Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a rotary joint, in particular to a low-speed rotary joint. Background Art
[0002] A low-speed, small rotary joint is a special type of joint required for small magnetic grinders. Currently, this type of joint consists of three main parts: a housing, a rotating shaft, and a sealing structure. During operation, cutting fluid enters through the oil passage hole in the housing and is output from the rotating shaft to the tool's water jet through the sealing structure. Due to the limited space available for this type of joint in small magnetic grinders, the size of the rotary joint is generally required to be within 30mm in diameter. However, most of these rotary joints currently on the market use mechanical seals (end face seals), which require extremely high sealing surface precision and are difficult to achieve zero leakage. A return pipe connection is usually required for water return, making the rotary joint's size difficult to meet installation requirements. Summary of the Invention
