TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a tensioning wheel technical field especially relates to a high reliability full sealing dustproof structure tensioning wheel. BACKGROUND
[0002] The multi-wedge belt is applied more and more widely in the engine front end wheel system, but the belt drive belongs to friction drive, and with the continuous increase of time, the belt will gradually extend and wear out.In order to ensure that the engine can stably, efficiently and reliably transmit energy to each front end accessory, ensure that the belt tension changes in a relatively stable area, the tensioning device (tensioning wheel) is added in the front end wheel system accessory.The traditional fixed tensioning device cannot automatically compensate due to the extension of the belt, and when the belt tension is insufficient, the accessory belt drive system will have problems such as low transmission efficiency and loud noise, so the automatic tensioning wheel is developed, which ensures that the belt tension changes in a relatively stable area as the belt gradually extends and wears out, and ensures that the engine can stably, efficiently and reliably transmit energy to each front end accessory.But with the development of China's sixth engine, the use condition of the engine is not only improved and optimized, and the traditional dustproof structure tensioning wheel cannot meet the requirements of the sixth engine, so the high reliability, high performance and new type full sealing dustproof structure tensioning wheel is developed.

[0013] Further, the pulley is installed on the outer end of the support plate through a shaft bolt, one end of the support plate is provided with a stepped structure for positioning the double-row angular contact ball bearing, so that the bearing installation precision and the belt pulley rotation stability are ensured.

Example
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-reliability, fully sealed, dustproof tensioning wheel includes a support plate 1, a support sleeve 2, and a central bushing 5 forming a rigid connection. One end of the central bushing 5 is knurled to form a connection structure with a certain interlocking force. The support sleeve 2, after engaging with the central bushing 5 through this knurled portion, is further fixed to the support plate 1, thus forming an integrated structure that constitutes the basic support frame of the tensioning wheel.
[0029] The spring 12 is arranged between the support plate 1 and the support sleeve 2, one end of the spring 12 is fixed on the spring limiting block arranged on the support plate 1, and the other end of the spring 12 is connected with the limiting block on the support sleeve 2, so that the spring 12 is in a compressed state in the working state, thereby continuously applying a tensioning force to the support plate 1, and the automatic tensioning function of the belt system is realized.
[0030] The support plate 1 is a rotating part of the tensioning wheel, and a sliding bearing 7 is arranged between the support plate 1 and the opposite central shaft sleeve 5. The sliding bearing 7 is installed in the support plate 1 by interference press-fitting, so that the support plate 1 is tightly combined with the outer ring of the sliding bearing 7, thereby ensuring that the entire tensioning wheel can rotate stably around the central shaft sleeve 5.

The O-shaped rubber sealing ring 8 has excellent elasticity and compression resilience, and can maintain a close contact state during rotation to prevent external dust and water vapor from entering the internal sliding pair and bearing area, thereby building a completely sealed dustproof space.

The sleeve ring 3 is made of a high-wear-resistant material (such as PTFE composite material) with self-lubricating performance, and the mating surfaces of the adjacent parts are processed with high precision, so that the sleeve ring 3 can maintain a gapless close contact state during rotation, thereby realizing the dual effects of reducing rotation friction and prolonging the service life of the parts, and further sealing the gap and strengthening the dustproof effect.
[0036] By enlarging the contact area between the sleeve ring 3 and the support plate 1 and the support sleeve 2, the specific pressure value is effectively reduced, and the wear resistance is improved. Embodiment

[0041] The output end of the tensioning wheel is provided with a belt pulley 6, which is installed on the outer end of the support plate 1 through a shaft bolt 14 and is supported through a double-row angular contact ball bearing 15. Compared with the two single-row deep groove ball bearings commonly used in the traditional structure, the double-row angular contact ball bearing 15 can simultaneously bear axial and radial loads, has a compact structure and high rigidity, and can effectively ensure the running stability of the belt pulley 6 under high-speed rotation.
[0042] One end of the support plate 1 is provided with a stepped positioning structure, so that the bearing 15 can be accurately installed without axial displacement, and the long-term stable operation of the belt pulley 6 is ensured. Embodiment
[0043] This embodiment is further optimized on the basis of embodiment one, specifically:
[0044] In order to further improve the running life of the bearing system, a dust cover one 9 is arranged at the front end of the double-row angular contact ball bearing 15, which is made of metal material and realizes complete sealing by press-fitting sealing; a dust cover two 13 is arranged at the rear end, which adopts a labyrinth structure design and is composed of multiple coaxially nested metal rings, and the gap path blocks the external pollutants from entering the bearing cavity.
[0045] The front and rear combined dust cover structure realizes effective dust prevention without contacting the rotating part, which is one of the important designs of the utility model for realizing long life and high stability. Embodiment
[0046] This embodiment is further optimized on the basis of embodiment one, specifically:
[0047] In order to simplify the assembly process and improve the overall structural rigidity of the tensioning wheel, the center shaft sleeve 5 is connected to the support sleeve 2 and the support plate 1 by knurling connection in the design, avoiding the problem of loose thread connection between traditional multiple components. At the same time, the structure reduces the assembly tolerance superposition, improves the relative coaxiality between each rotating part, and fundamentally improves the running stability and fatigue resistance of the whole machine.
