[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The water pump sealing structure comprises a gland 1, a packing packing seal assembly 2, a double skeleton oil seal assembly 3 and a liquid discharge assembly 4.

[0045] The one end of the gland 1 is connected with the shaft end 10, and the other end is connected with the bearing body 30. The rotating shaft 20 is arranged in the gland 1.

[0046] The packing packing seal assembly 2 is arranged in the gland 1 near one end of the shaft end 10 and between the gland 1 and the rotating shaft 20, and is used for sealing the liquid in the water pump cavity.

[0047] The double skeleton oil seal assembly 3 is arranged in the gland 1 near one end of the bearing body 30 and between the gland 1 and the rotating shaft 20, and is used for sealing the lubricating oil in the bearing body 30.

[0048] The drainage assembly 4 is arranged on the gland 1 and located between the packing seal assembly 2 and the double skeleton oil seal assembly 3.

[0049] The packing seal assembly 2 between the gland 1 and the shaft 20 can seal the shaft end 10, and the soft packing and the packing are used to seal the liquid in the pump body. The double skeleton oil seal assembly 3 between the gland 1 and the shaft 20 can seal the bearing body 30. The double skeleton oil seal structure can provide better sealing effect. Even if one end of the sealing structure fails, the leakage can be drained out of the gland 1 through the drainage assembly 4, so as to not affect the work of the other end. Compared with similar sealing structures, both ends can be sealed: the left end soft packing and the packing are used to seal the liquid in the pump body; and the right end double skeleton oil seal is used to seal the lubricating oil at the bearing body 30.

[0050] The water pump sealing structure provided by the embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0051] 1. Compared with similar sealing structures, both ends can be sealed. Even if one end of the sealing structure fails, the work of the other end is not affected.

[0052] 2. The two sealing structures are integrated on the gland 1, and the structure is more compact.

[0053] Further, please refer to Figure 3 The inner circumferential side of the gland 1 near the shaft end 10 forms a sealing cavity 11. The packing seal assembly 2 includes a packing group 21, a soft packing part 22 and a soft packing injection channel 23.

[0054] The packing group 21 includes a first packing 211 and a second packing 212 arranged at the two axial ends of the sealing cavity 11 respectively. The first packing 211 and the second packing 212 form the soft packing part 22 therebetween.

[0055] One end of the soft packing injection channel 23 communicates with the sealing cavity 11, and the other end communicates with the outside of the gland 1. The soft packing part 22 is formed by injecting soft packing into the sealing cavity 11 through the soft packing injection channel 23.

[0056] During assembly, the two packings can be first installed in the sealing cavity 11, and then the gland 1 is installed on the shaft 20. After the installation position is adjusted, the soft packing is injected into the sealing cavity 11 through the soft packing injection channel 23 by using a professional soft packing gun. After the sealing cavity 11 is filled, the soft packing injection channel 23 is plugged to complete the sealing. The soft packing is convenient to add, and there is no need to flush and stop for maintenance, which reduces the maintenance workload. When the leakage increases, the soft packing can be added without stopping, which avoids rapid deterioration and affects the bearing box.

[0057] Further, please continue to refer to Figure 3The oil seal mounting groove 12 is formed on the inner circumferential side of the one end of the bearing body 30 adjacent to the gland 1, and the double skeleton oil seal assembly 3 comprises an oil seal group 31, an oil return cavity 32 and an oil return channel 33.

[0059] The oil return channel 33 communicates the oil return cavity 32 and the inner cavity of the bearing body 30.

[0060] The two skeleton oil seals can be pushed into the gland 1 according to the standard installation method, so as to be installed in the oil seal mounting groove 12. When a small amount of leakage occurs, the rotating shaft 20 can throw the lubricating oil to the oil return cavity 32, and then flow back to the bearing body 30 through the oil return channel 33, so as to prevent the lubricating oil from climbing and leaking along the main shaft.

[0061] Further, please continue to refer to Figure 3 The oil return channel 33 comprises a oil throwing groove 331 arranged on the inner side wall of the oil return cavity 32, and an oil return groove 332 arranged at the bottom of the oil throwing groove 331, and the oil return groove 332 extends towards the bearing body 30.

[0062] Further, the liquid drainage assembly 4 comprises a liquid collecting cavity 41 and a liquid leakage groove 42.

[0063] The liquid collecting cavity 41 is arranged around the inner circumferential side of the gland 1, and communicates the packing seal assembly 2 and the double skeleton oil seal assembly 3.

[0064] The liquid leakage groove 42 is arranged at the bottom of the liquid collecting cavity 41 and communicates to the outside of the gland 1.

[0065] If one of the two sealing structures fails, the liquid can flow into the liquid leakage groove 42 through the liquid collecting cavity 41, and then flow out of the gland 1 from the liquid leakage groove 42, so as to avoid the deterioration of the failure caused by the accumulation of the liquid.

[0066] Further, the soft packing injection channel 23 comprises an injection hole 231, a dispersion groove 232 and a communication hole 233.

[0067] The injection hole 231 is arranged on the gland 1.

[0069] The communication groove 233 is arranged in the gland 1 and extends axially along the gland 1, and communicates the injection hole 231 and the dispersion groove 232.

[0070] The liquid injection hole 231 can be a filling screw hole, and the dispersion groove 232 can have a structure of being narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the wide lower part is smoothly connected with the inner side wall of the sealing cavity 11, so as to facilitate the uniform distribution of the soft packing in the sealing cavity 11.

[0071] Further, a plug can be detachably connected to the liquid injection hole 231, and the plug can be a threaded pipe plug.

[0072] Further, the rotating shaft 20 comprises a shaft body 201 and a shaft sleeve 202 which are sequentially sleeved from inside to outside.

[0073] Principle description:

[0074] The packing and packing ring sealing assembly 2 between the gland 1 and the rotating shaft 20 can seal the shaft end 10 of the water pump, and the sealing characteristics of the soft packing and the packing ring are used to seal the liquid in the inner cavity of the pump body, and the double skeleton oil seal assembly 3 between the gland 1 and the rotating shaft 20 can seal the bearing body 30, and the double skeleton oil seal structure makes the sealing effect better, even if the sealing structure of one end fails, the liquid leakage can also be discharged out of the gland 1 through the liquid discharge assembly 4, so as to not affect the work of the other end. Compared with similar sealing structures, both ends can be sealed: the left end soft packing and the packing ring are used to seal the liquid in the inner cavity of the pump body; and the right end two skeleton oil seals are used to seal the lubricating oil at the bearing body 30.
