What is a skeleton oil seal
The skeleton oil seal is relatively simple, and generally consists of three parts: the oil seal body, the reinforcing skeleton and the self-tightening coil spring. The sealing body is divided into bottom, waist, cutting edge and sealing lip according to different parts.
The skeleton is like the steel bar in the concrete component, which plays a role in strengthening and enabling the oil seal to maintain its shape and tension. Generally, the inner diameter of the skeleton oil seal in the free state is smaller than the shaft diameter, that is, it has a certain "interference". Therefore, when the oil is encapsulated into the oil seal seat and the shaft, the pressure of the oil seal edge and the contraction force of the self-tightening coil spring produce a certain radial tension on the shaft, and after a period of operation, the pressure will quickly decrease or even disappear, therefore, the plus spring can compensate the oil seal self-tightening force at any time.
