Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a turbine blade sealing processing fixture includes a processing table 1, a sealing device 10, a sealing seat 14, a connector 15, a sealing plug 16, and an air pipe 17. The sealing plug 16 is disposed in the connector 15. The connector 15 is installed in the sealing seat 14. The sealing seat 14 is disposed on the processing table 1. The lower end of the inner hole of the turbine blade body is installed on the connector 15, and the upper end of the inner hole is provided with the sealing device 10. The sealing device 10 is provided with an air inlet duct 101 and an exhaust duct 102. The air pipe 17 passes through the processing table 1 and the sealing plug 16 and is connected to the air inlet duct 101. The exhaust port of the exhaust channel 102 faces the upper surface of the inner hole of the turbine blade body, so that the airflow blows the upper surface of the inner hole of the turbine blade body. This changes the traditional sealing tooling that only blocks the inner hole of the turbine blade without dispersing the processing iron filings and debris. The present invention uses the ingenious combination structure of the sealing device 10, sealing seat 14, docking device 15 and sealing plug 16 to block the inner hole of the turbine blade. Moreover, the airflow sent from the air pipe 17 blows away the iron filings and splashes during processing. The combination of blocking and dispersing methods greatly improves the processing quality of the turbine blade.
[0021] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing device 10 has a crescent-shaped structure, although a cylindrical structure can also be used. However, a crescent-shaped structure is preferred because it saves raw materials and facilitates processing. An arc-shaped air inlet duct 101 is provided internally, and an exhaust channel 102 communicating with the air inlet duct 101 is provided on the side wall. Multiple exhaust channels 102 are provided, and the exhaust ports of the inclined exhaust channels 102 blow against the upper surface of the inner hole of the turbine blade body. This structure is more effective at blowing away iron filings and splashes, resulting in higher efficiency. The sealing device 10 is preferably made of polyurethane material, which has better processing and sealing effects.
[0022] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air intake duct 101 extends to the upper surface of the sealer 10 and is blocked by a plug 18. The air intake duct 101 can be cleaned periodically by opening the plug 18, improving the quality of turbine blade processing and preventing blockages from affecting purging efficiency. Figure 4As shown, the air pipe 17 is inserted into the upper end side of the sealer 10 and has an air hole 171. Air enters through the air pipe 17, is transported from the air hole 171 to the air intake channel 101, and is blown out from the exhaust channel 102, which is inclined to the upper surface of the inner hole of the turbine blade body, to blow away the iron filings and splashes during the turbine blade processing.
[0023] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the machining table 1 is equipped with a positioning baffle 3 and a feed seat 12; the locking screw 13 passes through the feed seat 12 and is fixed to the pressure block 11; the turbine blade body is positioned on the machining table 1 through the connector 15 and the positioning baffle 3, and is radially clamped under the action of the locking screw 13. The machining table 1 is equipped with a bracket 4; the upper end of the bracket 4 is equipped with an electric push rod 7, and the middle is equipped with a slidably adjustable horizontal plate 5; the horizontal plate 5 is equipped with a lower pressure plate 8, and the pressure rods 9 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the lower pressure plate 8 pass through the guide holes provided on the horizontal plate 5, pressing downwards against the upper surface of the turbine blade body under the power of the electric push rod 7. This fixture can clamp the turbine blade body radially and axially, achieving precise positioning and clamping, improving machining accuracy and quality.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the front end of the electric push rod 7 is fixed to the upper surface of the lower pressure plate 8; a spring buffer 6 is provided under the lower pressure plate 8; the spring buffer 6 is centrally located between the lower pressure plate 8 and the horizontal plate 5.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the support 4 has an adjustment groove 42 on its side; a support slide plate 43 is provided below the horizontal plate 5 and slidably connected to the side of the support 4; the horizontal plate 5 is fixed in the adjustment groove 42 by locking bolts 41. The lower end of the support 4 has a protrusion, and the processing table 1 has a corresponding groove; the protrusion at the lower end of the support 4 connects to the groove of the processing table 1, allowing the support 4 to move on the processing table 1, and the upper pressure plate 2 fixes the support 4 to the processing table 1. By moving the horizontal plate 5 up and down in the adjustment groove 42, turbine blades of different heights can be processed, resulting in greater adaptability and versatility. By connecting the protrusion at the lower end of the support 4 to the groove of the processing table 1, the support 4 can move horizontally on the processing table 1, enabling the processing of turbine blades of different specifications on the same processing table 1 using a single axial clamping device, improving equipment efficiency and significantly reducing costs.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
