Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-speed, high-pressure water- or oil-injected screw compressor technology, and in particular to a dry friction mechanical seal device. Background Technology

[0002] High-speed, high-pressure water-jet or oil-jet screw compressors are widely used in gas compression and transportation in fields such as oil and gas transportation, petrochemicals, marine drilling, and aerospace.

[0003] Currently, the seals of high-speed, high-pressure water-injection or oil-injection screw compressors generally use carbon graphite floating ring seals or traditional dry gas seals. Both of these seal types require high-pressure nitrogen as the sealing gas to prevent leakage of the medium gas, and require a nitrogen control system. This not only results in high cost and complex maintenance, but also a large amount of nitrogen leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is that in the prior art, high-speed high-pressure water-jet or oil-jet screw compressors usually use carbon graphite floating ring seals or dry gas seals. These sealing methods rely on high-pressure nitrogen to prevent leakage of the medium gas, and require a nitrogen control system, which leads to the disadvantages of high cost, complex maintenance and large nitrogen leakage. Therefore, we propose a dry friction mechanical seal device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: a dry friction mechanical seal device, including a bearing housing, a bearing component installed inside the bearing housing, a compressor sealing cavity provided on one side of the bearing housing, a mechanical seal cover installed inside the compressor sealing cavity, two connecting screws threaded to one side of the mechanical seal cover, a dry friction mechanical seal stationary ring fixedly connected to one side of the mechanical seal cover, a mechanical seal bushing installed inside the compressor sealing cavity, a dry friction mechanical seal dynamic ring assembly fixedly connected to the surface of the mechanical seal bushing, a compressor rotor shaft installed inside the compressor sealing cavity, bushing rubber sealing rings installed at both ends of the bearing component and the compressor rotor shaft, and a dry friction mechanical seal dynamic ring body installed inside the compressor sealing cavity.

[0006] Preferably, the compressor sealing cavity has a cooling water circulation hole inside, and the surface of the mechanical seal cover is equipped with a first rubber ring and a second rubber ring.

[0007] Preferably, a special curved spiral groove is provided on the outer diameter circumference of the sealing surface of the dynamic ring body of the dry friction mechanical seal, and a special curved spiral groove is provided on the inner diameter circumference of the dynamic ring body of the dry friction mechanical seal.

[0008] Preferably, the dry friction mechanical seal dynamic ring assembly and the mechanical seal bushing are sealed by a PTFE wedge ring.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the bearing housing is provided with an oil circulation hole, and the interior of the compressor sealing cavity is provided with a cooling water circulation hole.

[0010] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] In this invention, the dry friction mechanical seal is installed in the sealing cavity of a high-speed, high-pressure water- or oil-injected screw compressor. It is fixed to the mechanical seal cover by connecting screws. The stationary ring of the dry friction mechanical seal is fixed inside the mechanical seal cover, and the rotating ring assembly of the dry friction mechanical seal is fixed to the mechanical seal bushing. The mechanical seal bushing is pressed together by the compressor rotor shaft and bearing components at both ends, thereby realizing that the rotating ring assembly of the dry friction mechanical seal, the mechanical seal bushing, and the compressor rotor shaft rotate synchronously at high speed. At the same time, the circulating oil in the oil circulation hole cools and lubricates the mechanical seal and bearing components, and the circulating water in the cooling water circulation hole cools the mechanical seal assembly through the cooling water cavity of the mechanical seal cover. There is no need for a nitrogen control system or nitrogen as a sealing gas. Instead, the medium gas is directly used as the sealing gas to generate a gaseous film in the sealing weir of the mechanical seal friction surface, avoiding direct friction between the mechanical seal surfaces.
