Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of reducer sealing, in particular to a reducer oil leakage prevention device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The reducer has long existed in the industrial transmission system, and the sealing failure problem is caused by the deterioration of the oil thermodynamic characteristics (oil temperature > 85 DEG C) and the internal pressure dynamic imbalance (fluctuation amplitude + 15 kPa). According to industry statistics, 72% of the reducer oil leakage accidents are caused by the sealing interface damage under the coupling effect of high temperature and high pressure. The traditional solution relies on the combined sealing structure (such as the composite application of rubber sealing ring and sealing glue), but the thermal stability and deformation adaptability are insufficient, and it is difficult to match the dynamic sealing demand under complex working conditions.

[0003] The existing reducer sealing system has significant technical bottlenecks: first, the passive heat dissipation design relies on the natural convection heat exchange of the shell, and the heat dissipation efficiency is only 1.2-1.8 W / (m2 K). Under high load working conditions (the oil temperature can rise to more than 85 DEG C), the temperature control capacity is insufficient, which causes the mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficient of the sealing material, and causes the local stress concentration and sealing structure failure; second, the gas pressure balancing device mainly uses the mechanical breathing valve, and the one-way pressure relief mechanism is easy to cause functional blockage (blockage rate > 35%) due to dust accumulation, and the oil mist escape rate is as high as 12-18% during the pressure relief process, which aggravates the lubricating oil loss and environmental pollution. SUMMARY

[0004] The application provides a reducer oil leakage prevention device, which can effectively avoid the local stress concentration and sealing structure failure caused by the mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficient of the sealing material due to the insufficient temperature control capacity by cooling the oil in the reducer, and can adjust the gas pressure in the reducer through gas pressure balancing, thereby effectively solving the problems in the background art.

[0006] The air pressure balancing device comprises a gas guide pipe installed above the reducer outer shell, the outer side of the gas guide pipe is provided with a pear-shaped splash guard, the pear-shaped splash guard divides the gas guide pipe into upper and lower two sections, the lower section of the gas guide pipe is connected with the reducer outer shell, the upper section of the gas guide pipe is connected with a filter box, the inside of the filter box is provided with a dust screen, and the inside of the pear-shaped splash guard is provided with a plurality of splash boards.
