The sealing seat 9 maintains the pressure and stability of the sealing areas on both sides by being connected with the end face gland 10.

[0031] 1. Medium flow: The fluid (such as liquid or gas) flows from one end of the shaft sleeve 1 into the medium side sealing area (including the medium side dynamic ring 4 and the medium side static ring 5). At this time, the sealing structure ensures that the fluid does not leak to the external environment. The two O-rings on the medium side provide effective sealing effect.
[0032] 2. Pressure transmission: The pressure of the fluid is transmitted through the pumping ring 8. The pumping ring plays a role in stabilizing fluid flow and reducing leakage. The sealing seat 9 and the end face gland 10 are connected by bolts to ensure that the sealing systems on both sides are tightly matched.
[0033] 3. Air side sealing: The fluid flows through the sealing cavity 18 and enters the air side sealing area (air side dynamic ring 7 and air side static ring 6). The O-ring on the air side and the air side spring 16 ensure that the sealing area works normally under lower pressure.
[0034] 4. Anti-reverse rotation: The anti-rotation pin 19 prevents the relative rotation between the pumping ring 8 and the shaft sleeve 1, ensuring the stability of the sealing system during bidirectional flow.
[0035] 5、Sealing cavity pressure control: the design between the pumping ring 8 and the sealing cavity 18 ensures the balance of the internal pressure of the sealing cavity, preventing excessive pressure of the high-pressure fluid on the sealing surface.
[0036] In summary, by virtue of the above technical scheme of the utility model, through the accurate cooperation of various elements such as bidirectional double sealing, the pumping ring 8, the sealing seat 9, the spring and the like, excellent sealing performance is ensured in the working environment of high pressure and bidirectional flow; that is, through the double protection of medium side sealing and air side sealing, reliable sealing effect can be provided under high pressure and low pressure conditions, ensuring the isolation of fluid and external environment. The use of the pumping ring 8 helps to stabilize the pressure in the sealing cavity 18, thereby reducing the unevenness of the pressure between the sealing surfaces and improving the sealing effect; the anti-rotation pin 19 ensures that the pumping ring does not rotate during the working process, preventing sealing failure caused by relative rotation. By setting O-rings and springs at multiple positions, the distribution of sealing pressure is optimized, the stability of the sealing effect is ensured, and fatigue resistance is enhanced, which can meet the needs of bidirectional flow and is widely applied to occasions requiring forward and reverse fluid switching (such as hydraulic systems, pump systems and the like).
