Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of shaft sealing, in particular to a driving shaft multiple sealing structure and a feeder. Background Art
[0002] Existing drive shaft sealing structures typically form a dynamic seal between the drive shaft and the rotating element. Because dynamic seals rely primarily on friction to achieve sealing, over long-term operation, friction and temperature fluctuations can cause seal components to wear or age, leading to a decrease in sealing effectiveness and leakage. This not only causes material loss but can also pollute the surrounding environment.
[0003] For example, existing homogeneous disc feeders have the advantages of uniform material discharge, wide material adaptability, first-in-first-out material, stable and reliable operation, and the ability to reduce the height of the silo. They are widely used in various fields. However, existing homogeneous disc feeders still have some problems in the sealing design of the drive shaft. Specifically, dynamic sealing structures are usually adopted in the existing technology, and this sealing method has certain limitations: on the one hand, the sealing effect of dynamic seals is relatively poor, and leakage is prone to occur, resulting in material loss or environmental pollution; on the other hand, loose sealing may cause leakage of lubricating oil or other liquids inside the equipment, increasing the maintenance cost and failure risk of the equipment; in addition, incomplete sealing may also affect the operating stability and service life of the equipment.

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0023] like Figure 1 The figure shows a feeder comprising a frame 1 and a barrel 3 for holding material. The barrel 3 is connected to the silo via an upper flange 2. The frame is provided with a drive base 4, supported by a drive motor 5. The drive motor is connected to a turntable 7 via a drive shaft 6. A chassis 8 is provided below the turntable, passing through the drive shaft 6 and fixed to the frame 1. The chassis 8 is provided with a discharge port 81. The turntable 7 includes a support base 71 connected to the drive shaft 6 and a disc body 72 connected to the support base. The support base 71 of the turntable is provided with a broken arch 73. The support base 71 and the broken arch 73 extend into the barrel 3. When the drive motor 5 drives the drive shaft 6 to drive the turntable 7 to rotate, the material in the barrel 3 flows evenly and smoothly around the turntable 7 and is discharged through the discharge port 81 via the turntable 7.
[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown: In order to ensure the sealing of the equipment, especially the dynamic seal at the drive shaft, this embodiment is designed with multiple seals. Specifically:
[0025] A first dynamic seal 101 is installed between the support base 71 of the turntable 7 and the chassis 8, serving as the first dynamic seal. The upper surface of the chassis 8 is provided with at least one annular groove, within which a resilient cushion 106 is positioned. The cushion 106 is positioned below the first dynamic seal 101, with its lower end positioned within the groove. The cushion 106 has a certain degree of compression, ensuring close contact between the first dynamic seal 101 and the support base 71 of the turntable 7, ensuring a tight seal.
[0026] A second dynamic seal 102 is provided between the outer periphery of the drive shaft 6 and the support seat 71 of the turntable 7, serving as a second dynamic seal. In this embodiment, the second dynamic seal 102 can be circumferentially arranged in the groove on the inner wall of the support seat 71 of the turntable 7, and sealed to the drive shaft 6. An airtight sealing cavity 9 can also be further provided on the outer periphery of the drive shaft 6 to strengthen the seal. Preferably, an airtight sealing cavity 9 is provided between the chassis 8, the turntable 7 and the drive shaft 6 of this embodiment; the airtight sealing cavity 9 is a structure surrounded by an outer shell 91 and having an airtight path 93 formed inside. The outer shell 91 of the airtight sealing cavity 9 is fixed to the frame 1, and the outer shell 91 of the airtight sealing cavity 9 is clamped with the inner wall of the chassis 8. The upper part of the outer shell 91 extends out of the chassis 8 and is located between the drive shaft 6 and the lower concave cavity of the support seat 71. Gaps are provided between the airtight chamber 9 and the support base 71 of the drive shaft 6 and the turntable 7, forming an airtight path 93. An air inlet 92, communicating with the outside world, is provided at the bottom of the airtight chamber 9 for inputting compressed gas. The gap between the support base 71 and the chassis 8 forms an exhaust passage 94. The principle is as follows: compressed gas first enters the gap between the airtight chamber 9 and the drive shaft 6 through the air inlet 92, then enters the gap between the airtight chamber 9 and the support base 71, thereby flowing along the airtight path 93 formed by these gaps, and finally is discharged through the exhaust passage 94 between the support base 71 and the chassis 8, entering the cylinder 3. Among them, the first dynamic seal 101 is provided on the exhaust channel 94 between the support seat 71 and the chassis 8, and a certain gap is left between the exhaust channel 94 to facilitate the discharge of compressed gas. The second dynamic seal 102 is provided between the support seat 71 and the outer shell 91 of the airtight chamber 9. The lower portion of the inner wall of the support seat 71 forms a stepped structure, that is, the lower concave cavity of the support seat first accommodates the drive shaft 6 and the upper portion of the outer shell 91 of the airtight chamber 9, and then a groove is further formed on the inner wall along the lower concave cavity of the support seat 71 to accommodate the second dynamic seal 102. A gap is provided between the second dynamic seal 102 and the outer shell 91 of the airtight chamber 9 to facilitate the discharge of compressed gas.
