Device
Technical field
The application be the applying date be on January 15th, 2015, Application No. 2015100208076, invention entitled based on from
The divisional application of the original application of mechanical seal face friction torque measurement apparatus of power supply and wireless data transmission.
This technology belongs to technical field of measurement and test, more particularly to a kind of examination carrying out mechanical seal face friction torque measurement
Experiment device.
Background technology
The continuous deterioration of the increasingly in short supply and environment of resource, proposes the production requirement of zero leakage and zero-emission to enterprise.
Mechanical seal, as the main shaft seal of equipment dynamic in commercial production, on the one hand provides safeguard for the leakproof of equipment, on the other hand,
Due to end face frictional wear, also consume shaft power.For this reason, people are continually striving to, seek suitable face pressure and material, with
Reduce end-face friction power consumption, extend service life, ensure the sealing of mechanical seal simultaneously again.However, sealing pair match materials
Quality and face pressure whether suitable, concentrated reflection in the size of end face friction torque.
In currently known technology the end face friction torque measuring method of mechanical sealing performance tester have anti-Zhi Lifa and
TRANSFER METHOD.The end face friction torque e measurement technology that be developed by both approaches has 4 kinds:
Dynamometer link is installed on rotary seal chamber and is connected to torque sensor.As mayer (mechanical seal. Beijing: chemical industry publish
Society, 1981) and the proposition such as patent cn103630301 torque sensor measurement seal face friction is installed on rotary seal chamber
Moment of torsion technology.Annular seal space supporting need to be got up by this technology, and the friction that annular seal space rotationally supports exists and can not neglect to measuring accuracy
Depending on impact.
Torque speed sensor is installed between motor and line shaft.As silvaggio(silvaggo j a, lipski
m j, and van bramer k g. successful field operation through seal development
And testing. lubrication engineering, 1987,43 (6): 433-439) and document (high parameter mechanical seal
Testing stand data collection and control system. petroleum machinery, the 1st phase of volume 32 in 2004) etc. propose using in motor and bearing block
Between torque speed sensor is installed measuring mechanical seal face friction torque.During test, the moment of torsion of this commercial measurement is
Total torque on assay device main shaft, close including the friction torque of tested seal face, the frictional resistance moment of base bearing and machinery
Envelope stirring moment of torsion in sealing medium for the rotary part.Frictional resistance moment and machinery due to the base bearing of the axially different power of carrying
Sealing stirring moment of torsion in the sealing medium of different pressures for the rotary part also cannot direct measurement, the generally main shaft under use zero load
The stirring moment of torsion that the frictional resistance moment held and sealing medium are under normal pressure replacing, these measurements all to end face friction torque
Precision brings very big impact;Further, since when mechanical seal test device starts total torque be 5-7 times of normal moment of torsion with
On, so that being equipped with the torque speed sensor of larger stress shaft diameter, and the mechanical seal test device under normally running
End face friction torque less, if with this torque speed sensor measure mechanical seal face friction torque, the axle producing
Strain is less, and certainty of measurement will be relatively low.In order to improve certainty of measurement, the stress shaft diameter of selected torque sensor just should be relatively
Little, but the less stress axiss of diameter easily produce plastic deformation again and even rupture, so certainty of measurement and stress axiss size
Can not get both.
Torque sensor is installed between stationary seat and stationary ring.(mechanical seal controllability Study and its engineering should for Sun Jianjun
Discussion with problem. mechanical engineering journal, 2005,41(2): 15-19) proposition such as moment of torsion is installed between stationary seat and stationary ring
Sensor measures the method for seal face friction torque it is simply that small-range major diameter tubular torque sensor is connected on stationary seat
And stationary ring between, friction torque produced by stationary ring deflection is rotarily driven by rotating ring and is put down by the resistive torque of torque sensor
Weighing apparatus, to record mechanical seal face friction torque.The advantage of this method is that sensor construction is simple, easy for installation, particularly
The frictional resistance moment eliminating o shape circle between stationary ring and stationary seat is to the impact measuring, but small-range major diameter tubular moment of torsion passes
Manufacturing and designing of sensor has difficulties, and fails always to obtain effective breakthrough.For the mechanical seal with corrugated tube stationary ring, end face
Friction torque can adopt patent zl 200610039084.5 " multi-parameter controllable high-rotating speed mechanical sealing performance tester "
In method measurement, the measuring system described in the method passes by stationary seat, guide cylinder, the fan-shaped gear piece of angular displacement transmission, angular displacement
Sensor and little gear composition;Guide cylinder one end is closely connected with stationary ring filler ring inner hole thread, and the other end kink of guide cylinder is quiet
Reach outside annular seal space in ring seat gland endoporus and by axle sleeve.Stretched out outside annular seal space by angular displacement sensor measurement
The skew of guide cylinder, can measure the change that machinery is sealed in flexible member windup-degree before and after work, further according to flexible member
Rigidimeter calculates end face friction torque.This measuring method can make the angular displacement of stationary ring pass to guide cylinder without loss, extremely
Fan-shaped gear piece, to little gear, then to angular displacement sensor, it is to avoid the interference to measured value for the additional torque.But it is present in sector
Driving error between gear piece and little gear drastically influence certainty of measurement.
The mechanical seal face friction torque measurement method that patent cn102183327b is related to, places on stationary ring breach
Coin type torque sensor.With the null principle of moment balance of total torque suffered by stationary ring during normal operation, by sensor institute
Survey each moment of resistance and be added as end face friction torque.Support for by rotating ring, stationary ring, stationary ring sealing o type circle, load sensor
In frame, load sensor, the mechanical seal measuring system of end face bearing, end face bearing block and annular seal space end cap composition, 2 loadings
Sensor axis are symmetrically mounted on the load sensor support of annular seal space end cap endoporus side, and force-detecting position tangentially becomes axial symmetry
It is arranged in the side of 2 anti-rotation pin-and-holes of stationary ring.In work, due to the effect of end face friction torque mm between dynamic and static ring, quiet
Ring has the trend rotating with phantom ring, and this trend is sealed the friction of annular seal space end cap endoporus suffered by o shape circle by stationary ring
Moment of resistance m1s that the load sensor installed at moment of resistance mf and anti-rotation pin-and-hole side produces is balanced, i.e. mm=mf+m1s.
Frictional resistance moment mf of wherein stationary seat endoporus and o shape circle, can be arranged on 2 anti-rotation pin-and-hole sides of stationary ring in annular seal space
Load sensor makes a reservation in advance;Moment of resistance ms that the load sensor installed at anti-rotation pin-and-hole side under working condition produces is by passing
The tangential force equivalent of the stationary ring periphery that sensor records is multiplied by the distance between 2 load sensor force-detecting positions (arm of force) and obtains.This
Method shortcoming is equally obvious, because the frictional resistance moment of annular seal space end cap endoporus suffered by o shape circle will be measured, and o shape circle is because of its material
Matter reason, between individuality, coefficient of friction is also not quite similar, and causes end face friction torque measurement precision not good enough.
