Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of compressors, and in particular relates to an adjustable stator blade angle fixing tool for a gas turbine compressor. Background Art

[0002] The compressor variable stator (VSV) mechanism is one of the important anti-surge measures for gas turbines. Under non-design conditions of the compressor, by adjusting the stator installation angle to reduce the inlet airflow angle of the next-stage moving blades, the airflow separation can be effectively suppressed, thereby achieving the function of improving the performance parameters of the compressor and gas turbine under non-design conditions. Most modern gas turbines use a multi-stage adjustable stator structure.

[0003] Working process of adjustable stator blades: Generally, the controller sends instructions to the actuator according to the received temperature, speed and other signals. The joystick of the actuator drives the linkage ring to rotate, and the linkage ring drives the rocker arms of all the guide blades of this stage, so that all the blades rotate synchronously at a corresponding angle. During the assembly process, the adjustable stator blades of each level must first be turned to their respective design angles and fixed before the stator blade tip can be ground. Then, the adjustable stator blades of each level must also be turned to their respective limit angles to determine the initial position of the actuator. Therefore, a device is required to fix the adjustable blades at a predetermined angle.

[0004] In the prior art, a protractor is usually used to measure the angle between the center line of the rocker arm and the center line of the engine, and an adjustable stator is fixed by increasing the tightening torque. This method has the following disadvantages: 1. The error is relatively large. Since the adjustable blade is installed in the circumferential direction, the angle measurement is not flat, and the protractor can only be held by hand and cannot be fixed in position, so there is a large error in the measurement. 2. Increasing the tightening torque will damage the thread at the top of the blade. 3. The consistency is poor.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an adjustable stator blade angle fixing tool with high precision, convenient use and good installation consistency. Summary of the invention

[0031] The rocker arm 2 is used to adjust the angle of the adjustable stator blade 1;

[0032] A hollow connecting rod 5 connected to the rocker arm 2 and used to limit the adjustment range of the adjustable stator blade 1; and

[0033] The sleeve 6 is used to assist the connection between the rocker arm 2 and the adjustable stator blade 1 .

[0034] In some embodiments, one end of the rocker arm 2 is provided with a through hole for connecting with the adjustable stator blade 1 , and the other end is provided with a fixing piece for connecting with the linkage ring 3 .

[0035] In some embodiments, the diameter of the through hole is larger than the threaded rod at the top end of the adjustable stationary blade 1, and the fixing member is a pin.

[0036] In some embodiments, the pin is riveted or welded to the rocker arm 2 .

[0037] In some embodiments, one end of the hollow connecting rod 5 is provided with a connection hole for connecting with the rocker arm 2, and the center of the other end is provided with a rectangular hole for limiting the adjustment range of the adjustable stator blade 1. The diameter of the connection hole is the same as the through hole of the rocker arm 2.

[0038] In some embodiments, the width of the rectangular hole is the same as the diameter of the threaded rod at the upper end of the adjustable stationary blade 1, and the length is greater than the sum of the diameters of the two threaded rods. The width of the rectangular hole is the same as the threaded rod so that the threaded rod can just pass through the rectangular hole; the length is greater than the sum of the diameters of the two threaded rods to meet the requirement that each end of the hollow connecting rod 5 passes through a threaded rod of the adjustable stationary blade 1.

[0039] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the sleeve 6 is the same as the diameter of the through hole of the rocker arm 2. The sleeve 6 is a metal ring.

[0040] In some embodiments, the through hole of the rocker arm 2 , the connecting hole of the hollow connecting rod 5 , and the sleeve 6 are aligned.

[0041] In some embodiments, the rocker arm 2, the hollow connecting rod 5 and the sleeve 6 are all made of metal.

[0044] The adjustable stationary blade 1 is installed in the circular mounting hole of the casing, one end of the through hole of the rocker arm 2 passes through the threaded rod at the top of the blade, the metal sheet of the rocker arm 2 is embedded in the rectangular groove of the blade head, and the pin at the other end of the rocker arm 2 is inserted into the hole on the linkage ring 3. The through hole of the angle fixing tool 4 passes through the threaded rod at the top of the adjustable stationary blade 1, and the rectangular hole passes through the threaded rod of the adjacent adjustable blade, and then fixed on the threaded rod of the adjustable stationary blade 1 by a nut. If necessary, a gasket can be added between the rocker arm 2 and the casing to adjust the rotation torque of the blade.

[0045] The holes on the linkage ring 3 that match the pins of the rocker arm 2 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction, so as long as the angle fixing tool 4 is installed on one blade, the angles of all blades in this stage can be guaranteed to be consistent. Moreover, the angle fixing tool designed in this way has a simple structure, is easy to disassemble and assemble, and has low cost. And the consistency is very good.
