Definitions
- the invention relates to a shaft seal, in particular for shafts of a hydraulic steering valve, with a sealing ring area surrounding the shaft and at least one sealing edge profile arranged thereon on the shaft side for sealing contacting of the shaft in the area of an annular plane defining a radial plane that is essentially transverse to a longitudinal central axis of the shaft Sealing surface, wherein the at least one sealing edge profile has a contour that intersects the annular sealing surface several times.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing such a shaft seal.
- Generic shaft seals of the type described are known per se. Among other things, they are preferably used in hydraulic steering valves. Hydraulic steering valves, for example rotary slide valves, are known per se. An input shaft and an output shaft connected to the latter via a torsionally elastic element, usually a torsion bar, are arranged in a housing. The output shaft engages with the rack of a steering gear via a pinion. A valve sleeve surrounding the input shaft is usually connected to the output shaft. Hydraulic oil supplied through the housing-side connections is supplied to corresponding control channels via control bores.
- Shaft seals of the type described are used in such power steering valves. These usually include an outer sealing ring area, which is designed such that the shaft seal can be fixed relative to the shaft in the housing or another component.
- the sealing ring area usually consists of an elastic material with a reinforcing ring-shaped embedding, which can also be resilient.
- at least one sealing edge profile is arranged on the sealing ring area pointing towards the shaft. This practically forms and has a ring surrounding the shaft mostly only a very small extension in the axial direction, so it is web-shaped. Due to the system, there is usually no drag flow towards the sealing edge and therefore also not into the sealing surface.
- the sealing surface is an imaginary annular surface on the outer contour of a shaft, in which the sealing edge profile makes sealing contact with the shaft.
- the sealing edge usually lies in a plane perpendicular to the shaft axis. Lubrication is based on complicated flow processes, which arise from the interaction of microscopic roughness surveys with the viscoelastic sealing material.
- Characteristic of the steering valve application is the lack of lubrication between the shaft and the seal, which occurs due to slow rotational speeds and a lack of drag flow in the contact area of the shaft and seal, which can result in undesirably high friction and the resulting stick-slip phenomena and even noise.
- a shaft seal for high-speed shafts is known from DE 22 64 042 A1. This is made so that the sinusoidal sealing edge is formed in the manufacture of the sealing part made of elastic material. Since the sealing edge migrates axially like a sine wave and the sealing edge should have a constant diameter for the purpose of producing constant pressure conditions, the two-sided angles of the sealing edge element change constantly, as a result of which Sealing mechanism, which is essentially determined by both angles, is undesirably influenced.
- a shaft seal for high-speed shafts is also known from DE 38 30 706 A1. Here, the sealing edge profile is also formed with a constant diameter in the axial direction running sinusoidally, but the sealing edge angles on both sides are kept constant over the entire circumference.
- the sealing edge has a low height and capillary-active free spaces are formed on both sides of the sealing edge, which are used to maintain sufficient lubrication of the sealing element provided for high-speed shafts. While, on the one hand, constant sealing edge angles are required on both sides for generic shaft seals for a defined sealing characteristic, the capillary-active free spaces on both sides of the sealing edge are disadvantageous for pressure sealing of slow-running shafts, especially for the shafts of steering gears, since in contrast to the application for high-speed shafts, none Lifting or floating of the sealing surface area takes place, but even by the otherwise not usual, but given here, pressurization of the shaft seal an essential pressing of the sealing surface area of the seal on the shaft.
- the present invention is based on the object of improving a shaft seal of the generic type in such a way that improved lubrication of the sealing surface is made possible in order to reduce frictional torque, noise and / or stick-slip phenomena.
- a method for producing a shaft seal is proposed for the technical solution to this problem, in particular for shafts of a hydraulic steering valve, with a sealing ring area surrounding the shaft and at least one sealing edge profile arranged thereon on the shaft side for sealing contacting of the shaft in the area of a radial sealing surface that defines an essentially transverse plane with respect to a longitudinal central axis of the shaft, the sealing edge profile has a contour which intersects the annular sealing surface several times, the sealing edge profile having a constant inside diameter and having profile angles constant on both sides over the entire circumference on a cylindrical base formed on the inner circumference of the sealing ring region and having a width corresponding at least to the width of the axial extent of the sealing edge profile, wherein the cylindrical base in the area of the surfaces remaining next to the sealing edge profile, at least partially, is designed so spaced apart from the inside diameter of the sealing edge profile is that contacting these surfaces with the shaft is excluded when pressure is applied.
