[0020] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Identical components are denoted by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "bottom," "top," "inner," and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a particular component, respectively.
[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, the multi-sealing structure of the vacuum pump in this embodiment includes a pump housing 1, an end cover 2, and a rotating shaft 3. The end cover 2 is detachably and sealingly connected to the pump housing 1. A sealing assembly 4 is provided between the end cover 2 and the rotating shaft 3. A vacuum chamber 11 is formed inside the pump housing 1. A groove 21 is formed on one side wall of the end cover 2 facing the vacuum chamber 11. The setting of the groove 21 provides a receiving space for the connecting section 31. The sealing assembly 4 is located on the side of the groove 21 away from the vacuum chamber 11. The rotating shaft 3 includes a connecting section 31 located inside the groove 21. An air guiding groove 311 is formed on the outer side surface of the connecting section 31. An air inlet hole 22 is formed on the end cover 2. The air inlet hole 22 is communicated with the air guiding groove 311. Among them, the air guiding groove 311 plays a role in guiding the airflow. The air pressure in the vacuum chamber 11 is small, and the external air pressure is large. The external air enters the groove 21 through the air inlet hole 22 and can enter the vacuum chamber 11 through the groove 21 and under the action of the air guiding groove 311. On the one hand, the impurities in the vacuum chamber 11 can be carried towards the exhaust port;
[0022] On the other hand, it can prevent the impurities in the vacuum chamber 11 from moving towards the side of the sealing assembly 4 to form an air seal. And under the combined action of the sealing assembly 4, it can prevent the impurities from wearing the rotating shaft 3 and the gear.
[0023] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the air guiding groove 311 is inclined, and the end of the air guiding groove 311 away from the air inlet hole 22 is close to the vacuum chamber 11. In this embodiment, the air inlet hole 22 is formed above the end cover 2 and extends from top to bottom to the groove 21. From the front view of the air guiding groove 311, preferably, the air guiding groove 311 is set to be inclined. The bottom end of the air guiding groove 311 is close to the side of the vacuum chamber 11, and the top end of the air guiding groove 311 is close to the side of the sealing assembly 4.
[0024] Among them, the air guiding groove 311 can be a plurality of annular grooves. Preferably, the air guiding groove 311 is spiral-shaped, and the spiral-shaped air guiding groove 311 is convenient for processing.
[0025] The inner diameter of the air inlet hole 22 is less than or equal to 5 mm. Preferably, the air inlet hole 22 is 2 - 3 mm. By controlling the aperture size of the air inlet hole 22, a large amount of external air entering the vacuum pump can be prevented from affecting the vacuum degree.
[0026] An electromagnetic valve is connected to the air inlet hole 22. The opening size of the air inlet hole 22 can be controlled through the electromagnetic valve, so as to reduce the influence brought by the aperture size of the air inlet hole 22;
[0027] And when there are more impurities discharged at the exhaust port of the vacuum chamber 11, the opening amount can be increased to increase the intake air volume of the external air, so as to better discharge the impurities;
[0028] When there are fewer impurities discharged at the exhaust port of the vacuum chamber 11, the opening amount can be reduced, and the intake amount of external air can be reduced.
[0029] Refer to Figure 3 As shown, an oil slinger 5 is connected to the rotating shaft 3. The sealing assembly 4 includes a bushing 41 connected to the oil slinger 5. A piston ring sleeve 42 is connected between the bushing 41 and the rotating shaft 3. A piston seal ring 43 is connected between the piston ring sleeve 42 and the bushing 41. The sealing performance between the piston ring sleeve 42 and the bushing 41 is achieved through the piston seal ring 43.
[0030] Refer to Figure 3 As shown, one end of the piston ring sleeve 42 abuts against the oil slinger 5, and a ring groove 44 is provided. A sealing ring 45 is embedded in the ring groove 44. At the end of the oil slinger 5 facing away from the piston ring sleeve 42, it abuts against a bearing. The bearing cooperates with the piston ring sleeve 42 to position the oil slinger 5. The setting of the sealing ring 45 increases the sealing performance between the piston ring sleeve 42 and the oil slinger 5.
[0031] A bushing 32 is connected to the rotating shaft 3. The bushing 32 is located on the side of the piston ring sleeve 42 facing away from the oil slinger 5 and abuts against the piston ring sleeve 42. The bushing 32 serves to position the piston ring sleeve 42.
[0032] An oil seal 46 is connected between the bushing 32 and the bushing 41. The setting of the oil seal 46 increases the sealing performance between the bushing 32 and the bushing 41.
[0033] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions within the idea of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
