Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a fan seal field, concretely relates to a double seal structure for fan. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the operation process of the fan (especially Roots blower, screw blower and other gas conveying equipment), the position of the main shaft penetrating the fan shell and the bearing seat is the key sealing point for preventing internal gas or dust leakage. The sealing failure at this position not only causes process gas leakage loss and environmental pollution, but also may cause external dust to enter the bearing system, accelerate bearing wear, and even cause equipment failure.
[0003] At present, the commonly used sealing form of this part is mechanical seal. Although the mechanical seal has reliable performance, it still faces challenges when facing the high gas pressure inside the fan, possible pressure fluctuation and medium containing dust or particles. Especially in the condition of large pressure difference, the medium is easy to leak through the gap between the dynamic and static rings of the mechanical seal. Once the dust and other particles invade the working cavity of the mechanical seal, the wear of the sealing end face will be aggravated, the service life of the seal will be significantly shortened, the maintenance cost and downtime risk will be increased. In addition, the reliability of single mechanical seal under extreme working conditions is sometimes difficult to fully guarantee.
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a double seal structure for fan is proposed. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] The utility model is just for the above-mentioned problems, and a double seal structure for fan is designed. The device increases two carbon rings at the front end of the mechanical seal, and nitrogen is filled in the interface between the carbon ring and the machine seal body. The pressure of nitrogen is slightly higher than the internal pressure of the fan. If the gas inside the fan leaks through the carbon ring, nitrogen can push the leaked gas back, so that the gas does not leak into the machine seal.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a double seal structure for fan, which comprises a gas pressure seal and a mechanical seal. The gas pressure seal and the mechanical seal are installed on the shaft sleeve of the main shaft and located between the fan shell and the bearing seat. One end of the gas pressure seal is in contact with the fan shell, and the other end is fixedly connected with one end of the mechanical seal. A gap is provided between the end of the gas pressure seal close to the fan shell and the shaft sleeve.
[0007] In the above manner, the gas pressure seal is arranged between the mechanical seal and the fan shell. When the fan shell leaks, the gas pressure seal will first play the effect of plugging.
[0008] Further, the air pressure seal comprises an air filling ring, a gasket ring and a carbon ring, the gasket ring is sleeved on the shaft sleeve and is in abutting connection with the fan casing, one end of a tooth end wall plate is fixedly connected with the fan casing and the other end is fixedly connected with the bearing seat, the gasket ring has the same thickness as the side wall of the tooth end wall plate, the air filling ring is installed on the shaft sleeve and is fixedly connected with the gasket ring and the tooth end wall plate, and the carbon ring is sleeved on the shaft sleeve and is located between the gasket ring and the air filling ring.
[0009] Further, the air filling ring comprises an air filling port and a gas channel, the inner wall of the air filling ring has a stepped platform, the inner wall of the air filling ring is in matched connection with the mechanical seal and the side part is fixedly connected with the mechanical seal, the air filling port is arranged on the top of the air filling ring, one end of the gas channel is communicated with the air filling port and the other end penetrates the inner wall of the air filling ring, and a gap is arranged between the inner wall of the air filling ring and the shaft sleeve.
[0010] Further, one side of the carbon ring is provided with the gap and the other side is provided with the gap between the air filling ring and the shaft sleeve.
[0011] In the above manner, when air medium leaks into the gap through the fan casing, the pressurized gas pushes against the carbon ring through the gas channel, the pressure of the gas is slightly higher than the pressure inside the fan, so that the gas is prevented from leaking into the mechanical seal.
[0012] Further, the gas channel is in an inclined straight line structure.
[0013] Further, the mechanical seal comprises a cold static ring seat and a static ring, the cold static ring seat is located outside the mechanical seal and is fixedly connected with the side surface of the air filling ring, the static ring is located at the end of the mechanical seal and is in matched connection with the stepped platform of the inner wall of the air filling ring, and a seal liquid inlet and outlet that is communicated with the mechanical seal is arranged on the cold static ring seat.
[0014] Further, the carbon ring is connected with the gasket ring through the anti-rotation pin, and the lower stepped platform of the air filling ring is connected with the static ring through the anti-rotation pin.
[0015] Further, the air pressure seal is connected with an external pressurized gas supply device.
[0016] In summary, the air pressure seal has the following advantages and beneficial technical effects:
[0017] 1. The air pressure seal can run for a long time in harsh conditions, prevent the gas with corrosion ability from polluting the mechanical seal and causing damage to the mechanical seal, and affect the running effect of the fan.
[0018] 2. This utility model can exert a force on the carbon ring through pressurized gas, which is equal to the force received by the carbon ring due to gas leakage, thus preventing seal failure;
[0019] 3. The pneumatic seal of this utility model can be used in combination with the mechanical seal, which improves the sealing effect on the fan shaft. Attached Figure Description
