Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fuel engine overload protection, and in particular to a fuel engine protection method based on a safety pin. Background Art
[0002] Gas turbine overload, that is, the gas turbine is operated in a state exceeding its design or rated load, which will bring many hazards. For example, the pressure and temperature of each component will increase significantly, thereby accelerating the wear and aging of the parts and shortening their service life. Due to overload operation, the rotating parts may be damaged due to high temperature, overload and other factors, such as bearing wear, blade breakage, etc. Overload will also increase the axial thrust, causing the thrust pad temperature to rise, and in severe cases, the thrust pad may be burned. In addition, the gas turbine requires more fuel to generate the same power under overload conditions, which will lead to a decrease in combustion efficiency and fuel efficiency. Overload operation will also deteriorate the performance of the speed control system, such as an increase in the speed change rate and delay rate, thereby affecting the overall performance of the gas turbine. In addition, when the gas turbine is overloaded, the flue gas emissions will also increase accordingly, which will have an adverse impact on the environment.
[0003] In the prior art, gas turbines generally rely on data from various sensors to determine whether they are overloaded and decide whether to shut down based on this. However, there is uncertainty in relying solely on sensors for judgment, because if the instrument is damaged, the overload situation may not be detected in time, causing damage to the gas turbine. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a mechanical-based safety protection method to solve this problem. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fuel engine protection method based on a safety pin, wherein a safety pin is installed between a fuel engine main shaft and an actual output shaft, and when the fuel engine is overloaded, the safety pin is disconnected in time to protect the fuel engine.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the present application is: a combustion engine protection method based on a safety pin, comprising:
[0006] The safety pin is manufactured based on the critical torque of the combustion engine, and a connected hollow groove and a fastening groove are opened on the safety pin;
[0007] A blind hole is opened on the circumference of the main shaft of the gas turbine;
[0008] An assembly cavity is provided in the axial direction of the output shaft, and a through hole is provided in the circumference thereof;
[0009] Insert one end of the main shaft of the engine into the assembly cavity, and make the position of the through hole correspond to the position of the blind hole;
[0010] After the safety pin is placed in the blind hole and the through hole, the fastening screw passes through the fastening groove and is tightened on the main shaft of the engine;
[0011] During operation, if the engine is not overloaded, the safety pins on the circumference ensure the reliable connection between the engine main shaft and the output shaft; if the engine is overloaded, the safety pins will disconnect in time to protect the engine main shaft.
[0012] In one of the embodiments, within the critical torque range of the engine, the engine main shaft drives the output shaft to rotate via the safety pin, and the safety pin plays a role in transmitting torque.
[0013] In one of the embodiments, a sealing groove is also formed on the output shaft, the diameter of the sealing groove is larger than the diameter of the through hole and the two are connected.
[0014] In one of the embodiments, after the fastening screw passes through the fastening groove and is tightened on the main shaft of the combustion engine, the O-ring is installed in the sealing groove and is pressed by the sealing end cover.
[0015] In one of the embodiments, a sliding bearing is installed on the inner wall of the assembly cavity of the output shaft so as to form an integral structure with the output shaft.
[0016] In one of the embodiments, a reduced diameter groove is provided on the safety pin, and the safety pin is disconnected from the reduced diameter groove.
[0017] In one of the embodiments, a circle of diameter-expanding grooves is processed on the inner wall of the hollow groove, and the diameter-expanding groove is arranged opposite to the diameter-reducing groove.
[0018] In one embodiment, the reduced diameter groove is located in the gap between the main shaft and the output shaft of the combustion engine.
[0019] In one of the embodiments, the material and design size of the safety pin are selected according to the critical torque of the combustion engine.
[0020] In one embodiment, two safety pins are provided and symmetrically installed on the main shaft and output shaft of the engine.
[0021] The present invention adopts the above technical solution, and can achieve the following technical effects: The protection method of the present invention is realized by installing a safety pin between the main shaft of the engine and the actual output shaft. When the engine is overloaded, the safety pin can be quickly disconnected, thereby effectively protecting the main shaft of the engine. The structure involved in this method is not only simple and easy to manufacture, but also very convenient in installation and disassembly.
[0022] Within the maximum torque range that the engine can withstand, the safety pins arranged on the circumference ensure the reliable connection between the engine main shaft and the output shaft. In addition, a sliding bearing is arranged between the engine main shaft and the output shaft, so that when the safety pin is cut off, the two shafts can avoid damage due to friction.
