Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of sealing technology, and particularly to a structure of a skeleton oil seal ring. Background Art

[0002] A skeleton oil seal is a sealing element. The function of the oil seal is to isolate the components that need lubrication in the transmission components from the external environment, prevent the leakage of lubricating oil inside the components, and prevent substances such as dust from entering. The skeleton is like the steel bars in a concrete component, playing a strengthening role and enabling the oil seal to maintain its shape and tension. Skeleton oil seals can be classified into single-lip skeleton oil seals and double-lip skeleton oil seals according to their structural forms. Among them, the secondary lip of the double-lip skeleton oil seal plays a dust-proof role, preventing external dust, impurities, etc. from entering the machine interior.

[0003] In the existing technology, the inner ring height of the skeleton oil seal ring does not exceed the outer ring height (the axial dimension of the inner ring cantilever is smaller than the axial dimension of the outer ring rubber body). The inner ring is tightened by a spring, and automatic compensation can be achieved after the radial sealing lip wears; however, in the existing technology of skeleton oil seals, due to the smaller axial dimension of the inner ring, the inner ring cantilever is greatly affected by the outer ring and the skeleton, resulting in a smaller reaction force of the inner ring; therefore, after the sealing lip wears, the sealing performance of the existing skeleton oil seal will rapidly decline, resulting in a shorter service life. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this application is to propose a structure of a skeleton oil seal ring, aiming to solve the problem that the sealing performance of the existing skeleton oil seal rapidly declines after the sealing lip wears.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the structure of the skeleton oil seal ring proposed in this application includes: a main body, the main body includes an outer ring and an inner ring, and is characterized in that the axial dimension of the inner ring is greater than the axial dimension of the outer ring, and a sealing lip is provided at one end of the inner ring that extends beyond the outer ring range on the inner side.

[0006] Optionally, the main body is a circular ring structure made of rubber material.

[0007] Optionally, the outer ring and the inner ring are integrally formed structures.

[0008] Optionally, an annular dust-proof lip is provided on the inner side of the inner ring, and the dust-proof lip is located at one end of the inner ring within the outer ring range.

[0009] Optionally, the sealing lip is a first sealing lip, and the first sealing lip is provided at one end of the inner ring that extends beyond the outer ring range on the inner side.

[0010] Optionally, a circular first spring is provided on the outer side of the inner ring corresponding to the first sealing lip, and the first spring is a circular spring, and the first spring is embedded on the outer side of the inner ring.

[0011] Optionally, the sealing lip is two second sealing lips, and the two second sealing lips are located at one end of the inner ring extending out of the outer ring range on the inner side of the inner ring.

[0012] Optionally, a ring-shaped second spring is arranged on the outer side of the inner ring corresponding to the two second sealing lips. The second spring is a square spring and is embedded on the outer side of the inner ring.

[0013] Optionally, an annular skeleton is arranged inside the outer ring. The cross-section of the skeleton is an L-shaped structure, and the skeleton is used to support the main body.

[0014] By increasing the axial dimension of the inner ring in the technical solution of the present application, the sealing lip and the spring are separated from the outer ring and the skeleton, reducing the influence of the supporting force of the outer ring and the skeleton on the sealing lip, enabling the sealing lip to closely adhere to the intermediate component under the action of the spring, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing ring. When the sealing lip is worn, due to the increased distance between the sealing lip and the outer ring and the skeleton, the spring can better drive the sealing lip to contract inward, always ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing ring, and thus extending the service life of the sealing ring.

[0027] It should be noted that the structures, ratios, sizes, etc. shown in the attached drawings of this specification are only used to cooperate with the content disclosed in the specification for those familiar with this technology to understand and read, and are not used to limit the implementation conditions of this application. Therefore, they do not have any technical substance. Any modification of the structure, change of the ratio relationship, or adjustment of the size, without affecting the efficacy that this application can produce and the purpose that can be achieved, should still fall within the scope that the technical content disclosed in this application can cover.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , in the prior art, the height of the inner ring 520 of the skeleton oil seal ring does not exceed the height of the outer ring 510. The inner ring 520 is tightened by a spring 7, and automatic compensation can be achieved after the radial sealing lip wears; however, in the prior art, for the skeleton oil seal, due to the smaller axial dimension of the inner ring 520, the inner ring 520 is greatly affected by the outer ring 510 and the skeleton 6, resulting in a smaller reaction force of the inner ring 520; therefore, after the sealing lip 522 wears, the sealing performance of the existing skeleton oil seal will rapidly decline, resulting in a shorter service life.

