Description

[0002] When the vibrating machinery is running, the gas connectors are subjected to complex high-frequency reciprocating torsional vibrations and violent lateral vibrations. These vibrations gradually destroy the pre-tightening state of the threads and cause the bolts to loosen. Therefore, faults such as loose locking bolts and air leakage often occur. The task of solving this defect is very urgent.

[0003] In order to solve the problem of loose bolts and nuts, many improvements have been made in design and process over the years, but none of them have been able to fundamentally solve the problem of loose bolts and nuts. These include using fine threads, increasing the tightening torque of nuts, applying anti-loosening glue, adding washers, etc. Some methods have also brought new problems of difficulty in disassembly.

[0004] Under dynamic load conditions such as impact, vibration and temperature changes, the friction between threads alone cannot reliably prevent bolts from loosening. Even if the bolts are not loose, the deformation of the sealing position of the parts due to vibration and temperature changes will cause seal failure.

[0038] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a high temperature vibration locking device, comprising:

[0039] Vibrating member 1;

[0040] A flange connection member 2, the flange connection member 2 is arranged on one side of the vibrating member 1, and the four corner edges of the flange connection member 2 are all recessed inwards to form a plurality of mounting grooves 21;

[0041] The sleeve 3 is multiple in number and is detachably arranged on the multiple mounting grooves 21, and the interior of the sleeve 3 is hollow;

[0042] The fasteners penetrate into the sleeve 3 and are fixedly connected to the vibrating member 1 , wherein an interlocking pad 5 is connected between two adjacent fasteners and the corresponding sleeves 3 , and the interlocking pad 5 is used to lock one side surface of the fasteners.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the sleeve 3 and the flange connector 2 are arranged to be detachably connected to improve the flexibility of the overall device. The internal structure of the sleeve 3 effectively absorbs the deformation of the connection component caused by vibration and uneven heating of parts. The sleeve 3, the flange connector 2 and the vibrating member 1 are fixedly connected by fasteners. The interlocking pad 5 and the fastener are mutually restrained to prevent the rotation of the thread caused by vibration, thereby effectively limiting the loosening of the fastener.

[0044] The present application solves the problem of fastener loosening through the vibration locking device. The device changes the fastening connection mode of single thread pre-tightening, so that the connecting parts can prevent the bolts from loosening and the sealing parts from failing in an environment of vibration and alternating working temperature, thereby achieving higher reliability.

[0045] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the sleeve 3 is composed of two cavities with different inner diameters, and a transition section is provided between the two cavities with different inner diameters. The end of the sleeve 3 with a smaller inner diameter is provided in the mounting groove 21;

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, the fastener is a hexagonal fastening bolt 4 , the screw portion of the fastening bolt 4 penetrates into the cavity and is threadedly connected to the vibrator 1 .

[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, the hexagonal fastening bolt 4 passes through the interlocking gasket 5, the sleeve 3, the flange connection part 2, and the protruding gasket 6, and is then fastened to the vibrating part 1 with a thread. The inner side of the sleeve 3 is composed of two cavities with different inner diameters, and the two cavities with different inner diameters are connected by a transition with a certain cone angle β. One end of the small inner diameter cavity of the sleeve 3 is in contact with the interlocking ring 51 of the interlocking gasket 5, and one end of the large diameter cavity of the sleeve 3 is in contact with the sleeve 3 mounting surface of the flange connection part 2.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the interlocking pad 5 includes two interlocking rings 51 and connecting ribs 52 connected to the two interlocking rings 51 . The two interlocking rings 51 are bent outward to form a folded edge 53 . The folded edge 53 is attached to one side outer wall of the head of the fastening bolt 4 .

[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, the interlocking pad 5 has a bendable folded edge 53 at the position where the hexagonal fastening bolt 4 is installed, and the protruding folded edge 53 of the interlocking pad 5 and one side of the head of the hexagonal fastening bolt 4 are locked with each other, and the other hexagonal fastening bolt 4 connected to the interlocking pad 5 is restrained to prevent the hexagonal fastening bolt 4 from rotating. Thus, the fastening bolt 4 is prevented from loosening.

[0050] In some embodiments, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a protruding pad 6 is arranged between the flange connecting member 2 and the vibrating member 1, a through hole 61 is opened at the central position of the protruding pad 6, a protruding rib is formed around the through hole 61 on one side of the protruding pad 6 close to the vibrating member 1, and through holes 63 for fastening bolts 4 to pass through are opened at the four corner edge positions of the protruding pad 6.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, one side of the protruding pad 6 is flat, and the other side has a protruding rib, wherein the flat side of the protruding pad 6 is in contact with the flange connector 2 , and the side with the protruding rib is in contact with the vibration member 1 .

[0052] The protruding rib side of the protruding pad 6 absorbs the gap caused by the different deformation of the connecting parts of the flange connecting member 2 and the vibrating member 1 due to vibration and thermal deformation, thereby realizing reliable sealing of the liquid or gas in the pipeline.

[0053] In some embodiments, the fastening bolt 4, the interlocking washer 5, and the sleeve 3 are made of the same metal material;

[0054] The flange connector 2 , the protruding pad 6 and the vibrating member 1 are made of the same metal material or metal materials with similar properties.

[0055] In some embodiments, the radial dimension correlation function between the sleeve 3 and the fastening bolt 4 is:

[0056]

[0057] In the formula, δ a Indicates the tensile strength of the fastening bolt 4; σ c Indicates the tensile strength of the casing 3; D a Indicates the diameter of the fastening bolt; D b Indicates the inner diameter of the casing 3 (the larger inner diameter of the casing); D c Indicates the outer diameter of the casing 3;

[0058] The axial dimension correlation function between the sleeve 3 and the fastening bolt 4 is:

[0059] δ a (L a -L0)Δt=1.05[δ c L b (Δt-50)+δ c L c (Δt-100)] (2)

[0060] In the formula, δ a Indicates the thermal expansion coefficient of the fastening bolt; δ c Indicates the thermal expansion coefficient of the casing; L a Indicates the bolt length; L0 indicates the length of the bolt screwed into the vibrating part; L b Indicates the cavity length corresponding to the smaller inner diameter in the casing; L c Indicates the cavity length corresponding to the larger inner diameter of the casing.

[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, by constructing a radial dimension correlation function between the sleeve 3 and the fastening bolt 4 and an axial dimension correlation function between the sleeve 3 and the fastening bolt 4, the relationship between the sleeve 3 and the fastening bolt 4 is established. According to the bolt diameter and the use environment, sleeves 3 with different inner diameters are selected to ensure strength and a certain elastic absorption capacity when bearing the working load; by adding an interlocking pad 5 at the contact position between the bolt head and the sleeve 3, an elastic absorption effect can be provided. During vibration or thermal expansion, the compression and resilience of the interlocking pad 5 can effectively absorb the axial displacement and reduce the stress on the bolt and the connecting part.
