Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of large-scale water turbine generator unit reconstruction construction high-end equipment, mainly relates to a water turbine generator unit runner chamber concrete removal system and a use method, and is suitable for the removal construction of a water turbine generator unit runner chamber concrete. BACKGROUND

[0002] During the reconstruction of a 170MW unit of a certain large-scale hydropower station, the original runner chamber second-stage concrete needs to be removed, the minimum size of the inner diameter of the runner chamber shell is 11.00 meters, the maximum outer diameter to be reached during the removal is 13.5 meters, and the maximum diameter of the top individual position reaches 14.6 meters. The removal area has a height range of 6.16 meters, and the bottom elevation is 32.8 meters. At present, the removal construction methods commonly used in the industry mainly include manual mechanical methods, such as the use of mechanical equipment such as air picks, rock drills, and hydraulic splitting machines. However, this method has low efficiency, high risk of open-air operations, and high dust and noise, which poses a risk to occupational health. In the face of large-size runner chamber concrete removal, this method requires a large amount of manpower and a long construction period, and it is difficult to meet the on-site construction needs of large-scale water turbine unit reconstruction.

[0003] In view of the problems of manual removal operations, a paper entitled “CH Power Plant No. 1 Water Turbine Generator Unit Runner Chamber Reconstruction Practice” was published in the journal “Guangdong Water Resources and Hydropower” in November 2014, Issue 11. In the paper, it is also disclosed that during the reconstruction of the runner chamber, the old runner chamber needs to be removed. Since this unit is only 36MW, the removal operation is divided into three steps: steel panel, rib plate cutting and removal, and concrete drilling and breaking. The entire construction process still mainly relies on manual cutting, drilling, and concrete breaking operations. There are still problems such as high construction difficulty and large amount of manual work, which cannot be applied to the reconstruction of 170MW units.

[0004] Similarly, in view of the problems of manual removal operations, the paper “High-pressure Water Jet Breaking Runner Chamber Special Mechanical Design and Construction Technology Research” was published by the China Railway Engineering Equipment Group Co., Ltd. in the journal “Construction Technology” in April 2021. The paper discloses that high-pressure water jet breaking is used to break the concrete of the runner chamber structure, and a high-pressure water jet breaking robot is designed for runner chamber concrete breaking construction operations. The high-pressure water jet breaking robot is divided into a bearing platform, a breaking robot, a lifting and hoisting device, and auxiliary equipment. The bearing platform is connected to the top flange surface of the fixed guide vane, and the overall weight of the bearing device is borne by the bearing platform. The middle support connecting column of the bearing platform is connected to the lifting platform below, and the high-pressure water jet breaking robot works on the lifting platform. The lifting and hoisting device is placed on the bearing platform to lift the lifting platform and hoist the soil, and other auxiliary equipment including a high-pressure water jet generating device and a ventilation device is also placed on the bearing platform.

[0005] The special machine has the following problems in specific use:

[0006] (1) Since the diameter of the large runner chamber is a variable-diameter structure, the lifting platform with the above-mentioned fixed structure cannot well adapt to the change in diameter;

[0007] (2) Since the height to be removed of the large runner chamber is high, directly setting the connecting column at the central part of the runner chamber, the bottom of which is a cantilever structure, will shake and cannot guarantee the stability during the operation;

[0008] (3) The high-pressure water jet breaking robot used is a relatively independent structure and is supported on the lifting platform, and during the specific operation, the accurate control of the breaking and removing position of the robot cannot be realized;

[0009] (4) The relatively independent control structure is used between different modules of the above-mentioned special machine, and during the operation, full-automatic breaking operation cannot be realized.

[0010] In addition, in view of the problem of manual removal operation, China Railway Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd. discloses a runner chamber cutting and removing construction process in CN112692537A, which mainly uses a water jet as the main body of cutting and adopts a block type cutting operation mode to cut and remove the runner chamber concrete. However, this removal process can only stay in theory and has not been implemented, and there are still many details to be overcome during the specific implementation, and it cannot be practically applied to the removal of the runner chamber concrete of the existing hydroelectric generator set.
