Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of deformation measurement, and particularly relates to a blade deformation measurement device. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the existing low-pressure turbine working blades of engines on the market, as Figure 1 shown, are produced by using a directional solidification casting process, and their structures are divided into blade bodies, blade crowns, and tenons, etc. The blade body is a slender solid structure, and after undergoing thermal cycling or external force, it is prone to deformation. After deformation, its cross-section exceeds the tolerance range of the design requirements, resulting in the profile dimensions not meeting the design requirements. Therefore, after casting or repair, it is necessary to correct its cross-section to make the cross-sectional contour dimensions meet the design requirements.
[0003] In the correction operation of the blade, it is first necessary to solve the measurement of the blade profile, and then the controllable correction of the blade cross-section can be realized according to the measurement results. The existing blade profile measurement mainly uses a special measurement and positioning tooling to position the blade, measures the specified cross-section of the blade body with a template, and manually judges whether the cross-section needs to be corrected through the light transmission amount of the template. For the cross-section that needs to be corrected, the operator judges whether it is necessary to perform a bending or twisting operation. The advantages of this measurement method are simple and easy to implement, and low cost; the disadvantages are that it seriously depends on the operator's level and experience, and in addition, the measurement results are difficult to quantify, and the correction amount and correction direction completely depend on the operator's experience and level, judged by the operator independently, and the key process parameters in the correction process are uncontrollable.

[0027] The principles and features of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings. The examples given are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0028] Embodiment: As Figures 2 to 8 shown, the blade deformation measuring device of this embodiment includes a carrier 1, two support bases 2, a clamping and locking mechanism 3, and multiple pairs of rod-shaped displacement sensors 4. The two support bases 2 are installed at the upper end of the carrier 1 at intervals left and right. A first positioning portion for positioning the tenon of the blade (designated as M in the figure, Figure 6 , Figure 9 in the middle) is provided at the upper end of one of the support bases 2, and a second positioning portion for positioning the blade crown is provided at the upper end of the other support base 2. The clamping and locking mechanism 3 is arranged on the front side of the two support bases 2 and installed on the carrier 1 for clamping the horizontally placed blade on the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion. When the blade is clamped, its front side faces forward. Multiple pairs of the displacement sensors 4 are respectively installed above the carrier 1 through brackets. Multiple pairs of the displacement sensors 4 are distributed at intervals in the left-right direction between the two support bases 2. Each pair of the displacement sensors 4 has two arranged vertically, and the long axes of the two are in the same plane. The two displacement sensors 4 in each pair are respectively used to vertically contact the corresponding parts above and below the back of the blade.
[0029] The usage process is as follows:
[0030] In the present invention, first, a standard blade is placed on the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion at the upper ends of two support seats 2. Then, the tenon (designated as a in the figure) and the shroud (designated as b in the figure) of the standard blade are clamped and positioned with the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion through the clamping and locking mechanism 3. After that, the central axes of the two displacement sensors 4 in each pair of multiple pairs of displacement sensors 4 are made perpendicular to the back of the blade body of the standard blade (designated as c in the figure). First, the measured values of each pair of displacement sensors 4 after the standard blade is assembled are measured. Then, the standard blade is removed, and the blade to be measured (already deformed) is assembled in the same assembly manner as the standard blade. When measuring the torsional amount of the blade to be measured, the displacement value of any cross-section where the central axis of a pair of displacement sensors 4 is located relative to the standard blade along a certain direction can be measured. Through geometric relationships, the rotation angle of the measured cross-section can be obtained. By comparing this angle with the design model, the torsional angle of the measured cross-section can be obtained, that is, the torsional amount and the torsional direction of the measured cross-section are obtained. When measuring the bending amount, in the case of small deformation, the bending deformation is the deflection of the centroid of the measured surface, and the direction is in the plane with the torque direction as the normal. At the same time, the deformation of the plane can be decomposed into rotation and translation. The bending deformation amount is to measure the translational displacement value of the cross-section of the blade to be measured relative to the standard blade. This embodiment can quantify the measurement result of the blade profile into the torsional amount and the bending amount, and the measurement result is objectively quantified without relying on the operator's experience level.
[0031] It should be added that: multiple pairs of displacement sensors 4 are respectively connected to the computer mainframe, and the data is directly transmitted to the computer mainframe for calculation in the computer mainframe.

