Specific Embodiments

[0021] The present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] As Figures 1 - 3As shown in the figure, an axial seal device for a horizontal centrifuge is proposed in an embodiment of the present application, which includes a centrifuge main shaft 1. A sealing ring 2 is disposed around the outside of the centrifuge main shaft 1, and a sealing assembly is detachably disposed on the inner wall of the sealing ring 2. The sealing assembly includes two locking covers 3 respectively detachably disposed at both ends of the sealing ring 2. The locking covers 3 are annular and coaxial with the sealing ring 2. A plurality of graphite rings 6, two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4, and a plurality of spacer rings 5 are clamped between the two locking covers 3. The graphite rings 6 and the tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 are both in contact with the outer wall of the centrifuge main shaft 1. The two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 are respectively disposed inside the two locking covers 3, and the plurality of spacer rings 5 are respectively disposed between the adjacent tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 and the graphite rings 6, and between the adjacent two graphite rings 6.

[0023] First of all, it should be stated that by disposing the two locking covers 3 at both ends of the sealing ring 2, a stable clamping gap is formed between the two locking covers 3. A plurality of graphite rings 6, two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4, and a plurality of spacer rings 5 are disposed in the clamping gap. Among them, the two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 correspond to the two locking covers 3, forming the effect of an elastic gasket to ensure the locking and sealing effect of the locking covers 3. And the inner diameter of the tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the centrifuge main shaft 1, so that the inner wall of the tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 abuts against the outer wall of the centrifuge main shaft 1 and the inner side of the tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 undergoes elastic deformation, improving the sealing performance. Moreover, the plurality of spacer rings 5 are used to stably clamp the plurality of graphite rings 6 to ensure the installation stability of the graphite rings 6. To disassemble the whole device, only the locking covers 3 need to be removed, and then the tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4, spacer rings 5, and graphite rings 6 are taken out in sequence for corresponding replacement and maintenance.

[0024] Specifically, a screw connection structure 7 is disposed between the locking cover 3 and the sealing ring 2. Through a plurality of screws spaced circumferentially along the locking cover 3, the locking cover 3 is stably disposed on the sealing ring 2 through the fixing action of the screws, improving the installation and disassembly efficiency and convenience on the basis of ensuring the installation stability.

[0025] In order to further improve the installation stability, annular installation grooves are coaxially provided at both ends of the sealing ring 2. The inner diameter of the installation groove is the same as the inner diameter of the sealing ring 2, and the two installation grooves are not communicated. At least one graphite ring 6, one tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4, and at least one spacer ring 5 are disposed in the installation groove. One locking cover 3 clamps at least one graphite ring 6, one tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4, and a plurality of spacer rings 5 on the corresponding side in the corresponding installation groove. That is to say, the installation grooves on both sides of the sealing ring 2 are both installed with a preset graphite ring 6, one tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4, and the corresponding number of spacer rings 5, such as Figure 1As shown, during the installation process, a graphite ring 6 is first placed at the innermost side of the installation groove and abuts against the inner wall of the installation groove, and then the isolation ring 5 and other graphite rings 6 are sequentially placed, ensuring that there is an isolation ring 5 between adjacent graphite rings 6. A tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 is clamped and connected between the outermost isolation ring 5 and the corresponding locking cover 3. In one implementation, two graphite rings 6 and two isolation rings 5 are arranged in the installation groove on one side of the sealing ring 2, and one graphite ring 6 and one isolation ring 5 are arranged in the installation groove on the other side, achieving a better sealing effect.

[0026] In the above structure, the graphite ring 6 and the tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 contact the outer wall of the centrifuge main shaft 1. The two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 are on both sides, and multiple graphite rings 6 are arranged at intervals between the two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4, forming a stable sealing structure. In order to further improve the sealing performance, a nitrogen channel 8 is radially provided on the outer wall of the above sealing ring 2, and an inflation gap 9 is provided between the innermost isolation rings 5 in the two above installation grooves. The nitrogen channel 8 communicates with the inflation gap 9, and nitrogen is filled into the nitrogen channel 8 to enter the inflation gap 9, constituting a gas sealing structure.

[0027] The above locking cover 3 is provided with a positioning groove, and the isolation ring 5 close to the above locking cover 3 is provided with a positioning protrusion 12 adapted to the above positioning groove. The corresponding tetrafluoroethylene sealing ring 4 is clamped between the above locking cover 3 and the adjacent isolation ring 5, improving the clamping stability after installation. The positioning groove and the positioning protrusion 12 are preferably annular and coaxial with the sealing ring 2, improving the positioning efficiency during installation and the cooperation stability between components after installation.

[0028] In addition, a positioning pin structure 10 is provided between the above graphite ring 6 and the above sealing ring 2, ensuring that when the centrifuge main shaft 1 rotates, the graphite ring 6 does not rotate with the centrifuge, ensuring a better sealing effect.

[0029] In order to further improve the sealing performance, an O-ring 11 is provided at the outer ring edge of the above isolation ring 5. The O-ring 11 can be an elastic rubber ring. The O-ring 11 can cooperate with the edge of the graphite ring 6 adjacent to the isolation ring 5 to ensure the sealing performance of the assembly and prevent the input nitrogen from leaking internally.

[0030] In summary, the present utility model proposes a shaft seal device for a horizontal centrifuge, including a centrifuge main shaft 1. A sealing ring 2 is disposed around the outside of the centrifuge main shaft 1, and a sealing assembly is detachably disposed on the inner wall of the sealing ring 2. The sealing assembly includes two locking covers 3 respectively detachably disposed at both ends of the sealing ring 2. The locking covers 3 are annular and coaxial with the sealing ring 2, and the inner diameter of the locking covers 3 is smaller than that of the sealing ring 2. A plurality of graphite rings 6, two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 and a plurality of spacer rings 5 are clamped between the two locking covers 3. The graphite rings 6 and the tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 are both in contact with the outer wall of the centrifuge main shaft 1. The two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 are respectively disposed inside the two locking covers 3, and the plurality of spacer rings 5 are respectively disposed between the tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 and the spacer rings 5 and between two adjacent graphite rings 6. The plurality of graphite rings 6, two tetrafluoroethylene sealing rings 4 and a plurality of spacer rings 5 are clamped and fixed on the inner wall of the sealing ring 2 by the two locking covers 3, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, reduces the later maintenance cost, and further improves the sealing performance by introducing nitrogen to form a gas seal structure.
