Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of generator set maintenance equipment, and in particular to a generator set stator and rotor narrow gap inspection operation robot and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Large hydroelectric generators are key operating mechanisms in the process of hydropower generation. The stator is the main component of the generator. The iron core and winding are key components for the generator to generate a magnetic field and operate normally. The iron core includes slot wedges, corrugated plates, gaskets, and wire rods. The looseness detection of stator slot wedges is the core to ensure the long-term and stable operation of the generator. For large hydroelectric generators, generator factories often use slot wedges and gaskets or slot wedges, gaskets and corrugated plates combined structures to reinforce the stator wire rods. However, with the long-term operation of the generator, the electromagnetic force of the wire rod continues to act, causing the deformation of the gasket or corrugated plate to gradually decrease, and then the slot wedge becomes loose or falls off, causing major safety hazards. Therefore, it is necessary to detect and maintain the looseness of the slot wedges of the generator during the maintenance plan to ensure the normal and safe operation of the generator. Traditional detection technology is carried out when the generator rotor is hoisted out, which has problems such as long detection time cycle, high labor costs, and easy damage to equipment. However, for large hydro-turbine generators, the stator slot wedge tightness detection project cannot be carried out at present due to factors such as the narrow gap between the stator and rotor without lifting out the rotor. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an internal inspection and processing device for the stator and rotor of a generator set, which can realize non-destructive detection of the tightness of the generator stator slot wedge based on the sound information generated by knocking vibration.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN118641625A, published (announced) date: 2024.09.13, discloses a generator set stator and rotor internal inspection and processing operation device, including a circumferential guide mechanism, a mobile vehicle, a radial telescopic mechanism, a vertical lifting mechanism and a replaceable working tool, wherein the circumferential guide mechanism is arranged on the generator set rotor, the mobile vehicle is arranged on the circumferential guide mechanism and can walk on the circumferential guide mechanism, the vertical lifting mechanism is connected to the mobile vehicle through the radial telescopic mechanism, the replaceable working tool is arranged on the vertical lifting mechanism, the vertical lifting mechanism carries the replaceable working tool and can enter the stator-rotor gap, the vertical lifting mechanism drives the replaceable working tool to be lifted, and the replaceable working tool detects the tightness of the generator stator slot wedge based on the knocking operation sound of the generator stator slot wedge. Its feature is that the inspection and processing operation is performed by entering the narrow gap through the vertical lifting mechanism; its disadvantage is that before the inspection, a circumferential guide mechanism needs to be installed on the generator set, and when in use, the radial telescopic mechanism and the vertical lifting mechanism need to be controlled at the same time, and the installation and control are relatively complicated.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] Embodiment 1: See also Figure 1-14 The present invention provides a generator set stator and rotor narrow gap inspection robot, comprising a frame 1 and a power transmission device 2, a walking device 3, a knocking device 4 and a sound collection device 5 arranged on the frame 1; wherein the power transmission device 2 provides power support for the robot, the walking device 3 is used to drive the robot to perform inchworm-like movement in the narrow gap 6 of the generator set stator and rotor, the knocking device 4 is used to knock on the stator slot wedge, and the sound collection device 5 is used to collect the sound information generated by the knocking vibration of the knocking device 4 to detect the tightness of the stator slot wedge. The generator set stator and rotor narrow gap inspection robot provided by the present invention is used for internal inspection and processing of the generator set stator and rotor, and can realize non-destructive detection of the tightness of the generator stator slot wedge based on the sound information generated by the knocking vibration. The robot can be used for knocking detection operations in narrow gaps, and can enter the space to be operated through a narrow gap. The operating mechanism has the advantages of small size and simple structure.
[0036] See also Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present invention, the frame 1 includes an upper frame 101, a lower frame 102 and a traveling mounting frame 103. The internal space of the upper frame 101 and the lower frame 102 is equipped with a power transmission device 2. The left and right sides of the lower frame 102 are respectively provided with traveling mounting frames 103. The traveling devices 3 on both sides are respectively swingably mounted on the traveling mounting frames 103 on both sides, and the traveling devices 3 are connected to the power transmission device 2 through the traveling mounting frames 103 for transmission. The knocking operation device 4 and the sound collection device 5 are installed at the front end or the rear end of the lower frame 102. The upper frame 101 and the lower frame 102 form a cavity inside for installing the power transmission device 2 and realizing the transmission connection between the power transmission device 2 and the traveling device 3.
