摘要:
Eine Vorrichtung vorzugweise zur mikrobiologischen Fermentation und Kultivierung von Zellen befindet sich in einem geschlossenen Raum. Es ist ein sterilisierbarer Behälter (1) vorhanden, einer in diesem angeordneten Antriebswelle (2; 2'), mit einer Anzahl von an der Antriebswelle (2; 2') angebrachten Rührelementen (3), die zur Begasung des Raumes über Belüftungskanäle (30) belüftbar sind und mindestens einen gasdurchlässigen Teil aufweisen. Die Rührelemente (3) sind in mehreren Ebenen (E1; E2; E3; E4; E5; E6) übereinander angeordnet. Für mehrere je in einer Ebene (E1; E2; E3; E4; E5; E6) angeordnete Rührelemente (3) ist jeweils eine individuelle Gaszufuhr vorgesehen. Hieraus ergibt sich eine optimale Begasung der in dem Behälter zu behandelnden Produktbildner.

Mechanical face seal has a first sealing (12) mounted in fixed axial and rotational relationship and sealed with respect to a housing (11) and a second sealing ring (20) mounted in fixed rotational relationship but movable axially with respect to a shaft (10). The second sealing ring (20) being sealed with respect to the shaft (10) by means of a bellows unit (22). One end (23) of the bellows unit (22) being engaged by a first drive band (30) which applies a radial load to the end (23) of the bellows unit (22) forcing it into driving and sealing engagement with the shaft (10) and the other end (25) of the bellows unit (22) being engaged by a second drive band (31) which applies a radial load to the end (25) of the bellows unit (22) forcing it into driving and sealing engagement with the second sealing ring (20). The inner ends (33) of the drive bands (30,31) are of equal diameter and have axially extending castellations (34), the castellations (34) of one drive band (30) intermeshing with the castellations (34) of the other drive band (31), whereby the drive bands (30,31) may be telescoped and torsional loads may be reacted between the shaft (10) and the second sealing ring (20) by the ends (23,25) of the bellows unit (22) and the drive bands (30,31). A spring (35) acts between the drive bands (30,31) to bias them apart and to urge opposed sealing faces (36,37) of the first and second sealing rings (12,20) into sealing engagement.

A mechanical face seal has a first seal face member (10) mounted in fixed rotational and axial relationship and sealed with respect to a housing (13), and a second seal face member (21) mounted with respect to a shaft (20) by means of an elastomeric bellows unit (25), the bellows unit (25) being axially compressed so that it urges the second seal face member (21) into sealing engagement with the first seal face member (10); the elastomeric bellows unit (25) being formed from an elastomeric composition with reinforcing fibres embedded therein, the reinforcing fibres being orientated axially of the bellows unit (25).
摘要:
A mechanical face seal for providing a seal between a shaft (11) and a housing (16) includes a first seal face member (10) mounted on the shaft (11) in fixed rotational and axial relationship and sealed with respect thereto and a second seal face member (15) mounted in fixed rotational relationship but moveable axially of the housing (16); said second seal face member (15) being sealed with respect to the housing (16) by means of a sealing element (28), the sealing element (28) being located in a groove (25) defined between opposed surfaces (27, 26) of the second seal face member (15) and housing (16), the wall of the groove (25) between the sealing element (28) and the side of the seal exposed to a product being defined by a friction insert (35) slidably mounted on the second seal face member (15) and providing a close clearance (30) with the housing (16).
摘要:
A seal for providing a fluid tight seal between a pair of relatively rotatable components (10, 11) has a first seal face member (25) mounted in fixed axial and rotational relationship and sealed with respect to one component (10) and a second seal face member (45) sealed with respect to said other component (11), said second seal face member (45) being sealed with respect to its associated component (11) by a radially extending diaphragm (30), said diaphragm (30) being disposed on the high pressure side of the seal face members (25, 45), so that when subjected to fluid under pressure the force acting on the diaphragm (30) will urge the second seal face member (45) into engagement with the first seal face member (25).
摘要:
A mechanical face seal includes a seal face member (15) which is secured in fixed rotational relationship and sealed with respect to one component (10) by means of a resilient bellows unit (16), said bellows unit (16) being attached at one end to the associated component (10) and at the other end to the seal face member (15), the seal face member (15) being biased into sealing engagement with a second seal face member (12) by compression of the bellows unit (16), the bellows unit (16) defining a plurality of convolutions (25-28), a convolution (25) in a portion of the bellows unit (16) subject to higher stressing having a pitch which is greater than and/or a depth which is less than that of a convolution (28) in a portion of the bellows unit (16) subject to lower stressing, thereby evening out the stress distribution in the bellows unit (16) when in operation.
摘要:
A mechanical face seal for producing a seal between a shaft (10) and housing (11) includes a first seal face member (12) adapted to be secured in fluid tight manner and in fixed axial relationship to the shaft (10) by means of a retaining sleeve (13) and a second seal face member (15) adapted to be secured in fluid tight manner, in fixed rotational relationship but movable axially of the housing (11) by means of a bellows unit (16). The bellows unit (16) is secured to a tubular retaining ring (20), the end of the bellows unit (16) remote from the second seal face member (15) engaging a cylindrical face of a plane cylindrical portion (21) of the retaining ring (20) and being secured thereto in fluid tight manner, the retaining ring (20) having a flange formation (22) by which the retaining ring (20) may be located with respect to the housing (11).
摘要:
A rotary mechanical face seal includes first and second seal face members (10, 14), the sealing face (13) of one seal face member (14) being urged into engagement with the sealing face (16) of the other seal face member (10), said seal face members (10, 14) being such that when subjected to temperature gradients due to the generation of heat at the sealing faces (13, 16) the sealing faces (13, 16) will remain substantially parallel in spite of any thermal distortion of the seal face members (10, 14).
