Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of powder processing, and particularly relates to a shaft end sealing structure of a reaction kettle. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of artificial graphite, granulation is usually carried out on carbon powder particles. The granulation process mainly consists of equipment such as a heating kettle, a cooling kettle, a ball mill, and a fusion machine. Among them, the reaction kettle is the core equipment in the granulation workshop. In the actual production process, materials are put into the reaction kettle and heated through an external heating jacket of the reaction kettle in an inert gas atmosphere under a certain pressure. At the same time, since the above-mentioned carbon powder materials often contain binders, the material particles are bonded or reacted during the spiral ribbon stirring of the main shaft of the reaction kettle to complete coating granulation.
[0003] However, the reaction kettle is often in an environment of 600°C high temperature, inert gas, and thermal expansion of materials. When the emission of volatile gases is blocked, the internal pressure will cause irreparable damage to the sealing structure at the shaft end of the reaction kettle, resulting in the leakage of the internal materials of the reaction kettle to the workshop through the sealing structure, posing great potential safety hazards to equipment and the environment. Although a graphite ring is usually set at the shaft end of the reaction kettle on site, the graphite ring will also be damaged and cause leakage under high temperature conditions, and the cost of the graphite ring is high, increasing the manufacturing cost. Summary of the Utility Model

[0010] The dynamic seal assembly includes a bearing, a bearing housing, and a first gland. The bearing is sleeved on the end of the shaft outside the reactor and is spaced at one end of the seal mounting frame away from the reactor.
[0011] The frame is connected between the connecting flange and the bearing housing, and the frame is spaced on the outer periphery of the seal mounting frame.

[0013] The packing seat is connected to the connecting flange. The inner circle of the packing seat is recessed to form the packing cavity, and the packing cavity extends to one end of the packing seat away from the reactor to form an opening.
[0014] The second gland is detachably connected to the packing seat, and the second gland has an insertion part that cooperates with the opening.
[0015] Wherein, when the insertion part extends into the opening, the packing cavity is sealed.
[0016] In a possible implementation, the insertion part abuts against the end of the graphite packing ring, and first oil seals are provided between the inner peripheral surfaces at both ends of the second gland and the spacer sleeve.
[0017] In a possible implementation, the packing seat further has a cooling cavity spaced on the outer periphery of the packing cavity, and a cooling water port provided on the outer wall and communicating with the cooling cavity.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 1, the shaft end sealing structure of the reactor provided by the present utility model will be described. The shaft end sealing structure of the reactor includes a spacer sleeve 10, a connecting flange 20, a graphite packing ring 30, a sealing mounting bracket 40, a dynamic sealing assembly 50, and a frame 60. The spacer sleeve 10 is used to sleeved on the shaft end outside the reactor, and the spacer sleeve 10 is fixed to the transmission shaft 70 on the reactor; the connecting flange 20 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the spacer sleeve 10, and the connecting flange 20 is used to connect with the reactor; the graphite packing ring 30 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the spacer sleeve 10; the sealing mounting bracket 40 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the graphite packing ring 30 and connected to the connecting flange 20, and a packing cavity adapted to the shape of the graphite packing ring 30 is provided inside the sealing mounting bracket 40; the dynamic sealing assembly 50 includes a bearing 51, a bearing seat 51, and a first gland 53. The bearing 51 is used to sleeved on the shaft end outside the reactor and is spaced at one end of the sealing mounting bracket 40 away from the reactor; the frame 60 is connected between the connecting flange 20 and the bearing seat 51, and the frame 60 is spaced on the outer periphery of the sealing mounting bracket 40.
[0041] In specific implementation, the graphite packing ring 30 can be graphite packing, etc. After filling the inside of the packing cavity with graphite packing and compacting it, the graphite packing ring 30 is formed. It can be pressed into multiple layers, and the specific number can be determined according to actual needs.
[0042] It should be noted that the spacer sleeve 10 can be a hard chromium sleeve, and its end is welded and fixed to the step of the transmission shaft 70 on the reactor.
[0043] Compared with the prior art, for the shaft end sealing structure of the reactor provided in this embodiment, when the reactor is working, the reactor body is in a fixed state, and the transmission shaft 70 thereon drives the internal spiral ribbon to rotate. During the rotation of the transmission shaft 70, the shaft end sealing structure in this embodiment is relatively stationary with the reactor body through the connecting flange 20 and relatively rotates with the transmission shaft 70. However, the spacer sleeve 10 rotates with the transmission shaft 70, and the graphite packing ring 30 forms a seal between the spacer sleeve 10 and the shaft end sealing structure, and the dynamic sealing assembly 50 also realizes rotational sealing with the transmission shaft 70 through the bearing 51. The shaft end sealing structure of the reactor of the present utility model ensures that material dust will not escape from the gap between the graphite packing ring 30 and the spacer sleeve 10 by setting the graphite packing ring 30, has a lower cost compared with the graphite ring, and the graphite packing ring 30 is formed by pressing and can be pressed into different numbers of layers according to different requirements, with stronger applicability; the material of the spacer sleeve 10 is harder, which can avoid the direct contact between the graphite packing ring 30 and the transmission shaft 70 when the reactor is working, thereby avoiding the wear of the transmission shaft 70 caused by dust floating into it, prolonging the service life of the transmission shaft 70, and the spacer sleeve 10 is convenient to replace and has a lower cost.
