DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0029] Embodiment

[0030] Figures 1 - 4 FIG. shows the overall structural schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the present utility model. Figures 1 - 4 In, a waterproof electric spindle includes a support shaft 1, a connector 2 installed at one end of the support shaft 1. A support ring groove 10 is opened inside the support shaft 1 on one side of the connector 2. A bottom limit groove 13 is opened on the inner wall of the support ring groove 10 close to the connector 2. The bottom limit groove 13 communicates with the support ring groove 10. A plurality of rolling grooves 11 are opened on the inner wall of the support ring groove 10 on the same side as the bottom limit groove 13.

[0031] A middle limiting ring 4 is arranged outside the connector 2. The connector 2 is inserted into the middle limiting ring 4. An upper sealing ring 3 is installed at the upper end of the middle limiting ring 4. An upper sealing ring 9 is installed on the surface of one end of the upper sealing ring 3 away from the middle limiting ring 4. An outer sealing ring 5 is installed on the inner wall of the upper sealing ring 3. A bottom sealing ring 7 is installed on the surface of the other end of the middle limiting ring 4. Bottom sealing rings 8 are installed on both the inner and outer sides of the middle limiting ring 4. The bottom sealing rings 8 are fixedly connected to the bottom sealing ring 7 at the same time.

[0032] Rolling balls 12 are arranged to roll inside the rolling grooves 11. The bottom sealing ring 7 is rotatably installed inside the bottom limiting groove 13. The upper sealing ring 3 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the support ring groove 10. A limiting guide rail 6 is opened on the outer side of the lower end of the upper sealing ring 3. The rolling balls 12 are in rolling connection with both the limiting guide rail 6 and the inner wall of the support ring groove 10 at the same time.

[0033] When the device is operating, the rolling balls 12 roll inside the rolling grooves 11. Under the limiting connection of the limiting guide rail 6, the rolling balls 12 drive the upper sealing ring 3 to move upward. When the upper sealing ring 3 moves upward inside the support ring groove 10, it drives the middle limiting ring 4 and the bottom sealing ring 7 to move upward inside the bottom limiting groove 13 at the same time, so that the upper sealing ring 9 is in pressing contact with the support ring groove 10, the bottom sealing rings 8 are in pressing contact with the bottom limiting groove 13, and under the condition that the outer sealing ring 5 and the bottom sealing rings 8 are in close contact at the same time, the sealing effect between the connector 2 and the support shaft 1 is achieved, so that a stable sealing and waterproof effect can be provided for the device during use. And when the device stops rotating, the rolling balls 12 will move back to their original positions, and at the same time, the limiting effect on the upper sealing ring 3 is released, so that the upper sealing ring 9 and the bottom sealing rings 8 are released from the sealed state, thereby reducing the service time of the sealing components, effectively preventing the sealing components from providing ineffective sealing support, and improving their service life.

[0034] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The figure shows a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the figure, the middle limiting ring 4 is rotatably arranged inside the bottom limiting groove 13, and the middle limiting ring 4 extends into the support ring groove 10.

[0035] Under the simultaneous limiting support of the support ring groove 10 and the bottom limiting groove 13, the accuracy of the moving direction of the middle limiting ring 4 is further ensured.

[0036] Figures 1 - 3 The figure shows a structural schematic diagram of the sealing method of a specific embodiment of the present invention. Figures 1 - 3 In the figure, there are at least two outer sealing rings 5, and the two outer sealing rings 5 are located on the same side of the upper sealing ring 3. The outer sealing rings 5 are in contact with the outer side of the connector 2.

[0037] The upper sealing ring 9 contacts the upper side of the inner wall of the support ring groove 10, and the two bottom sealing rings 8 simultaneously contact the upper side of the inner wall of the bottom limiting groove 13.

[0038] Both ends of the inner wall of the rolling groove 11 have a height difference, and the moving direction of the rolling ball 12 is opposite to the rotating direction of the support shaft 1.

[0039] Through the rotation of the support shaft 1, the rolling ball 12 is driven to move from the lower part to the upper part inside the rolling groove 11, so that the position of the rolling ball 12 gradually rises, thereby driving the upper sealing ring 3 to move upward. At the same time, under the sealing contact between the two outer sealing rings 5 and the outer side of the connector 2, the upper sealing ring 9 and the inner wall of the support ring groove 10, and the bottom sealing ring 8 and the inner wall of the bottom limiting groove 13, the stability of the device during sealing and waterproofing is further improved. And with the support of the height difference of the rolling groove 11, the accuracy and efficiency of the rolling ball 12 during reset movement are ensured.

[0040] Figure 1 Shown is a schematic structural diagram of the outer sealing method as a specific embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 1 In it, a fastening support groove 14 is provided at the upper end of the support shaft 1. A fastening bolt is arranged inside the fastening support groove 14, and a sealing auxiliary ring 15 is clamped in the fastening support groove 14. The sealing auxiliary ring 15 is used for the sealing of the fastening support groove 14.

[0041] By clamping and placing the sealing auxiliary ring 15 in the fastening support groove 14, and with the assistance of the lower sealing ring of the sealing auxiliary ring 15, the sealing stability of the fastening part of the connecting bolt inside the fastening support groove 14 is ensured, thereby further improving the comprehensiveness of the device sealing.

[0042] Working principle: When the device rotates and operates, the rolling ball 12 rolls inside the rolling groove 11. Under the limiting connection of the limiting guide rail 6, the rolling ball 12 drives the upper sealing ring 3 to move upward. When the upper sealing ring 3 moves upward inside the support ring groove 10, it drives the middle limiting ring 4 and the bottom sealing ring 7 to move upward inside the bottom limiting groove 13 at the same time, so that the two outer sealing rings 5 are in sealing contact with the outer side of the connector 2, the upper sealing ring 9 is in sealing contact with the inner wall of the support ring groove 10, and the bottom sealing ring 8 is in sealing contact with the inner wall of the bottom limiting groove 13. And when the two outer sealing rings 5 and the bottom sealing ring 8 are in close contact at the same time, the sealing effect between the connector 2 and the support shaft 1 is achieved. And when the device stops rotating, under the support of the height difference inside the rolling groove 11, affected by gravity, the rolling ball 12 will perform a reset movement, and at the same time, the limiting effect on the upper sealing ring 3 is released, so that the upper sealing ring 9 and the bottom sealing ring 8 are released from the sealing state, thereby reducing the use time of the sealing components, effectively preventing the sealing components from performing ineffective sealing support, and being able to improve its service life.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model, rather than to limit it.
