Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of metallurgical equipment maintenance, and more specifically, to a tool and method for replacing a main transmission shaft ring type dry oil pump. Background Art

[0002] The 2250mm hot rolling production line uses two inverter roughing mills, which have a pair of horizontal working rolls and a pair of support rolls above and below them, a total of four rolls, and the rolls can rotate in both positive and negative directions at the same time, so as to achieve multiple reciprocating rolling of the rolled piece, with high rigidity, and can improve the thickness accuracy and plate quality of the intermediate bad. During the reciprocating continuous rolling process of the roller spindle, one end of the roller connection is long-term erosion by cooling water, iron oxide scale and other debris, so high-viscosity glycerin must be injected into the slide of the spindle to prevent the spindle or working rolls from being worn. The ring dry oil pump is a commonly used lubrication system component for the main drive shaft of the roughing mill.

[0003] During routine maintenance of the rough rolling mill, it was found that there was no fresh glycerin at each refueling point of the main transmission shaft. After analyzing and finding the cause, it was found that the ring type dry oil pump was faulty. In order to ensure that the transmission shaft can operate normally during the tight production task, it is necessary to use the downtime to replace the ring type dry oil pump. Figure 1 The ring-type dry oil pump includes an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve formed by splicing two semicircular flanges. Generally, it is necessary to hoist the upper and lower halves of the outer sleeve and the inner sleeve respectively through two hand hoists, and perform four hoists. When hoisting the upper half of the outer sleeve or the inner sleeve, the lower half needs to be lifted with a mechanical jack to prevent the lower half from falling due to the removal of the upper half, which may cause danger. The traditional method of replacing the ring-type dry oil pump requires a lot of man-hours, and the hand hoist has the problem of tilting and tilting during the hoisting operation, and the flanges on both sides need to be aligned when reinstalling. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a safer and faster method for replacing the main transmission shaft ring-type dry oil pump. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following is a further description of the structure of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. The execution order of actions, steps, etc. in the devices and methods shown in the claims, specifications and drawings of the present invention can be implemented in any order as long as there is no special explicit limitation on the order and the output of the previous processing is not used in the subsequent processing.

[0033] It should also be noted that in the description of this application, the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and do not require that the present invention must be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0034] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with specific embodiments and examples.

[0035] Example

[0036] See attached Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present embodiment provides a tool for replacing a main transmission shaft ring type dry oil pump, comprising a support plate 21, a suspension arm 22, a gear 23, a first C-shaped claw 24 and a second C-shaped claw 25; the suspension arm 22 is arranged at one end of the support plate 21 and is perpendicular to the support plate 21; one side of the support plate 21 is rotatably connected to two handles 26; any handle is connected to the gear 23 through a rotating shaft 27 that passes through the support plate 21; the openings of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 are opposite to each other, and a row of groove teeth 31 are provided on the outer side of one side wing plate of them, and the groove teeth 31 are meshed with the gear 23; the rotation of the gear 23 can drive the first C-shaped claw 24 or the second C-shaped claw 25 to move up and down; the webs of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 are provided with a telescopic adjustment mechanism 32, and the inner buckle pieces of the two side wing plates are provided with bolt holes 33 that match the splicing bolts of the outer sleeve 11 or the inner sleeve 12.

[0037] The tooling realizes left-right movement of one side of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 through the telescopic adjustment mechanism 32 , and realizes up-and-down movement of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 by rotating the gear 23 through the handle 26 .

[0038] As a preferred technical solution, further: a spring pawl 34 is provided on the support plate 21 near the groove teeth 31, which clamps the groove teeth 31 from one direction to prevent the gear from retreating when no external force is applied. When the external force pushes the spring pawl away from the groove teeth, it does not affect the movement of the C-shaped claw.

[0039] As a preferred technical solution, further: the telescopic adjustment mechanism 32 is a sliding pull-out telescopic structure. It is understandable that the telescopic adjustment mechanism 32 can also adopt other commonly used spring buckle type, sliding latch type telescopic structure, etc., as long as it can meet the telescopic function in one direction.

[0040] As a preferred technical solution, further: a groove is provided on one side of the wing plate of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 facing the gear 23, and a groove tooth 31 is provided in the groove. The gear 23 drives the groove tooth 31 in the groove to prevent the C-shaped claw from shaking during the lifting process.

[0041] As a preferred technical solution, further: a hanging hole 35 is opened in the middle of the suspension arm 22.

