Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of manufacturing hydro-generators, and particularly to a novel connection structure applicable to the rotor poles and yoke of a bulb-type hydro-generator. Background Art

[0002] The fixing method of the rotor poles and yoke of a hydro-generator should be determined according to factors such as the capacity of the generator, the strength requirements of the poles for the runaway speed, and the processing equipment conditions of the manufacturer.

[0003] In fact, regarding the specific connection and fixing methods of the poles, the structural designs adopted by each manufacturer are not exactly the same. Currently, the traditional connection method mostly uses a T-tail, and the poles are fixed by means of a stop block, gasket, wedge block and bolt tightening. For small and medium-sized bulb tubular hydro-generators without yoke laminations, the rotor poles are fixed to the yoke ring by tension bolts. However, for large-capacity bulb tubular hydro-generators (with an outer diameter of stator punching sheets above 7560 mm, a core length above 1400 mm, and a rated capacity above 35,000 KVA), due to the adoption of a yoke lamination structure similar to that of vertical units, a pole core structure without pole clamping plates, and special-shaped dove tails for pole punching sheets, the connection and fixing method of the rotor poles and yoke shows certain particularity.

[0004] The State Intellectual Property Office publicly disclosed a patent for invention with the publication number CN207426840U and the name "A fixing structure for poles and yoke" on November 08, 2017. The following content is included in the specification of this patent for invention: "Two groups of pole keys are symmetrically arranged between the working surface and the stress surface of the pole. In the present invention, the length of the pole key is longer than the axial length of the pole. Among them, the pole key includes a main key and a sub-key, both of which are wedge-shaped structures. The contact surface between the main key and the sub-key is an inclined surface, the contact surface between the main key and the working surface of the pole is a plane, and the contact surface between the sub-key and the stress surface is a plane."

[0005] As can be seen from the above, most of the existing technologies use the method of arranging pole keys between the poles and the yoke to connect and fix the poles and the yoke, and most of the existing pole keys are wedge-shaped structures. The tightening effect is achieved by squeezing the pole key along the inclined surface. However, in practice, the poles and the yoke will generate a huge reaction force on the pole key. Due to the huge reaction force, when the fixed part is damaged and fails, the pole key moves in the reverse direction under the reaction force, resulting in the loosening of the poles and the yoke, causing a huge potential safety hazard.

[0006] The existing technology has problems such as unstable connection between the poles and the yoke, inability to effectively prevent the pole key from loosening and failing, having a huge potential safety hazard, and low service life of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention relates to a novel connection structure applicable to the rotor poles and the yoke of a bulb-type hydrogenerator.

[0038] Embodiment 1:

[0039] The present invention relates to a new connection structure applicable to the rotor pole and yoke of a bulb-type hydrogenerator, including: pole 1, connection mechanism 2, yoke 3, and self-locking tensioning mechanism 4.

The other end of the self-locking pin 411 is a bevel surface and is matched with the self-locking hole 421. The bevel surface of the self-locking pin 411 has the same inclination direction as the bevel surface of the main tooth plate 41. The self-locking pin 411, the stepped through hole 415, the internal baffle 414 and the baffle hole 416 are all square, so that the bevel surface of the self-locking pin 411 has the same inclination direction as the bevel surface of the main tooth plate 41 and will not rotate.

[0042] The connecting mechanism 2 includes: a fixing mechanism 21 and a pressing mechanism 22. The fixing mechanism 21 is arranged on the yoke 3 and is located on the upstream side.

[0043] The fixing mechanism 21 includes: a supporting block 211 and a telescopic bolt 212. The supporting block 211 is arranged on the yoke 3 and is located on the upstream side. The supporting block 211 is fixed to the yoke 3 by screws and is firmly spot-welded to form a non-detachable structure. The supporting block 211 blocks the main tooth plate 41. The first telescopic bolt 212 is arranged on the supporting block 211. The first telescopic bolt 212 presses the magnetic pole 1. The first telescopic bolt 212 is used to adjust and hold the magnetic pole 1. A round hole is machined at a suitable position on the supporting block 211 for disassembling the main tooth plate 41 and the auxiliary tooth plate 42.

[0044] The pressing mechanism 22 includes: a pressing plate 221 and a second telescopic bolt 222. The pressing plate 221 is arranged on the yoke 3 and is located on the downstream side. The pressing plate 221 connects the magnetic pole 1 and the yoke 3. The pressing plate 221 is fixed to the magnetic pole 1 and the yoke 3 by screws to form a detachable structure. The second telescopic bolt 222 is arranged on the pressing plate 221. The second telescopic bolt 222 presses the auxiliary tooth plate 42. By screwing the second telescopic bolt 222 to make the second telescopic bolt 222 extend, the auxiliary tooth plate 42 is pressed to firmly connect the magnetic pole 1 and the yoke 3.

[0046] Such a setting solves the problems that the connection between the magnetic pole and the yoke is unstable, the magnetic pole key cannot be effectively prevented from loosening and failing, there are huge potential safety hazards, and the service life of the equipment is low. The serrated magnetic pole key structure is adopted to form a form of shim with adjustable thickness, making the assembly of the magnetic pole simple and flexible, and facilitating the installation of the power station. A new type of self-locking structure is adopted to prevent the magnetic pole key from being damaged and loosened at the connection part or loosening under the huge reaction force between the magnetic pole and the yoke, and can maintain a stable fastening effect on the magnetic pole and the yoke, with the effects of convenient and fast installation, stable and firm connection, reducing potential safety hazards, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0047] Working principle:

[0048] During installation, the self-locking pin 411, the spring 412, and the counterweight pressing block 413 are installed in the stepped through-hole 415 in sequence, inverted so that the counterweight pressing block 413 presses the spring 412 and the built-in baffle 414 is installed in the baffle hole 416 to block the counterweight pressing block 413. Then the built-in baffle 414 is fixed to the yoke 3 by screws. The assembled main tooth plate 41 and the sub-tooth plate 42 are installed in the gap formed by the side surfaces of the dovetail protrusion 11 and the dovetail groove 31. The sub-tooth plate 42 is adjusted and tightened by the second telescopic bolt 222. The sub-tooth plate 42 and the main tooth plate 41 cooperate to firmly connect the magnetic pole 1 and the yoke 3. During the process of tightening the sub-tooth plate 42, the self-locking pin 411 extends into the self-locking hole 421 to prevent the magnetic pole key from moving in the reverse direction, achieving a self-locking effect.

[0049] During disassembly, first remove the built-in baffle 414, and the self-locking pin 411, the spring 412, and the counterweight pressing block 413 fall. The self-locking pin 411 disengages from the self-locking hole 421. Remove the pressing plate 221 on the downstream side, and then strike the sub-tooth plate 42 through the round hole on the support block 211 from the upstream side to loosen the contact surface between the main tooth plate 41 and the sub-tooth plate 42, so as to remove the rotor magnetic pole.
