength of the steel sleeve, but also can provide graphite powder in a circular manner from front to back, and the lubrication effect is better. The transition chamber 102 is a radial hole opened in the storage spiral chamber 101 and facing the through hole 201, which is used to transport the graphite powder in the storage spiral chamber 101 to the through hole 201, so as to keep the graphite powder uninterrupted and the lubrication uninterrupted during the working rotation process.

[0028] The cross-sectional size of the storage spiral chamber 101 is larger than that of the transition chamber 102 , and can store more graphite powder, thereby providing a more lasting lubrication effect.

[0029] The transition chamber 102 is a cylindrical hole, and the transition chamber 102 is arranged along the diameter direction. The cylindrical hole will not accumulate graphite powder, allowing the graphite powder to flow more smoothly to the through hole 201. Similarly, the through hole 201 is also a cylindrical hole.

[0030] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 In the partially enlarged schematic diagram, the connection between the transition cavity 102 and the transition cavity 102 is a rounded corner 103 to prevent the graphite powder from being blocked from flowing toward the transition hole 102 .

[0031] Each of the lubricating spiral grooves is connected to at least one of the through holes 201, so that graphite powder can reach the lubricating spiral groove to improve the lubrication effect. In this embodiment, the number of lubricating spiral grooves is 2, namely the first lubricating spiral groove 202 and the second lubricating spiral groove 203. The helical angle of the first lubricating spiral groove 202 is greater than the helical angle of the second lubricating spiral groove 203. The depth of the two spiral grooves is very small, about one tenth of the single-side wall thickness of the copper sleeve 2. The graphite powder can flow from the through hole 201 to the inside of the two spiral grooves, so that the lubrication effect between the copper sleeve 2 and the shaft is better.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred implementation mode of the present invention, and does not limit the present invention in any form. Any simple modification, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
