Features: The "Mechanical Design Handbook" single-volume edition consists of 15 sub-series and 22 chapters, covering all aspects of conventional mechanical design. The sub-series include: "Common Design Data," "Mechanical Drafting, Limits and Fits," "Common Engineering Materials," "Connections and Fasteners," "Shafts and Connections," "Bearings," "Springs, Hoisting and Transport Parts, Hardware," "Lubrication and Sealing," "Mechanical Transmission," "Reduction (Variable) Speeders, Motors and Electrical Equipment," "Mechanical Vibration and Frame Design," "Mechanisms," "Hydraulic Transmission," "Hydraulic Control," and "Pneumatic Transmission." This book is "Lubrication and Sealing," consisting of 4 chapters. Chapter 1 introduces lubrication methods and lubrication devices, focusing on the design of common lubrication systems (such as oil mist lubrication, grease centralized lubrication systems, and lubrication systems). Chapter 2 covers lubricants, discussing the grades, properties, and applications of common lubricating oils, greases, and solid lubricants. Chapter 3 focuses on sealing, covering the structural types, characteristics, design calculations, and applications of various dynamic and static seals (such as gasket seals, packing seals, oil seals, expansion ring seals, labyrinth seals, mechanical seals, and spiral seals). Chapter 4 introduces sealing components, detailing the structural types and dimensions of common standard sealing parts for selection. This book serves as a reference tool for mechanical design personnel and relevant engineering technicians, and can also be used as a teaching material for students and faculty in relevant disciplines at colleges and universities.
