Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of turbocharger technology, and in particular to a device and structure for disassembling and assembling a compressor impeller. Background Technology
[0002] Turbochargers are typical components for diesel engines. Working together with a diesel engine, they can effectively increase the engine's output power.
[0003] When installing or removing turbochargers on a ship, due to the limited space, only one or two people are allowed to carry out the work. The tools used for installation and removal should be designed to be labor-saving, convenient, easy to operate, and practical.
[0004] In previous turbocharger disassembly and assembly methods, the compressor impeller was disassembled primarily by the installer manually aligning the impeller with the turbine shaft and rotating the impeller. This method presents the following problems when disassembling heavier compressor impellers:
[0005] a. The compressor impeller falls off. The compressor impeller is a high-precision and easily damaged part. If the compressor impeller falls off, it will damage the structure of the compressor impeller and make it unusable.
[0006] b. During the assembly of the compressor impeller and the turbine shaft threaded connection, it is not easy to align them. If the threads are misaligned, the compressor impeller threads will be easily damaged, thus destroying the compressor impeller structure. Summary of the Invention

A connecting flange is provided in the middle of the connecting shaft. An impeller limiting step is formed between the connecting flange and the impeller positioning part. A lifting tool limiting step is formed between the lifting tool positioning part and the middle of the connecting shaft. A plurality of impeller fastening screws are provided circumferentially on the connecting flange. A positioning block is provided at the lower end of the lifting tool. The positioning block is fitted onto the lifting tool positioning part with a clearance fit to form a rotatable connection. The lifting tool positioning part is provided with a limiting structure to limit the positioning block.
[0010] Preferably, the limiting structure includes a lifting device limiting bolt arranged axially on the lifting device positioning part, a limiting washer provided between the nut of the lifting device limiting bolt and the lifting device positioning part, and an installation space for the positioning block is formed between the limiting washer and the lifting device limiting step, wherein the axial length of the installation space is greater than the width of the positioning block.
[0011] Preferably, the impeller fastening screw is an internal hexagonal screw, and the lifting device limiting screw is a hexagonal head bolt.
[0012] Preferably, the hoisting tool is in the shape of a "┍", the positioning block is fixed to the lower end of the upright of the hoisting tool, and a shackle is provided at the end of the horizontal bar of the hoisting tool.

[0024] See Figures 1-4 This is a device for disassembling and assembling a compressor impeller, comprising a connecting shaft and a lifting tool. One axial end (large cylindrical end) of the connecting shaft is an impeller positioning part, and the other axial end (small cylindrical end) of the connecting shaft is a lifting tool positioning part. A connecting flange is provided in the middle of the connecting shaft, and an impeller limiting step is formed between the connecting flange and the impeller positioning part. A lifting tool limiting step is formed between the lifting tool positioning part and the middle of the connecting shaft. Several impeller fastening screws are provided circumferentially on the connecting flange. The impeller fastening screws are hexagonal socket head cap screws. A positioning block is provided at the lower end of the lifting tool. The positioning block is fitted onto the lifting tool positioning part with a clearance fit to form a rotatable connection. The lifting tool positioning part is provided with a limiting structure to limit the positioning block.
[0025] The limiting structure includes a lifting tool limiting bolt axially arranged on the lifting tool positioning part. A limiting washer is provided between the nut of the lifting tool limiting bolt and the lifting tool positioning part. An installation space for the positioning block is formed between the limiting washer and the lifting tool limiting step. The axial length of the installation space is greater than the width of the positioning block. This allows the lifting tool to move axially within a small range on the connecting flange, preventing jamming and ensuring that the compressor impeller can rotate radially during lifting. The lifting tool limiting screw is a hexagonal head bolt. The lifting tool is "┍" shaped, the positioning block is fixed to the lower end of the lifting tool's upright, and a shackle is provided at the end of the lifting tool's crossbar.

The end of the compressor impeller is provided with a positioning hole and several threaded holes. The impeller positioning part of the connecting shaft is inserted into the positioning hole of the compressor impeller to form radial positioning. Each impeller fastening screw on the connecting flange is respectively engaged with the threaded hole on the compressor impeller to fix the connecting shaft and the compressor impeller. The shackle is located directly above the compressor impeller.
[0027] Installation method:
