As the key equipment of material conveying, screw conveyor plays an irreplaceable role in many industrial fields. As an important component of the screw conveyor, the rubber sealing ring plays a vital role in its normal operation and the safe transportation of materials. This paper will discuss the application and importance of rubber sealing ring in screw conveyor.
First, screw conveyor introduction
The screw conveyor, also known as the screw feeder, is a conveyor that uses the rotation of the screw blade to push the material in a predetermined direction. It has the characteristics of simple structure, stable operation and high transportation efficiency, and is widely used in food, chemical industry, building materials and other industries.
Second, the role of rubber sealing ring
In the screw conveyor, rubber seals are mainly used in bearings and shaft seals to prevent material leakage and the intrusion of external impurities. Its main functions include:
1. Sealing effect: The rubber sealing ring forms an effective sealing barrier by tightly fitting the gap between the shaft and the bearing seat to prevent material leakage from the gap.
2. Cushioning: The rubber sealing ring has a certain elasticity and cushioning performance, which can absorb the vibration and impact between the shaft and the bearing seat to reduce wear and damage.
3. Dust and impurities: rubber sealing ring can block the intrusion of external dust and impurities, and maintain the cleanliness and quality of materials inside the screw conveyor.
V. Summary
As an important part of the screw conveyor, the rubber sealing ring plays a vital role in preventing material leakage and maintaining the normal operation of the equipment. Through reasonable selection, installation and maintenance of rubber seals, it is possible to ensure the stable operation of the screw conveyor and the safe transportation of materials. With the advancement of technology and innovation of materials, the performance and life of rubber seals will be further improved in the future, providing a more reliable guarantee for the application and development of screw conveyors.
