[0028] Wherein, at least one outside sealing unit 3 side is equipped with an outside adjusting spacer ring 7, the position of outside adjusting spacer ring 7 is adjusted according to the wear position of outside sealing runway 2, so that outside adjusting spacer ring 7 avoids the wear position of outside sealing runway 2.

[0029] In the embodiment, the number of outside adjusting spacer ring 7 is two, and the two outside adjusting spacer rings 7 are respectively arranged between the adjacent two outside sealing units 3.

[0030] Specifically, initially, the two outer adjustment spacer rings 7 are respectively located between the adjacent first outer seal support ring 5 and the second outer seal support ring 6 of the different outer seal units 3; when the outer seal raceway 2 at the sealing lip position is worn and the position cannot be in contact with the seal after disassembly detection, the assembly order of the outer seal unit 3 can be changed.

[0031] Referring to Figure 2 , and further, when the outer seal raceway 2 at the sealing lip position is worn, the outer adjustment spacer ring 7 close to the outer side is adjusted to the outermost side of all the outer seal units 3 for assembly, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the sealing position; if the outer seal raceway 2 is worn again after the change, another outer adjustment spacer ring 7 can be adjusted to the outermost side of all the outer seal units 3 for assembly, that is, at this time, the two outer adjustment spacer rings 7 are arranged side by side at the outermost side of all the outer seal units 3, thereby achieving the effect of continuing to adjust the sealing position.

[0032] After adjusting the sealing position, the contact position of the new sealing lip formed with the outer seal raceway 2 has no wear, thereby the sealing system can be restored to the initial perfect state.

[0035] Among them, the number of inner adjustment spacer rings 15 is two, and the two inner adjustment spacer rings 15 are respectively arranged in the adjacent two inner seal units 11. According to the wear condition of the inner seal raceway 10, the two inner adjustment spacer rings 15 can be arranged side by side at the outermost side of all the inner seal units 11, or the inner adjustment spacer rings 15 can be arranged side by side at the innermost side of all the inner seal units 11.

[0036] Specifically, initially, the two inner adjustment spacer rings 15 are respectively located between the adjacent first inner seal support ring 13 and the second inner seal support ring 14 of different inner seal units 11; when the inner seal raceway 10 at the sealing lip position is worn and it is detected through disassembly that the position cannot be in sealing contact again, the assembly sequence of the inner seal unit 11 can be changed.

[0037] Referring to Figure 4 , and further, when the inner seal raceway 10 at the sealing lip position is worn, the inner adjustment spacer ring 15 close to the outer side is adjusted to the outermost side of all the inner seal units 11 for assembly, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the sealing position; if the inner seal raceway 10 is worn again after the change, the other inner adjustment spacer ring 15 can be continuously adjusted to the outermost side of all the inner seal units 11 for assembly, that is, the two inner adjustment spacer rings 15 are arranged side by side at the outermost side of all the inner seal units 11, thereby achieving the effect of continuously adjusting the sealing position.
