Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steam turbines, in particular to a steam seal ring structure of a steam turbine. Background Art
[0002] The steam seal ring of the steam turbine is an important part of the steam turbine. A certain gap must be left between the rotating and stationary parts of the steam turbine to prevent mutual friction. Therefore, a steam seal device must be installed. Its main function is to reduce steam leakage and improve the efficiency of the steam turbine.
[0003] It has been found in actual use that the existing steam seal ring has the following shortcomings:
[0004] Due to the large amount of steam leakage from the shaft seal (especially after the seal teeth are worn), the length of the heating section of the steam on the shaft increases, and the temperature also rises, which increases the expansion difference. The existing shaft seal sleeve and the seal ring correspond to each other in pairs. When they rotate radially, the connection seams between the shaft seal sleeve and the seal ring are easy to intersect with each other, and the high and low teeth of the boss on the shaft and the seal block are relatively displaced and fall over, resulting in an increase in the amount of gas leakage, which makes the sealing effect unable to be guaranteed;
[0005] In addition, when the steam turbine passes the critical speed during the start-up and shutdown process, the rotor amplitude is large, the radial installation clearance of the steam seal is small, and the steam seal teeth are easily worn. After the existing steam seal ring is installed, the steam seal clearance remains unchanged during operation without friction. In mild cases, the steam seal teeth will be worn, the steam seal clearance will be increased, and the heat loss will be increased. When the friction is serious, the steam seal teeth will be deformed, brittle or even broken.
[0006] Therefore, the present application provides a steam turbine seal ring structure to meet the demand. Utility Model Content
[0007] The utility model aims to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned background technology and proposes a steam turbine steam seal ring structure.
[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a steam turbine steam seal ring structure to solve the problems of the existing steam turbine steam seal ring structure.
[0009] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0010] A steam seal ring structure for a steam turbine comprises: a steam seal ring and a shaft seal sleeve, wherein the steam seal ring is composed of a plurality of steam seal blocks, and the shaft seal sleeve is composed of a plurality of shaft seal blocks. The outer end of the steam seal ring is provided with a shaft seal sleeve, the end face of the steam seal block is provided with a docking groove, the side face of the steam seal block is provided with a clamping groove, a reed is installed in the docking groove of the steam seal block, a telescopic spring is installed at the bottom of the reed, a docking block is provided on the side face of the shaft seal block, an installation groove is provided on the outer surface of the shaft seal block, and a connecting piece and a fixing bolt are installed in the installation groove of the shaft seal block.
[0011] Preferably, the steam seal ring as a whole is composed of two equally divided arc-shaped steam seal blocks connected end to end and surrounded, and the shaft seal sleeve as a whole is composed of three equally divided shaft seal blocks connected end to end and surrounded.
[0012] Preferably, the connecting seams between the shaft sealing blocks are staggered with the connecting seams between the steam sealing blocks.
[0013] Preferably, rectangular docking grooves are provided at both ends of the steam seal block, and the spring leaves extend outward to the outer ends of the docking grooves.
[0014] Preferably, a trapezoidal locking tooth is provided at the front end of the spring sheet, and the steam seal ring is mutually locked by the spring sheets on the end faces of the two groups of steam seal blocks.
[0015] Preferably, the telescopic spring is vertically installed at the bottom of the spring leaf, and the other end of the telescopic spring is in contact with the inner wall of the docking groove.
[0016] Preferably, the docking block is located on the inner side of the shaft sealing block, the docking block and the slot are both arc-shaped, and the docking block is embedded in the slot and fits with the slot.
[0017] Preferably, the docking block extends outward to the outer end of the groove of the steam sealing ring, and the connecting piece and the fixing bolt are located at the outer end of the steam sealing ring.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. The steam seal ring is composed of two equally divided arc-shaped steam seal blocks connected end to end, and the shaft seal sleeve is composed of three equally divided shaft seal blocks connected end to end. This can prevent the rotor amplitude from being large when the steam turbine exceeds the critical speed during the start-up and shutdown process, which makes the stress of the steam seal large when it moves radially, thereby ensuring a large gap and reducing the wear of the steam seal teeth. The connection seams between the shaft seal blocks are staggered with the connection seams between the steam seal blocks. The butt joint block of the shaft seal block is inserted into the groove of the steam seal block, which can eliminate the connection seam between the steam seal ring and the shaft seal sleeve, avoid the connection seams corresponding to each other, avoid relative displacement and lodging, and increase the leakage, thereby ensuring the sealing effect;
[0020] 2. The steam seal rings are connected to each other through the springs on the end faces of the two sets of steam seal blocks. The springs are stretched by their own elasticity and can eliminate the sealing between the steam seal blocks when moving. In the free state, under the action of the spring force, the two sets of steam seal blocks are in an open state and away from the rotor. When the machine is stopped, under the action of the spring stress of the telescopic spring, the distance between the springs is closer and the clamping is tighter, which increases the gap between the two sets of steam seal blocks, pushes the steam seal blocks away from the rotor, and makes the radial clearance between the steam seal and the rotor reach the maximum value, which can effectively reduce the problem of steam seal collision.

[0031] In this embodiment, the steam seal ring 1 as a whole is composed of two equally divided arc-shaped steam seal blocks 101 connected end to end and surrounded, and the shaft seal sleeve 2 as a whole is composed of three equally divided shaft seal blocks 201 connected end to end and surrounded. This can prevent the rotor amplitude from being large when the steam turbine exceeds the critical speed during the start-up and shutdown process, resulting in a large stress on the steam seal when it moves radially, thereby ensuring a large gap and reducing the wear of the steam seal teeth.
[0032] In this embodiment, the connection seams between the shaft seal blocks 201 and the connection seams between the steam seal blocks 101 are staggered, which can avoid the connection seams from corresponding to each other, avoid relative displacement and collapse, and increase the air leakage, thereby ensuring the sealing effect.

In the free state, under the action of the spring force, the two groups of steam seal blocks 101 are in an open state and away from the rotor, so that when the machine is stopped, under the action of the spring stress of the telescopic spring 4, the distance between the reeds 3 is closer and the clamping is tighter, so that the gap between the two groups of steam seal blocks 101 is increased, pushing the steam seal blocks 101 away from the rotor, so that the radial clearance between the steam seal and the rotor reaches the maximum value, which can effectively reduce the problem of steam seal collision.