[0029] In view of this, the present application proposes a structure of a skeleton oil seal ring, including: a main body 1, the main body 1 includes an outer ring 110 and an inner ring 120, and is characterized in that the axial dimension of the inner ring 120 is greater than the axial dimension of the outer ring 110.

[0030] The first embodiment of the structure of a skeleton 2 oil seal ring in the present application:

[0031] In the present application, reference Figures 2 to 3 , is the first embodiment in the present application, including: a main body 1, the main body 1 is a circular ring structure made of rubber material. The main body 1 made of rubber material has a certain elasticity, can better fit on the surface of the parts, has good sealing performance, and has good wear resistance; the main body 1 includes an outer ring 110 and an inner ring 120, the inner ring 120 is located inside the outer ring 110, and the axial dimension of the inner ring 120 is greater than the axial dimension of the outer ring 110. As Figure 3 shown, that is, the lower end of the inner ring 120 extends out of the outer ring 110, which can reduce the influence of the supporting force of the outer ring 110 on one end of the inner ring 120 extending out of the outer ring 110. The outer ring 110 and the inner ring 120 are integrally formed structures, making the structure of the main body 1 more stable, and can be formed by injection molding at one time, reducing the processing cost.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 , inside the outer ring 110, there is a circular skeleton 2 arranged. The cross-section of the skeleton 2 is an L-shaped structure. The skeleton 2 is a structure made of metal material. The skeleton 2 is used to support the main body 1 and can play a role in strengthening the overall structure of the seal ring.

[0033] Reference Figure 3, a ring-shaped dust-proof lip 121 is provided on the inner side of the inner ring 120. The dust-proof lip 121 is located at one end of the inner ring 120 within the range of the outer ring 110. When the sealing ring is installed, the inner end of the dust-proof lip 121 will abut against the surface of the component, which can prevent external dust and impurities from entering the machine interior.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 , a ring-shaped first sealing lip 122 is provided at one end of the inner side of the inner ring 120 away from the dust-proof lip 121. When the sealing ring is installed, the first sealing lip 122 will abut against the surface of the component. The cross-section of the first sealing lip 122 is a rectangular structure, which can increase the contact area between the first sealing lip 122 and the surface of the component, so that the first sealing lip 122 can better prevent the lubricating oil inside the machine from flowing out.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 , a ring-shaped first spring 3 is provided on the outer side of the inner ring 120 corresponding to the first sealing lip 122. The first spring 3 is a circular spring, that is, the cross-section of the first spring 3 is a circular structure. The first spring 3 is embedded on the outer side of the inner ring 120. The first spring 3 can tighten the inner ring 120 inward. When the first sealing lip 122 is worn, under the action of the first spring 3, the first sealing lip 122 can be tightened inward, so that the worn first sealing lip 122 continues to closely adhere to the component in the middle.

[0036] The second embodiment of a skeleton 2 oil seal sealing ring structure of the present application:

[0037] Reference Figure 4 , compared with the first embodiment, the difference in this embodiment is that: two ring-shaped second sealing lips 123 are provided at one end of the inner side of the inner ring 120 away from the dust-proof lip 121. The cross-section of the second sealing lip 123 is circular. After the sealing ring is installed, both second sealing rings are in contact with the surface of the mechanical component, which can play a dual sealing role for the internal lubricating oil, improve the sealing performance of the sealing ring, and reduce the possibility of lubricating oil leakage caused by wear of the sealing lip.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 , a ring-shaped second spring 4 is provided on the outer side of the inner ring 120 corresponding to the second sealing lip 123. The second spring 4 is a square spring, that is, the cross-section of the second spring 4 is a square structure. Setting a square spring at the same position can increase the tightening area. The second spring 4 is embedded on the outer side of the inner ring 120. The second spring 4 can tighten the inner ring 120 inward, and the second spring 4 can simultaneously tighten the two second sealing lips 123 inward, so that the worn two second sealing lips 123 continue to closely adhere to the component in the middle.

[0039] The technical solution of this application increases the axial dimension of the inner ring, making the sealing lip and the spring away from the outer ring and the skeleton, reducing the influence of the supporting force of the outer ring and the skeleton on the sealing lip, enabling the sealing lip to closely adhere to the middle component under the action of the spring, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing ring. When the sealing lip is worn, due to the increased distance between the sealing lip and the outer ring and the skeleton, the spring can better drive the sealing lip to contract inward, always ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing ring, and thus extending the service life of the sealing ring.

[0040] The above are only alternative embodiments of this application, and do not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of this application by using the content of the specification and drawings of this application, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of this application.
