Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to mechanical seal device technical field, especially relate to a kind of mechanical seal device that can resist pump positive and negative pressure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the application field of slurry pump, shaft seal is the key component to ensure that the medium inside the pump body does not leak. At present, mechanical seal is generally used as shaft seal in domestic and foreign slurry pumps, which is due to the significant advantages of mechanical seal, such as no leakage, low power consumption and strong adaptability, so that it can adapt to various working conditions. However, under certain conditions, such as the working environment of tunnel slurry pump, mechanical seal faces unique challenges.

[0003] During the tunnel slurry discharge process, due to the possibility of containing large particle impurities or fibrous substances in the slurry, it is easy to cause pipeline blockage. When the pipeline is blocked, negative pressure will be generated in the pump cavity, resulting in instantaneous reduction of the cavity pressure. At this time, the atmospheric pressure will produce extrusion effect on the mechanical seal, and after the pipeline is dredged, the cavity pressure will quickly recover, forming positive pressure. The frequent alternation of negative pressure and positive pressure will cause the displacement of mechanical seal before and after, resulting in the loosening of locking device. Once the locking device is loosened, the two sealing surfaces of the sealing ring of the mechanical seal will be opened instantly, so that the slurry can invade, thereby causing the leakage problem of mechanical seal.

[0004] The existing mechanical seal locking device mainly adopts the mode of holding the dynamic ring seat sleeve and shaft sleeve tightly by bolt force to fix the mechanical seal on the pump shaft (or shaft sleeve). However, in the face of the special working conditions of frequent changes of positive and negative pressure, this locking mode often cannot effectively resist the impact force brought by pressure change, so as to ensure the reliability and stability of mechanical seal.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the problem of easy leakage of mechanical seal under special working conditions such as tunnel slurry pump, it is urgent to develop a kind of mechanical seal device which can resist the change of positive and negative pressure, so as to improve the adaptability and reliability of mechanical seal, and ensure the normal operation of slurry pump under harsh working conditions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model more clear and obvious, the following will be further described in detail by combining with the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the utility model, and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2A mechanical seal device capable of resisting positive and negative pressure of a pump, comprising a pump shaft 17, a pump shaft end provided with an impeller dismounting ring 15, the other end of the pump shaft provided with an impeller 16, a positioning sleeve 14 and a mechanical seal device between the impeller and the impeller dismounting ring, the mechanical seal device comprising a mechanical seal end cover 2 fixedly connected with a mechanical seal box 18, a shaft sleeve 13 provided between the mechanical seal end cover and the pump shaft, a dynamic ring seat sleeve 3 mounted on the shaft sleeve, a dynamic ring 4, a static ring 5 and a push ring 6 mounted in sequence between the dynamic ring seat sleeve 3 and the end cover 2, a spring 7 provided between the push ring and the end cover 2 to make the dynamic ring and the static ring tightly adhere to each other, the basic structure of the mechanical seal device, the tight adhesion of the dynamic ring and the static ring ensures the sealing effect, the spring 7 provides continuous compression force, so that the dynamic ring and the static ring can always maintain close contact during the operation of the pump, effectively preventing leakage; an isolation water sleeve 1 is mounted on the mechanical seal end cover on the impeller side, and a water outlet gap is provided between the isolation water sleeve and the shaft sleeve; the design of the isolation water sleeve can form an isolation space, and the cooling water is discharged through the water outlet gap, which can not only take away the heat generated by the friction between the dynamic ring and the static ring, but also prevent the medium in the pump cavity from entering the working environment of the sealing ring, thereby protecting the sealing element from corrosion and wear, balancing the pressure in the pump cavity and improving the stability of the sealing. On the shaft sleeve on the impeller dismounting ring side, an outer spiral sleeve 10 is mounted between the positioning sleeve and the shaft sleeve, a locking sleeve 9 is mounted on the outer spiral sleeve, the outer spiral sleeve and the locking sleeve are connected through threads, the locking sleeve is sleeved on the shaft sleeve 13, an annular groove 3-1 is provided on the dynamic ring seat sleeve, a first fixing bolt 11 is provided on the locking sleeve in the radial direction corresponding to the annular groove; the first fixing bolt is inserted into the annular groove. The design of the outer spiral sleeve and the locking sleeve realizes the self-locking function of the mechanical seal. The locking sleeve is tightly locked on the shaft sleeve through the cooperation of the first fixing bolt and the annular groove, and with the rotation of the pump shaft, the thread action between the outer spiral sleeve and the locking sleeve makes the locking more tightly, effectively preventing the mechanical seal from moving forward and backward due to the change of positive and negative pressure, and improving the stability and reliability of the sealing.

[0023] An outer wall of the shaft sleeve 13 is provided with a sliding groove 13-1 in the axial direction, a second fixing bolt 19 is provided on the dynamic ring seat sleeve 3, and the second fixing bolt is inserted into the sliding groove. The design of the sliding groove and the second fixing bolt enables the dynamic ring seat sleeve to be slightly adjusted in the axial direction on the shaft sleeve, facilitating the installation and adjustment of the mechanical seal. At the same time, the second fixing bolt provides additional fixing force, ensuring the stability of the dynamic ring seat sleeve during the operation of the pump, and further improving the reliability of the sealing.

[0024] An annular limiting groove 3-2 is provided on the dynamic ring seat sleeve 3 in the circumferential direction inside the second fixing bolt, and a temporary limiting plate 8 is mounted in the annular limiting groove.

[0025] The rotating ring seat 3 has a vent hole 3-3 at the lower part of the rotating ring. During rotating ring installation, the vent hole 3-3 allows air that may be present between the rotating and stationary rings to escape, ensuring a tight fit and improving the sealing effect. During pump operation, if air resistance forms between the rotating and stationary rings, it may affect the sealing performance. The presence of the vent hole 3-3 helps eliminate this air resistance, maintaining the stability of the seal. The design of the vent hole 3-3 reduces seal failure caused by residual air, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the mechanical seal.

[0026] The locking sleeve 9 has a rotating hole 12 along its circumference. The design of the rotating hole 12 allows the operator to use tools or manually rotate the locking sleeve 9, which is very convenient when installing, disassembling or adjusting the mechanical seal.

[0027] The rotating ring seat 3 is also provided with N third fixing bolts 20. After the pump is adjusted, the third fixing bolts are locked on the shaft sleeve to prevent the rotating ring seat and the shaft sleeve from moving axially due to external force, so as to fix them tightly and further improve the reliability of the seal.
