BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] FIG. 1 is a structural drawing according to an embodiment of the disclosure;

[0017] FIG. 2 illustrates an internal structure of a gas outlet portion according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] The technical solutions according to embodiments of the disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings illustrating the embodiments of the disclosure. It is apparent that, some, but not all embodiments of the invention are described herein. All embodiments achieved by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in the disclosure without creative work fall within the scope of the invention.

[0019] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, FIG. 1 is a structural drawing according to an embodiment of the disclosure, and FIG. 2 illustrates an internal structure of a gas outlet portion according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

[0020] A mechanism for sealing a cylinder and a cylinder head comprises a gas outlet portion 10 of the cylinder, the cylinder head 20 and a seal structure. The gas outlet portion 10 is provided with an outlet 101. Further, a position-retaining protruding edge 102 surrounding the outside of the outlet 101 is fixedly arranged on the gas outlet portion 10. In the embodiment, the position-retaining protruding edge 102 is coaxial with the outlet 101.

[0021] The seal structure comprises a first sealing ring 30 arranged inward of the position-retaining protruding edge 102 and comprises a heat insulating sheet 40, wherein the first sealing ring 30 abuts on an inner wall of the position-retaining protruding edge 102, and the heat insulating sheet 40 covers the first sealing ring 30.

[0022] The cylinder head 20 covers the gas outlet portion 10. Inside the cylinder head 20, a mounting cavity is formed, in which a movable member 201 and an elastic member 202 are arranged. Herein, the movable member 201 is tightly pressed against the heat insulating sheet 40 by means of the elastic member 202. In the embodiment, the elastic member 202 may be a spring. The spring has one end fastened to the cylinder head 20 and another end fastened to the movable member 201. The spring is in a compressed state. By merely the force of the spring, the movable member 201 is tightly pressed above the first sealing ring 30, to close and seal the cylinder.

[0023] When the cylinder works normally, the pressure in the cylinder is gradually increased. When the pressure of the gas is higher than the spring force, the heat insulating sheet 40 and the movable member 201 are pushed upwards by the gas inside the cylinder as the pressure overcomes the spring force. In such case, the gas can exit through outlet the outlet 101.

[0024] Due to the spring force and the pressure, the movable member 201 is frequently moved inside the cylinder head 20. In such case, the heat generated by the friction of the movable member 201 is transmitted to the first sealing ring 30 through the heat insulating sheet 40. Since the heat is insulated by the heat insulating sheet 40, most of the heat is isolated and the heat transmitted to the first sealing ring 30 is greatly reduced. In this way, the first sealing ring 30 is prevented from melting at high temperature and thus is protected. Consequently, the gas outlet portion 10 of the cylinder has greatly improved stable sealing performance.

[0025] Preferably, in the embodiment, the movable member 201 and the heat insulating sheet 40 are arranged in such a manner that flat surfaces of the movable member 201 and the heat insulating sheet 40 are abutted with each other.

[0026] In particular, the cylinder usually is frequently displaced during operation. With the arrangement of flat abutting surfaces, stable force is applied when the heat insulating sheet 40 is pushed by the movable member 201.

[0027] Preferably, a mounting groove 203 for receiving the position-retaining protruding edge 102 is integrally formed in the cylinder head 20, and a side wall of the mounting groove 203 is located above the heat insulating sheet 40. With such arrangement, the side wall of the mounting groove 203 has a function to restrict the displacement of the heat insulating sheet 40, whereby the heat insulating sheet 40 is prevented from escaping from the position-retaining protruding edge 102. Due to the corporation of elements, the movements of the heat insulating sheet 40 opening or closing the first sealing ring 30 have high stability.

[0028] In addition, a second sealing ring 50 is sleeved on the position-retaining protruding edge 102, at the outer periphery. The second sealing ring 50 seals the gap formed between the mounting groove 203 and the side surface of the position-retaining protruding edge 102, thereby sealing and isolating inner portion of the cylinder head 20 from the environment.

[0029] It should be noted that, both the first sealing ring 30 and the second sealing ring 50 are heat resisting sealing rings.

[0030] In order to facilitate the mounting of the first sealing ring 30, the gas outlet portion 10 is provided with a positioning groove 60 for positioning and mounting the first sealing ring 30.

[0031] All the above are merely preferred embodiments of the invention. It should be noted that, those skilled in the art may obtain various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the scope of the invention without departing from the principle of the invention.