[0037] See also Figure 3 , 4The power transmission device 2 includes a front-to-back swing drive mechanism and an up-and-down swing drive mechanism. The front-to-back swing drive mechanism includes a motor 201, a motor output shaft 202, a driving gear 203, a driven gear 204 and a driven shaft 213. The motor output shaft 202 of the motor 201 is provided with a driving gear 203. The driven shaft 213 is parallel to the motor output shaft 202. The driven gear 204 is provided on the driven shaft 213. The driving gear 203 and the driven gear 204 are meshed and driven. The motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 are respectively connected to the walking devices 3 on both sides to drive the walking devices 3 to swing back and forth. The up-and-down swing drive mechanism is synchronized with the front-to-back swing drive mechanism to drive the walking devices 3 to swing up and down. When the motor 201 rotates, the motor output shaft 202 rotates. Since the driving gear 203 and the driven gear 204 are meshed, the driven shaft 213 is driven to rotate synchronously and in opposite directions.
[0038] Further, see Figure 3 The walking device 3 includes a turbine 301, a worm 302, an electromagnet I 303, an electromagnet II 304, a central electromagnet 305, a swing link 306 and an electromagnet mounting frame 309. Two swing links 306 are rotatably mounted on the walking mounting frame 103. A worm 302 is mounted inside the walking mounting frame 103. Both ends of the worm 302 are rotatably connected to the lower frame 102. A vortex is fixedly mounted on one of the swing links 306 on each side of the walking mounting frame 103 and at one end located inside the walking mounting frame 103. The wheel 301, the turbine 301 is meshed with the worm 302 on the corresponding side for transmission, and the other end of the two swing links 306 on each side is hingedly mounted with an electromagnet mounting frame 309, and the lower ends of the electromagnet mounting frame 309 are respectively mounted with electromagnet I 303 and electromagnet II 304; at least one central electromagnet 305 is installed at the bottom of the lower frame 102; the up and down swing driving mechanism is connected and transmitted with the walking mounting frame 103; the motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 are respectively connected and transmitted with the worm 302 on both sides to drive the worm 302 to rotate. The worm 302 on both sides are driven to rotate by the motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 respectively. Since the turbine 301 is meshed with the worm 302 and the turbine 301 is fixedly connected to the swing link 306, when the worm 302 rotates forward and reverse, the turbine 301 slides on the worm 302, thereby driving the swing link 306 to swing, thereby driving the electromagnet mounting frame 309 to swing back and forth. In the process of the electromagnet mounting frame 309 swinging back and forth, the up and down swinging drive mechanism is connected to the walking mounting frame 103 for transmission, driving the walking mounting frame 103 to swing up and down, thereby causing the electromagnet mounting frame 309 to swing up and down.
[0039] See also Figure 8 , 9 , respectively, are the top view and the front view of the first state of the robot walking device. Figure 8 In the embodiment, the swing link 306 swings backward to the limit, at which time the electromagnet I 303, the electromagnet II 304 and the central electromagnet 305 are in the same plane, as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 shown.
[0040] See also Fig.10 , 11 , respectively, are the top view and front view of the second state of the robot walking device. Fig.10 In the embodiment, the swing link 306 swings forward to the limit, at which time the electromagnet I 303, the electromagnet II 304 and the central electromagnet 305 are also in the same plane, as shown in FIG. Fig.11 shown.
[0041] See also Fig.12 , 13 , respectively, are the top view and front view of the third state of the robot walking device. Fig.12 In the embodiment, the swing link 306 swings to the middle position, at which time the electromagnet I 303 and the electromagnet II 304 are located on the upper side of the central electromagnet 305, as shown in FIG. Fig.12 shown.
[0042] In this embodiment, see Figure 3 , 4 The up and down swing driving mechanism includes an active bevel gear 209, a driven bevel gear 210, a spiral inner shaft 211, a spiral positioning pin 307 and a connecting rod 308. The active bevel gear 209 is installed on the driven shaft 213, and the driven bevel gear 210 is installed below the spiral inner shaft 211. The driven bevel gear 210 is meshed with the active bevel gear 209 for transmission. Two spiral positioning pins 307 are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the spiral inner shaft 211 for upward and downward guiding sliding. A slide groove 212 is provided on the spiral inner shaft 211. One end of the spiral positioning pin 307 extends into the slide groove 212, and the other end is hinged to one end of the connecting rod 308. The other end of the connecting rod 308 is hinged to the walking mounting frame 103. When the driven shaft 213 rotates, the driving bevel gear 209 is driven to rotate, and the driving bevel gear 209 in turn drives the driven bevel gear 210 to rotate, and the driven bevel gear 210 in turn drives the spiral inner circular shaft 211 to rotate. The outer wall of the spiral inner circular shaft 211 is provided with a slide groove 212, and the spiral positioning pin 307 slides up and down by cooperating with the slide seat. Figure 3 The middle slide is not shown, and one end of the spiral positioning pin 307 extends into the slide groove 212. When the spiral positioning pin 307 rotates, the spiral positioning pin 307 can be driven to move up and down. Since the spiral positioning pin 307 is hinged to the walking mounting frame 103 through the connecting rod 308, the walking mounting frame 103 is pushed and pulled up and down, so that the walking mounting frame 103 revolves around the worm 302, thereby driving the electromagnet mounting frame 309 to swing up and down.
