摘要: 介绍了斯特林制冷机里使用的一种新型空心金属C型密封圈的制作工艺与选材、密封特点和使用优势。针对传统的橡胶密封圈、PTFE、金属实心银丝密封圈等泄漏率高、易失效等特点,金属C型密封圈制造精度高,经过多年的测试使用和论证,该密封产品在抗强冲击和耐强辐射的环境下,依然可以实现较高的可靠性和较低的泄漏率,漏率最低则可以达到10-9 atm.cm3/s.m,可以满足斯特林制冷机泄漏率的要求。Abstract: This article introduces the manufacturing process, material selection, sealing characteristics, and sealing advantages of a new hollow metal C ring used in Stirling cryocoolers. Given the high leakage rate and ease of failure of rings made of traditional rubber, PTFE, and solid silver wire, the manufacturing accuracy of the metal C-type sealing ring is high. After years of testing, use, and demonstrations, the metal C ring has achieved high reliability and a low leakage rate under conditions of strong impact and radiation resistance. The leakage rate of the metal C-ring can reach to 10-9 atm.cm3/s.m, which meets the leakage rate requirements of Stirling cryocoolers.
