Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to propeller shaft sealing protection technical field, concretely is a propeller shaft sealing protection structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] Propeller shaft sealing is an important component of shafting device, and the propeller shaft sealing function is to prevent the leakage of gear box oil, and prevent seawater from entering the ship cavity through the gear box to cause serious safety hazards due to oil deterioration, so it is very important to maintain the normal function of the propeller shaft sealing. Since the propeller shaft sealing is arranged at the rear end of the propeller hub, this part of the area is submerged in seawater all year round, and the environment in seawater is complex, with many sundries and hard objects such as fishing nets and gravel. In order to protect the rear shaft seal from being damaged by external sundries and the like, a protective cover is usually provided outside the rear shaft seal. With such a protective cover, the rear shaft seal can be protected from being damaged by external hard objects.

[0003] The common installation form of the protective cover is to be directly welded on the gear box structure, and there are two cases as follows: one is that the protective cover is directly positioned and welded on the rear end surface of the gear box by the bow end, and this installation form is very difficult to position in actual installation due to the large size and heavy weight of the protective cover, and the position needs to be adjusted constantly, and the gear box end surface area needs to be sufficient to ensure that the protective cover can be adjusted.

[0004] Two is that the protective cover is directly positioned and welded on the outer circular structure of the gear box by the front end of the gear box, and this installation form must require that the installation center line of the gear box is close to the center of the outer circular structure of the gear box, otherwise the installation will be misaligned. In the actual axis positioning process, it is common that the center line of the gear box axis is far away from the center of the gear box. In this case, when the protective cover is installed, a part of the protective cover is away from the outer circular structure of the gear box, and cannot be welded.

[0005] At the same time, when the protective cover is welded on the gear box, the welding operation will cause the paint on the inside of the protective cover to be damaged. Since the protective cover is a whole circular ring after welding, and only two observation openings are reserved on the protective cover, there is not enough space to repair or paint the damaged paint on the protective cover. Since the protective cover is submerged in seawater all year round, the damaged paint area will accelerate the corrosion of the protective cover.

[0006] In view of the above problems, it is urgent to design a propeller shaft sealing protection structure to solve the problem that the protective cover is directly welded on the gear box, causing the paint on the inside of the protective cover to be damaged. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
