Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to mechanical equipment manufacturing technical field, concretely relates to a kind of end face O-shaped sealing ring groove structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of mechanical seal, end face sealing structure plays a key role in ensuring the reliable operation of various mechanical equipment. End face O-shaped sealing ring groove is an important component in such sealing system.

[0003] Currently, most of the existing end face sealing ring grooves are rectangular grooves. When installing O-shaped sealing rings into these rectangular grooves, some problems often occur. First, during the installation process, the O-shaped sealing ring is prone to falling off and shifting. The planar straight wall structure of the rectangular groove has relatively small constraints on the O-shaped sealing ring during installation. Workers need to be extra careful during installation, and in some cases, special tools are needed to try to accurately position the O-shaped sealing ring, which greatly increases the installation difficulty and time cost.

[0004] Secondly, the problem of O-shaped sealing ring falling off and shifting during installation can lead to a decrease or even failure of the sealing performance of the O-shaped sealing ring. Once the O-shaped sealing ring is not correctly installed in the groove, gaps or uneven contact may occur between the O-shaped sealing ring and the groove wall as well as the mating surface. This can cause fluid or gas leakage, which is unacceptable in many applications that require high sealing precision, such as aerospace, automotive, and hydraulic systems.

[0005] In view of the above problems in the prior art, it is urgent to develop an end face O-shaped sealing ring groove structure to facilitate the installation of O-shaped sealing rings and ensure their stable sealing performance. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is the problem of inconvenient installation of O-shaped sealing rings and unstable sealing performance of existing sealing ring grooves. The purpose is to provide an end face O-shaped sealing ring groove structure that solves the problem of inconvenient installation of O-shaped sealing rings and unstable sealing performance.

[0007] The utility model is implemented by the following technical solutions:

[0008] An end face O-shaped sealing ring groove structure has a recess in the installation plane, and the recess is used to clamp and fix the O-shaped sealing ring.

[0009] The recess includes an inner side wall, an outer side wall, a groove bottom wall, an inner side angle, and an outer side angle.

[0010] The inner side wall is arc-shaped in cross-section.

[0011] The outer side wall is straight in cross-section.

[0012] The groove bottom wall surface is straight line in section;

[0013] The inner side angle is connected with the inner side wall surface and the groove bottom wall surface respectively;

[0014] The outer side angle is connected with the outer side wall surface and the groove bottom wall surface respectively.

[0015] As a possible design, the above-mentioned inner side wall surface, outer side wall surface, groove bottom wall surface, inner side angle and outer side angle constitute a trapezoid, and the groove bottom wall surface is a long side bottom surface.

[0016] As a possible design, the above-mentioned inner side wall surface is wavy in section.

[0017] As a possible design, the end of the above-mentioned inner side wall surface away from the groove bottom wall surface is arc-shaped and protrudes outward to the side of the outer side wall surface.

[0018] As a possible design, the above-mentioned inner side wall surface is obliquely arranged, and the end of the inner side wall surface away from the groove bottom wall surface is obliquely arranged to the outer side wall surface.

[0019] As a possible design, the oblique angle of the above-mentioned inner side wall surface is 5-30°.

[0020] As a possible design, the above-mentioned inner side angle is a circular arc angle.

[0021] As a possible design, the above-mentioned outer side angle is a right angle.

[0022] As a possible design, the angle of the above-mentioned outer side angle is less than 90°.

[0023] As a possible design, the angle of the above-mentioned outer side angle is 50-80°.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages and beneficial effects that:

[0025] This invention employs a method of precisely embedding an O-ring into a specific groove. The inner wall of this groove has an arc-shaped cross-section, while the outer wall has a straight cross-section. When the O-ring is embedded in the groove, the arc-shaped structure of the inner wall creates a uniform and continuous compression effect on the inner wall of the O-ring. From a mechanical perspective, this compression causes elastic deformation of the inner wall of the O-ring, tightly adhering it to the inner wall of the groove, thus forming a tight contact between the O-ring and the groove, effectively preventing the O-ring from slipping out inward. Simultaneously, the straight structure of the outer wall provides stable support for the outer side of the O-ring, reducing the possibility of radial displacement. Through this design, the O-ring can maintain a stable position and shape in complex working environments, thereby ensuring its excellent sealing performance. This design effectively avoids leakage problems caused by changes in the O-ring's position or incomplete sealing, ensuring that the entire system can maintain stable sealing performance over a long period.
