[0002] In the technical field of fermentation, a rotary brush filter is a frequently used liquid filtration system, which is widely used because of its simple operation and convenient cleaning. A full-automatic brush filter is a precision device that uses a specially made stainless steel filter screen to directly intercept impurities in the liquid, remove substances such as suspended solids, sediment, iron shavings, and particulate matter contained in the liquid, thereby reducing the turbidity of the liquid, reducing the generation of system fouling, bacteria and algae, rust, etc., so as to purify the liquid and protect other equipment in the system to work normally. The liquid enters the body of the rotary brush filter from the liquid inlet. Due to the intelligent (PLC, PAC) design, the system can automatically identify the degree of impurity deposition in the filter element and give a signal to clean the filter element and discharge the sewage automatically.

[0028] The utility model changes the packing seal arranged in the brush filter in the prior art to a mechanical seal to improve the sealing performance; under the action of the elastic member and the medium pressure in the embodiment of the present application, a suitable pressing force is generated on the contact surface between the fixed seal member 3 and the pressing seal member 4, so as to ensure that two smooth and flat end faces are closely attached, so as to maintain an extremely thin fluid film between the two end faces, thereby achieving the purpose of sealing.
[0029] Specifically, in order to improve the sealing performance between the fixed seal member 3 and the pressing seal member 4, the fixed seal member 3 has a first contact surface, the pressing seal member 4 has a second contact surface, and the first contact surface is docked with the second contact surface; the first contact surface is a plane; the second contact surface is a plane.
[0030] Preferably, the first contact surface is a smooth and flat end face; the second contact surface is a smooth and flat end face, so as to prevent mutual damage during the mutual friction between the first contact surface and the second contact surface while forming a friction pair, so as to extend the service life of the sealing structure.
[0031] Specifically, in order to improve the pressing force between the fixed seal member 3 and the pressing seal member 4, the sealing structure further includes an elastic member 5, and the elastic member 5 is connected to the end of the pressing seal member 4 far from the fixed seal member 3, so that the pressing seal member 4 is closely attached to the fixed seal member 3 under the combined action of the elastic force of the elastic member 5 and the fluid pressure in the brush filter.
[0032] Optionally, the elastic member 5 is a spring or a bellows.
[0033] Furthermore, in order to install the elastic member 5, the sealing structure in the embodiment of the present application further includes a mounting seat 51 and a transmission connecting member 52. The end of the elastic member 5 far from the pressing seal member 4 is connected to the mounting seat 51 to support the elastic member 5; both ends of the transmission connecting member 52 are respectively connected to the pressing seal member 4 and the elastic member 5, so that the elastic member 5 is connected to the pressing seal member 4.
