Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sealing end caps, specifically a bearing sealing end cap. Background Technology

[0002] Bearing end caps are important mechanical parts, usually made of cast iron. Their main function is axial positioning of the bearing, ensuring the stability of the bearing outer ring in the axial direction. They also serve as dustproof and sealing devices, preventing dust and impurities from entering the bearing. Bearing end caps are divided into closed caps and open caps. Open caps have a circular hole in the center through which the shaft passes. To avoid friction between the shaft and the open cap during rotation, the diameter of the hole is larger than the diameter of the shaft. This allows moisture to enter the housing through the gap between the hole and the shaft, contacting the bearing and corroding it, thus affecting its performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a bearing sealing end cap to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art.

[0004] A bearing sealing end cap according to this utility model includes a cover body, a water-retaining ring, and a collar. The cover body is fixed to the end face of the housing by bolts. A circular protrusion is fixed on the end face of the cover body near the housing, and the circular protrusion abuts against the outer ring of the bearing. The collar is disposed on the side of the cover body near the outer ring of the bearing and is sleeved on the journal of the shaft. A through hole is opened at the center of the cover body, and the diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the journal of the shaft. The water-retaining ring is disposed between the collar and the cover body and is fixed on the collar. A grease reservoir is formed between the water-retaining ring and the cover body, and the grease reservoir is filled with lubricating grease.

[0005] Through the above technical solution, the annular protrusion on the cover is used to support and fix the outer ring of the bearing, the water-blocking ring is used to block the through hole on the cover, and the grease in the grease reservoir can prevent water from passing through, thereby preventing water from corroding the bearing.

[0006] Preferably, the end face of the cover near the collar has an annular groove located outside the through hole and communicating with the through hole. The water-blocking ring is embedded in the groove. A gap of 1mm-2mm is formed between the outer periphery of the water-blocking ring and the side wall of the annular groove. The part of the end face of the water-blocking ring away from the outer ring of the bearing that is close to the through hole forms a gap of 1mm-2mm with the part of the bottom wall of the annular groove that is close to the through hole. The grease storage interval is located between the two gaps.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, the two gaps can reduce grease leakage in the grease reservoir and prevent the water-blocking ring from rubbing against the cover when it rotates with the shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the end face of the water-blocking ring away from the collar is wavy, and the bottom wall of the annular groove on the cover is wavy, so that the grease reservoir formed between the water-blocking ring and the cover is wavy, and the width of the grease reservoir is 2mm-4mm.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the wavy grease reservoir can store more grease while increasing the moisture barrier.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting ring is fixedly provided on the end face of the collar near the water-blocking ring, and an annular groove is formed on the end face of the water-blocking ring near the collar, with the connecting ring fixed in the annular groove.

[0011] The above technical solution increases the connection strength between the water-blocking ring and the collar.

[0012] Preferably, an extension ring is fixed on the outer periphery of the water-blocking ring, and a gap is formed between the extension ring and the cover body near the outer ring of the bearing.

[0013] Through the above technical solutions, the extension ring can further reduce grease leakage within the grease reservoir.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the annular protrusion on the cover is used to support and fix the outer ring of the bearing; the water-blocking ring is used to block the through hole on the cover; the grease in the grease reservoir can prevent water from passing through, thereby preventing water from corroding the bearing; the wavy grease reservoir can store more grease and at the same time increase the water isolation capability.
