[0026] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The embodiment of the present invention provides a turntable sealing structure, including a body 100, a shaft core 200 and a turntable 300. The shaft core 200 is installed on the body 100 through a bearing 400. The turntable 300 is arranged at the end of the shaft core 200. The turntable 300 and the shaft core 200 form a rotating body that can rotate around the axis of the shaft core 200. The rotating body can rotate around the axis under the drive of the driving component to realize the turntable function. A contact sealing structure is provided between the rotating body and the body 100 on the outside of the bearing 400. The contact The sealing structure includes a first sealing ring 500 arranged on the rotating body and a sealing ring 600 arranged on the body 100. The first sealing ring 500 extends from a first end 501 to a second end 502 along the axial direction of the shaft core 200. The first sealing ring 500 has a certain length in the axial direction and a certain thickness in the radial direction. The first end 501 of the first sealing ring 500 is connected to the rotating body, and the second end 502 forms a free end that can produce centrifugal deformation. The sealing ring 600 is provided with an axial friction end face 601 that contacts and cooperates with the second end 502.

[0027] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 In the technical solution of the present invention, the first sealing ring 500 and the sealing ring 600 cooperate with each other to form a contact seal on the outer side of the bearing 400 to prevent foreign matter from entering. The first end 501 of the first sealing ring 500 is connected to the rotating body, and the first sealing ring 500 and the rotating body can rotate together during operation. The second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 is a free end, which can produce centrifugal deformation during the rotation of the rotating body, thereby reducing the pressure on the axial friction end surface 601 of the sealing ring 600 and further reducing the friction between the sealing ring 600 and the sealing ring 600. When the first sealing ring 500 rotates at high speed, it can generate different centrifugal forces due to the different rotation speeds of the turntable. Therefore, the pressure of the first sealing ring 500 on the axial friction end surface 601 will also decrease with the increase of the rotation speed.

[0028] The technical solution of the utility model can change the pressure between the first sealing ring 500 and the sealing ring 600 according to the rotation speed of the rotating body. As a result, at high speeds, the centrifugal force increases, the pressure between the first sealing ring 500 and the axial friction end surface 601 decreases, and frictional heat generation is reduced. At low speeds, the centrifugal force decreases, the pressure between the first sealing ring 500 and the axial friction end surface 601 increases, and the sealing reliability is improved. In other words, the advantages of low frictional heat generation at high speeds and high sealing reliability at low speeds are achieved.

[0029] In some embodiments, see Figure 2The second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 has a V-shaped end surface 503 extending in the circumferential direction. The second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 protrudes toward the axial friction end surface 601 to form a V-shaped end surface 503. The V-shaped end surface 503 is used to contact and cooperate with the axial friction end surface 601. In this embodiment, by setting the second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 as the V-shaped end surface 503, when the speed is low, the tip edge of the V-shaped end surface 503 contacts and cooperates with the axial friction end surface 601. When the speed is high, the second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 is centrifugally deformed and expanded outward. The tip edge of the V-shaped end surface 503 is radially outward, and the tip slope of the V-shaped end surface 503 contacts and cooperates with the axial friction end surface 601. In this embodiment, with the help of the V-shaped end surface 503 of the second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500, the pressure on the axial friction end surface 601 can be better reduced after the second end 502 of the first sealing ring 500 is centrifugally deformed, thereby more significantly reducing frictional heat generation.

[0030] The first sealing ring 500 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber rings to meet the technical requirements of centrifugal deformation and elastic contact sealing.

[0031] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The sealing ring 600 is provided with a cooling cavity 602 on the inner side of the axial friction end surface 601, and the machine body 100 is provided with a cooling medium flow channel 603 communicating with the cooling cavity 602. A cooling medium such as water enters the cooling cavity 602 through the cooling medium flow channel 603 to forcibly cool the axial friction end surface 601. The forced cooling structure controls the temperature of the axial friction end surface 601, thereby protecting the life of the first sealing ring 500 and the axial friction end surface 601 and reducing the adverse effects of frictional heat on processing.

[0032] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The sealing ring 600 can be made of a hard material with good thermal conductivity, such as metal. The sealing ring 600 is arranged at the end of the body 100. A second sealing ring 101 is provided between the sealing ring 600 and the body 100 to block external foreign matter.

[0033] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 、 Figure 3 A labyrinth seal structure 604 is formed between the sealing ring 600 and the rotating disk 300. This labyrinth seal structure 604 is located outside the first sealing ring 500. This structure largely blocks external foreign matter. This embodiment utilizes the labyrinth seal structure 604 and the contact seal structure to create a dual seal, effectively enhancing the sealing performance of the turntable.

[0034] In some embodiments, see Figure 3The sealing ring 600 forms a water collection area 605 outside the first sealing ring 500. The sealing ring 600 and / or the housing 100 are provided with a drainage channel 606. The drainage channel 606 forms a drainage inlet 607 in the water collection area 605, and the housing 100 forms a drainage outlet 608. The drainage inlet 607 is higher than the drainage outlet 608. Internally accumulated water is automatically guided by gravity through the drainage inlet 607 and discharged to the drainage outlet 608. This prevents water accumulation in the first sealing ring 500 and drains water that has entered due to front-end seal failure, further ensuring sealing reliability across the entire speed range, from high to low speeds.

[0035] Further, see Figure 3 The drainage channel 606 includes several radial holes and several axial holes, which are connected in sequence to form the drainage channel 606. In this embodiment, a bending structure is formed by setting the drainage channel 606 as several radial holes and axial holes to prevent foreign matter from entering during discharge.

[0036] An embodiment of the present utility model further provides a turntable, comprising the turntable sealing structure in any of the above embodiments.

[0037] An embodiment of the present utility model further provides a machine tool, comprising the turntable in any one of the above embodiments.

In this specification, schematic representations of these terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example.
