[0026] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below with reference to specific illustrations.
[0027] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of the three-way labyrinth sealing roller provided by the present invention.
[0028] As can be seen from the drawings, the three-way labyrinth seal roller provided by the present invention includes seven components: a roller 100, a bearing seat 200, a bearing 300, a shaft 400, a retaining ring 500, a retaining ring 600, and a sealing assembly 700.
[0029] The bearing seat 200 is disposed inside the roller 100; the bearing 300 is disposed in the inner cavity of the bearing seat 200; and the shaft 400 is disposed in the bearing 300.
[0030] The retaining ring 500 is arranged outside the bearing seat 200 and is sleeved on the shaft 400 to limit the axial movement of the bearing 300;
[0031] The retaining ring 600 is arranged on the inner side of the bearing seat 200. By arranging the retaining ring 600, the bearing 300 and the bearing seat 200 are isolated to avoid direct contact between the bearing 300 and the bearing seat 200, thereby reducing the wear of the bearing 300 caused by the bearing seat 200.
[0032] The sealing assembly 700 is disposed between the retaining ring 500 and the bearing 300. The sealing assembly 700 includes a first static sealing ring 710, a first dynamic sealing ring 720, a second static sealing ring 730, and a second dynamic sealing ring 740, which are sequentially disposed from the retaining ring 500 to the bearing 300.
[0033] The first static sealing ring 710 and the second static sealing ring 730 are fixed to the shaft 400, the first dynamic sealing ring 720 and the second dynamic sealing ring 740 are fixed to the bearing seat 200 and rotate synchronously.

The edge 721 is an arc-shaped structure corresponding to the arc-shaped structure at the connection between the connecting ring 220 and the seating seat 210. One end surface of the edge 721 is in contact with the bearing seat 200, and the other end surface is in contact with the bottom angle of the isosceles trapezoid formed by the first static seal ring 710.

[0044] In cooperation with it, the second static seal ring 730 is provided with a plurality of annular fourth concave-convex grooves 730a on the outer side surface close to the first dynamic seal ring 720. The fourth concave-convex grooves 730a cooperate with the third concave-convex grooves 720b to form a second labyrinth seal;
