Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of turbine mechanical seals, in particular to a double-end face brush-type-labyrinth combined seal structure. Background Art
[0002] Sealing technology is a key factor influencing turbine performance and lifespan, directly impacting machine efficiency and fuel consumption. Turbines such as aircraft engines and gas turbines typically contain over 50 seals, primarily located between compressor stages, between the turbine's stator and rotor, and between bearing cavities and fan blades. These seals prevent and minimize fluid leakage.
[0003] The dynamic seals used in turbine machinery include: non-contact labyrinth seals, graphite circumferential seals, floating ring seals and air film seals, but they all have certain defects: although the non-contact labyrinth seal has a simple structure and low cost, it will cause wear due to the contact between the grate teeth and the bushing, increasing leakage; the floating ring seal relies on the oil film generated between the high-speed rotating floating ring and the shaft to seal. When the operating environment fluctuates greatly, it will affect the oil film formation, resulting in seal failure; the graphite circumferential seal has a certain ability to withstand large radial runout and angular deviation, but can only withstand a runout of no more than 1mm, which is difficult to meet new design requirements; although the end face air film seal technology can complete its work under high friction linear speed and high temperature and high pressure conditions, when the rotor vibrates or deforms, the displacement of the sealing surface is much higher than the air film thickness, which greatly affects the sealing effect.
[0004] To this end, we proposed a double-end brush-labyrinth combined sealing structure to solve the problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a double-end face brush-labyrinth combined sealing structure, which solves the problems in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0010] The double-end face brush seal ring includes: a first brush bundle, a front baffle, a first fusion welding area, a middle baffle, a second fusion welding area, a rear baffle, and a second brush bundle;
[0011] The labyrinth sealing ring is arranged on the back of the double-end brush sealing ring. An O-ring is arranged between the labyrinth sealing ring and the sealing seat, and is fixed to the housing through a retaining ring. The housing is connected to the sealing seat through screws.
[0012] Preferably, one end of the first brush bundle and the second brush bundle is a free end, and is sealed and mounted on a sprayed surface on the shaft sleeve, and the sprayed surface is perpendicular to the rotor.
