[0003] In a general plate conveying chain, during operation, the chain is driven by a transmission device. Frictional wear inevitably occurs between the inner link plate and the outer link plate, and between the surface of the pin shaft and the inner wall of the sleeve when being driven. Lubricating grease is added inside the chain to reduce chain wear, but usually, the lubricating grease will be lost or wasted due to various reasons over time. When the wear reaches a certain level, it is easy for materials to leak into the pin shaft sleeve of the conveying chain, further accelerating wear and shortening the service life of the chain.

Sealing ring I is located inside the inner circle of sealing ring II. A rubber ring I is arranged between sealing ring I and sealing ring II. Rubber ring II and rubber ring III are respectively arranged on both sides of sealing ring I for sealing between the outer link plate and the inner link plate. Rubber ring IV is respectively arranged on both sides of sealing ring II for sealing between the outer link plate and the inner link plate. Sealing ring I and sealing ring II are made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene material.

[0013] Preferably, a main oil passage is provided at one end of the pin shaft, several oil outlet passages communicating with the main oil passage are provided on the peripheral surface of the pin shaft, and an oil injection nozzle is provided at the input end of the main oil passage.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By adding a combination of rubber rings and sealing rings between the inner link plates, outer link plates or hopper connection plates, the present utility model improves the sealing performance, reduces the frictional resistance, and can also save the installation space; The use of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, this material has excellent wear resistance, self-lubrication, relatively high strength, stable chemical properties, and strong anti-aging performance, which can effectively extend the service life of the chain and avoid the phenomenon of the sealing ring breaking under the elastic compression state; The sealing ring I is sealed bidirectionally by the rubber ring II and the rubber ring III.

[0027] The working process of the present utility model:
[0028] During the operation of a plate conveyor chain with an elastic sealing structure of the present utility model, an elastic sealing structure composed of a rubber ring and a sealing ring is added between the inner link plate 3, the outer link plate 1 or the hopper connecting plate to improve the sealing performance, reduce the frictional resistance, and at the same time save the installation space. When the chain is running, the frictional force originally generated between the inner link plate 3 and the outer link plate 1 is absorbed by the elastic sealing structure, greatly reducing the wear of the inner and outer link plates. The rubber ring IV9 has a spring-back characteristic and is originally in a compressed state in the elastic sealing structure combination, ensuring the sealing performance of the combination together with the rubber ring II5. The oil passage facilitates the regular addition of grease.
[0029] When the chain is running, the inner link plate 3 and the outer link plate 1 respectively transmit the force to the corresponding sealing rings through the contacting rubber rings, and the two sealing rings act on the rubber ring I6 with small smooth frictional force at the same time. The two rubber rings IV9 usually act on transmission and sealing. When other rubber rings are worn, before being re-compressed or replaced, the spring-back of the rubber rings IV9 is used to ensure tightness. Prevent materials from entering the inside of the chain and causing wear.
[0030] The two pairs of sealing rings play a stabilizing and protective role. Improve the service life of the whole set of seals.
[0031] The present invention can reduce the loss speed of the grease inside the chain, reduce the wear of the chain, and improve the service life of the conveyor chain;
[0032] Reduce the wear between the inner link plate and the outer link plate, and reduce the replacement of chain parts;
[0033] Prevent materials from entering the pin sleeve during the operation of the conveyor chain;
[0034] Prevent the tightness of the chain from decreasing after the chain is worn.
[0035] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present utility model, not limiting the present utility model. Any simple transformation of the present utility model belongs to the protection scope of the present utility model.
