[0024] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] The structure of the rod mill feed end sealing device provided by this utility model is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the feed pipe 1 of the rod mill extends into the interior of the cylinder 2 from the feed end, as... Figure 1 As shown, a sealing device is installed between the cylinder and the feed pipe to seal the gap between them. In this embodiment, an end cap 3 is connected to the feed end of the cylinder by connecting bolts 4, and the bolt heads protrude from the outer side wall of the end cap away from the cylinder. The sealing device is installed between the end cap and the feed pipe. Specifically, the connecting bolts are evenly distributed in a circle along the end cap. When the rod mill is working, the cylinder rotates, the end cap rotates with the cylinder, while the feed pipe remains stationary.

[0026] The sealing device in the embodiment comprises floating sealing rings 5, a flexible packing ring 6, a sealing sleeve 7 and a gland 8. The floating sealing rings are stacked in the axial direction on the outer side wall of the end cover away from the cylinder. In the embodiment, four floating sealing rings are provided, and the floating sealing rings are sleeved on the feed pipe. A gap is left between the floating sealing rings and the feed pipe. The outer circumferential surface of the floating sealing ring is clamped on the side wall of the bolt head of the connecting bolt of the end cover, so that the floating sealing ring rotates together with the cylinder. Specifically, an arc-shaped groove 501 matching the shape and size of the bolt head of the connecting bolt is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the floating sealing ring, as shown in Figure 3 The number and position of the arc-shaped grooves on the floating sealing ring match the number and position of the connecting bolts on the end cover. When the floating sealing rings are stacked on the outer side wall of the end cover away from the cylinder, the bolt heads of the connecting bolts on the end cover are located in the arc-shaped grooves on the outer circumferential surface of the floating sealing ring, so that the connecting bolts drive the floating sealing rings to rotate together when the cylinder rotates. Specifically, the floating sealing ring is made of PTFE or other wear-resistant materials. Further, the floating sealing ring has a split structure, which facilitates the installation of the floating sealing ring, and the split parts of adjacent two floating sealing rings are staggered to avoid material leakage from the split parts. Preferably, the gap between the floating sealing ring and the feed pipe is 0.5 mm, which avoids wear between the floating sealing ring and the feed pipe when the cylinder rotates, and the small gap can ensure the generation of a stable gas film or liquid film between the floating sealing ring and the feed pipe, thereby achieving a sealing effect and preventing material leakage. Further, the thickness of all the stacked floating sealing rings is less than the length of the bolt head of the connecting bolt protruding from the surface of the end cover, which ensures that all the floating sealing rings can have a small axial floating movement between the end cover and the flexible packing ring, compensates for the eccentricity between the cylinder and the feed pipe, ensures uniform gap between the floating sealing ring and the feed pipe, guarantees the best sealing effect, and avoids wear of the sealing ring due to the eccentricity between the cylinder and the feed pipe when the cylinder rotates, thereby affecting the service life of the sealing device.

[0027] The flexible packing ring is tightly sleeved on the feed pipe and pressed on the top surface of the bolt head of the connecting bolt, and the flexible packing ring is pressed on the outermost floating sealing ring, thereby limiting the floating sealing ring in the axial direction, and the flexible packing ring is tightly attached to the feed pipe, thereby further ensuring the sealing effect.

[0028] In the embodiment, a sealing sleeve in the form of a whole ring is tightly sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the flexible packing ring, which can further press the flexible packing ring on the feed pipe. Specifically, the sealing sleeve is made of metal materials such as stainless steel. Further, the flexible packing ring has a split structure, as shown in Figure 4As shown, this facilitates the installation of the flexible packing ring. The gland is annular in shape and is fixed against the outer wall of the sealing sleeve. The gland is also loosely fitted onto the feed pipe and pressed against the outer wall of the flexible packing ring, thereby further limiting the axial movement of the flexible packing ring. Specifically, the gland and the sealing sleeve are connected and fixed by fastening bolts 9. Furthermore, the sealing sleeve has a stepped cross-section, and the gland presses the sealing sleeve against the end cap and the top surface of the bolt heads of the connecting bolts on the end cap.

[0029] The rod mill feed end sealing device provided in this application is equipped with a flexible packing ring and a multi-layer floating sealing ring. The sealing device has a simple structure and has the advantages of good sealing effect, long service life and convenient installation in practical applications.
