Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift gearbox technology, and more specifically, to a sealing structure for the output shaft of a forklift gearbox. Background Technology
[0002] A forklift gearbox is a mechanical transmission system composed of a series of gears and bearings. Its main function is to control the speed and direction of travel of the forklift. During use, the forklift gearbox can convert the torque on the drive shaft into different speeds and torques according to the driver's needs to adapt to different working conditions. In order to prevent the lubricating oil in the gearbox from flowing out, it is necessary to seal the output shaft and the gearbox.
[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN218818031U discloses a novel sealing device for a mechanical forklift gearbox, comprising a gearbox wall, an end cover, a deep groove ball bearing, an output shaft, a insertion groove, a pluggable protective retaining ring structure, and a connecting seat. The end cover is located on the left side of the gearbox wall; the deep groove ball bearing is embedded in the middle of the gearbox wall. The arrangement of the retaining ring, retaining groove, positive oil seal, reverse oil seal, end cover, and output shaft facilitates dual oil seal operation during use, achieving both sealing and dustproofing effects. The arrangement of the end cover, insertion groove, retaining ring, positive oil seal, and reverse oil seal allows the reverse oil seal to be positioned outside the positive oil seal, providing dustproofing and preventing weathering of the positive oil seal due to environmental factors, thus maintaining its sealing performance.
[0004] However, the above patent still has the following shortcomings: when the gearbox output shaft drives the drive axle on the forklift to rotate, the output shaft is prone to a certain deviation in force. Relying on only one bearing to support the output shaft will cause the output shaft to squeeze one side of the oil seal, which will affect the sealing quality of the oil seal. Therefore, we propose a sealing structure for the output shaft of the forklift gearbox. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a sealing structure for the output shaft of a forklift gearbox.

The use of the first bearing and the second bearing can avoid the output shaft from being biased due to force on the sealing part, thus ensuring the quality of the seal between the output shaft and the box wall.
[0013] (2) In this utility model, the sealing plate is installed on the outside of the cam by the cooperation of bolts and screw holes. The sealing plate and the cam are sealed by the cooperation between the first sealing ring groove and the first sealing ring column.
