The International Application was published under PCT Article 21(2) in a language other than English.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to sliding components suitable, for example, as mechanical seals, bearings, and other sliding units. More particularly, the present invention relates to sliding parts such as seal rings or bearings that require friction reduction by fluid intervention between sliding faces, and prevention of fluid leakage from the sliding faces.
BACKGROUND ART
In some mechanical seals, which are an example of sliding components, the sliding face of a sliding part is provided with fine grooves called a surface texture for improvement of lubricity.
The present applicant has filed before an application for an invention in which, to achieve both sealing and lubrication, for example, a positive pressure generation mechanism including spiral grooves or dimples that directly communicate with the high-pressure fluid side is provided on the high-pressure side of one of sliding faces sliding relative to each other of a pair of sliding parts, and a negative pressure generation mechanism formed by a reversed Rayleigh step mechanism on the low-pressure side, and a pressure release groove is provided between the spiral grooves or dimples and the reversed Rayleigh step mechanism, and the pressure release groove and the reversed Rayleigh step mechanism communicate with the high-pressure fluid side through radial grooves and are isolated from the low-pressure fluid side by a sealing face (see Patent Document 1).
The invention disclosed in Patent Document 1 (hereinafter, referred to as a “conventional art”) is an invention excellent in the lubricity of the sliding faces and sealing performance of preventing a high-pressure fluid that is a sealed fluid from leaking from the high-pressure fluid side to the low-pressure fluid side. However, the invention is not configured to prevent a low-pressure fluid drawn into the negative pressure generation mechanism provided on the low-pressure side from being discharged to the high-pressure fluid side.
Therefore, the invention cannot address a case where different fluids are present on both sides of the sliding faces, and the mixing of the two fluids can cause danger or cause the sealed fluid to be altered in quality by chemical reaction or the like.

 DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
Hereinafter with reference to the drawings, a mode for carrying out this invention will be described illustratively based on embodiments. However, the dimensions, materials, shapes, relative arrangements, and the like of components described in the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention only to them, unless otherwise described explicitly.
First Embodiment
With reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 , a sliding component according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The present embodiment will be described with a case where parts constituting a mechanical seal are sliding parts, as an example.
FIG. 1 is a vertical cross-sectional view showing an example of a mechanical seal, in which a first fluid is present on the inner peripheral side of sliding faces S, and a second fluid is present on the outer peripheral side. The mechanical seal is configured to lubricate the sliding faces and to prevent mixing of the first fluid and the second fluid of different kinds. For example, an annular rotating-side seal ring 3, which is provided via a sleeve 2 at a rotating shaft 1 to drive a pump impeller (not shown) on the second-fluid side, in a state of being integrally rotatable with the rotating shaft 1, and an annular stationary-side seal ring 5, which is provided at a pump housing 4 in non-rotating and axially movable states, slide in close contact on each other's sliding faces S ground by lapping or the like, by means of a coiled wave spring 6 and a bellows 7 both axially biasing the stationary-side seal ring 5.
That is, the mechanical seal prevents, at each other's sliding faces S of the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5, the first fluid, e.g. water, and the second fluid, e.g. oil, of different kinds from being mixed together.
Although the present example describes a case where the first fluid is present on the inner peripheral side of the sliding faces and the second fluid on the outer peripheral side, the opposite has the same effects as those in the present example.
FIGS. 2A to 2C show a plan view of a sliding face of a sliding part according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and describe a case where a surface texture is provided to the sliding face of the stationary-side seal ring 5 in FIG. 1 , as an example.
Note that the same applies to a case where a surface texture is provided to the sliding face of the rotating-side seal ring 3.
In FIG. 2A, the rotational direction of the mating sliding face S that slides relative to the sliding face S of the stationary-side seal ring 5 is a counterclockwise direction.
Note that when the mating sliding face S rotates in a clockwise direction, it is only necessary to reverse the orientation of the surface texture on the sliding face S of the stationary-side seal ring 5.
The sliding face S of the stationary-side seal ring 5 is provided with a dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 including dynamic pressure generation grooves 11 located on the first-fluid side, is provided with a first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 including a first negative pressure generation groove 13 located on the center side of the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10, and is provided with a second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 including second negative pressure generation grooves 15 located on the second-fluid side of the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12.
Between the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 and the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14, an annular first circumferential groove 16 is provided which is deeper than the groove depth of the dynamic pressure generation grooves 11, the first negative pressure generation groove 13, and the second negative pressure generation grooves 15. The first circumferential groove 16 is isolated from the first-fluid side and the second-fluid side by lands R.
Further, in the present example, an annular second circumferential groove 17 is provided between the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 and the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12. The second circumferential groove 17 is connected to the first-fluid side through radial deep grooves 18, and is isolated from the second-fluid side by a land R.
The dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 is formed by a Rayleigh step mechanism. The dynamic pressure generation grooves 11 are formed by grooves (hollows or recesses) of the Rayleigh step mechanism.
The first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 is formed by a reversed Rayleigh step mechanism. The first negative pressure generation groove 13 is formed by a groove of the reversed Rayleigh step mechanism.
The second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 is formed by a spiral mechanism. The second negative pressure generation grooves 15 are formed by grooves of the spiral mechanism.
A downstream end of the groove 13 of the reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12 is connected to the first-fluid side through a radial deep groove 18 and isolated from the second-fluid side by a land R.
The grooves 15 of the spiral mechanism 14 are connected to the second-fluid side and isolated from the first-fluid side by a land R.
The grooves 11 of the Rayleigh step mechanism 10 are connected at an upstream end thereof to the first-fluid side through the radial deep grooves 18, and are isolated from the second-fluid side by a land R.
The lands R mean smooth portions of the sliding face S.
The dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) generates dynamic pressure (positive pressure) to cause the first fluid to enter between the sliding faces to increase a fluid film, and thereby improves lubrication performance.
The first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) generates negative pressure to draw in the first fluid present between the sliding faces and discharges it to the first-fluid side, and prevents the first fluid that has entered between the sliding faces from entering the second-fluid side that is the outer peripheral side.
The second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) generates negative pressure to draw in the second fluid present between the sliding faces and discharges it to the second-fluid side, and prevents the second fluid that has entered between the sliding faces from entering the first-fluid side that is the inner peripheral side.
The first circumferential groove 16 prevents interference between the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) and the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) to enhance their respective suction effects and discharge effects.
The second circumferential groove 17 prevents interference between the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) and the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) to enhance their respective suction effects and discharge effects.
As clearly shown in FIG. 3 , the grooves 15 of the spiral mechanism 14 are provided in such a manner as to spread from upstream to downstream, and have a downstream end connected to the second-fluid side.
Note that in the present description, the plane shape of the individual grooves 15 themselves may be a curved shape as shown in FIG. 3 , or may be a linear shape. Also in a linear shape, the grooves 15 only need to be provided in such a manner as to spread from upstream to downstream.
Upstream ends of the grooves 15 may be connected to the first circumferential groove 16 as shown in FIGS. 2A and 3 , or may be isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land as shown in FIG. 2B.
Further, as shown in FIG. 2C, even when the first circumferential groove 16 and the second circumferential groove 17 are not provided, the object of the present invention can be achieved.
The depths and the widths of the grooves 11, 13, and 15, and the first circumferential groove 16, the second circumferential groove 17, and the radial deep grooves 18 are determined suitably according to the diameters of the sliding parts 3 and 5, the sliding face width, and relative movement speed, and sealing and lubrication conditions and the like.
As an example, the depth of the first circumferential groove 16, the second circumferential groove 17, and the radial deep grooves 18 is ten times or more the depth of the grooves 11, 13, and 15.
Next, with reference to FIG. 4 , the cross-sectional shape of the sliding face of the stationary-side seal ring 5 will be described.
In FIG. 4 , the dynamic pressure generation groove 11 (groove 11) of the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10), the first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13) of the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12), and the second negative pressure generation groove 15 (groove 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are formed on the sliding face S that slides on the mating sliding face S.