[0043] In one of the schemes, see Figure 3 The motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 are respectively installed with synchronous pulleys Ⅰ205 and synchronous pulleys Ⅱ206, and the worm gears 302 on both sides are also installed with corresponding synchronous pulleys. The synchronous pulleys on the worm gears 302 on both sides are respectively connected to the synchronous pulleys Ⅰ205 and synchronous pulleys Ⅱ206 through synchronous belts Ⅰ207 and synchronous belts Ⅱ208.
[0044] In addition to driving the worm 302 on both sides to rotate in the above manner, the motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 can also be driven by gear meshing, that is, the motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 are respectively connected to the worm 302 by gear transmission.
[0045] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 , 7 The slide groove 212 is a symmetrical ring structure with one end high and the other end low.
[0046] In this embodiment, see Figure 6 The knocking operation device 4 includes a steering gear 401, a knocking hammer mounting frame 402, a return spring 403, a knocking hammer handle 404, a knocking hammer head 405, and a knocking hammer output shaft 406. One end of the knocking hammer handle 404 is movably mounted on the knocking hammer mounting frame 402 through a pivot, and a return spring 403 is also mounted on the pivot. One end of the return spring 403 acts on the knocking hammer mounting frame 402, and the other end acts on the knocking hammer handle 404. A cam 407 is also mounted on the knocking hammer mounting frame 402 through the knocking hammer output shaft 406, and the protruding end of the cam 407 can abut against the knocking hammer handle 404. A steering gear 401 is mounted on one side of the knocking hammer mounting frame 402, and the output shaft of the steering gear 401 is connected and transmitted with the knocking hammer output shaft 406; the knocking hammer head 405 is mounted on the other end of the knocking hammer handle 404. The servo 401 drives the hammer output shaft 406 to rotate, thereby driving the cam 407 to rotate. When the cam 407 rotates, the protruding end of the cam 407 can abut against the hammer handle 404. When the protruding end of the cam 407 continues to rotate, the protruding end of the cam 407 presses the hammer handle 404 downward and tilts it. Then the protruding end of the cam 407 is misaligned with the hammer handle 404. At this time, the hammer handle 404 is quickly reset under the action of the reset spring 403, so that the hammer head 405 knocks the stator slot wedge. As long as the cam 407 rotates one circle, the hammer head 405 can knock once. In this embodiment, the reset spring 403 is a torsion spring.
[0047] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , 2 The number of the knocking operation devices 4 is two, and the sound collection device 5 is arranged between the two knocking operation devices 4.
[0048] In this embodiment, the sound collecting device 5 adopts an Audio-Technica AT899 ultra-small omnidirectional microphone.
[0049] Embodiment 2: A method for using a generator set stator and rotor narrow gap inspection robot is used to walk in the narrow gap 6 between the stator and rotor of the generator set and detect the tightness of the stator slot wedge. The method includes the following steps: During the crawling stage, the motor 201 rotates back and forth at a fixed point, and the motor output shaft 202 and the driven shaft 213 rotate synchronously, thereby driving the worm 302 of the walking device 3 on both sides to rotate, thereby driving the swing link 306 to swing forward or backward, thereby synchronously driving the electromagnet mounting brackets 309 on both sides to swing forward or backward.
[0050] When the electromagnet mounting frame 309 swings forward or backward, the driven shaft 213 synchronously drives the spiral inner shaft 211 to rotate, thereby driving the spiral positioning pin 307 to reciprocate up and down. When the spiral positioning pin 307 reciprocates up and down, the traveling mounting frame 103 is driven to swing up and down through the connecting rod 308.
[0051] When the electromagnet mounting frame 309 swings forward or backward, the electromagnet I 303 and the electromagnet II 304 are powered off, and the central electromagnet 305 is powered on. The central electromagnet 305 is adsorbed on the working surface to prevent the robot from falling. When the electromagnet mounting frame 309 falls to the lowest point, the electromagnet I 303 and the electromagnet II 304 are powered on. The electromagnet I 303 and the electromagnet II 304 are adsorbed on the working surface, and the electromagnet 305 is powered off, thereby performing an inchworm-like upward or downward movement.
[0052] In the detection stage, the knocking device 4 knocks the stator slot wedge, and the sound collection device 5 collects the sound information generated by the knocking vibration of the knocking device 4. Then, the tightness of the slot wedge can be identified by post-processing the collected sound information.
[0053] The method for post-processing the sound information includes: extracting the characteristics of the sound through frequency analysis, time domain analysis, and frequency domain analysis of the knocking sound, and comparing it with the sound samples of various states of the slot wedge, so as to obtain the tightness state of the slot wedge. The present invention can quickly detect all the slot wedges of the generator set, automatically save the original data, and generate a tightness pattern cloud map report matching the slot wedge position.
