SEALING ASSEMBLY FOR CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR AND CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR HAVING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a seal assembly for use in a centrifugal compressor and a centrifugal compressor having same. The centrifugal compressor comprises an impeller and a housing, wherein the impeller comprises a gimbal, provided on the back of the impeller, having an inner diameter and an outer diameter; and the seal assembly for use in a centrifugal compressor comprises a sealing section, the sealing section comprising a sealing tooth formed on the impeller and a sealing ring provided on the housing, wherein an elastic part is provided on a contact surface of the sealing ring with the sealing tooth. According to the seal assembly of the present invention, the sealing clearance between the sealing ring and the sealing tooth is effectively reduced by way of multiple sets of sealing sections and the elastic parts provided therebetween.
