[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , an embodiment provided by the utility model:

[0032] A dry gas combined sealing device, comprising:

[0033] A shaft seal 8 is provided between the sealing sleeve 1 and the shaft body 5, and between the opening at one end of the sealing sleeve 1 and the outer wall of the shaft body 5. An air pressure compartment 9 is provided between the sealing sleeve 1 and the outer wall of the shaft body 5 on one side of the shaft seal 8. A stuffing chamber 12 is provided inside the sealing sleeve 1 on one side of the air pressure compartment 9. A sealing ring 11 is provided inside the sealing sleeve 1. A housing 2 is fixedly mounted on one side of the sealing sleeve 1. An air intake pipe 4 is provided on the upper side of the outer wall of the sealing sleeve 1. An external connection hole 3 is provided on the outer surface of the housing 2, and the housing 2 is movably connected to the air intake pipe 4 through the external connection hole 3.

[0034] A discharge port 18 is provided on the lower side of the outer surface of the housing 2, a collection box 19 is provided on the lower side of the outer surface of the sealing sleeve 1, an adjusting screw 20 is rotatably mounted on the lower part of the interior of the sealing sleeve 1, a cleaning plate 22 is sleeved on the outer wall of the adjusting screw 20, a brush 21 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the cleaning plate 22, a limiting arc plate 14 is fixedly mounted above the adjusting screw 20 at the lower part of the interior of the housing 2, and a protective cover 16 is fixedly mounted on one side of the adjusting screw 20 at the lower part of the outer surface of the housing 2;

[0035] A driving mechanism is provided inside the protective cover 16 , a bearing 13 is fixedly installed inside the housing 2 , and the housing 2 is rotatably connected to the shaft 5 via the bearing 13 .

[0036] A symmetrically distributed slide plate 7 is fixedly mounted on the top of the collecting box 19 , and a symmetrically distributed slideway 6 is provided below the outer surface of the housing 2 , and the slideway 6 is slidably connected to the slide plate 7 .

[0037] In one embodiment, the driving mechanism includes a motor 15, and the motor 15 is fixedly installed inside the protective cover 16. The driving end of the motor 15 passes through the outer shell 2 and extends to the interior of the outer shell 2 and is fixedly connected to one end of the adjusting screw 20. A microprocessor 17 is fixedly installed inside the protective cover 16.

[0038] In one of the preferred embodiments, the cleaning plate 22 is shaped like an arc-shaped plate structure, and the inner wall of the cleaning plate 22 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the sealing sleeve 1, so that the debris falling on the top of the cleaning plate 22 is directly pushed down by the sliding contact with the sealing sleeve 1, thereby avoiding the accumulation and residue of debris on the top of the cleaning plate 22.

[0039] In one embodiment, a pressure sensor 10 is fixedly installed inside the air pressure compartment 9. Through continuous pressure monitoring, equipment failure or sealing failure caused by abnormal air pressure can be prevented, reducing unexpected downtime and maintenance costs.

[0040] In one of the preferred embodiments, a threaded hole that is compatible with the adjusting screw 20 is provided on the cleaning plate 22, and the cleaning plate 22 is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 20 through the threaded hole provided thereon. A sliding hole that is compatible with the limiting arc plate 14 is provided on the cleaning plate 22, and the cleaning plate 22 is slidingly connected to the limiting arc plate 14 through the sliding hole provided thereon, thereby realizing stable lateral movement of the cleaning plate 22. At the same time, the limiting arc plate 14 can guide and block falling debris above the adjusting screw 20, preventing debris from falling on the outer wall of the adjusting screw 20 and affecting the normal use of the adjusting screw 20.

[0041] In one embodiment, the sealing sleeve 1 is an integrally formed structure.

[0042] In one of the preferred embodiments, a visual transparent glass is fixedly embedded on the front of the collection box 19, the shape of the slide plate 7 is a T-shaped structure, and the slide plate 7 is adapted to the slide 6. The use of the visual transparent glass enables the amount of debris to be monitored in real time, so that it can be cleaned in time, avoiding equipment operation problems caused by excessive debris, and improving the overall operation efficiency and safety of the equipment.

[0043] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: All electrical components in the present invention are powered and operated by an external power supply and a control switch, wherein the motor 15 is electrically connected to the microprocessor 17 via a wire. Parts not described in detail follow the existing technology or are implemented through the existing technology. When in use, the sealing sleeve 1 is directly mounted on the shaft body 5, and the airtightness of the contact surface between the sealing sleeve 1 and the shaft body 5 is ensured by the shaft seal 8. The sealing ring 11 is embedded in the sealing sleeve 1, and the self-lubricating graphite-based sealing filler is fully filled into the filler cavity 12. The outer shell 2 is fixed to one side of the sealing sleeve 1, and the air intake pipe 4 extends to the outside of the device through the external connection hole 3 on the outer shell 2.

The microprocessor 17 controls the start of the motor 15 at a fixed time, and the driving end of the motor 15 drives the adjusting screw 20 to rotate. By adjusting the threaded transmission of the screw 20 and the cleaning plate 22, and the sliding cooperation between the cleaning plate 22 and the limiting arc plate 14, the cleaning plate 22 achieves stable lateral movement, thereby driving the brush 21 to clean the lower area inside the shell 2. The cleaned debris enters the collection box 19 through the discharge port 18 for storage. The staff can observe the amount of internal debris through the visual glass on the collection box 19. After reaching a certain amount, pull the collection box 19 so that it passes through the sliding design of the top slide 7 and the slide 6 and is pulled out from the lower side of the outer wall of the shell 2, completing the disassembly of the collection box 19 and pouring out the internal waste debris. The collection box 19 is reinstalled by sliding and plugging. The whole process is simple and quick. The device can automatically clean the debris inside the shell 2, reducing the need for manual regular disassembly and cleaning. At the same time, it simplifies the disassembly process of the collection box 19, improves maintenance efficiency, and has significant practical value.

[0044] It should be noted that the operating principle of the sealing sleeve 1 in the dry gas combined sealing device of the present invention is consistent with that of a combined sealing device in the prior art, as disclosed in Publication No. CN218992353U. The innovation of the present invention primarily addresses the inconvenience of handling wear debris that falls into the existing sealing device.
