[0025] Embodiment 1
[0026] As Figs. 1-3 Indicated, the utility model provides a technical scheme: a kind of non-contact sealing protection structure, including main shaft rotating body 1, main shaft non-rotating body 2, protective cover 3, end cap 4, shaft core 5, inner labyrinth ring 6, outer labyrinth ring 7 and air curtain ring groove 8;
[0027] Main shaft rotating body 1 is located inside main shaft non-rotating body 2, protective cover 3 is installed on the outside of end cap 4, and protective cover 3 is fixed with main shaft rotating body 1 by bolt, end cap 4 is sleeved on the periphery of shaft core 5, and end cap 4 is fixed with main shaft non-rotating body 2 by bolt, end cap 4 and main shaft non-rotating body 2 are formed with air curtain ring groove 8, inner labyrinth ring 6 as a part of main shaft rotating body 1 and outer labyrinth ring 7 as a part of main shaft non-rotating body 2 are combined together, and one side is respectively adhered to end cap 4 and shaft core 5 to form deceleration chamber.
[0028] Air curtain ring groove 8 is uniformly distributed with small hole and deceleration chamber formed by end cap 4 and shaft core 5 is communicated.
[0029] Among them, main shaft in the process of operation, through the radial clearance between main shaft rotating body 1 and main shaft non-rotating body 2 form labyrinth seal and dynamic pressure seal;
[0030] And compressed air enters air curtain ring groove 8, and is uniformly sprayed into the inside of main shaft through uniformly distributed small holes to form air curtain seal.
[0031] Example 2
[0032] As shown, the radial gap between the protective cover 3 and the end cover 4 is 0.1mm~0.2mm. Figs. 1-3
[0033] The radial gap between the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 is 0.2mm~0.3mm, and three annular grooves are correspondingly formed.
[0034] The three radial gaps between the inner labyrinth ring 6 and the outer labyrinth ring 7 from the outside to the inside are 0.1mm~0.2mm, 0.2mm~0.3mm, and 1mm.
[0035] The working principle of the non-contact sealing protection structure is as follows:
[0036] 1) Labyrinth seal: from the outside to the inside, the protective cover 3 and the end cover 4 form a primary labyrinth, and the protective cover 3 is thrown away from the end cover by centrifugal force, and the radial gap between the protective cover 3 and the end cover 4 is 0.1mm~0.2mm.
[0037] The end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 form a secondary labyrinth, and the annular grooves of the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 prevent liquid from flowing in the axial direction in a non-rotating state, and form three converging pressure reduction cavities, and the radial gap between the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 is 0.2mm~0.3mm.
[0038] The inner labyrinth ring 6 and the outer labyrinth ring 7 form a final labyrinth, which includes a primary labyrinth, a deceleration cavity, a secondary labyrinth, and a final 1mm radial gap to avoid capillary effect.
[0039] 2) Dynamic pressure seal: from the outside to the inside, the rotating shaft diameter of the protective cover 3 is the largest, and the rotating shaft diameter of the inner labyrinth ring 6 is the smallest, and during the rotation process, the linear velocity of the front end is greater than that of the rear end, and the pressure of the front end is less than that of the rear end, so air moves from the rear end to the front end, and a dynamic pressure seal effect is formed.
[0040] 3) Air curtain seal: compressed air enters the air curtain ring groove 8, enters the deceleration chamber formed by the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 through the uniformly distributed small holes, and the radial gap between the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 is greater than the radial gap formed by the primary labyrinth of the inner labyrinth ring 6 and the outer labyrinth ring 7, so the flow of compressed air between the end cover 4 and the shaft core 5 will be larger, and the compressed air will be preferentially discharged to the front end, and the compressed air will be uniformly blown out from the inside to the outside, forming a positive pressure to prevent impurities from entering the interior of the main shaft.
[0041] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
