[0002] Screw feeders are common powder conveying mechanisms in industrial production.
[0003] Existing screw feeding mechanisms have a sealing component at only one end of the feeding cylinder. During operation, the powder inside the feeding cylinder usually leaks out from the other end, causing pollution to the external environment. Furthermore, the sealing component cannot be disassembled, so it cannot be replaced periodically. If the sealing component needs to be replaced, the sealing component and the feeding cylinder must be replaced together, which increases the operating cost. At the same time, since the screw feeding mechanism operates in a high-temperature environment, the temperature of the outer circumference of the feeding cylinder is relatively high, which can easily cause burns to the operators.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 An embodiment of the present invention provides a spiral feeding mechanism, which includes a feeding cylinder 10 having an inlet 11 and an outlet 12, a screw 30 and a drive motor 40.
[0031] The feed inlet 11 and the discharge outlet 12 are distributed at intervals along the length of the feeding cylinder 10, with the feed inlet 11 located above the discharge outlet 12. The feed inlet 11 and the discharge outlet 12 are respectively close to both ends of the feeding cylinder 10.
[0032] Two sealing assemblies 20 are detachably provided at both ends of the feeding cylinder 10. The screw 30 is rotatably disposed inside the feeding cylinder 10 and the two sealing assemblies 20, and both ends of the screw 30 extend from the ends of the two sealing assemblies 20 away from the feeding cylinder 10.
[0033] Specifically, the sealing assembly 20 includes a mounting component 21, a sealing plate 22, a first sealing gasket 23, a sealing filler 24, a pressure block 25, a second sealing gasket 26, an oil seal structure 27, and a sealing bearing seat 29.
[0034] One end of the mounting piece 21 of the two sealing components 20 is detachably mounted at both ends of the feeding cylinder 10, and the sealing plate 22 is detachably mounted at the other end of the mounting piece 21. The screw 30 is rotatably mounted inside the feeding cylinder 10 and the two mounting pieces 21, and both ends of the screw 30 extend out from the through holes 221 of the sealing plates 22 of the two sealing components 20.
[0035] The first sealing gasket 23 is sandwiched between one end of the mounting member 21 and the corresponding end of the feeding cylinder 10. The sealing filler 24 is located inside the mounting member 21, and one end of the sealing filler 24 abuts against the first sealing gasket 23. Both the first sealing gasket 23 and the sealing filler 24 are detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw 30. Both the first sealing gasket 23 and the sealing filler 24 serve a sealing function. The first sealing gasket 23 prevents powder in the feeding cylinder 10 from leaking out between one end of the mounting member 21 and the corresponding end of the feeding cylinder 10, thus avoiding pollution of the external environment. The sealing filler 24 prevents powder in the feeding cylinder 10 from leaking out between the first sealing gasket 23 and the screw 30, thus preventing powder from entering the sealed bearing seat 29, thereby avoiding damage to the bearing 291.
[0036] The inner wall of the mounting component 21 has an annular limiting portion 211, which is detachably fitted around the outer periphery of the sealing packing 24. One end of the limiting portion 211 abuts against the first sealing gasket 23. A pressure block 25 is located inside the mounting component 21 and annularly fitted around the outer periphery of the screw 30. The pressure block 25 is located between the sealing packing 25 and the sealing bearing seat 29 and is detachably mounted on the limiting portion 211. The other end of the sealing packing 24 abuts against the pressure block 25. The limiting portion 211 provides radial limiting for the sealing packing 24 and also compresses it, allowing the sealing packing 24 to deform and achieve a seal.