The first circumferential groove 16 is provided between the first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13) and the second negative pressure generation groove 15 (groove 15). The second circumferential groove 17 is provided between the dynamic pressure generation groove 11 (groove 11) and the first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13).
Next, with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B, a dynamic pressure (positive pressure) generation mechanism formed by a Rayleigh step mechanism or the like, and a negative pressure generation mechanism formed by a reversed Rayleigh step mechanism or the like will be described.
In FIG. 5A, the rotating-side seal ring 3, which is an opposite sliding part, and the stationary-side seal ring 5 slide relatively as shown by an arrow. On the sliding face of the stationary-side seal ring 5, a Rayleigh step 11a is formed which is perpendicular to the relative movement direction and faces upstream, constituting a narrowed gap (step). A groove 11 as a dynamic pressure (positive pressure) generation groove is formed upstream of the Rayleigh step 11a. The sliding face S of the opposite rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 is flat.
When the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 relatively move in the direction shown by the arrow, fluid intervening between the sliding faces S of the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 tends to follow and move in the movement direction of the rotating-side seal ring 3 or the stationary-side seal ring 5 due to its viscosity. Consequently, at that time, dynamic pressure (positive pressure) as shown by broken lines is generated by the presence of the Rayleigh step 11a.
Note that the reference character R denotes a land.
Also in FIG. 5B, the rotating-side seal ring 3, which is an opposite sliding part, and the stationary-side seal ring 5 slide relatively as shown by an arrow. On the sliding face of the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5, a reversed Rayleigh step 13a is formed which is perpendicular to the relative movement direction and faces downstream, constituting a widened gap (step). A groove 13 as a negative pressure generation groove is formed downstream of the reversed Rayleigh step 13a. The sliding face of the opposite rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 is flat.
When the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 relatively move in the direction shown by the arrow, fluid intervening between the sliding faces S of the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 tends to follow and move in the movement direction of the rotating-side seal ring 3 or the stationary-side seal ring 5 due to its viscosity. Consequently, at that time, negative pressure as shown by broken lines is generated by the presence of the reversed Rayleigh step 13a.
Here, when the rotating shaft 1 is driven, rotating the rotating-side seal ring 3, the sliding faces S of the rotating-side seal ring 3 and the stationary-side seal ring 5 slide relatively. Dynamic pressure (positive pressure) is generated by the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10, and the sliding faces S are slightly separated from each other. The first fluid is gradually introduced into the sliding faces S from the first-fluid side, and the second fluid from the second-fluid side, and the sliding faces S are held in a non-contact state by fluid lubrication action. On the other hand, the first fluid that has entered from the first-fluid side is drawn in by the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12), and discharged to the first-fluid side. At the same time, the second fluid that has entered from the second-fluid side is drawn in by the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14), and discharged to the second-fluid side.
This can prevent the mixing of the first fluid and the second fluid of different kinds on both sides while achieving both the lubrication of the sliding faces S and the sealing of the first fluid and the second fluid.
The configuration of the first embodiment described above has the following outstanding effects.
(1) In a sliding component in which a first fluid and a second fluid of different kinds are present on both sides of sliding faces of a pair of sliding parts, the sliding face of at least one of the sliding parts is provided with the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) including the first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13), and is provided with the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) including the second negative pressure generation grooves (grooves 15) located on the second-fluid side of the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12), and is further provided with the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) including the dynamic pressure generation grooves 11 (grooves 11) on the first-fluid side of the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) and the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14). The first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13) of the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) is connected to the first-fluid side and isolated from the second-fluid side by the land R. The second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are connected to the second-fluid side and isolated from the first-fluid side by the land R. The dynamic pressure generation grooves 11 (grooves 11) of the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) are connected to the first-fluid side and isolated from the second-fluid side by the land R. Consequently, the mixing of the first fluid and the second fluid of different kinds on both sides can be prevented while the lubrication of the sliding faces S and the sealing of the first fluid and the second fluid are achieved.
(2) Between the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) and the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14), the first circumferential groove 16 is provided which is deeper than the groove depth of the dynamic pressure generation grooves (grooves 11), the first negative pressure generation groove 13 (groove 13), and the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15). The first circumferential groove 16 is isolated from the first-fluid side and the second-fluid side by the lands R. Consequently, interference between the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) and the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) can be prevented to enhance their respective suction effects and discharge effects.
(3) Between the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) and the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12), the annular second circumferential groove 17 is provided. The second circumferential groove 17 is connected to the first-fluid side through the radial deep grooves 18, and is isolated from the second-fluid side by the land R. Consequently, interference between the dynamic pressure generation mechanism 10 (Rayleigh step mechanism 10) and the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 12 (reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 12) can be prevented to enhance their respective suction effects and discharge effects.
Second Embodiment
With reference to FIGS. 6A to 6F, a sliding component according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The second embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism is formed by a spiral mechanism, but the other basic configuration thereof is the same as that of the first embodiment. The same reference numeral is assigned to the same member without duplicated explanation.
In FIGS. 6A to 6F, grooves 21 of a spiral mechanism 20 constituting the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism is of a curved (spiral) shape reduced in size from upstream to downstream in the central direction. Consequently, by sliding on the mating sliding face, negative pressure is generated at the grooves 21, and fluid drawn into the grooves 21 is urged toward the first-fluid side.
In FIG. 6A, upstream ends of the grooves 21 are isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land, and downstream ends are connected to the second circumferential groove 17.
This ensures that fluid drawn into the grooves 21 is discharged to the first-fluid side.
Upstream ends of the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are connected to the first circumferential groove 16.
In FIG. 6B, the upstream ends of the grooves 21 are isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land, and the downstream ends are connected to the second circumferential groove 17.

