Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil receivers, and particularly relates to a visual oil receiver applicable to a motor bearing. Background Art

[0002] As the motor runs continuously for a long time, the grease at the bearing will gradually be oxidized and deteriorated, and the additives in it will gradually be exhausted. At the same time, it will also be contaminated by external dust and other impurities, resulting in a decline in the lubrication effect. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly add grease to the bearing to avoid bearing wear and reduce the number of times of motor disassembly and overhaul. During the operation of the motor, the oxidized, deteriorated and contaminated grease will continuously accumulate near the oil drain hole and finally gather in the oil receiver. Since the existing oil receiver cannot effectively judge the oil discharge amount, the refueling and overhaul time is usually roughly estimated according to the operation duration. However, the operating conditions and environments of each motor are different, and the grease loss in the bearings is also different. Some bearings may lack oil due to excessive grease loss and failure to replenish in time, which may seriously lead to bearing overheating and motor damage. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a visual oil receiver applicable to a motor bearing, which has a compact structure, a small volume and is convenient to use, aiming at the above problems of the prior art.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0005] A visual oil receiver applicable to a motor bearing includes: a collection box, a vertical conduit and an inclined conduit; the top of the collection box is connected to the motor bearing, the bottom of the collection box is connected to the top of the vertical conduit, and the bottom of the vertical conduit is connected to the side of the inclined conduit; the inclined conduit is made of a transparent material, and scale lines are provided on the inclined conduit to measure the amount of waste grease discharged from the motor bearing.

[0006] As a further improvement of the utility model, a detachable top seal plug is provided at the top of the inclined conduit, and a detachable bottom seal plug is provided at the bottom of the inclined conduit; when the top seal plug and the bottom seal plug are opened, a cleaning rod is inserted into the inclined conduit from the top to remove the waste grease collected in the inclined conduit.

[0007] As a further improvement of the utility model, a warning line is provided at the lower part of the inclined conduit. When the amount of waste grease collected in the inclined conduit reaches the warning line position, lubricating oil needs to be replenished into the motor bearing.

[0008] As a further improvement of the utility model, both the collection box and the vertical conduit are made of a transparent material.

[0009] As a further improvement of the utility model, the collection box has a conical structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom.

[0010] As a further improvement of the utility model, a connecting flange is provided at the top of the collection box, and the connecting flange is hermetically connected to the motor bearing.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are as follows:

[0012] The visual oil collector applicable to the motor bearing of the utility model forms a compact oil collector main structure through a collection box, a vertical conduit and an inclined conduit; specifically, the top of the collection box is connected to the motor bearing, the bottom of the collection box is connected to the top of the vertical conduit, and the bottom of the vertical conduit is connected to the side of the inclined conduit, that is, the oil collector is installed vertically below the motor bearing. Since the waste grease has a relatively high viscosity and poor fluidity, the waste grease is drained into the inclined conduit through the vertical conduit, and the discharge amount of the waste grease can be measured more accurately; further, the inclined conduit is made of a transparent material, and scale lines are also provided on the inclined conduit. The waste grease discharged from the motor bearing is collected in the inclined conduit after passing through the collection box and the vertical conduit. The oil discharge amount of the motor bearing is visually presented through the transparent inclined conduit, and the grease level is feedback through the scale lines. Whenever the inspection personnel see the oil discharge amount in the oil collector, they can clearly understand the current grease situation of the motor bearing. When the oil discharge reaches or is about to reach the preset warning oil level, lubricating grease is added in time, which improves the reliable safety of the motor operation.

[0019] Embodiment

[0020] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the visual oil collector applicable to the motor bearing of the present utility model includes: a collection box 2, a vertical conduit 3, and an inclined conduit 4. The top of the collection box 2 is connected to the motor bearing, the bottom of the collection box 2 is connected to the top of the vertical conduit 3, and the bottom of the vertical conduit 3 is connected to the side of the inclined conduit 4. The inclined conduit 4 is made of a transparent material, and a scale line 6 is provided on the inclined conduit 4 to measure the amount of waste grease discharged from the motor bearing.