- the manufacturing method according to the invention makes it possible, on the one hand, to produce a sealing edge profile with constant profile angles on both sides that do not necessarily have to be symmetrical over the entire circumference, and also to avoid the occurrence of capillary-active areas or at least to mitigate their negative effects. Due to the pressures prevailing in the steering valves, areas with capillary action, when pressurized, cause the areas adjacent to the sealing edge profile to be pushed closer to the shaft, which increases friction and wear. By designing the distances in the context of the manufacturing method according to the invention, the pressure effects are reduced here, so that the seal produced according to the invention achieves a very good service life and also ensures good lubrication.
- a cylindrical base surface can first be easily formed.
- the sealing edge profile can then be worked out in the usual known manner.
- the cylindrical surfaces remaining next to the sealing edge profile must then be worked out so that the distance between the cylindrical regions at least partially becomes larger with respect to the center of the seal.
- the reference to the center of the seal also corresponds to the reference to the circumference of the sealing profile.
- the elaboration can be done, for example, by additional material application. These areas can also remain from the start when the cylindrical surface is formed.
- the manufacturing method according to the invention prevents the cylindrical regions lying next to the sealing edge profile from being pressed against the shaft by pressurization.
- the entire adjacent areas are completely deepened, so that capillary areas are completely avoided.
- the height of the sealing edge profile is not increased, which would weaken the sealing edge profile unnecessarily.
- the depressions can be spherical, for example.
- axially extending notches are worked out in the adjacent areas up to the edge area.
- the angle of the sealing edge profile remains constant on both sides over the entire circumference and that the adjacent areas remaining next to the sealing edge profile are worked out at least in part as viewed from the inside diameter of the sealing edge profile, that a contact of these surfaces with the shaft is excluded when pressure is applied.
- This technical solution has the effect that the viscous steering gear oil adhering to the shafts to be sealed is dragged by the respective shaft under the sealing surface areas which expand in the axial direction, which inevitably improves the lubrication and thus the friction and / or stick-slip caused by the seal -Appearances are reduced or reduced. Noise reduction also takes place automatically.
- This towing mechanism is particularly advantageous if, according to a proposal of the invention, the sealing edge profile has an undulating contour in the axial direction.
- essentially axially extending notches are worked out in the adjacent areas. It is proposed with particular advantage that the adjacent areas are hollowed out, preferably spherically, without the height of the sealing edge profile being increased thereby.
- Indentations in the radial direction in the sealing edge profile are also advantageous. Such indentations favor a drag flow into the sealing surface gap and thus lubrication. It is proposed with particular advantage that the shaft seal is designed to be wave-shaped in the radial direction.
- the invention proposes that a plurality of sealing edge profiles are arranged on the sealing ring area. These can be arranged in parallel or alternating with respect to the waveform, so that differently directed waves lie next to each other.
- the invention provides a simple and economical shaft seal that is particularly suitable for reducing noise and improving lubrication when used in steering gears.
- the shaft seal according to the invention can be used without increasing the axial installation space of a generic rotary slide valve.
- a dirt lip profile is arranged on the sealing area.
- the arrangement of the dirt lip profiles is preferably carried out on the atmosphere side next to the sealing edge profiles.
- Grease can be placed between the dirt lip profile and a sealing edge profile. This is particularly advantageous because, due to the sealing edge contour, the grease can be brought into the sealing surface area for lubrication.
- the invention thus provides a new type of rotary slide valve with good shaft seal lubrication.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of an embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows a shaft seal 1 in a schematic, partially sectioned arrangement.
- the shaft seal 1 consists of a sealing ring area 3, a reinforcing insert 5, a sealing lip 4 with a sealing edge profile 8 on the cylindrical area 11 and a clamping ring 7.
- the sealing edge profile 8 is wave-shaped in the axial direction.
- the shafts 9 thus cause lubricant to collect on the lubrication side in the shaft bays, which lubricant is dragged into the sealing gap due to the rotational movement of the shaft 2.
- the indentations formed in the adjacent regions are designated by reference number 10.
- the manufacture according to the invention produces, in addition to the sealing edge profile 8 shown with the height exaggerated for the purpose of illustration, flat adjacent regions, the capillary effectiveness of which is broken by the introduction of the depressions 10.
