Convex step shaft magnetic fluid sealing device
Technical Field
The invention relates to a convex step shaft magnetic fluid sealing device, and belongs to the field of mechanical engineering sealing.
Background
The magnetic fluid seal is to seal gas and liquid by means of magnetic fluid seal ring formed by magnetic fluid under the action of strong magnetic field, and because it is contacted and sealed with the seal shaft by means of magnetic fluid, it can prevent direct friction between seal shaft and seal element and reduce additional load, and in addition, it also has the characteristics of zero leakage, high reliability and simple structure, etc. Although the technology of the magnetic fluid on vacuum low-pressure sealing is mature and widely applied, a plurality of problems are not solved on high-pressure gas sealing and liquid sealing, for example, the sealing pressure of the magnetic fluid is too low, the sealed medium can cause the deterioration of the magnetic fluid to cause the rapid failure of the sealing, the sealing difficulty is large, and a certain difference exists from the practical application. Therefore, how to reasonably design the parameters of the magnetic fluid sealing structure, improve the utilization efficiency of the permanent magnet and enhance the sealing pressure resistance is also a significant research content of the current magnetic fluid sealing technology.
One of the methods for improving the pressure resistance of the magnetic fluid seal under a large gap is to increase the number of magnetic sources in the magnetic circuit of the magnetic fluid seal and improve the shape of the pole piece, such as the sealing device described in reference 1 (patent publication No. CN 204805552U) and the sealing device described in reference 2 (patent publication No. CN 202418592U). Although the two sealing devices described in the above documents have greatly improved sealing performance with respect to a common magnetic fluid, there is still room for further improvement in the sealing performance of the existing sealing structure.
The magnetic fluid is not magnetic in a static state, and only shows magnetism under the action of an external magnetic field. The magnetic particles and the carrier liquid are integrated, so that the magnetic fluid has the magnetism of common magnetic materials and the liquidity of liquid, and has a plurality of unique properties.
Compared with the common single magnetic source magnetic fluid seal or the common multi-magnetic source magnetic fluid seal, the existing sealing device increases the strength of magnetic field force, so that the sealing performance is greatly improved, but the requirement of high sealing performance in high-speed and heavy-load occasions cannot be met.
