Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tail shaft bearing, in particular to a kind of air pressure regulation adaptive water-lubricated tail shaft bearing and regulation detection method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Ship propulsion shafting is an important part of ship power system. Among them, the tail bearing is used to support the propeller shaft, which is the key component of the propulsion shafting. However, due to the cantilever effect of propeller gravity, the edge effect of the tail bearing pressure stress distribution, the end surface contact pressure stress near the propeller reaches the maximum, and the deformation is also the largest, and gradually decreases from the maximum to the bow end. Therefore, the working conditions of the end surface near the propeller side are poor, which has an important influence on the service performance and life cycle of the ship tail bearing.

[0003] The existing tail bearing (such as a new type of adaptive water-lubricated thrust bearing disclosed in application No. 201710013245.1) realizes the self-adaptive function through the rigid-flexible composite structure of the thrust pad during work. When the pad surface of the thrust pad bears uneven load, the self-adaptive deformation of each pad surface can make the bearing surface force more balanced. The pad surface height of the pad surface with greater force must be greater than that of the pad surface with smaller force. The greater the force, the greater the axial deformation of the thrust pad caused by it. Therefore, the height of each pad surface is adjusted through the deformation of the thrust pad to achieve the goal of uniform load of each pad surface. However, this self-adaptive function is passive and cannot actively adjust the height of each pad surface to ensure that the axis of the tail bearing bushing is approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft. In addition, most of the water area of ship navigation is the estuary of Yangtze River and Yellow River. The sea water is full of silt all year round, which can easily cause wear of the inner liner. Since the wear condition of the bushing cannot be detected, when the inner liner is worn, the tail bearing cannot work. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear and understandable, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0026] The present application provides a gas pressure regulation adaptive water-lubricated tail bearing, the structure of which is shown in Figure 1 - Figure 5 The tail bearing body 100 includes a bushing 110, a plurality of air tires 120, a plurality of stands 130, a plurality of inner linings 140, a plurality of air inlet valves and a plurality of air outlet valves. Each of the air tires 120 is circumferentially fixed in the bushing 110, each of the stands 130 is fixed to the inner side of the corresponding air tire 120, each of the inner linings 140 is fixed to the inner side of the corresponding stand 130 and encloses a through hole 141 for the propeller shaft to pass through, each of the air tires 120 is provided with an air hole 121, and each of the air inlet valves and the air outlet valves is arranged in the corresponding air hole 121. The control unit 200 is used to monitor and adjust the air pressure in each of the air tires 120.

[0027] Under actual ship operating conditions, the inner liner 140 near the propeller end experiences the greatest contact compressive stress. First, the control unit 200 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the pneumatic tubes 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a zero-wear state. 1(x) The control unit 200 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the pneumatic tires 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of extreme wear. 3(x) The maximum threshold difference ΔF is calculated by the control unit 200. (x)最大 Secondly, the control unit 200 collects and judges the air pressure data inside each of the air tires 120 in real time. (x) The control unit 200 controls the corresponding vent valve to release air, thereby reducing the air pressure f in the air tire 120 near the propeller end. (x) Reduce to F 1(x) The control unit 200 controls the corresponding air intake valve to intake air, thereby increasing the air pressure f in the air tire 120 at the end furthest from the propeller. (x) Increase to F 1(x) This makes the axis of the inner liner 140 approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft. At this time, the stress difference generated at the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is equal to zero. Finally, when the air pressure f in the air tube 120 near the propeller end... (x) equals F 1(x) If the stress difference between the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is greater than zero, it indicates that the inner liner 140 is worn. The control unit 200 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the air tubes 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of intermittent wear. 2(x) The interval threshold difference ΔF is calculated by the control unit 200. (x)区间 Then, the control unit 200 calculates △F. (x)区间 With △F (x)最大 The difference in pressure indicates that the inner liner 140 is less worn when the difference is large, and that the inner liner 140 is more worn when the difference is small. In this invention, the air pressure in each of the air tubes 120 can be actively adjusted so that the axis of the bushing 110 is approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft. This ensures that the compressive stress generated by the propeller shaft on the tail bearing is evenly distributed, allowing the tail bearing to adapt to the actual load. Overall, this can significantly improve the contact performance of the tail bearing. In addition, the wear condition of each bushing 110 can be detected. When the inner liner 140 is worn, it can be replaced in time, ensuring the normal operation of the tail bearing.

Under the actual ship operation condition, the inner bush 140 will be inclined approximately parallel to the propeller shaft under the combined action of the gravity of the propeller shaft, the internal pressure of the air tire 120 and the support 130. However, since the inner bush 140 cannot be absolutely parallel to the propeller shaft, and the air pressure change in the air tire 120 will have a certain delay, the inner bush 140 near the propeller will inevitably be worn to a certain extent.

(x) equals F 1(x) When the stress difference between the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is greater than zero, the inner liner 140 shows wear; the display processing module 230 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the air tires 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of interval wear. 2(x) The display processing module 230 calculates the interval threshold difference ΔF.

