Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packing seals, specifically a packing clamping force compensation structure. Background Technology
[0002] In many industrial sectors of the chemical industry, reaction vessels, as critical reaction containers, play a vital role in the production process and product quality due to their stable operation and cleanliness. A stirring device is installed in the reaction vessel to agitate the reactants. Generally, the main shaft of the stirring assembly is sealed to the vessel body using a packing seal.
[0003] For example, patent CN208302752U discloses a sealing and cooling device for a stirring shaft of a reactor, including a bottom cover fixed to the lower end of the stirring shaft and a sealing box provided above the bottom cover. A mechanical seal is provided above the sealing box. The stirring shaft passes through the bottom cover and the sealing box. A packing box is provided between the sealing box and the bottom cover. A sealing cavity is formed between the packing box and the stirring shaft. Sealing packing is provided in the sealing cavity. A compression ring is provided in the sealing box.
[0004] The aforementioned patent improves the cooling box by changing it to a fully enclosed cooling system, which enhances the cooling effect, increases the water flow area, and the increased contact surface can cool both the bottom packing seal and the upper mechanical seal, thus achieving a triple sealing effect, including packing seal, liquid seal, and mechanical seal.
[0005] However, the drawback of the aforementioned patent is that, due to the internal pressure generated during reactor operation, the packing seal is gradually pushed outwards by this pressure. This pressure causes the packing itself to deform and shrink. Although the clamping ring prevents the packing from escaping the sealing chamber, it loses its compressive effect on the deformed and shrunken packing, leading to a decrease in sealing performance. To maintain the sealing effect, the position of the clamping ring needs to be adjusted after a period of use to keep it in a state of constant compression of the packing. This results in the packing seal requiring tightening after a period of use, making the operation cumbersome.
[0006] For example, authorization
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to improve such a structure to overcome the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 A packing compression force compensation structure includes a reactor body 1; the top of the reactor body 1 is integrally formed with a packing cavity 2, a rotating shaft 3 passes through the packing cavity 2, and a blocking annular portion 201 is provided at the lower end of the packing cavity 2.
[0025] Meanwhile, a sealing packing 4 is provided between the outer wall of the rotating shaft 3 and the inner wall of the packing cavity 2, wherein the lower end of the sealing packing 4 abuts against the upper end of the blocking annular part 201.
[0026] A clamping ring 5 is also provided above the sealing packing 4, and the upper end of the sealing packing 4 abuts against the lower end of the clamping ring 5.
[0027] The top of the packing cavity 2 is provided with a first connecting flange 202; the top of the clamping ring 5 is provided with a second connecting flange 501; the second connecting flange 501 and the first connecting flange 202 are connected by a number of clamping bolts 6.
[0028] The first connecting flange 202 is provided with a plurality of first connecting holes 203 arranged in a circular array, and the second connecting flange 501 is provided with a plurality of second connecting holes 502 arranged in a circular array. The first connecting holes 203 and the second connecting holes 502 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. The clamping bolt 6 passes through the first connecting holes 203 and the second connecting holes 502 to connect the second connecting flange 501 to the first connecting flange 202.
[0029] In this design, six of the first connecting holes 203 and six of the second connecting holes 502 are provided.
[0030] The clamping bolt 6 includes a clamping screw 601 and a clamping nut 602. The clamping screw 601 passes through the first connecting hole 203 and the second connecting hole 502 in sequence and is threadedly connected to the clamping nut 602.
[0031] It is worth noting that a disc spring assembly 7 is also fitted onto the clamping screw 601. The upper and lower ends of the disc spring assembly 7 abut against the clamping nut 602 and the second connecting flange 501, respectively. The disc spring assembly 7 is composed of several stacked disc springs.
[0032] When using this utility model,
[0033] In this solution, due to the presence of the disc spring assembly 7, the sealing packing can always be compressed. When the sealing packing itself deforms and shrinks, the release force of the disc spring assembly 7 drives the compression ring 5 to move downward, so that the compression ring 5 can compress the sealing packing; thus compensating for the decrease in sealing effect caused by the shrinkage of the packing.
[0034] Meanwhile, in this scheme, the inner wall of the blocking annular part 201 is also provided with a number of sequentially arranged annular sealing teeth 9, and a series of interception gaps and expansion cavities are formed between the outer wall of the rotating shaft 3 and the adjacent annular sealing teeth 9. When the sealed medium passes through the gap of the tortuous labyrinth, a throttling effect is generated to achieve the purpose of preventing leakage.
[0035] In this design, the labyrinth seal formed by the annular sealing teeth 9 and the packing seal formed by the sealing packing constitute a composite sealing mechanism, which further improves the sealing effect of the reactor.
