Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shipbuilding, and in particular to a magnetic suction detection method and device for detecting offset and tortuosity values of a ship shafting flange. Background Art
[0002] During the shipbuilding phase, the shaft flanges are inspected for warp and offset before installation. To inspect the shaft flange warp and offset, the flanges are first placed in the proper position as required, and then the shaft connecting bolts are installed to connect the two opposing flanges together. Since the stern and intermediate shafts are typically immobile during shaft alignment, a feeler gauge is typically used to inspect the shaft flange warp and offset. However, classification societies sometimes do not accept the use of feeler gauges as a measuring tool. If a dial indicator is used as a measuring tool, it must be mounted on a rotatable shaft. However, since neither the intermediate nor the stern shafts can rotate, a dial indicator cannot be used to measure the flange alignment accuracy between different intermediate shafts or between the intermediate and stern shafts. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a magnetic detection method and device for the offset and tortuosity of ship shafting flanges, which is used to solve the problem that in the prior art, only feeler gauges can be used to measure the flange alignment accuracy between different central shafts or intermediate shafts and the stern shaft, which cannot meet the relevant measurement requirements of classification societies.