[0045] To better understand this invention, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 5 The working principle of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below:

[0046] Under actual ship operating conditions, the inner liner 140 near the propeller end experiences the greatest contact compressive stress. First, the display processing module 230 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the pneumatic tubes 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a zero-wear state. 1(x) The display processing module 230 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the pneumatic tires 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of extreme wear. 3(x) The maximum threshold difference ΔF is calculated by the display processing module 230. (x)最大Secondly, the air pressure monitoring module 210 collects the air pressure data inside each of the air tires 120 in real time. (x) The data judgment module 220 judges the air pressure data f inside each of the air tires 120. (x) When f (x) Less than F 1(x) Inflate the corresponding pneumatic tire 120 with air, when f (x) Greater than F 1(x) Deflate the corresponding pneumatic tire 120 when f (x) equals F 1(x) The corresponding air tire 120 is neither inflated nor deflated. The air pressure control module 240 controls the corresponding deflation valve to release air, reducing the air pressure f in the air tire 120 near the propeller end. (x) Reduce to F 1(x) The air pressure control module 240 controls the corresponding air intake valve to intake air, thereby increasing the air pressure f in the air tire 120 at the end furthest from the propeller. (x) Increase to F 1(x) This makes the axis of the inner liner 140 approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft. At this time, the stress difference generated at the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is equal to zero. If the air pressure f in the air tube 120 near the propeller end... (x) Even if the pressure remains unchanged or increases, although the inner liner 140 will still tilt under the weight of the propeller, due to the reaction force, the compressive stress on the inner and outer sides of the inner liner 140 near the propeller end is still much greater than in other locations. The compressive stress generated by the propeller shaft on the tail bearing is still uneven. Finally, when the air pressure f in the air tube 120 near the propeller end increases... (x) equals F 1(x) If the stress difference between the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is greater than zero, it indicates that the inner liner 140 is worn. The display processing module 230 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the air tires 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of intermittent wear. 2(x) The interval threshold difference ΔF is calculated by the display processing module 230. (x)区间 Then, the display processing module 230 calculates △F. (x)区间 With △F (x)最大The difference in pressure indicates that the inner liner 140 is less worn when the difference is large, and that the inner liner 140 is more worn when the difference is small. In this invention, the air pressure in each of the air tubes 120 can be actively adjusted so that the axis of the bushing 110 is approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft. This ensures that the compressive stress generated by the propeller shaft on the tail bearing is evenly distributed, allowing the tail bearing to adapt to the actual load. Overall, this can significantly improve the contact performance of the tail bearing. In addition, the wear condition of each bushing 110 can be detected. When the inner liner 140 is worn, it can be replaced in time, ensuring the normal operation of the tail bearing.

[0047] The pneumatically regulated adaptive water-lubricated tail bearing and its regulation and detection method provided by this invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0048] (1) The air pressure control module 240 controls the corresponding vent valve to release air, thereby reducing the air pressure f in the air tube 120 near the propeller end. (x) Reduce to F 1(x) The air pressure control module 240 controls the corresponding air intake valve to intake air, thereby increasing the air pressure f in the air tire 120 at the end furthest from the propeller. (x) Increase to F 1(x) This makes the axis of the liner 140 approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft;

[0049] (2) When the air pressure f in the pneumatic tube 120 near one end of the propeller (x) equals F 1(x) If the stress difference between the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is greater than zero, it indicates that the inner liner 140 is worn. The display processing module 230 calculates the threshold F that the air pressure inside each of the air tires 120 should reach when the inner liner 140 is in a state of intermittent wear. 2(x) The interval threshold difference ΔF is calculated by the display processing module 230. (x)区间 Then, the display processing module 230 calculates △F. (x)区间 With △F (x)最大 The difference indicates that the inner lining 140 is less worn when the difference is large, and that the inner lining 140 is more worn when the difference is small.

[0050] (3) can be by actively adjusting the air pressure in each of the air tire 120, so that the bushing 110 axis and the axis of the propeller shaft is approximately parallel, to ensure that the propeller shaft on the tail bearing generated by the pressure stress evenly distributed, the tail bearing to adapt to the actual load, overall can be well improved the contact performance of the tail bearing, in addition, the wear of each of the bushing 110 can be detected, when the inner liner 140 appears wear, can be timely to the inner liner 140 replacement, to ensure the normal work of the tail bearing.

The control unit calculates the maximum threshold difference. The control unit collects and determines the air pressure data inside each of the pneumatic tires in real time. The control unit controls the corresponding vent valve to release air, thereby reducing the air pressure in the pneumatic tire near the propeller end. Reduce to The control unit controls the corresponding air intake valve to intake air, thereby increasing the air pressure in the pneumatic tire located away from the propeller end. Increase to This is to ensure that the axis of the liner is approximately parallel to the axis of the propeller shaft, and the stress difference generated at the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is equal to zero; when the air pressure in the pneumatic tube near the propeller end... equal When the stress difference between the front and rear ends of the propeller shaft at the tail bearing is greater than zero, the liner shows wear; the control unit calculates the threshold air pressure that should be reached inside each of the pneumatic tires when the liner is in a state of inter-range wear. The control unit calculates the interval threshold difference. The control unit calculates and The difference is such that when the difference is large, the lining wears less, and when the difference is small, the lining wears more.
