AI Technical Summary
In existing horizontal screw discharge sedimentation centrifuges, the bearings at both ends of the screw cause excessive internal space occupation, which limits the lower limit diameter of the slag outlet and the upper limit of the shaft diameter of the support shaft. Furthermore, the bearing clearance causes vibration and eccentricity problems, affecting the stability and speed limit of the equipment.
The differential output shaft and the spline shaft are directly meshed. A set of bearings is used to support the large end of the screw drum, while the small end is supported by the differential output shaft through the outer circle support. This eliminates the need for a small end bearing and uses the spline structure to reduce eccentricity and vibration, thereby improving transmission efficiency and stability.
It achieves a wider slag outlet diameter, improves space utilization and equipment stability, reduces vibration, enables higher speed limits, and enhances equipment operating efficiency and reliability.

[0002] In horizontal screw discharge sedimentation centrifuge, the rotary body is double rotor structure, the outer rotor is drum, and the inner rotor is screw, and in order to consider the reliability of fixed shaft rotation, bearing support is designed at both ends of the outer rotor (drum) respectively, and bearing support is also designed at both ends of the inner rotor (screw) respectively, one end is length positioning, and the other end is movable in length direction, and the defects of the structure are as follows: (1) the bearing designed at both ends of the screw needs additional space size to accommodate the bearing in the internal space; (2) for small specification products, the use of screw bearing will limit the lower limit diameter of the drum small end discharge port; (3) at the same time, the use of screw bearing will compress the upper limit size of the shaft diameter of the support shaft or transmission shaft, so that the material and strength application are limited; (4) the use of bearing will inevitably bring the eccentricity and eccentric mass of the screw shaft due to the existence of clearance, and then affect the vibration, so that the higher speed limit cannot be reached. CONTENT OF UTILITY MODEL

[0004] The utility model scheme provides a horizontal centrifuge transmission support structure, is installed at the screw barrel body of horizontal centrifuge, the screw barrel body includes big end and small end, the big end is connected with big end journal, and the big end journal is installed with rotary bearing, the small end is connected with spline shaft through screw, the spline shaft is divided into screw connecting portion, outer circle support portion and spline portion in proper order, and the diameter of outer circle support portion is greater than the diameter of spline portion, the small end is circumscribed with a differential mechanism output shaft, and the differential mechanism output shaft end head is provided with inner hole along its axial direction, the inner hole is divided into smooth section and spline groove from hole outside to hole inside in proper order, the spline groove is engaged with spline portion, and the smooth section extends to the outer circle support portion of spline shaft and is matched with the gap to form rotary support.
[0005] Beneficial effects: the scheme adopts the direct meshing mode of the differential output shaft and the spline shaft, only uses a set of bearing support at the large end of the spiral cylinder body, and applies the radial force to the differential output shaft through the outer circle support part at the small end, thereby supporting by the differential output shaft, compared with the traditional structure of setting bearings at both ends, the scheme saves the bearing at the small end of the spiral cylinder body, so that the diameter of the small end slag outlet can be wider, the slag discharge efficiency is improved, the internal space is saved, the overall structure is more compact, and the space utilization is improved; in addition, through the direct meshing of the spline, the eccentricity problem of the spiral shaft center caused by the bearing clearance is reduced, thereby reducing the vibration, so that the centrifugal machine can reach a higher speed limit, and the stability and operation efficiency of the equipment are improved; at the same time, since the diameter of the outer circle support part is greater than the diameter of the spline part, the radial force (including centrifugal force and gravity) received by the spiral cylinder body is transmitted to the differential through the outer circle support part, and the spline structure does not bear the radial force, thereby effectively protecting the spline and improving the transmission efficiency; finally, since the outer circle support part and the inner hole of the differential output shaft are gap fit, the outer circle support part can play a radial positioning role during assembly, and the spline part focuses on power transmission and no longer bears the positioning function, which reduces the machining difficulty of the spline, and improves the reliability and practicability of the overall structure.
[0006] In summary, the transmission support structure is suitable for the horizontal centrifugal machine, and only the large end bearing and the outer circle support mechanism of the small end can realize rotary support, the mechanism is compact and the transmission is stable.
[0007] Further, the shaft of the differential output shaft is provided with a rotary bearing, and an axle retainer ring for preventing the bearing from moving axially. By providing a rotary bearing on the differential output shaft, the stable connection and rotation between the spiral cylinder body and the differential can be further ensured, and the reliability and durability of the entire transmission system can be improved. In addition to preventing the bearing from moving, the axle retainer ring avoids the vibration and noise problems caused by bearing loosening, and further improves the stability and safety of the equipment.
[0008] Further, the rotary bearing on the large end bearing is a ball bearing or a roller bearing, and the rotary bearing on the differential output shaft is a ball bearing. The large end bearing needs to bear larger radial and axial loads, and the ball bearing or roller bearing is selected to ensure stable operation of the equipment under high load conditions; and the ball bearing is used on the differential output shaft, which can more effectively transmit torque and reduce energy loss, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the equipment.
[0009] Further, the spline groove and spline are both rectangular spline structures or involute spline structures. Rectangular spline has the characteristics of high load capacity and good centering, and is suitable for heavy load and high speed transmission. Involute spline has the characteristics of stable transmission and low noise, and is suitable for precision transmission. According to the specific application scene, the appropriate structure can be selected to optimize the transmission performance and improve the overall efficiency of the equipment.
[0010] Further, the tolerance range of the clearance fit is 0.005-0.03mm, which achieves the technical effect that the oil gap value is less than or equal to that of the same level type deep groove ball bearing (the rotational speed limit of the deep groove ball bearing in the bearing is the highest in the same specification), which can ensure smooth assembly, maximize the assembly precision and radial positioning accuracy after assembly, and minimize the eccentricity and eccentric mass caused during operation.
