Its main function is to enclose the packing or directly form a sealing cavity with the shaft / valve stem to prevent the internal medium from leaking out and to prevent external contaminants from entering. The gland applies adjustable pressure through tightening bolts to ensure that the packing and moving parts maintain appropriate tight contact, achieving an effective dynamic or static sealing effect.

[0025] This utility model provides a multi-spring compression type capping device with a mechanical seal.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The device includes a bushing 1, and a sealing mechanism 2 is provided on the outside of the bushing 1. The sealing mechanism 2 includes a positioning ring 201 and a protective ring 202. The inner walls of the positioning ring 201 and the protective ring 202 are movably connected to the bushing 1, and the outer surface of the protective ring 202 is slidably connected to the positioning ring 201. A sealing kit is installed between the positioning ring 201 and the protective ring 202, which can effectively prevent leakage.

[0028] The outer surface of the retaining ring 204 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 206, and the inner wall of the protective ring 202 is provided with a limiting groove 207 that matches the limiting block 206. Through the coordinated action of the retaining ring 204, the limiting block 206 and the limiting groove 207, the elasticity of all the springs 205 can be balanced, ensuring the tight fit between the stationary ring 208 and the moving ring 210.

[0029] A stationary ring 208 is movably connected to the outer surface of the bushing 1. A sealing ring 209 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the stationary ring 208. A rotating ring 210 is movably connected to one end of the stationary ring 208. A sealing ring 211 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating ring 210. A sealing groove 212 that matches the sealing ring 209 is opened on the outer surface of the rotating ring 210. A sealing groove 213 that matches the sealing ring 211 is opened on the outer surface of the protective ring 202. The sealing effect can be effectively improved by setting the sealing ring 209, the rotating ring 210 and the sealing ring 211.

[0030] The outer surface of the bushing 1 is movably connected to the gland body 214, which covers the stationary ring 208 and the moving ring 210. The gland body 214 is used for positioning and fastening. The outer surface of the gland body 214 is fixedly connected to the sealing ring 215. The outer surface of the stationary ring 208 is provided with a sealing groove 216 that matches the sealing ring 215. The sealing groove 216 can improve the sealing effect of the sealing ring 215.

[0031] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The bushing 1 is provided with a cooling mechanism 3. The cooling mechanism 3 includes a cooling ring 301. The inner wall of the cooling ring 301 is movably connected to the bushing 1. The outer surface of the cooling ring 301 is fixedly connected to a hose 302. The end of the hose 302 away from the cooling ring 301 passes through the positioning ring 201 and is fixedly connected to the protective ring 202. The cooling ring 301 is filled with refrigerant, which can exchange heat with the refrigerant in the hose 302. The hose 302 is made of high-toughness heat-resistant material, so it can be stretched and withstand high temperatures.

[0032] A refrigeration device 303 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cooling ring 301. A connecting pipe 304 is fixedly connected to the output end of the refrigeration device 303. The end of the connecting pipe 304 away from the refrigeration device 303 is fixedly connected to the cooling ring 301. A temperature sensor is installed inside the cooling ring 301. When the temperature inside the cooling ring 301 is sensed to rise, it will immediately send a command to the refrigeration device 303 to turn it on. The refrigeration device 303 is a common electrical device in the prior art. This application will not elaborate on its model and internal structure.

[0033] The structural diagrams of the components shown in the attached figures are exemplary. The specific implementation should be adapted and optimized by considering the functional requirements, assembly conditions and process limitations in the actual application scenario, and adjusting the structural parameters, size specifications and connection methods accordingly.

[0034] Working principle: First, the stationary ring 208 and the rotating ring 210 are installed on the outer surface of the bushing 1. Under the combined action of fluid pressure and the elasticity of the spring 205, they are sealed together. At the same time, the sealing rings 209, 211, and 215 provide multiple seals. During the sealing process, the damping rod 203 and the spring 205 work together to buffer and reduce the vibration during shaft rotation. In addition, the clamping ring 204 applies force to the protective ring 202, effectively preventing uneven distribution of the spring force of the spring 205 due to shaft tilt or excessive vibration. This can lead to localized misalignment and wear of the sealing surfaces of the stationary ring 208 and the rotating ring 210, causing leakage. Secondly, a temperature sensor is installed inside the cooling ring 301. When the sensor detects an increase in temperature inside the cooling ring 301, it can send a command to the cooling device 303, causing the cooling device 303 to turn on and cool the cooling ring 301. Through the synergistic effect of the hose 302, heat exchange can be effectively carried out on the sealing components in the device, thereby effectively preventing leakage caused by deformation of the sealing components due to frictional heat from shaft rotation, and thus improving the safety and reliability of the device.