[0027] A third dynamic seal 103 is installed between the drive shaft 6 and the underside of the chassis 8, serving as a third dynamic seal. Located below the airtight seal cavity 9 and circumferentially arranged around the drive shaft 6, this seal prevents external air from entering the chassis 8 from this location. It is understood that this seal can be equipped with a cooling device and a compression mechanism to optimize the sealing effect. For example, a compression bolt can be provided to tightly press the third dynamic seal 103 between the drive shaft 6 and the chassis 8.
[0028] It is understandable that each dynamic seal is preferably a sealing ring, and the material can be selected from wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant materials to adapt to the sealing of various materials.
[0029] In the embodiment, the cavity in the three dynamic seals is under positive pressure due to the blocking of the first dynamic seal 101 and the second dynamic seal 102, which can effectively prevent the material from entering the sealing cavity, ensure the reliability and sealing effect of the shaft seal, and reduce the damage and operation failure of the equipment caused by material leakage.
[0030] In the embodiment, the end surface of the drive shaft 6 and the support seat 71 of the rotating disc are provided with the first static seal 104. Specifically, a groove for placing the first static seal 104 is arranged on the end surface of the drive shaft 6, and the first static seal 104 is preferably an O-ring and is sealingly connected with the lower cavity of the support seat 71.
[0031] In the embodiment, the gas sealing cavity 9 and the bottom disc 8 are provided with the second static seal 105. Specifically, the second static seal 105 is arranged at the clamping position of the gas sealing cavity 9 and the bottom disc 8, and the second static seal 105 is preferably an O-ring.
[0032] The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:
[0033] The first dynamic seal 101 is arranged between the rotating disc 7 and the bottom disc 8 to form a sealing interface, and the sealing interface is distributed in the circumferential direction. The bottom disc 8 is provided with an elastic soft pad 106 having a compression amount. During the contact with the support seat 71 of the rotating disc 7, the elastic soft pad 106 can be compressed according to the pressure to further enhance the sealing effect. When the rotating disc 7 rotates, the first dynamic seal ensures that the material in the cylinder 3 cannot enter the sealing cavity. The second dynamic seal 102 is arranged to isolate the rotating part of the rotating disc 7 from the gas sealing cavity 9, and the gas sealing cavity 9 is further isolated from the drive shaft 6, while maintaining the positive pressure state in the gas sealing cavity 9. The second dynamic seal 102 can prevent the material or other impurities from entering the gas sealing cavity 9, effectively maintain the efficient operation of the equipment, and greatly reduce the environmental pollution. The third dynamic seal 103 is arranged to further enhance the sealing effect of the drive shaft 6, prevent any possible external pollutants from entering the sealing cavity, especially at the contact position of the drive shaft 6 and the bottom disc 8. Moreover, the internal pressure of the gas sealing cavity 9 can be effectively maintained through the third dynamic seal 103, which further ensures the uniform flow of the material in the cylinder 3 and prevents any external material or material leakage from affecting the normal operation of the equipment.
[0034] In addition, by setting the first static seal 104, leakage between the drive shaft 6 and the rotating disc 7 can be prevented. The first static seal 104 is placed in the groove of the end surface of the drive shaft 6, and is in contact with the support seat 71 of the rotating disc 7 through its elasticity, forming a sealing interface. When the device is running, the first static seal 104 is deformed under pressure, and can fill the gap between the drive shaft 6 and the support seat 71, effectively preventing the material and external contaminants from entering the sealed cavity; by setting the second static seal 105, external impurities or contaminants can be further prevented from entering the gas seal cavity 9. At the contact position of the gas seal cavity 9 and the bottom disc 8, the second static seal 105 is tightly attached to the contact surface between the gas seal cavity 9 and the bottom disc 8 through its elastic deformation, blocking the gas from leaking outward, ensuring that the pressure in the gas seal cavity 9 is not affected, and maintaining the gas tightness.
[0035] It can be understood that the drive shaft multiple sealing structure of the embodiment can also be used in other devices, such as pumps, mixers, etc.
[0036] In summary, the multi-layer sealing structure can effectively ensure the reliability of the device sealing, reduce environmental pollution, and the entire sealing structure can withstand high temperature, adapt to various working conditions, and has remarkable sealing effect.
