[0002] The spindle is the shaft that drives the workpiece, grinding wheel, or cutting tool to rotate. It typically consists of a spindle, bearings, and transmission components (gears or pulleys), and is mainly used to support transmission parts and transmit motion and torque.

[0003] During the grinding process driven by the spindle, liquid is sprayed to achieve cooling, lubrication, chip removal, and dust reduction, thereby improving processing efficiency, extending equipment life, and ensuring operational safety. Therefore, the spindle needs to be designed to be waterproof to prevent moisture from entering the spindle or motor, thus avoiding equipment malfunctions and safety hazards.

[0004] The utility model with authorization announcement number CN208797761U discloses a motor for manually adjusting the axial feed of the output shaft, which includes a labyrinth inner cover and a labyrinth outer cover for protective purposes. However, its structure is too complex, consisting of two hollow cylinders fitted together, and its waterproof effect is limited. Utility Model Content

[0035] Reference Figures 1-10 A waterproof labyrinth structure for a main shaft includes a front cover 2 fixed to the front end of the motor housing 1, and a main shaft 3 rotatably installed inside the housing 1. The main shaft 3 extends axially to the outside of the front cover 2 and is fixedly connected to the mold fixing seat 4. A waterproof labyrinth assembly is installed between the front cover 2 and the mold fixing seat 4, which includes a fixed ring 5 and a moving ring 6, which are rotatably fitted together. The fixed ring 5 and the moving ring 6 can be integrally molded from rubber, plastic, etc., or made of metal or other materials. The fixed ring 5 and the moving ring 6 can be 3D printed, or made by metal machining or welding, etc.

[0036] The fixed ring 5 includes a fixed ring fixing ring 50, which is fastened to the front end cover 2, and also includes a fixed ring outer ring 51 and a fixed ring inner ring 52, which are preferably concentrically arranged to ensure accuracy and rotational stability. The first ends of the two are sealed and fixed radially by a sealing ring 53, and an annular fixed ring groove 54 is formed between the second ends of the two. The second end of the fixed ring outer ring 51 is provided with an outer ring retaining ring 55, which extends radially toward the fixed ring inner ring 52, but does not contact it; the end face of the outer ring retaining ring 55 is provided with an outer water baffle ring 56 along the axial direction, which extends toward the end face of the moving ring 6, but does not contact it; the outer wall of the second end of the fixed ring inner ring 52 is provided with an inner water baffle ring 57 along the radial direction, and the outer water baffle ring 56 and the inner water baffle ring 57 do not contact each other.

[0037] The moving ring 6 includes a moving ring fixing ring 60, which is sealed and fastened to the mold fixing seat 4, and also includes a moving ring sleeve ring 61 arranged axially at the first end of the moving ring fixing ring 60, which is inserted axially into the fixed ring groove 54. The outer wall of the first end of the moving ring sleeve ring 61 is provided with a moving ring water baffle ring 62 in the radial direction.

[0038] In use, the fixed ring 5 is sealed and fixedly connected to the front cover 2 through the fixed ring fixing ring 50, and the moving ring 6 is sealed and fixedly connected to the grinding wheel fixing seat 4 through the moving ring fixing ring 60. When the spindle 3 rotates, it drives the grinding wheel fixing seat 4, the grinding wheel installed on the end face of the grinding wheel fixing seat 4, and the moving ring 6 to rotate synchronously. The fixed ring 5 and the moving ring 6 are rotatably fitted together and will not hinder the operation of the grinding wheel.

[0039] Spindle 3 can be installed horizontally during use (e.g., ...). Figure 1 (as shown) or vertically mounted (e.g.) Figure 2(As shown).

[0040] When the spindle 3 is installed horizontally, the outer retaining ring 55, the moving ring water-blocking ring 62, and the inner water-blocking ring 57 will form multiple maze-like barriers to prevent water from flowing inward. When the spindle 3 is not working, the liquid will automatically flow out from the bottom to the ground under its own weight. When the spindle 3 is working, the liquid will be thrown out under centrifugal force.

[0041] When the spindle 3 is installed vertically and the mold mounting base 4 faces the ground, there is no need to worry about waterproofing, because the liquid will automatically flow to the ground and cannot enter the interior.

[0042] When the spindle 3 is installed vertically and the mold mounting base 4 faces the sky, the outer water baffle ring 56, the moving ring sleeve ring 61, the inner water baffle ring 57, etc. will form multiple maze-like barriers to prevent water from flowing inward. In addition, the gap between the moving ring 6 and the fixed ring 5 is very small, making it difficult for liquid to splash in. When the spindle 3 is working, the liquid will be thrown out under centrifugal force.

[0043] This spindle features a waterproof labyrinth structure with multiple waterproof features along the radial and axial directions, meeting various installation requirements of the spindle and offering excellent applicability and superior waterproof performance.

[0044] Refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the fixed ring 50 and the outer ring 51 are fixed side by side along the axial direction, and the fixed ring 50 is detachably threaded to the outer wall of the front cover 2, making installation and disassembly convenient.

[0045] Refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments, the fixing ring 50 and the inner ring 52 are fixed side by side along the axial direction, and the fixing ring 50 is detachably threaded to the inner wall of the front cover 2, making installation and disassembly convenient.

[0046] Refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the fixed ring 50 is radially disposed on the outer wall of the first end of the outer ring 51. The end face of the fixed ring 50 is in contact with the end face of the front cover 2, and the end face of the moving ring 60 is in contact with the end face of the mold. Both of them are locked together by fasteners 7, which are convenient for installation and disassembly. The fasteners can be screws, bolts, or other fasteners.

[0047] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