[0042] See attached Figure 1 and 4 The annular dry oil pump 1 to be replaced includes an outer sleeve 11 and an inner sleeve 12 formed by bolting two semicircular flanges; the inner sleeve 12 is sleeved on the outer wall of the main transmission shaft 13. The annular dry oil pump 1 is fixedly connected to the shaft sleeve seat 14 of the main transmission shaft 13 through a connecting plate 15. The main transmission shaft 13 includes an upper transmission shaft and a lower transmission shaft.

[0043] Replacing the main transmission shaft ring type dry oil pump using the above-mentioned tooling includes the following steps:

[0044] S1. Disconnect all external connections of the annular dry oil pump jacket. Preferably, the glycerin pipeline is removed first, followed by the removal of the annular dry oil pump jacket and the bearing seat connecting plate, and then the connection between the glycerin pipeline and the annular dry oil pump is removed, and the glycerin pipeline is disconnected, thereby disconnecting all external connections of the annular dry oil pump. If necessary, two 5*5 angle irons are welded at both ends of the bearing seat 14 to extend outward as temporary platform legs, and two springboards are laid as working platforms, and both ends of the springboards are tied securely. After the pipe joints are removed, clean them and use a percussion wrench to remove the 6 M30 bolts. If a person is standing on the springboard and cannot carry it, use a crane to lift it off.

[0045] S2. Remove the jacket anchor bolts and install long bolts to separate the two semicircular flanges of the jacket by a certain gap. Usually, there are two jacket anchor bolts on one side. After removing one bolt each, install long screw bolts to separate the upper and lower flanges of the jacket.

[0046] S3. See Appendix Figure 5 , place the tooling on one side of the annular dry oil pump, first extend the telescopic adjustment structure 32 of the C-shaped claw, control the upper and lower positions of the C-shaped claw by the handle 26, align the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 with the gaps between the two semicircular flanges of the outer sleeve, and then retract the telescopic adjustment structure 32 to make the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 fit into the gap of the outer sleeve, align the bolt holes 33 with the anchor bolt holes of the outer sleeve, and then fix the upper semicircular flange of the outer sleeve with the first C-shaped claw 24, the lower semicircular flange and the second C-shaped claw 25 with bolts; remove the long bolts.

[0047] S4. The upper and lower positions of the C-shaped claws are controlled by the handle 26, so that the upper and lower separation distance of the first C-shaped claw 24 and the second C-shaped claw 25 is greater than the diameter of the main transmission shaft; the crane lifts out the entire tooling and the outer jacket through the suspension arm 22. If a spring ratchet is installed, it can play a role in preventing falling, preventing the outer jacket of the ring-type dry oil pump from falling off during the lifting process, causing a lifting accident.

[0048] S5, remove the inner sleeve of the ring-type dry oil pump by adopting steps similar to S2 to S4. Preferably, clean the contact surface between the ring-type dry oil pump and the main transmission shaft.

[0049] S6. When reinstalling the new ring-type dry oil pump, follow the above removal process in reverse, first install the inner sleeve, then install the outer sleeve, and finally make the external connection of the outer sleeve. When reinstalling the inner sleeve, use two feeler gauges to measure the tightness of the anchor bolts to avoid deflection of the inner sleeve caused by one-sided tightening.

[0050] From the above description, it can be seen that the present invention improves on the original hoisting method, changing the original four separate hoists to two integral hoists. In addition to saving the number of hoists, the original hoisting method is improved to avoid the original hoist being subjected to force on the separate hand chain hoist during hoisting, reducing the danger while saving more time and construction intensity. At the same time, the present invention avoids the risk of the lower half of the pump body falling, and uses the integral hoisting method to hoist the outer and inner sleeves as a whole, without the need to use a mechanical jack to lift them, making it safer and more convenient to replace the annular dry oil pump.

[0051] In summary, the present invention provides a tool and method for replacing a main transmission shaft ring-type dry oil pump. The tool comprises a support plate, a suspension arm, a gear, a first C-shaped claw and a second C-shaped claw; one side of the support plate is rotatably connected to two handles; any of the handles is connected to a gear through a rotating shaft that passes through the support plate; the openings of the first C-shaped claw and the second C-shaped claw are opposite, and a row of groove teeth are provided on the outer side of one side wing plate of them, and the groove teeth are meshed with the gear; the rotation of the gear can drive the first C-shaped claw or the second C-shaped claw to move up and down; the webs of the first C-shaped claw and the second C-shaped claw are provided with a telescopic adjustment mechanism, and the inner buckles of the two side wing plates are provided with bolt holes that match the splicing bolts of the outer sleeve or the inner sleeve. The present invention hoists the semicircular flange of the outer sleeve or the inner sleeve of the ring-type dry oil pump as a whole through the tool, thereby improving the installation efficiency and accuracy.
