Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of machinery, and more particularly to a composite shaft sleeve. Background Art

[0002] A shaft sleeve with graphite columns embedded in its walls has a self-lubricating function. It uses fine graphite particles worn off the columns as a lubricant to achieve continuous lubrication. However, these fine graphite particles are lost during shaft rotation. Furthermore, as the columns wear, their height decreases, and they no longer maintain continuous contact with the shaft. Consequently, the shaft cannot be continuously supplied with the fine graphite particles for lubrication, resulting in a loss of the sleeve's inherent self-lubricating function and poor overall performance. Accordingly, the present invention proposes a composite shaft sleeve. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art and provide a composite shaft sleeve having the characteristics of continuous lubrication and long service life.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is achieved as follows: the composite sleeve involved in the present invention comprises an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve arranged coaxially, the outer sleeve rotates relative to the inner sleeve, and the inner sleeve is provided with several rows of graphite holes arranged at intervals along the axial direction. Graphite columns are embedded in the graphite holes, and the outer ends of the graphite columns have graphite ball heads extending out of the holes. The inner wall surface of the outer sleeve is provided with adjustment grooves that match the graphite ball heads one by one. The adjustment grooves extend counterclockwise along the circumference of the outer sleeve, and the graphite ball heads are embedded in the adjustment grooves. The depth of the adjustment grooves decreases along the extension direction.

[0005] The utility model is further configured as follows: a plurality of limiting grooves are arranged at equal intervals and angles along the circumferential direction on the outer wall surface of the outer sleeve; a ball plunger is threadedly connected to the outer sleeve; and the ball head on the ball plunger is embedded in one of the limiting grooves.

[0006] The utility model is further configured as follows: the limiting groove is spherical.

[0007] The utility model is further configured as follows: the ball plunger is buried in the outer shaft sleeve.

[0008] The utility model is further configured as follows: a plurality of inner rotation holes with adjacent equal angles are distributed around one end of the inner sleeve, a plurality of outer rotation holes with adjacent equal angles are distributed around one end of the outer sleeve, and the outer rotation holes and the inner rotation holes are arranged on different sides.

[0009] The utility model is further configured to include: a first turning tool and a second plate turning tool;

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present utility model, the preferred implementation schemes of the present utility model will be described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are only for further explaining the features and advantages of the present utility model, rather than limiting the patent requirements of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] See Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, a composite bushing involved in this embodiment includes an inner bushing 1 and an outer bushing 2 arranged coaxially. The outer bushing 2 rotates relative to the inner bushing 1. A number of columns of graphite holes (not marked) are circumferentially arranged at intervals along the axial direction on the inner bushing 1. Graphite columns 3 are embedded in the graphite holes. The outer ends of the graphite columns 3 have graphite ball heads 31 protruding from the hole openings. Adjustment grooves 4 that match the graphite ball heads one by one are provided on the inner wall surface of the outer bushing 2. The adjustment grooves 4 extend counterclockwise along the circumferential direction of the outer bushing 2. The graphite ball heads 31 are embedded in the adjustment grooves 4, and the depth of the adjustment grooves 4 decreases along the extension direction.

[0023] Furthermore, a number of inner turning holes 7 with equal adjacent interval angles are circumferentially arranged at one end of the inner bushing 1, and a number of outer turning holes 8 with equal adjacent interval angles are circumferentially arranged at one end of the outer bushing 2. The outer turning holes 8 and the inner turning holes 7 are arranged on different sides.

[0024] In this implementation scheme, when the graphite column 3 wears and becomes shorter, and the shaft rotating in the bushing can no longer contact the graphite column 3, the outer bushing 2 can be rotated relative to the inner bushing 1 until the adjustment groove 4 moves circumferentially, laterally pushing the graphite ball head 31. The graphite ball head 31 drives the graphite column 3 to move inward to compensate for the worn part of the graphite column, so that the shaft rotating in the bushing can contact the graphite column 3 again to provide continuous lubrication.

[0025] Embodiment 2

[0026] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, a composite bushing involved in this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 1, is further provided that a number of limiting grooves 5 are circumferentially arranged at equal interval angles on the outer wall surface of the outer bushing 2. A ball head plunger 6 is threadedly connected to the outer bushing 2, and the ball head part on the ball head plunger 6 is embedded in one of the limiting grooves 5.

[0027] Furthermore, the limiting grooves 5 are spherical.

[0028] Furthermore, the ball head plunger 6 is buried in the outer bushing 2.

[0029] In this implementation scheme, through the arrangement of the limiting grooves 5 and the ball head plunger 6, after the outer bushing 2 is rotated a certain circumferential angle once, the ball head part on the ball head plunger 6 will snap into another limiting groove 5 to play a role of rotational positioning and gear shifting, thereby controlling the circumferential angle of a single rotation and ensuring that the supplementary height of the graphite column 3 is controllable after a single adjustment is completed.

[0030] Embodiment 3

[0031] See Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, a composite bushing involved in this embodiment is further provided with a first turning tool and a second turning tool on the basis of Embodiments 1 and 2. The first turning tool includes a first turning seat 9, on which there is an inner turning column 10 matching the inner turning hole, and a first turning handle 11 for driving rotation is also provided on the first turning seat 9. The second turning tool includes a second turning seat 12, on which there is an outer turning column 13 matching the outer turning hole, and a second turning handle 14 for driving rotation is also provided on the second turning seat 12.

[0032] In this embodiment, by using the external first turning tool and the second turning tool, with the inner turning column 10 inserted into the inner turning hole and the outer turning column 13 inserted into the outer turning hole, and by relatively rotating the first turning tool and the second turning tool, the outer bushing 2 can be rotated relative to the inner bushing 1.

[0033] Regarding the composite bushing involved in the present utility model, during the process of the outer bushing rotating relative to the inner bushing, the worn and shortened graphite column of the composite bushing can further extend to provide continuous lubrication and extend the service life of the shaft and the bushing. When the inner and outer bushings are relatively rotated and adjusted, a gear structure is provided between them to make the single adjustment accurate and reliable. And tools for realizing the relative rotation of the inner and outer bushings are configured, which is convenient for adjustment. The overall function is perfect and the practicability is strong.
