[0002] Patent document CN216842715U discloses a glass fiber resin composite shaft sleeve, including an outer sleeve; a frame fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve for increasing the overall strength; and an inner sleeve fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame for contacting the outer wall of the through shaft. The utility model, by arranging the first clamping block and the second clamping block on the outer wall and the inner wall of the frame, cooperates with the first clamping groove on the outer sleeve and the second clamping groove on the outer wall of the inner sleeve, so that the three-layer structure will not be easily separated during use, and has a long service life. The first clamping groove and the second clamping groove are both in a closed state facing the two opening ends, which can avoid axial movement and disengagement. The frame is composed of glass fiber impregnated with synthetic resin, which reduces the overall metal usage, that is, ensures the overall strength and achieves lightweight. Metal-based modified polytetrafluoroethylene is used as the inner sleeve, which has a low friction coefficient and very good self-lubricating performance. The oil injection hole is matched with multiple sets of triangular oil storage tanks, and the lubrication effect is very good.
