Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of engine oil seals, in particular to an axial sealing crankshaft oil seal with a spring on the lip. Background Technique

[0002] The lip of the existing axial sealing oil seal for the engine crankshaft usually has an inclined oil return line. When the engine is working, the oil at the sealing surface is pumped back into the engine interior under the action of hydrodynamic pressure, effectively preventing the leakage of engine oil. When the engine does not run for a long time or is stationary on an inclined road surface, since the oil return line of the lip is in a raised strip shape and runs through the lip sealing surface, a gap is formed between the sealing surface and the inner skeleton end face. When the engine is in a stationary state, the oil return line cannot form a reaction force to pump the leaked engine oil, and the engine oil will leak along the gap to the outside of the engine, causing a leakage risk. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned existing technical problems, the utility model provides an axial sealing crankshaft oil seal with a spring on the lip.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: an axial sealing crankshaft oil seal with a spring on the lip, which includes an outer oil seal and an inner skeleton. The outer oil seal includes an outer skeleton and a rubber body coated on the outer skeleton. A sealing lip is arranged on the inner side of the rubber body, and a spring is arranged on the outer side of the sealing lip. The sealing lip is in interference fit and sealing contact with the end face of the inner skeleton; the vertical surface of the inner skeleton is sleeved on the crankshaft to form a static seal; an inclined arrangement of oil return lines is arranged on the circumference of the sealing surface of the sealing lip, the bottom of the oil return line is connected to the sealing surface of the sealing lip, a static sealing ring is arranged above the oil return line, the bottom of the static sealing ring is connected to the oil return line and the sealing surface of the sealing lip, and the raised height of the static sealing ring is the same as the raised height of the oil return line.

[0005] A further technical solution of the utility model is: the raised height of the oil return line and the static sealing ring is 0.05 mm, so that the sealing surface can not only play a role in static oil sealing, but also does not affect the pumping action during work.

[0006] A further technical solution of the utility model is: the outer oil seal includes a dust-proof pad, the dust-proof pad is arranged at the outer end face of the outer oil seal, and the inner side of the dust-proof pad is in interference fit with the outer side wall of the inner skeleton, playing a role in dust prevention and preventing external dust from entering the sealing surface and causing the oil seal to fail and leak oil.

[0007] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, for an axial sealing crankshaft oil seal with a lip and a spring of the present utility model, a static sealing ring is provided on the oil return line, which can effectively prevent oil leakage when the engine is stationary or tilted, and does not affect the pumping effect during engine operation. Whether the engine is stationary or working, an effective sealing effect can be ensured. Brief Description of the Drawings
