AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the radial force of the main drive sealing lip of a tunnel boring machine gradually decreases as the sealing lip wears down, resulting in reduced sealing reliability and service life, and high replacement costs.
A magnetically constrained large-diameter lip sealing system is adopted. By embedding a magnetic rubber ring inside the rubber seal, the magnetic rubber ring approaches the rotating shaft when the lip wears, thereby increasing the magnetic force, compensating for the radial force loss, and maintaining the stability of the seal.
It extends the service life of the seal, improves the reliability of the seal and the ease of installation, and is suitable for applications with high sealing requirements such as tunnel boring machines and ship tail shafts.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a sealed technical field, concretely relates to a kind of magnetic constraint large-diameter lip seal system for rotating shaft. BACKGROUND
[0002] The main drive sealing ring of shield machine is the "immune system" of shield machine, once the main drive seal is found to leak, shield machine will be paralyzed and cannot run, and shield machine sealing replacement cost is high, so the life and reliability of the main drive seal of shield machine are very important.
[0003] The radial force of the main drive sealing lip of active shield machine can gradually decrease with the wear of sealing lip, and then the reliability and service life of the seal are reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a sealing system with reduced radial force reduction after sealing lip wear. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT
[0004] Technical scheme:
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model takes a new design scheme. The utility model relates to a kind of magnetic constraint large-diameter lip seal system for rotating shaft, and its characterized in that it includes rubber seal (1), magnetic rubber ring (2), support ring (3), rotating shaft (4) and sealing cavity (5),
[0006] The rubber seal (1) is embedded with the magnetic rubber ring (2),
[0007] The support ring (3) is arranged inside the sealing cavity (5), and the rubber seal (1) is fixed between the adjacent two support rings (3).
[0008] Preferably, the magnetic rubber ring (2) is located in the lip region of the rubber seal (1).
[0009] Preferably, the number of rubber seals (1) and support rings (3) is more than two, and they are arranged axially spaced along the sealing cavity (5).
[0010] Preferably, the lips of the two rubber seals (1) located at the outermost side of the sealing cavity (5) are reversely arranged.
[0011] After the wear of the lip of the rubber seal (1), the magnetic rubber ring (2) is closer to the rotating shaft (4), which makes up for the reduced radial force due to the wear of the lip.
[0012] The magnetic rubber ring (2) is a soft magnet filled with a large amount of magnetic powder based on rubber.
[0013] The rubber seal (1) and the magnetic rubber ring (2) semi-finished product are co-extruded by an extruder, so that the relative position of the magnetic rubber ring (2) in the rubber seal (1) is ensured, and then vulcanization is performed by using a mold and a flat plate vulcanizer. In this way, the rubber seal (1) and the magnetic rubber ring (2) are thermally bonded as a whole during vulcanization.
[0014] The magnetic force of the magnetic rubber ring (2) can be controlled by adjusting the type and content of the filled magnetic powder, so that a suitable radial force is provided. When the lip is worn, the soft magnetic constraint ring (2) is closer to the rotating shaft (4), the magnetic force is increased, the radial force of the oil seal lip is compensated for the decrease caused by the wear of the lip, and the radial force of the oil seal lip is maintained at a relatively stable level for a long time.
[0015] The utility model discloses a magnetic constraint large-diameter lip seal system for a rotating shaft, which can solve the problem that the sealing radial force of a traditional large rotating shaft lip seal decreases too fast with the wear of the sealing lip, thereby prolonging the service life of the seal.
[0016] The sealing system has reliable performance, long service life, convenient installation, good universality and interchangeability, and is particularly suitable for high-sealing requirements such as shield machines and ship tail shaft sealing.
[0017] The utility model will be further described below with reference to the drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
