Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of natural gas compressor technology, and in particular relates to a compressor crankcase skeleton oil seal. Background Technology
[0002] The compressor crankcase skeleton oil seal is a sealing device installed at the connection between the compressor crankcase and the drive column (crankshaft). It is mainly used to prevent the lubricating oil in the crankcase from leaking out, while blocking external dust, moisture and other impurities from entering, so as to ensure the normal lubrication and operation of the compressor. Its structure is usually based on the skeleton rubber ring, in conjunction with positioning ring, jacket, pressurizing assembly and other components, and achieves the sealing function through mechanical fixing and elastic compression.
[0003] Under high-pressure conditions, the sealing performance of the drive shaft of a natural gas compressor is significantly compromised. The oil seal relies on the interference fit of the rubber lip to achieve a seal. Under continuous high pressure, the rubber material is prone to creep, which increases the gap between the lip and the shaft surface, leading to leakage. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a compressor crankcase skeleton oil seal that adopts a dynamic compression sealing method, continuously applying pressure to the sealing ring to ensure a tight fit between the rubber ring and the shaft surface, thereby improving the sealing effect. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a compressor crankcase skeleton oil seal that uses a dynamic compression sealing method to continuously apply pressure to the sealing ring, ensuring that the rubber ring fits tightly against the shaft surface and improving the sealing effect, thereby solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] Preferably, the positioning ring is pressed into the inner cavity of the annular groove, and the inner cavity of the jacket is provided with an arc groove that matches the positioning ring.
[0007] Preferably, a first screw is provided through the front and rear sides of the positioning ring, and the two positioning rings are fixedly connected by the first screw.

[0021] In the following description, embodiments of the compressor crankcase skeleton oil seal of this utility model will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Figure 1-4 This invention illustrates a compressor crankcase oil seal according to an embodiment of the present invention. It includes a rotatable transmission column 2 installed within the crankcase 1. A sealing assembly 3 is provided on the surface of the transmission column 2. Two jackets 4 are fitted onto the surface of the crankcase 1. The sealing assembly 3 includes a skeleton rubber ring 31 fitted onto the surface of the transmission column 2. Two positioning rings 32 are fitted onto the surface of the skeleton rubber ring 31. An annular groove 33 adapted to the positioning rings 32 is formed on the surface of the skeleton rubber ring 31. The positioning rings 32 are pressed into the inner cavity of the annular groove 33. An arcuate groove 35 adapted to the positioning rings 32 is formed in the inner cavity of the jacket 4. Through the cooperation of the annular groove 33 and the arcuate groove 35, a stable installation space is provided for the positioning rings 32, ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the jackets 4, the skeleton rubber ring 31, and the positioning rings 32, thus ensuring the stability of the skeleton rubber ring 31 during the sealing process. The positioning ring 32 has a first screw 34 through its front and rear sides, and the two positioning rings 32 are fixedly connected by the first screw 34. The top of the jacket 4 has a second screw 54 through its front and rear sides, and the two jackets 4 are fixedly connected by the second screw 54. The surface of the two jackets 4 is covered with a sealing sleeve 55, which is welded and fixed to the crankcase 1. The sealing sleeve 55 is used to shield and protect the jackets 4 and the sealing assembly 3, thereby preventing foreign objects from entering their interior and extending the service life of the oil seal. The inner cavity of the two jackets 4 is provided with a pressure assembly 5, which includes multiple arc-shaped pressure plates 51 rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the jacket 4. An arc-shaped pressure groove 52 is opened on the right side of the surface of the skeleton rubber ring 31, and the arc-shaped pressure plates 51 are pressed into the inner cavity of the arc-shaped pressure groove 52. The surface of the multiple arc-shaped pressure plates 51 is clamped with annular springs 53.
[0023] Working principle: When using this utility model, the user first places the skeleton rubber ring 31 on the surface of the transmission column 2, then the user engages the two positioning rings 32 in the inner cavity of the annular groove 33 and fixes the two positioning rings 32 with the first screw 34. Then the user places the two clips 4 on the surface of the skeleton rubber ring 31, so that the arc groove 35 covers the surface of the positioning ring 32 and the arc-shaped pressure plate 51 is located in the inner cavity of the arc-shaped pressure groove 52. Then the clips 4 are fixed with the second screw 54, and the annular spring 53 is stretched and placed on the surface of the arc-shaped pressure plate 51, so that the multiple arc-shaped pressure plates 51 have a tension force towards the axis of the transmission column 2. The arc-shaped pressure plates 51 elastically compress the inner wall of the arc-shaped pressure groove 52. During use, the arc-shaped pressure plates 51 continuously compress the inner wall of the arc-shaped pressure groove 52, so that the skeleton rubber ring 31 is tightly attached to the surface of the transmission column 2, and the connection between the transmission column 2 and the crankcase 1 is sealed.
[0024] In summary, the compressor crankcase oil seal, through the setting of the sealing component 3, seals the surface of the transmission column 2 and the connection position of the crankcase 1. At the same time, with the cooperation of the jacket 4 and the pressurizing component 5, the skeleton rubber ring 31 is continuously tightened and sealed, thus achieving the purpose of active tightening sealing and strong sealing performance.
