Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of screw extruder technology, and in particular to an independent sealed box structure for a screw extruder. Background Technology

[0002] Screw extruders are one of the commonly used pieces of equipment in the ceramics industry. They mainly consist of a transmission box and a screw shaft. One end of the screw shaft is used to agitate and transport the clay, while the other end extends into the transmission box and connects to the gears. It is also rotatably connected to the transmission box via bearings. The connection between the gears and the screw shaft is filled with lubricating oil.

[0003] Currently, such as Figure 2 The transmission housing shown has a sealing structure and ceramic clay in front of the front bearing, and lubricating oil behind it. If the seal loosens, lubricating oil will enter the clay, contaminating it. Simultaneously, the clay will enter the seal and bearing, causing rapid wear. This rapid wear, in turn, leads to a large amount of clay entering the seal and bearing, creating a vicious cycle that ultimately causes the screw extruder to rapidly fail. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an independent sealing box structure for screw extruders to overcome the defects of existing transmission box seals, which can lead to contamination of ceramic clay and rapid wear of transmission box parts once the seal becomes loose.

[0005] An independent sealed housing structure for a screw extruder includes:

[0006] The transmission box is internally divided into a sealed chamber and a transmission chamber by a partition; and

[0007] A screw shaft is installed through the transmission box, and the screw shaft is sealed to the inner wall of the sealing cavity and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the transmission cavity.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealed box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, it also includes a transmission gear, which is disposed in the transmission cavity and meshes with the screw shaft.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealed box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, the transmission cavity is filled with lubricating oil.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealed box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, the top of the transmission box is provided with a detachable cover plate.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealed box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, an observation window is provided at the corresponding position of the transmission box and the sealing cavity.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealing box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, a sealing mechanism is provided between the screw shaft and the inner wall of the sealing cavity.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the independent sealed box structure of the screw extruder in this utility model, a bearing is provided between the screw shaft and the interior of the transmission cavity.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention uses a partition to divide the inside of the transmission box into a sealed cavity and a transmission cavity. The transmission structure and lubricating oil are located in the transmission cavity, while the sealed cavity is located between the transmission cavity and the ceramic clay. The inner walls on both sides of the sealed cavity are sealed to the screw shaft through a sealing mechanism. When the seal is loose, the ceramic clay or lubricating oil enters the sealed cavity but will not immediately come into contact with the bearing or ceramic clay, thus reducing the probability of the ceramic clay being contaminated or the transmission box parts being worn rapidly.

[0016] This invention allows observation of the sealing cavity through an observation window. When the seal becomes loose, it can be detected in time through the observation window, and the tightness of the seal can be adjusted at any time through a detachable cover plate. It can also be used to maintain or replace aging sealing materials. Attached Figure Description

[0035] Example

[0036] This embodiment provides an independent sealed box structure for a screw extruder, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a transmission box, which is internally divided into a sealed cavity 2000 and a transmission cavity 3000 by a partition 1000. One end of the screw shaft 4000 passes through the sealed cavity 2000, the partition 1000 and the transmission cavity 3000 in sequence. The sealed cavity 2000 separates the ceramic clay located at the other end of the screw shaft 4000 from the transmission cavity 3000.

[0037] The top of the transmission box is equipped with a removable cover plate 5000 to facilitate maintenance of the internal structure of the transmission box. An observation window 6000 is located at the position corresponding to the sealing cavity 2000, allowing operators to promptly detect ceramic clay or lubricating oil entering the sealing cavity 2000. The removable cover plate 5000 allows for adjustment of the tightness of the sealing mechanism 7000 within the sealing wall 2000, and also enables maintenance or replacement of aging sealing mechanisms 7000.

[0038] The partition plate 1000 is provided with a first through hole for the screw shaft 4000 to pass through. The transmission box is provided with a second through hole and a third through hole at positions opposite to the first through hole on both sides. One end of the screw shaft 4000 passes through the second through hole, the first through hole and the third through hole in sequence.

[0039] The transmission cavity 3000 is equipped with a transmission gear, which is disposed within the transmission cavity 3000 and meshes with the screw shaft 4000. Its interior is also filled with lubricating oil for lubrication.

[0040] In this embodiment, both the first and second through holes are provided with detachable sealing mechanisms 7000 near the sealing cavity 2000. The sealing mechanisms 7000 are arranged around the screw shaft 4000, and while the sealing mechanisms 7000 provide a sealing function, the screw shaft 4000 can rotate normally. The third and second through holes are provided with detachable bearings 8000 near the transmission cavity 3000. The bearings 8000 are sleeved with the screw shaft 4000 and mainly serve to support and transmit power.

[0041] When the sealing mechanism 7000 is loose, the ceramic clay or lubricating oil enters the sealing cavity 2000 and will not immediately come into contact with the bearing 8000 or the ceramic clay, reducing the probability of the ceramic clay being contaminated or the transmission box parts being worn rapidly.

[0042] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0043] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
