The utility model discloses a spiral wear ring sealing structure of a lead-
bismuth pump, which belongs to the technical field of fluid
mechanical equipment and comprises a rotating
impeller, and a hollow annular sealing structure is arranged between the outer edge of the rotating
impeller and the inner wall of a pump casing to form a wear ring gap.
Helical teeth are arranged on the outer wall face of the sealing structure, the tooth profile of the
helical teeth forms a
helical channel, the
helical channel spirally ascends in the axial direction, the direction of the
helical channel is opposite to the rotating direction of the
impeller, and the three-dimensional
distortion of the helical teeth has an inclination
angle alpha in the radial direction. Due to the fact that the rotating direction of the spiral groove channel is opposite to that of the impeller,
leakage flow has the tendency of being pushed reversely, leakage of gap fluid is hindered, hydraulic loss is reduced, efficiency is improved, certain reverse
axial force can be possibly generated,
axial force generated by other components is helped to be balanced, and the
hydraulic stability of a pump set is improved.