The above-mentioned first support block 21, tenon positioning cone 211 and tenon support block 212 together constitute the above-mentioned first positioning portion.
[0033] In the above-mentioned implementation scheme, when the blade is installed, the blade is horizontally placed left and right, and one side of its tenon (the rear side in the current state) abuts against the tenon positioning cone 211. Its lower end is located in the area between the tenon support block 212 and the first support block 21. And, the front part of the lower end of the tenon abuts against the tenon support block 212. Overall, the tenon is in a state of tilting backward, and its tilting angle is the same as the tilting angle of the first support block 21. Then, under the action of the clamping and locking mechanism 3, the tenon can be clamped and positioned.
[0034] In this embodiment, two tenon positioning cones 211 are preferably provided, which are distributed on the front side of the first support block 21 with an interval up and down.
[0035] As a preferred embodiment, another upper end of the above-mentioned support seat 2 is provided with a second support block 22, and the front part of the upper end of the support seat 2 is detachably equipped with a leaf crown support block 221, and the rear end of the second support block 22 close to the first support block 21 is provided with a mounting block 222, and the mounting block 222 is detachably equipped with a leaf back support block 223 for abutting against the back of the blade, and the side of the mounting block 222 away from the first support block 21 is detachably equipped with a horizontal positioning cone 224 for abutting against the side end of the blade leaf crown, and the second support block 22, the leaf crown support block 221, the leaf back support block 223 and the horizontal positioning cone 224 together constitute the above-mentioned second positioning portion.
[0036] In the above embodiment, when the blade is installed, the blade itself is placed horizontally left to right, and the rear side of the blade crown is against the front side of the second support block 22. At the same time, the back of the blade is against the blade back support block 223. At the same time, the lower end of the blade crown is located between the blade crown support block 221 and the second support block 22, the front part of the lower end of the blade crown is against the blade crown support block 221, and the horizontal positioning cone 224 is against the side end of the blade crown, and then the clamping of the clamping locking mechanism 3 is cooperated to clamp and fix the blade crown.
[0037] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 9 As shown, the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the leaf crown support block 221, the horizontal positioning cone 224 and the blade are all conductive components, and the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the leaf crown support block 221 and the horizontal positioning cone 224 are respectively connected to the blade through a wire, and the blade is connected to the positive or negative pole of the power supply. The tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the leaf crown support block 221 and the horizontal positioning cone 224 are respectively connected in series with an indicator light (indicated by L in the figure) through a wire, and each series circuit is respectively connected to the negative or positive pole of the power supply.
[0038] In the above embodiments, since the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the shroud support block 221, the horizontal positioning cone 224, and the blade are all conductive components, when the blade is clamped and fixed, if the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the shroud support block 221, and the horizontal positioning cone 224 are in good connection with the corresponding parts of the blade respectively, the indicator light will light up (the circuit is connected). If any one or more of the indicator lights in series with the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the shroud support block 221, and the horizontal positioning cone 224 do not light up, it means that the corresponding parts of the blade are not positioned properly, that is, the blade as a whole is not clamped and positioned well. At this time, according to the lighting situation of the indicator lights, adjust the clamping and positioning of the blade. After all the indicator lights are turned on, it means that the blade has been clamped and positioned well, and then proceed to the next measurement work to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent measurement results.
[0039] In this embodiment, the tenon positioning cone 211, the tenon support block 212, the shroud support block 221, and the horizontal positioning cone 224 are all detachably connected and need to be replaced in time after wear to not affect the measurement accuracy.

[0041] In the above embodiments, after the blade is placed on the first positioning part and the second positioning part at the upper ends of the two support seats 2, the telescopic driving device 32 extends, driving the clamping block 33 to move horizontally backward, so that the locking blocks 34 at both ends of the clamping block 33 move backward to contact the front sides of the tenon and the shroud of the blade, and clamp the tenon and the shroud between the two locking blocks 34 and the first support block 21 and the second support block 22.
