Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a conveying device, in particular to a spiral conveying device for powdery materials. Background Art

[0002] Screw conveyor is one of the preferred equipment for conveying powdered materials. The powdered materials are pushed in the closed casing by the conveying screw during the conveying process from the feed port to the discharge port of the conveyor, which can effectively prevent the leakage of powdered materials and avoid possible dust pollution and harm to operators. However, the conveying screw shaft of the screw conveyor must rotate relative to the casing. There will inevitably be a radial gap where the conveying screw extends out of the casing. This will be the part where the conveyed powdered materials may leak from the screw conveyor. Therefore, a sealing device needs to be installed between the conveying screw and the casing. However, for powdered materials, conventional sealing devices are difficult to maintain sealing reliability and a long service life of the seals due to the grinding effect of dust on the sealing elements. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a sealed and leak-free screw conveyor, which can prevent the conveyed powdered materials from entering the sealing device as much as possible and improve the service life of the conveyor sealing device.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a sealed leak-free screw conveyor, comprising a conveying screw shaft and a conveyor housing connected to a driving device, wherein the conveying screw shaft is rotatably supported on conveying brackets at both ends, and the conveyor housing is fixedly supported on the conveying brackets through end covers at both ends, and a sealing device is provided between the end covers and the conveying screw shaft, the sealing device comprising a sealing seat body, the sealing seat body being fixedly connected to the end covers, and at least one inner sealing packing and several outer sealing packings being installed in the annular cavity between the inner hole of the sealing seat body and the conveying screw shaft A sealing packing, an air sealing ring is provided between the inner sealing packing and the outer sealing packing, an air sealing ring groove is provided on the inner wall of the air sealing ring, the air sealing ring groove is connected with the vent joint hole on the sealing seat body through the air inlet hole on the air sealing ring wall, an elastic sealing wing ring is embedded in the air sealing ring groove, the elastic sealing wing ring is located between one end of the air sealing ring that fits the inner sealing packing and the air inlet hole, at least one annular sealing wing is provided on the inner wall of the elastic sealing wing ring, the inner edge of the annular sealing wing is elastically fitted with the conveying spiral shaft and is oblique to the end where the inner sealing packing is located.

[0005] After adopting the above technical scheme, the air-sealing ring provided between the inner sealing packing and the outer sealing packing in the sealing device can be connected with an external air pressure source, and the gas with a certain pressure enters the annular cavity between the air-sealing ring groove and the conveying spiral shaft, forming a relatively high pressure on the conveyed material in the conveyor casing, and preventing the conveyed powdered material from entering the sealing device through the radial gap between the conveying spiral and the inner sealing packing. The elastic sealing wing ring embedded in the air-sealing ring groove forms a one-way channel between the left and right sides of the annular sealing wing through the annular sealing wing on it that elastically fits the conveying spiral shaft and is inclined to the end where the inner sealing packing is located. When the pressure on both sides of the annular sealing wing is equal, the inner ring of the annular sealing wing will rely on its own elasticity to fit on the conveying spiral shaft, making it impossible for the left and right sides to communicate, and the conveyed Even if the powdered material enters the area where the elastic sealing wing ring is located from the inner sealing packing, it will no longer enter the air-sealing ring groove on the side where the air inlet hole is located. When the air pressure on the side where the air inlet hole is located is greater than the pressure on the other side of the annular sealing wing, the pressure difference will cause the annular sealing wing to overcome its own elastic force and break away from the fitting state with the conveying spiral shaft. The gas enters the other side of the annular sealing wing through the gap between the annular sealing wing and the conveying spiral shaft until the pressure on the left and right sides of the annular sealing wing is balanced, and the inner ring of the annular sealing wing is re-fitted with the conveying spiral shaft. In this process, the powdered material cannot leak outward against the airflow, thereby avoiding the powdered material being conveyed from entering the sealing device and leaking outward. As long as the air-sealing ring groove is connected to the air pressure source, the good sealing performance can be maintained, thereby improving the service life of the conveyor sealing device.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, two inner sealing packings and five outer sealing packings are installed in the annular cavity between the inner hole of the sealing seat and the conveying screw shaft. With this embodiment, the two inner sealing packings can maximize the sealing function of the sealing packing, while the five outer sealing packings can better prevent the leakage of powdered materials.

[0007] Another preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a circumferential groove formed on the outer periphery of the gas seal ring. Three to eight air inlet holes are evenly distributed along the circumference of the gas seal ring wall within the circumferential groove, and a venting connection hole is provided on the seal seat. This embodiment allows gas at a certain pressure to enter the gas seal ring groove more smoothly and evenly.

[0008] Another preferred embodiment of the present invention is to provide two annular sealing wings on the inner wall of the elastic sealing wing ring. In this embodiment, the two annular sealing wings will form two one-way channels, resulting in a better sealing effect.

[0009] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the elastic sealing wing ring is a wear-resistant rubber product. With this embodiment, the wear-resistant rubber product has the required elasticity and also has certain wear resistance, which can meet the use requirements of the elastic sealing wing ring.

[0010] In another further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an outer elastic sealing wing ring is further embedded in the air-sealing ring groove. The outer elastic sealing wing ring is located between one end of the air-sealing ring that is in contact with the outer sealing packing and the air inlet. At least one annular sealing wing is provided on the inner wall of the outer elastic sealing wing ring. The inner edge of the annular sealing wing is elastically in contact with the conveying screw shaft and is obliquely disposed toward the end where the inner sealing packing is located. With this embodiment, the inner edge of the annular sealing wing provided on the inner wall of the outer elastic sealing wing ring, which is obliquely disposed toward the end where the inner sealing packing is located and is elastically in contact with the conveying screw shaft, will continue to maintain contact with the conveying screw shaft under the action of the air pressure in the air-sealing ring groove, thereby preventing the powdered material being conveyed from further leaking outward if it is possible to enter the air-sealing ring groove, thereby providing an additional safeguard for the sealed and leak-free conveying of the powdered material being conveyed.

[0011] In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, an annular sealing wing is provided on the inner wall of the outer elastic sealing wing ring. In this embodiment, an annular sealing wing is provided on the inner wall of the outer elastic sealing wing ring to prevent leakage of powdered materials.

[0012] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outer elastic sealing wing ring is a wear-resistant rubber product. With this embodiment, the wear-resistant rubber product has the required elasticity and a certain wear resistance, which can meet the use requirements of the outer elastic sealing wing ring.
