[0045] Preferably, the oil-gas separation device consists of two parts: an oil discharge chamber 9 and a separation device. The oil discharge chamber 9 is located inside the barrel body 8, specifically above the base 11, below the partition 4, and outside the circle 7.

[0046] Preferably, the separation device includes a cylinder 7 located inside the barrel 8 and welded to the lower surface of the partition 4 at its top. The cylinder 7 is a welded steel pipe.

[0047] Preferably, the flange of the oil-gas separator filter element 5 is placed on the partition plate 4, and a pressure plate 3 is provided on the partition plate 4. The pressure plate 3 is placed on the flange of the oil-gas separator filter element 5, and the pressure plate 3 and the oil-gas separator filter element 5 are fixed on the partition plate 4 by bolts.

[0048] Preferably, the partition 4 has a circular hole in the center, and the upper surface of the partition 4 has a ring of evenly distributed threaded holes, wherein the threaded holes are not through; the pressure plate 3 has a ring of evenly distributed through holes, and the pressure plate 3 has a pressure plate through hole 13 in the center.

[0049] Preferably, the sealed barrel includes a cap 1, a cap flange 2, a barrel body 8, and a base 11. The cap 1 has a ring of evenly distributed through holes.

The separated gas is discharged from the vacuum machine, which greatly improves the utilization rate of lubricating oil, saves costs, and helps ensure the stable and reliable operation of the oil screw vacuum machine.