[0021] In this embodiment, an oil receiver main body structure with a small volume is formed by a collection box 2, a vertical conduit 3, and an inclined conduit 4. Specifically, the top of the collection box 2 is connected to the motor bearing, the bottom of the collection box 2 is connected to the top of the vertical conduit 3, and the bottom of the vertical conduit 3 is connected to the side of the inclined conduit 4, thus realizing the installation of the oil receiver vertically below the motor bearing. Since the waste grease has a relatively high viscosity and poor fluidity, the waste grease is drained into the inclined conduit 4 through the vertical conduit 3, enabling more accurate measurement of the discharge amount of the waste grease. Further, the inclined conduit 4 is made of a transparent material, and scale lines 6 are also provided on the inclined conduit 4. The waste grease discharged from the motor bearing is collected in the inclined conduit 4 after passing through the collection box 2 and the vertical conduit 3. The transparent inclined conduit 4 visually presents the oil discharge amount of the motor bearing, and at the same time, the grease level is feedback through the scale lines 6. Whenever the inspection personnel see the oil discharge amount in the oil receiver, they can clearly understand the current grease situation of the motor bearing. When the oil discharge reaches or is about to reach the preset warning oil level, lubricating grease is added in a timely manner, improving the reliable safety of the motor operation.

[0022] As Figure 1 shown, a detachable top seal plug 5 is provided at the top of the inclined conduit 4, and a detachable bottom seal plug 8 is provided at the bottom of the inclined conduit 4. When the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 are opened, a cleaning rod 9 is inserted into the top of the inclined conduit 4, and the waste grease is poked out from the bottom of the inclined conduit 4 to remove the waste grease collected in the inclined conduit 4. It can be understood that in order to improve the cleaning efficiency, a cotton plug or a sponge plug can be provided at the end of the cleaning rod 9, which can not only poke out the waste grease but also wipe the surrounding walls of the pipe.

[0023] Further, the inclined conduit 4 can be made of glass material, and the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 can be made of glass seal plugs. Both inner sides of the two ends of the inclined conduit 4 are frosted, and both ends of the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 are frosted, so that the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 can be quickly and hermetically connected to the two ends of the inclined conduit 4. In other embodiments, the inclined conduit 4 can also be made of transparent plastic, and the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 can be made of plastic seal plugs. Inner threads are provided on both inner sides of the two ends of the inclined conduit 4, and external threads are provided at both ends of the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 to realize threaded and sealed connection between the top seal plug 5 and the bottom seal plug 8 and the two ends of the inclined conduit 4.

[0024] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, a warning line 7 is provided at the lower part of the inclined conduit 4, and the position of the warning line 7 is lower than the connection between the vertical conduit 3 and the inclined conduit 4. When the amount of waste grease collected in the inclined conduit 4 reaches the position of the warning line 7, an appropriate volume of lubricating oil needs to be replenished into the motor bearing. After the lubricating oil is replenished, the amount of waste grease collected in the inclined conduit 4 should be cleared to avoid affecting the measurement of waste grease.

[0025] As Figure 1 shown, both the collection box 2 and the vertical conduit 3 are made of transparent materials, and the collection box 2 has a conical structure with a larger top and a smaller bottom. This is to facilitate observing the discharge amount of waste grease, and at the same time, it is also convenient for the waste grease to drain into the inclined conduit 4 by its own gravity, improving the accuracy of waste grease collection and measurement. A connecting flange 1 is provided at the top of the collection box 2, and the connecting flange 1 is hermetically connected to the motor bearing, that is, the oil catcher is installed below the motor bearing.

[0026] During the long-term operation of the motor, the lubricating grease at the bearing will inevitably gradually lose its lubricating effect. In order to be able to timely and effectively replenish the appropriate amount of lubricating grease, it is necessary to monitor the discharged grease. On the one hand, it is necessary to be able to clearly know the total amount of discharged grease at any time to remind the operator to add grease in time. On the other hand, it is also necessary to be able to clearly know the volume of the discharged grease so that the operator can add the appropriate amount of lubricating grease.

[0027] In order to be able to see the situation of the discharged waste grease at any time, in this embodiment, a transparent material oil catcher is used. At the same time, in order to be able to master the volume of the discharged waste grease, scales representing volume are set on the oil catcher. Further, in order to facilitate cleaning the grease in the oil catcher, an inclined conduit 4 is provided at the lower part of the oil catcher. Both ends of the inclined conduit 4 are open and are usually blocked by a sealing plug. When the grease reaches the warning value and needs to be cleaned, the sealing plug can be opened, and a cleaning tool can be inserted into the inclined conduit 4 to wipe the surrounding walls back and forth to remove the waste grease collected in the inclined conduit 4. This embodiment realizes the visual quantitative filling of lubricating grease, improves the control of bearing lubrication, and thus improves the stability of the safe operation of the motor.

[0028] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions within the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, several improvements and refinements made without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
