When the oil seal device works, the oil-gas mixture inside the air compressor housing 1 moves to the right side and enters the first cavity a, and the fourth oil passage 53 and the fifth oil passage 16 normally return the lubricating oil in the first cavity a to the compression chamber. However, because the oil seal 4 and the male rotor 2 are rotationally sealed, and the oil seal 4 is subjected to the pressure of the oil-gas mixture, after the machine operates for a period of time, the oil seal 4 is deformed, the inner diameter of the oil seal 4 is increased, so that a part of lubricating oil in the first cavity a flows into the second cavity B, then enters the first oil duct 51 through the first oil inlet 511, flows out of the first oil outlet 512, enters the second oil duct 13 through the second oil inlet 131, flows out of the second oil outlet 132, enters the female rotor seat 12, then flows downwards to the lower part of the female rotor seat 12, then enters the third oil duct 14 through the third oil inlet 141, flows out of the third oil outlet 142, flows into the air inlet seat 15 through the oil return pipe, and finally returns to the inside of the air compressor housing 1, thereby solving the oil leakage problem.
The oil seal device has the advantage that even if the oil seal 4 is worn, lubricating oil can finally return to the inside of the air compressor housing 1 through the first oil passage 51, the second oil passage 13, the third oil passage 14 and the oil return pipe, so that oil leakage is prevented.
