The sealing principle of the skeleton oil seal

Sealing principle: Since there is an oil film controlled by the oil seal edge between the oil seal and the shaft, the oil film has fluid lubrication characteristics. Under the action of the liquid surface tension skeleton oil seal, the rigidity of the oil film just makes the contact end of the oil film and the air form a crescent surface, preventing the leakage of the working medium, thereby realizing the sealing of the rotating shaft. The sealing ability of the oil seal depends on the thickness of the oil film on the sealing surface. If the thickness is too large, the oil seal will leak; if the thickness is too small, dry friction may occur, causing oil seal and shaft wear; if there is no oil film between the sealing lip and the shaft, it is easy to cause heat and wear. .

Therefore, when installing, it is necessary to apply some oil on the sealing ring, and at the same time ensure that the skeleton oil seal is perpendicular to the axis line. If it is not perpendicular, the sealing lip of the oil seal will drain the lubricating oil from the shaft, which will also lead to excessive sealing of the lip. wear. During operation, the lubricant in the casing seeps out a little, so that it is ideal to form an oil film on the sealing surface.
