Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gearbox technology, specifically a sealing end cover for a gearbox used in screw conveyors. Background Technology

[0002] When a screw conveyor is working, the motor drives the screw shaft to rotate in a specified direction through the gearbox, conveying powdery materials from a lower to a higher position. Depending on the working conditions, screw conveyors may operate continuously for long periods or intermittently with frequent starts and stops. Furthermore, the quality of the powder is difficult to maintain consistently due to factors such as temperature and humidity, and sometimes the presence of impurities such as lumps, iron blocks, and steel wires. Therefore, the working conditions of screw conveyors are quite harsh. The sealing quality of the gearbox output shaft, which is in direct contact with the material and undergoes rotational motion, is particularly important. The quality of the sealing end cap structure directly determines the quality of the screw conveyor. Statistics show that 50% of screw conveyor failures are currently caused by seal failure.

[0003] The existing gearbox sealing end cover has some drawbacks: First, during long-term use, it is necessary to replace the sealing components and maintain the internal structure of the sealing end cover, which is not easy to disassemble and maintain, and consumes labor; second, the stability is not good, which affects the performance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sealing end cover for a gearbox of a screw conveyor, so as to solve the problems of being difficult to disassemble and maintain and having poor stability mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a sealing end cover for a gearbox of a screw conveyor, comprising a cover body and a gearbox. The cover body is disposed at one end of the gearbox. A pressure plate II is disposed on one side of the cover body, and a screw II is fixed to the upper and lower ends of one side of the pressure plate II. A connecting flange is disposed on the edge of one end of the gearbox, and a threaded sleeve II is threadedly fitted to the upper and lower ends of one side of the connecting flange, and the threaded sleeve II is threadedly fitted to the screw II. A pressure plate I is disposed on the other side of the cover body, and a screw I is fixed to the upper and lower ends of one side of the pressure plate I. A cap is disposed on one side of the pressure plate I. Furthermore, threaded sleeves are rotatably connected to the upper and lower ends of one side of the cap, and threaded sleeves are threadedly engaged with screws. The cap is passed through the output shaft, and screws are then inserted into the connecting flanges. By turning threaded sleeves, screws are locked onto screws, allowing the cap to be installed on the connecting flange. Then, the cap is passed through the output shaft, and screws are exposed above the cap. Threaded sleeves are turned to lock screws onto screws, allowing the cap to be installed on the cap. This completes the installation of the sealing cap, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the cap. When the Teflon seal or felt seal is worn to a certain extent, the cap can be easily removed, greatly improving the convenience of maintenance.

[0006] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a felt seal is provided inside the cover body, and a Teflon seal is provided on one side of the felt seal. The felt seal and the Teflon seal work together to improve the sealing and wear resistance of the gearbox.

[0007] As a further technical solution of this utility model, one end of the gearbox is provided with an output shaft, and both the upper and lower ends of the output shaft are provided with locking blocks.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a sealing ring one is provided on one side of the cap, and a sealing ring two is provided on one side of the connecting flange. The sealing ring one and the sealing ring two cooperate with each other to improve the sealing effect on the gearbox.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a slot is provided on one side of the felt ash seal corresponding to the card block, and the slot engages with the card block. During the high-speed rotation of the output shaft, the card block maintains a stable axial position and does not move, which can play the role of fixing the felt ash seal.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, slot 2 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the other side of the felt ash seal, and slot 1 is provided at the upper and lower ends of one side of the Teflon ash seal.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the upper and lower ends of the other side of the cap are fixed with insert blocks, and the insert blocks are engaged with slot one and slot two. Inserting the insert blocks into slot two and slot one limits the position of the Teflon ash seal and the felt ash seal, thereby improving the stability of the Teflon ash seal and the felt ash seal.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, guide rods are fixed at equal intervals on one side edge of the pressure plate two, and guide blocks are provided at equal intervals on the other side edge of the connecting flange. The guide blocks are engaged with the guide rods. The connecting flange limits the guide rods through the guide blocks, which also effectively prevents the pressure plate two from shaking during rotation and enhances the connection stability between the pressure plate two and the connecting flange.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] By passing the cover through the output shaft and inserting the second screw into the connecting flange, and then tightening the second threaded sleeve to lock the second threaded sleeve onto the second screw, the cover is installed on the connecting flange. Next, the cap is passed through the output shaft, and the first screw is exposed from the cap. The first threaded sleeve is tightened to lock the first threaded sleeve onto the first screw, thus installing the cap on the cover. This completes the installation of the sealing cover, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the cover. When the Teflon seal or felt seal is worn to a certain extent, the cover can be easily removed, greatly improving the convenience of maintenance and making it easy to disassemble and maintain.

[0015] By using the connecting flange and guide block, the guide rod is limited, which effectively prevents the pressure plate two from shaking during rotation and enhances the connection stability between the pressure plate two and the connecting flange. At the same time, inserting the plug into slot two and slot one limits the position of the Teflon seal and felt seal, improving the stability of the Teflon seal and felt seal. Furthermore, the plug maintains a stable axial position during the high-speed rotation of the output shaft, which can fix the felt seal and provide good stability. Attached Figure Description
