Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a mechanical seal structure, in particular to a mechanical seal for preventing particle deposition of a polypropylene pelletizer. Background Technique
[0002] The polypropylene granulator unit is one of the most important equipments in the propylene project. It is an integrated device that mixes polypropylene resin polymerized catalytically in the propylene project with other auxiliary materials in strict proportion according to user requirements, and then mixes, plasticizes, extrudes, underwater pelletizes, separates and dries it through the unit, and finally processes it into regular granular products. This unit consists of seven main parts: a metering and feeding system, a driving system, a mixing and extrusion system, an extrusion and granulation system, a particle processing system, other auxiliary systems, and an electrical control system.
[0003] The extrusion and granulation system mainly consists of a throttling start valve, a screen changer, a connecting and supporting device, a head device, a temperature control pipeline, an underwater pelletizing device, etc.;
[0004] The pelletizing mechanism is the key mechanism of the underwater pelletizing device. Its structural design should not only ensure the stable high-speed rotation of the cutting knife, but also ensure that the cutting knife overcomes the extrusion pressure of the material and thus clings to the template. It mainly consists of a driving motor, a coupling, a locking oil cylinder, a cutting knife shaft, a cutter head device, a knife shaft moving oil cylinder, a water chamber, a bearing box, etc. The cutting knife shaft is connected to the driving motor through a coupling and then passes through the entire bearing box and water chamber and connects the cutting knife device to itself, thus ensuring the transmission of power and the operation of the cutting knife. However, during the operation of the pelletizer unit, the water chamber is always filled with flowing cooling water, which requires ensuring that the cooling water does not enter the bearing box and cause the lubricating oil to deteriorate, thereby damaging the bearing and affecting the normal operation of the pelletizing mechanism. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the background technique, the utility model discloses a mechanical seal for preventing particle deposition of a polypropylene pelletizer. A cylindrical gland is added at the dynamic and static ring seal of the cutting knife rotating shaft originally used for pelletizing, and a toothed ring groove is provided at the retaining ring A of the cylindrical gland to prevent polypropylene particles mixed in the cooling water in the water chamber from entering the dynamic and static ring seal. An external thread groove is provided at the shaft sleeve covered by the cylindrical gland to play a role in forming a pressure difference by rotating the water flow, so that the polypropylene particles entering the cylindrical cavity A overflow from the discharge hole.

The right end of the dynamic ring is in contact with the left end of the static ring. A corrugated spring is arranged between the fixing ring and the dynamic ring to support the dynamic ring against the static ring.
[0009] In the particle deposition prevention type mechanical seal for a polypropylene pelletizer, a screw hole is arranged on the fixing ring. The position of the screw hole corresponds to the position of the discharge hole. A fastening screw is screwed in the screw hole and passes through a through hole provided on the shaft sleeve and abuts against the rotating shaft to fix the fixing ring on the shaft sleeve.
[0010] In the particle deposition prevention type mechanical seal for a polypropylene pelletizer, the outer edge of the dynamic ring is in clearance fit with the inner edge of the cylindrical housing, and the inner edge of the static ring is in clearance fit with the shaft sleeve.

A sealing ring B25 is provided in the area between the included angle formed by the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity B22 and the retaining ring B11 and the half-ring groove 24. A fixing ring 16 is sleeved on the sleeve 1 outside the left side of the cylindrical housing 21. A screw hole 18 is provided on the fixing ring 16. The position of the screw hole 18 corresponds to the position of the discharge hole 17.

A cylindrical cavity A14 is provided inside the cylindrical gland 4. A retaining ring A2 is provided at the left end of the cylindrical cavity A14. A toothed ring groove 3 is provided on the inner edge surface of the retaining ring A2. The cylindrical gland 4 is movably sleeved on the left part of the sleeve 1 by means of the cylindrical cavity A14 it is provided with. The inner edge of the toothed ring groove 3 is in clearance fit with the sleeve 1. A flange 13 is provided at the outer edge of the right end of the cylindrical gland 4.

The bellows spring 20 elastically pushes the moving ring 8 against the stationary ring 10 to seal the right bearing box. The cooling water in the left pelletizing water chamber and the polypropylene particles mixed in the cooling water are not easily introduced into the right bearing box. The bearing oil in the right bearing box is not easily leaked into the water chamber. The setting of the toothed ring groove 3 effectively blocks most of the polypropylene particles from entering the cylindrical cavity A14 from the water chamber and damaging the dynamic and static ring seals. The rotation of the shaft sleeve 1 drives the rotation of the external thread groove 15. The rotation of the external thread groove 15 can make a small amount of cooling water and polypropylene particles mixed in the cooling water that enter the cylindrical cavity A14 along the toothed ring groove 3 rotate. A pressure difference is formed on both sides of the toothed ring groove 3, so that a small amount of cooling water and polypropylene particles mixed in the cooling water that enter the cylindrical cavity A14 can effectively overflow from the discharge hole 17 provided in the cylindrical gland 4 into the pelletizing water chamber, protecting the dynamic and static ring seals, and thus protecting the bearing box.