In FIG. 6C, the upstream ends of the grooves 21 are isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land, and the downstream ends are isolated from the second circumferential groove 17 by a land. The upstream ends of the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land.
As a modification of FIG. 6C, the upstream ends of the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) may be connected to the first circumferential groove 16.

In FIG. 6F, the first circumferential groove 16 and the second circumferential groove 17 are eliminated, and the upstream ends and the downstream ends of the grooves 21 are surrounded by a land R. The upstream ends of the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are also surrounded by the land R.

The third embodiment is different from the second embodiment in that the dynamic pressure generation mechanism is formed by a spiral mechanism, but the other basic configuration thereof is the same as that of the second embodiment. The same reference numeral is assigned to the same member without duplicated explanation.
In FIGS. 7A to 7F, grooves 23 of a spiral mechanism 22 constituting the dynamic pressure generation mechanism are of a curved (spiral) shape enlarged from upstream to downstream toward the second-fluid side. Consequently, by sliding on the mating sliding face, dynamic pressure (positive pressure) is generated at the grooves 23, causing the first fluid to enter between the sliding faces and increase the fluid film, so that lubrication performance can be improved.
In FIG. 7A, upstream ends of the grooves 23 are connected to the first-fluid side, and downstream ends are isolated from the second circumferential groove 17 by a land. Some of the grooves 23 are formed as deep grooves with the same depth as that of the second circumferential groove 17.
The upstream ends of the grooves 21 are isolated from the first circumferential groove 16 by a land, and the downstream ends are connected to the second circumferential groove 17.
The upstream ends of the second negative pressure generation grooves 15 (grooves 15) of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism 14 (spiral mechanism 14) are connected to the first circumferential groove 16.

The same reference numeral is assigned to the same member without duplicated explanation.
In FIG. 8A, the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism is formed by a reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 24, and a dynamic pressure generation mechanism formed by a Rayleigh step mechanism 26 is provided on the second-fluid side of the reversed Rayleigh step mechanism 24.

The groove depth of the third circumferential groove 28 is equal to the groove depth of the first circumferential groove 16 and the second circumferential groove 17.
In the present example, the Rayleigh step mechanism 26 constituting the dynamic pressure generation mechanism is provided on the second-fluid side of the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism, that is, in a position closest to the second-fluid side, and thus, in conjunction with the function of the Rayleigh step mechanism 10 constituting the dynamic pressure generation mechanism provided on the first-fluid side, a liquid film can be formed over the entire sliding face, and lubrication of the sliding faces can be further ensured.
Even when the first circumferential groove 16, the second circumferential groove 17, and the third circumferential groove 28 are not provided as shown in FIG. 8B, the object of the present invention can be achieved.

Seventh Embodiment
With reference to FIG. 11 , a sliding component according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The seventh embodiment is different from the above embodiments in that a sliding face provided with the second fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism is set in a lower position axially away from the mating sliding face relative to a sliding face provided with the first fluid-side negative pressure generation mechanism and the dynamic pressure generation mechanism, but is the same as the above embodiments in the other basic configuration, and will not be described redundantly.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings, a specific configuration thereof is not limited to these embodiments. Any changes and additions made to them without departing from the scope of the present invention are included in the present invention.
For example, although the embodiments have described the case where the sliding part is used as one of a pair of a rotating seal ring and a stationary seal ring in a mechanical seal device, the sliding part can be used as a bearing sliding part that slides on a rotating shaft while sealing lubricating oil on axially one side of a cylindrical sliding face.
Further, for example, although the embodiments have described the inner peripheral side of the sliding parts as the first fluid (e.g. water) side, and the outer peripheral side as the second fluid (e.g. oil) side, the present invention is not limited to this, and is applicable to a case where the positional relationship is reversed.
Further, the first fluid and the second fluid are not limited to liquid, and may be gas or misty gas.
Further, for example, the connection relationships between the upstream ends and the downstream ends of the grooves of the first negative pressure generation mechanism and the second negative pressure generation mechanism and the deep grooves are not limited to the examples described in the embodiments, and can be variously changed.