[0044] In some embodiments, a specific implementation manner of the above-mentioned sealing mounting seat can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. See Figure 1, the sealed mounting seat includes a packing seat 41 and a second gland 42. The packing seat 41 is connected to the connecting flange 20. The inner ring of the packing seat 41 is recessed to form a packing cavity, and the packing cavity extends to one end of the packing seat 41 facing away from the reactor to form an opening. The second gland 42 is detachably connected to the packing seat 41, and the second gland 42 has an insertion portion 421 that fits with the opening. When the insertion portion 421 extends into the opening, the packing cavity is sealed.
[0045] After the packing seat 41 is installed, graphite packing is filled into the packing cavity through the opening, and a graphite packing ring 30 is formed by pressing. Subsequently, the second gland 42 is installed with the packing seat 41 to seal the packing cavity. This structure facilitates the installation of the graphite packing ring 30, and the second gland 42 can also be opened at any time to replace the graphite packing ring 30 after being used for a period of time, which is convenient to use.
[0046] In some embodiments, an improved implementation manner of the above-mentioned second gland 42 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1 , the insertion portion 421 abuts against the end of the graphite packing ring 30, and first oil seals 43 are provided between the inner peripheral surfaces at both ends of the second gland 42 and the spacer sleeve 10. By providing first oil seals 43 on the inner peripheries at both ends of the second gland 42, the sealing effect can be further improved to avoid dust leakage.
[0047] In some embodiments, an improved implementation manner of the above-mentioned packing seat 41 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1 , the packing seat 41 further has a cooling cavity 411 spaced on the outer periphery of the packing cavity, and a cooling water port 412 provided on the outer wall and communicating with the cooling cavity 411. When the reactor is working, the graphite packing ring 30 may come into contact with the powder escaping along the transmission shaft 70, and the powder is generally above 600 °C. To ensure the use effect of the graphite packing ring 30, cooling water can be introduced into the cooling cavity 411 through the cooling water port 412 for cooling.
[0048] It should be noted that the cooling water port 412 includes an inlet and an outlet (only one water port is shown in the figure). By introducing cooling water into the cooling cavity 411 and flowing out from the outlet, the continuous flow of the cooling water in the cooling cavity 411 is ensured, and the cooling effect is more obvious.
[0049] In some embodiments, an improved implementation manner of the above-mentioned sealed mounting frame 40 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1, an adjusting bolt 44 is provided between the second gland 42 and the stuffing box seat 41. The adjusting bolt 44 is used to adjust the pressing force of the insertion part 421 on the graphite packing ring 30. If dust leakage is found during use, the pressing force on the graphite packing ring 30 can be adjusted by tightening the adjusting bolt 44. Furthermore, the fitting effect between the graphite packing ring 30 and the spacer sleeve 10 is better, reducing dust leakage, facilitating adjustment at any time, and making the use more flexible.
[0050] In some embodiments, a specific connection method of the above-mentioned seal mounting seat, frame 60, and connecting flange 20 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1 , through holes that are coaxial and corresponding are provided at one end of the seal mounting frame 40 facing the connecting flange 20 and one end of the frame 60 facing the connecting flange 20. Threaded holes that are coaxial and corresponding are provided on the connecting flange 20. Screws 46 are connected between the seal mounting frame 40, the frame 60, and the connecting flange 20. The screws 46 sequentially pass through the two through holes and are matched with the threaded holes. That is, the frame 60 and the seal mounting frame 40 are connected to the connecting flange 20 through the same screw 46, and the installation steps are simpler, saving time during the assembly process.
[0051] In some embodiments, an improved fitting method of the above-mentioned seal mounting frame 40 and connecting flange 20 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1 , a gasket 45 is provided between the end face of the seal mounting frame 40 and the connecting flange 20. Optionally, the gasket 45 is made of metal, which can play a sealing role between the seal mounting frame 40 and the connecting flange 20 to prevent the leakage of intermediate material dust.
[0052] In some embodiments, an improved implementation manner of the above-mentioned bearing 51 seat can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1 , a second oil seal 54 is provided on the inner ring of the bearing 51 seat, and the second oil seal 54 is spaced at one end of the bearing 51 facing the seal mounting frame 40.
[0053] Specifically, a third oil seal 55 is provided on the inner ring of the first gland 53.
[0054] In this embodiment, the bearing 51 is selected to be of a self-lubricating type. The self-lubricating bearing 51 has a better use effect. It can not only prevent the influence of oil contamination on the use of the bearing 51, but also ensure the normal movement of the reaction kettle transmission shaft 70, and can also solve the axial expansion of the shaft end of the transmission shaft 70 caused by heat. The second oil seal 54 and the third oil seal 55 also play a sealing role to prevent the leakage of material dust.
[0055] In some embodiments, a specific assembly method of the above-mentioned dynamic seal assembly 50 can adopt the structure as Figure 1 shown. Refer to Figure 1, both between the bearing 51 seat and the frame 60 and between the first gland 53 and the bearing 51 seat are connected by a threaded connector 80. This connection structure is relatively simple, and it is convenient to disassemble and replace the internal bearing 51, with low maintenance costs.
[0056] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
