Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of double-wall pipe correction tools for diesel engines, and particularly relates to a double-wall pipe correction tool for a methanol dual-fuel marine low-speed diesel engine. Background Art
[0002] As an environment-friendly power device, the double-wall pipe of a methanol dual-fuel marine low-speed diesel engine is used to transport methanol fuel and needs to meet strict dimensional accuracy requirements to ensure sealing and safety. In the prior art, such double-wall pipes are mostly made of imported stainless steel materials, without spare parts supply, and are prone to dimensional out-of-tolerance due to external force or stress during the assembly process, such as bending and ovality deviation, directly resulting in inability to assemble.
[0003] The correction of the double-wall pipe of the existing methanol dual-fuel marine low-speed diesel engine relies on manual knocking or mechanical jacking, which has problems such as low efficiency, high labor intensity, difficult precision control, and lack of versatility, and cannot adapt to the requirements of different models and pipe diameters. For example, during the assembly of the first domestic 6G50MEC9.6 LGIM-EGRBP#1 methanol dual-fuel main engine, due to the dimensional out-of-tolerance of the double-wall pipe, there is a risk of suspension of work, and there is an urgent need for an efficient, universal and easy-to-operate correction tool. Although there are correction devices for single-wall pipes in the prior art, due to the complex structure and large difference in material toughness of double-wall pipes, conventional tools are prone to secondary deformation or damage. Therefore, developing a correction tool that can adapt to multiple models and precisely adjust the dimensions of double-wall pipes through mechanical force has become a key requirement for improving the assembly efficiency and quality of methanol main engines. Summary of the Invention

[0036] By rotating the adjustment component 1, the first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 move in the same or opposite directions, thereby generating an axial thrust or tension, and then applying a radial force to the double-wall pipe 10 disposed within the arc-shaped clamping surfaces of the first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 to correct its dimensions to the range required by the drawing.
[0037] The thread leads of the first internal threaded pipe 11 and the second internal threaded pipe 12 of the adjustment device 1 are 2 - 5 mm, and the rotation angle range is 0 - 360°.
[0038] The arc-shaped clamping surfaces of the first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 are covered with a polyurethane anti-slip layer.
[0039] A first washer 31 is provided between the first pipe clamp fixing member 211 and the first connecting bolt 41; a second washer 32 is provided between the second pipe clamp fixing member 221 and the second connecting bolt 42. The first washer 31 and the second washer 32 are made of elastic rubber and have a thickness of 3 - 8 mm.

[0047] Figure 5 Shown as follows: The specific implementation steps of the double-wall pipe correction tooling for the methanol dual-fuel marine low-speed diesel engine according to the present invention are as follows:
[0048] Step 1. Tooling assembly
[0049] Select the suitable first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 according to the diameter of the target double-wall pipe 1. Place the first washer 31 and second washer 32 between the first pipe clamp 21, second pipe clamp 22 and the adjustment component 1, and fasten them respectively through the first connecting bolt 41 and second connecting bolt 42. Ensure that the arc-shaped clamping surfaces of the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 fit the outer diameter of the double-wall pipe 10, and the polyurethane anti-slip layer faces the pipe body of the double-wall pipe 10 to avoid slipping.
[0050] Step 2. Dimension adjustment
[0051] Rotate the handwheel of the adjustment component 1, and drive the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 to move axially through the internal thread structures of the first internal thread pipe 11 and second internal thread pipe 12. In the initial state, make the distance between the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 greater than the actual distance dimension of the double-wall pipe 10. Set the tooling on the pipe section of the double-wall pipe 10 to be corrected, and manually pre-tighten the first connecting bolt 41 and second connecting bolt 42 until the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 slightly clamp the pipe body of the double-wall pipe 10 respectively.
[0052] Step 3. Straightening operation
[0053] Continue to rotate the adjustment component 1 clockwise. The internal thread structures of the first internal thread pipe 11 and second internal thread pipe 12 generate a thrust force to make the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 contract inward, and apply a uniform radial pressure to the double-wall pipe 10; if it is necessary to expand the diameter of the double-wall pipe 10, rotate the adjustment component 1 counterclockwise to expand the first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22 through the pulling force. During the straightening process, control the rotation force through a digital display torque wrench to ensure that the straightening force does not exceed 20 kN to avoid overloading and damaging the pipe body of the double-wall pipe 10.
[0054] Step 4. Stress release
[0055] After the straightening is completed, keep the tooling in the clamping state, let the double-wall pipe 10 stand still for 10 minutes to allow the internal stress to be released naturally. During this period, the key dimensions can be measured multiple times with a micrometer. If the springback amount exceeds the tolerance: ±0.5 mm, it is necessary to finely adjust the adjustment device for compensation.
[0056] Step 5. Disassembly and inspection
[0057] Loosen the first connecting bolt 41 and second connecting bolt 42, remove the tooling, and use a 3D scanner or caliper to comprehensively detect the dimensions of the double-wall pipe 10. After confirming that it meets the requirements of the drawing, proceed with the assembly. If it is unqualified, repeat steps 2-4 until it meets the standard.
[0058] Taking the Φ150 mm double-wall pipe of the 7G80MEC methanol main engine as an example:
[0059] Select the corresponding first pipe clamp 21 and second pipe clamp 22, clamp the arc of 150±1mm, install the tooling and pre-tighten until the distance between the first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 is 602mm;
[0060] Insert the double-walled pipe 10, rotate and adjust the component 1 to a torque of 15 kN·m, and shrink the distance between the first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 to 600 mm;
[0061] After standing for 10 minutes, the re-measured size is 600.2mm, which meets the tolerance requirements and the correction is completed.
[0062] Key Components Description
[0063] The first internally threaded tube 11 and the second internally threaded tube 12 adopt trapezoidal threads with a lead of 3 mm. A rotation of one circle generates an axial displacement of 3 mm, and the accuracy is controllable;
[0064] The first pipe clamp 21 and the second pipe clamp 22 are split-type designs, which support quick replacement and cover pipe diameters of 50-300 mm;
[0065] The first gasket 31 and the second gasket 32 are made of rubber and have a thickness of 5 mm. They can buffer local pressure and prevent the double-walled tube 10 from being indented.
[0066] This implementation method achieves efficient and accurate correction of double-walled pipes through modular design and mechanical optimization, significantly improving the assembly reliability and economy of the methanol main engine.
[0067] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
