A bearing 6 is retained in the mounting cavity 15 through a sealing member 3. The sealing member 3 is made of a flexible material, such as rubber, silicone, etc., so that the bearing 6 is movable relative to the outer casing 1.

(6) As shown in FIG. 2, an upper limiting ring 11 and a lower limiting ring 14 are fixedly connected to two ends of the outer casing 1, respectively. The inner diameters of the upper limiting ring 11 and the lower limiting ring 14 are smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting cavity 15. The sealing member 3 is installed between the upper limiting ring 11 and the lower limiting ring 14. The sealing member 3 has an accommodating cavity 221 therein. The bearing 6 is installed in the accommodating cavity 221.

(7) As shown in FIG. 2, the sealing member 3 includes an upper sealing ring 31 and a lower sealing ring 33. An inner casing 2 is connected between the upper sealing ring 31 and the lower sealing ring 33. The inner casing 2 is made of a hard material. The accommodating cavity 221 is arranged in the inner casing 2. The bearing 6 is retained in the accommodating cavity 221 of the inner casing 2. The connection of the inner casing 2 and the sealing member 3 is described below. The upper sealing ring 31 includes an upper outer ring 312 and an upper inner ring 311. An upper end of the inner casing 2 is inserted between the upper outer ring 312 and the upper inner ring 311. The upper outer ring 312 and the upper inner ring 311 clamp the upper end of the inner casing 2 tightly. A lower end of the inner casing 2 abuts against a side of the lower sealing ring 33 facing the upper sealing ring 31. The upper sealing ring 31, the lower sealing ring 33 and the inner casing 2 are confined in the outer casing 1.

(8) In order to increase the sealability between the upper outer ring 312, the upper inner ring 311 and the upper end of the inner casing 2, as shown in FIG. 2, the inner casing 2 includes an upper inner casing 21 and a lower inner casing 22. The outer diameter of the upper inner casing 21 is less than the outer diameter of the lower inner casing 22. A connecting ring 23 is connected between the upper inner casing 21 and the lower inner casing 22. A positioning ring 24 is fixedly connected to an upper end of the upper inner casing 21. The upper inner ring 311 is installed between the bearing 6 and the positioning ring 24. The upper outer ring 312 is installed between the upper limiting ring 11 and the connecting ring 23. An upper protruding ring 34 is fixedly connected to an upper end of the upper outer ring 312. The upper protruding ring 34 is arranged between the upper limiting ring 11 and the upper inner ring 311. A lower protruding ring 35 is fixedly connected to a lower end of the upper outer ring 312. The lower protruding ring 35 is arranged between the upper outer casing 12 and the lower inner casing 22. Two bearings 6 are installed in the accommodating cavity 221 of the lower inner casing 22. A separation ring 32 is provided between the upper bearing 6 and the connecting ring 23. The separation ring 32 may be made a flexible material.

(9) In order to facilitate the installation of the bearing 6 and the sealing member 3, the outer casing 1 includes an upper outer casing 12 and a lower outer casing 13. The upper limiting ring 11 is fixedly connected to an upper end of the upper outer casing 12. The lower limiting ring 14 is fixedly connected to a lower end of the lower outer casing 13. The outer wall of the upper outer casing 12 is threadedly connected with the inner wall of the lower outer casing 13.

(10) An outer flange 25 is fixedly connected to a lower end of the lower inner casing 22. The lower sealing ring 33 is pressed between the outer flange 25 and the lower limiting ring 14. A lower extension ring 331 is fixedly connected to an upper end of the lower sealing ring 33. A sealing flange 332 is fixedly connected to an upper end of the lower extension ring 331. The sealing flange 332 is pressed between a lower step 131 of the inner wall of the lower outer casing 13 and the lower end face of the upper outer casing 12, thereby increasing the sealability of the threaded connection between the upper outer casing 12 and the lower outer casing 13.

(11) As shown in FIG. 2, a space 26 is formed among the upper sealing ring 31, the lower sealing ring 33, the inner casing 2 and the outer casing 1. A one-way structure 9 is provided on any one of the upper sealing ring 31, the lower sealing ring 33, the inner casing 2 and the outer casing 1. The space 26 is evacuated to be in a vacuum state through the one-way structure 9, so as to achieve sound insulation and noise reduction. The one-way structure 9 may be a one-way valve or the like. After the space 26 is evacuated, the one-way structure 9 seals the space 26 to prevent air from entering the space 26.

(12) When the lower outer casing 13 is screwed upward, the lower limiting ring 14 drives the lower sealing ring 33 to move upward. The lower sealing ring 33, the sealing flange 332, the separation ring 32, the upper outer ring 312 and the upper inner ring 311 that are all made of flexible materials are squeezed and deformed, thereby increasing the sealability among the outer casing 1, the bearing 6, and a cutter shaft 4, reducing dust and liquid entering the bearing 6 and prolonging the service life of the bearing 6. A positioning protrusive ring 121 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper outer casing 12. When the upper end face of the lower outer casing 13 abuts against the lower end face of the positioning protrusive ring 121, the lower outer casing 13 is screwed into place.

(13) As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a high-speed pulverizer comprises a cup body 5, a transmission 8, a cutter shaft 4, a blade 41 and a support device 7. The support device 7 is fixed in the cup body 5. A lower end of the cutter shaft 4 is connected to the transmission 8. An upper end of the cutter shaft 4 sequentially passes through the lower limiting ring 14, the lower sealing ring 33, the bearing 6 and the upper inner ring 311. The blade 41 is fixed on the upper end of the cutter shaft 4. The inner wall of the upper inner ring 311 is in interference fit with the cutter shaft 4. The inner wall of the lower sealing ring 33 is in interference or clearance fit with the cutter shaft 4. When a lateral force is given to the bearing 6 during the rotation of the cutter shaft 4, the bearing 6 will squeeze the upper sealing ring 31 and the lower sealing ring 33, and the upper sealing ring 31 and the lower sealing ring 33 will deform accordingly. This can prolong the service life of the bearing 6 and reduce the noise between the cutter shaft 4 and the bearing 6 when the cutter shaft 4 rotates.

(14) Although particular embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the present invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims.
