Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of large rotating devices, and in particular to a waterproof turntable bearing with staggered baffles for ship rudders. Background Technology

[0002] Slewing bearings are large bearings capable of withstanding combined loads, including large axial and radial loads and overturning moments. They typically feature mounting holes, internal or external gears, lubrication holes, and seals, allowing for a compact host machine design, easy guiding, and convenient maintenance.

[0003] However, due to the harsh operating environment of slewing bearings, high reliability is required, as well as certain requirements for sealing, waterproofing, and corrosion protection. Especially when slewing bearings are used in large rotating devices in coastal and marine environments, they are highly susceptible to corrosion from seawater and other foreign objects. To prevent seawater and other foreign objects from entering and causing premature failure of the slewing bearing, the sealing design and corrosion protection of slewing bearings become particularly important.

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0023] like Figures 1 to 3 The illustrated type of waterproof swivel bearing with staggered baffles for ship rudders includes an outer ring 1 and an end cap 2, such as... Figure 2As shown, the outer ring 1 and end cap 2 are movably connected to the inner ring 5. The inner ring 5 has several rotating grooves 17, and rollers 6 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the rotating grooves 17. The rollers 6 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the outer ring 1. Compared with the ball bearings commonly used in the prior art, the rollers have the advantages of large contact area, uniform load distribution, and greater load-bearing capacity. This roller structure mainly bears radial loads and achieves smooth rotation. The outer ring 1 and end cap 2 are respectively provided with corresponding screw holes 10. The end cap 2 is provided with connecting holes 11 that communicate with the screw holes 10. The screw holes 10 are connected to countersunk screws 12 by threads. The outer ring 1 and end cap 2 are connected by screw holes 10 and countersunk screws 12. This connection structure not only achieves reliable fixation of the components, but also ensures the sealing of the mating surfaces through the preload of the threaded connection.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the outer ring 1 and the end cap 2 are respectively connected to baffles 3 on opposite sides. These baffles 3 form the first waterproof barrier, which effectively blocks the direct intrusion of external water flow and debris through staggered arrangement.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner ring 5 has a first side groove 7 on its side wall, and the end cover 2 has a second side groove 8 on its inner side wall. The first side groove 7 and the second side groove 8 are slidably connected to a number of balls 9. These balls 9 form an axial bearing system, which is responsible for bearing the axial load and overturning moment generated by the ship's rudder system, and ensuring the smooth operation of the bearing under heavy load.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, a sealing groove 16 is provided at the connection between the outer ring 1 and the end cap 2. A sealing ring 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sealing groove 16, and a sealing ring 14 is connected to the outer side of the sealing ring 15. This set of multiple sealing structures constitutes a waterproof system. Its function is to prevent seawater from penetrating into the critical parts inside the bearing through the tight fit of the elastic sealing element.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a countersunk sealing gasket 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting hole 11. The longitudinal section of the countersunk sealing gasket 13 is convex. This unique convex design will generate radial expansion when the countersunk screw 12 is tightened, effectively filling the gap and achieving secondary sealing at the screw connection.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a water-blocking ring 4 is connected to the inner wall of the baffle 3. The water-blocking ring 4 extends into the internal gap of the bearing, forming another waterproof barrier. Even if a small amount of water breaks through the outer protection, it will be guided out by the water-blocking ring 4, further ensuring that the inside of the bearing is dry.

[0029] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0030] First, the roller 6 is installed in the roller groove 17 of the inner ring 5 to form a complete rolling unit. Then, the assembled inner ring 5 is installed into the inner wall of the outer ring 1, so that the roller 6 and the inner wall of the outer ring 1 form a rotational fit. Then, the balls 9 are arranged on the first side groove 7 of the inner ring 5, so that the balls 9 simultaneously enter the second side groove 8 of the end cover 2 to form a complete axial bearing system. The end cover 2 is aligned with the outer ring 1 and closed, and a convex countersunk sealing gasket 13 is embedded in the connecting hole 11 of the end cover 2. Then, the sealing ring 15 and the sealing ring 14 are installed in the sealing groove 16 of the end cover 2 in sequence. After that, the countersunk screw 12 is screwed through the connecting hole 11 of the end cover 2 into the screw hole 10 of the outer ring 1 to fasten the two together and achieve effective sealing at the connection. Baffles 3 are installed on both sides of the outer ring 1 and the end cover 2, and a water-blocking ring 4 is fixed on the inner wall of the baffle 3 to complete the assembly of the entire bearing and form a multi-layer waterproof barrier composed of baffle 3, water-blocking ring 4, sealing ring 15 and sealing ring 14.

[0031] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
