Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen waste pretreatment technology, specifically a waterproof and sealed speed reducer. Background Technology
[0002] The screw conveyor is made of 304 stainless steel. The screw and the connecting flange are fixed by bolts. The drive-end geared motor is fixed to the shaft in the middle of the connecting flange by a slot and installed at the end cover plate of the screw conveyor. The geared motor and the end cover plate of the screw conveyor adopt the M1 connection method. There is no special sealing measure between the shaft in the middle of the connecting flange and the geared motor. It is a rigid connection. The dynamic and static clearance of the rotating parts is only sealed by the skeleton oil seal at the connecting flange of the geared motor. The reliability is low. Due to the structure and installation method of the geared motor of the drive end of the screw conveyor in the kitchen waste pretreatment system, the rigid connection without transition device will inevitably lead to seal wear and the risk of material leakage and water seepage from the geared motor. Especially for the screw conveyor with the geared motor at the lowest point, due to gravity, water will accumulate at the end cover plate of the screw for a long time, which will pose a great threat to the seal of the geared motor and seriously affect the service life of the equipment.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-1 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0025] A waterproof and sealed speed reducer includes a speed reducer 1, a frame 2, a main shaft 5, and a sealing kit disposed between the speed reducer 1 and the tail end cover plate of a screw conveyor. The sealing kit includes a packing seal seat 3, a packing gland 4, a packing 6, a sealing gasket 7, a rear seal seat 9, and a lip-shaped skeleton sealing gasket 10. The packing seal seat 3 and the rear seal seat 9 are respectively installed at both ends between the speed reducer 1 and the tail end cover plate of the screw conveyor. The main shaft 5 passes through the packing seal seat 3 and the rear seal seat 9. The packing 6 is disposed between the packing seal seat 3 and the main shaft 5. The packing gland 4 is installed on the packing seal seat 3 and is used to press the packing 6. The lip-shaped skeleton sealing gasket 10 is disposed between the rear seal seat 9 and the main shaft 5. The sealing gasket 7 is disposed between the packing seal seat 3 and the rear seal seat 9, and between the rear seal seat 9 and the tail end cover plate of the screw conveyor.
[0026] The sealing kit also includes a double-row tapered roller bearing 8, which is mounted on the main shaft 5 and located between the packing seal 3 and the rear seal 9. The main shaft 5 and the output shaft of the reducer 1 are connected by a flexible coupling or a universal joint to ensure that the reducer 1 does not leak oil due to the shaking of the main shaft 5. The packing seal 3 and the rear seal 9 are made of stainless steel, and a drain valve is provided at the bottom of the sealing kit.
[0027] Before formal operation, check whether the lubricating oil in the reducer 1 is sufficient and of good quality. If insufficient or deteriorated, replenish or replace the lubricating oil promptly. Manually rotate the main shaft 5 to check whether the rotation is flexible and free from jamming. At the same time, check whether the connections of each component are loose and whether there are any abnormalities in the sealing parts. Start the equipment driven by the reducer 1 and perform a no-load test run first. Observe the operating status of the reducer 1, including whether there is any abnormal noise or vibration, and whether there is any liquid leakage in the sealing parts. After running the equipment under no-load for a period of time and confirming that there are no abnormalities, gradually load it to the normal working load. During operation, closely monitor the operating parameters of reducer 1, such as oil temperature, speed, and noise. Under normal operation, the oil temperature of reducer 1 should not exceed the specified maximum temperature, which is generally 80℃-90℃ (refer to the reducer instruction manual for details). The noise should be stable and within the normal range. If the oil temperature is found to be too high, the noise is abnormally increased, or other abnormalities are found, the machine should be stopped immediately for inspection. Regularly check the sealing performance of the sealing kit, observe whether there are any signs of liquid leakage at the sealing parts, and at the same time check whether the drain valve is working properly and whether the drain pipe is unobstructed to ensure that the liquid entering the sealing kit can be discharged in time.
[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
