Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sealing technology, and in particular relates to an inner ring positioning device for a non-disc-shaped end face sealing element. Background Technology
[0002] A spring seal (also known as a spring-energized seal or variseal) is a high-performance U-shaped Teflon seal with an internal special spring. The appropriate spring force, combined with system fluid pressure, pushes the sealing lip (face) forward, gently pressing it against the metal surface to create an excellent seal. The spring's actuation effect overcomes slight misalignment of the metal mating surfaces and wear of the sealing lip, thus maintaining the desired sealing performance over time.
[0003] However, during the assembly of existing non-disc-type end-face plug seals, the inner ring's arc-shaped sectional surface makes it difficult to accurately position and fix the inner ring. This leads to deviations in the assembly of various parts of the seal, resulting in an unstable seal assembly. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an inner ring positioning device for a non-disc-type end face plug seal, which solves the problem that in the assembly of existing non-disc-type end face plug seals, the inner ring is difficult to position and fix accurately due to its arc-shaped cross-section, which leads to deviations in the assembly of various parts of the seal and results in an unstable seal assembly.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model is a non-disc-type end face plug seal inner ring positioning device, including a base plate and a seal, wherein a positioning mechanism is provided on the base plate;
[0007] The sealing element consists of a PEEK retaining ring, a stainless steel V-shaped energy storage spring, and a PTFE shell. The stainless steel V-shaped energy storage spring is installed on the inner wall of the PTFE shell. The stainless steel V-shaped energy storage spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the PEEK retaining ring. The positioning mechanism is used to fix the position of the PEEK retaining ring. After the stainless steel V-shaped energy storage spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the PEEK retaining ring, the PTFE shell wraps around the stainless steel V-shaped energy storage spring to assemble and install the entire sealing element.
[0008] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes two fixed plates fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate, a motor fixedly connected to the left side of the left fixed plate, and a bidirectional threaded rod fixedly connected to the output end of the motor through a coupling. The bidirectional threaded rod passes through the two fixed plates, and the movable seat is rotatably connected to the two fixed plates.
[0009] Furthermore, the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod is threaded with two movable seats, the bottom surfaces of the two movable seats are slidably connected to the top surface of the base plate, and the two movable seats are distributed in a mirror shape on the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod.
[0010] Furthermore, three sealing sleeves are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both movable seats, pistons are slidably connected to the inner walls of several sealing sleeves, piston rods are fixedly connected to several pistons, the ends of several piston rods away from the pistons extend to the outside of the sealing sleeves, several piston rods are slidably connected to several sealing sleeves, and connecting blocks are fixedly connected to the ends of several piston rods away from the pistons.
[0011] Furthermore, each of the connecting blocks is fixedly connected to a positioning rod on its top, and each of the positioning rods has a number of positioning grooves on its outer wall, and each of the positioning grooves is in contact with the inner wall of the PEEK fixing ring.
[0012] Furthermore, each of the sealing sleeves is provided with a spring inside, one end of each spring is fixedly connected to a piston, and the other end of each spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sealing sleeve.
[0013] Furthermore, each of the two movable seats has a sealed cavity inside, and several sealing sleeves have air holes at their connection points with the two movable seats. The air holes are connected to the two sealed cavities respectively, and an electric valve is provided on the inner wall of each sealed cavity.
[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] With the help of a positioning mechanism, the drive motor rotates the bidirectional threaded rod. With the cooperation of the fixed plate, the two moving seats move away from each other. At this time, multiple positioning rods on the two moving seats contact the outer wall of the PEEK fixing ring. As the two moving seats continue to move away from each other, multiple springs deform differently according to the inner curvature of the PEEK fixing ring. The electric valve is then closed to isolate the sealing cavity from the outside air, preventing the springs from rebounding. This allows the PEEK fixing ring to be positioned at the top center of the base plate by the positioning grooves on the multiple positioning rods, ensuring accurate positioning and fixation of the seal during assembly and preventing displacement during subsequent use. Furthermore, after positioning PEEK fixing rings of the same model, the mechanism sequentially positions and assembles multiple PEEK fixing rings according to the adjusted piston rod, improving the efficiency of assembling multiple seals of the same model.

[0028] The positioning mechanism 2 includes two fixed plates 21 fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate 1. A motor 22 is fixedly connected to the left side of the left fixed plate 21. The output end of the motor 22 is fixedly connected to a bidirectional threaded rod 23 via a coupling. The bidirectional threaded rod 23 passes through the two fixed plates 21.

The bottom surfaces of the two movable seats 24 are slidably connected to the top surface of the base plate 1. The two movable seats 24 are mirror images of each other. On the outer wall of the bidirectional threaded rod 23, three sealing sleeves 25 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two movable seats 24. Pistons 26 are slidably connected to the inner walls of several sealing sleeves 25. Piston rods 27 are fixedly connected to several pistons 26. The ends of several piston rods 27 away from the pistons 26 extend to the outside of the sealing sleeves 25. Several piston rods 27 are slidably connected to several sealing sleeves 25. Connecting blocks 28 are fixedly connected to the ends of several piston rods 27 away from the pistons 26. Each connecting block 28 has a positioning rod 29 fixedly connected to its top. The outer walls of each positioning rod 29 have positioning grooves 291 that contact the inner wall of the PEEK fixing ring 31. Each sealing sleeve 25 has a spring 292 inside. One end of each spring 292 is fixedly connected to a piston 26, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 25. Both movable seats 24 have sealing grooves inside.

[0029] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: With the positioning mechanism 2 in place, when the two electric valves 295 are opened to allow the sealed cavity 294 to communicate with the outside air, the PEEK fixing ring 31 is placed on top of the fixing plate 21, allowing multiple positioning rods 29 to pass through the PEEK fixing ring 31 and be distributed on its inner side. The drive motor 22 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 23 to rotate. With the cooperation of the fixing plate 21, the two moving seats 24 move away from each other. At this time, the multiple positioning rods 29 on the two moving seats 24 contact the outer wall of the PEEK fixing ring 31. During the continuous movement of the two moving seats 24 away from each other, multiple springs 292... The PEEK retaining ring 31 will deform differently depending on the inner curvature. At this time, the electric valve 295 is closed to isolate the sealing cavity 294 from the outside air, preventing the multiple springs 292 from rebounding. This allows the PEEK retaining ring 31 to be positioned at the top center of the base plate 1 by the positioning grooves 291 on the multiple positioning rods 29. This ensures that the seal 3 can be accurately positioned and fixed during assembly, avoiding displacement during subsequent use. After positioning the PEEK retaining ring 31 of the same model, the mechanism will sequentially position and assemble multiple PEEK retaining rings 31 according to the adjusted piston rod 27, improving the efficiency of assembling multiple seals of the same model 3.