[0037] A sealed bearing housing 29 is located inside the mounting member 21 and surrounds the outer periphery of the screw 30. A bearing 291 is housed within the sealed bearing housing 29, and the bearing 291 is detachably fitted onto the outer periphery of the screw 30. The bearing 291 provides rotational support for the screw 30, and the sealed bearing housing 29 provides mounting support for the bearing 291. In this embodiment, there are two bearings 291, spaced apart along the length of the sealed bearing housing 29. The sealed bearing housing 29 is a conventional bearing housing with a sealing function. A second sealing gasket 26 is sandwiched between the sealing plate 22 and the other end of the mounting member 21. An oil seal structure 27 is located inside the mounting member 21 and sandwiched between the sealing plate 22 and the sealed bearing housing 29. The oil seal structure 27 is detachably fitted onto the outer periphery of the screw 30 and mounted on the sealing plate 22. The second sealing gasket 26 surrounds the outer periphery of the oil seal structure 27, and the sealed bearing housing 29 is detachably mounted on the oil seal structure 27. The second sealing gasket 26, the oil seal structure 27, and the sealed bearing housing 29 each serve a sealing function. The second sealing gasket 26 prevents dust, water, impurities, etc. from the external environment from entering the mounting component 21 through the space between the other end of the mounting component 21 and the sealing plate 22, and subsequently into the sealed bearing housing 29. The oil seal structure 27 and the sealed bearing housing 29 prevent dust, water, impurities, etc. from entering the sealed bearing housing 29 through the space between the sealing plate 22 and the screw 30, thereby protecting the bearing 291, preventing damage to the bearing 291, ensuring the normal operation of the screw feeding mechanism, and extending the service life of the screw feeding mechanism. Through the arrangement of the first sealing gasket 23, the sealing filler 24, the second sealing gasket 26, and the oil seal structure 27, the sealing assembly 20 of this utility model can achieve double sealing.
[0038] One end of the screw 30 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 40. The feed inlet 11 is close to the drive motor 40, which drives the screw 30 to rotate. The drive motor 40 is mounted on the mounting plate 50. The sealing assembly 20 close to the drive motor 40 has its sealing plate 22 connected to the mounting plate 50 via two vertically opposite connecting plates 51. The screw 30 is equipped with helical blades 31, which are located inside the feeding cylinder 10. The rotation of the screw 30 drives the helical blades 31 to rotate. In practical applications, powder enters the feeding cylinder 10 through the feed inlet 11. The drive motor 40 drives the screw 30 and the helical blades 31 to rotate, thereby loosening and conveying the powder to the discharge outlet 12. The powder is then discharged from the discharge outlet 12, thus achieving the conveying process.
[0039] In this embodiment, the oil seal structure 27 includes a skeleton oil seal 271 and an oil seal baffle 28. The oil seal baffle 28 is located inside the mounting member 21 and sandwiched between the sealing plate 22 and the sealing bearing seat 29. A first groove 2811 is provided at the end of the oil seal baffle 28 away from the sealing bearing seat 29, and a second groove 2812 is provided at the end of the oil seal baffle 28 near the sealing bearing seat 29. The second groove 2812 communicates with the first groove 2811, and the inner diameter of the second groove 2812 is larger than the inner diameter of the first groove 2811. The oil seal baffle 28 is detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw 30 via the first groove 2811 and the second groove 2812. The oil seal baffle 28 is detachably mounted on the sealing plate 22. A second sealing gasket 26 is circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the oil seal baffle 28, and the sealing bearing seat 29 is detachably mounted on the oil seal baffle 28. The oil seal baffle 28 has a baffle protrusion 2813 at one end near the sealed bearing housing 29. The baffle protrusion 2813 surrounds the second groove 2812 and is inserted into one end of the sealed bearing housing 29. The baffle protrusion 2813 serves to axially limit the bearing 291. In this embodiment, the baffle protrusion 2813 is in contact with the adjacent bearing 291. The skeleton oil seal 271 mates with the second groove 2812 and is sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw 30. The skeleton oil seal 271 provides a sealing function. The skeleton oil seal 271 and the sealed bearing housing 29 prevent dust, water, impurities, etc. from the external environment from entering the sealed bearing housing 29 from between the sealing plate 22 and the screw 30. The oil seal baffle 28 provides mounting support for the skeleton oil seal 271 and the sealed bearing housing 29.
[0040] Preferably, both the first sealing gasket 23 and the second sealing gasket 26 are asbestos gaskets. The sealing filler 24 is packing, for example, graphite packing. The skeleton oil seal 271 is a lip-shaped skeleton oil seal. Asbestos gaskets, graphite packing, and lip-shaped skeleton oil seals are all suitable for high-temperature environments and can ensure good sealing performance.
[0041] The above structure allows for the replacement of the sealing assembly 20 or only the sealing packing 24 and the skeleton oil seal 271 of the sealing assembly 20.
