[0021] In this embodiment: the height of the threaded guide sleeve is adjusted by a ratchet wrench to determine the height of the crossbeam. The crossbeam is connected to the upper half of the outer cylinder of the marine steam turbine for lifting. After the upper half of the outer cylinder of the marine steam turbine is lifted, the inner cylinder bracket is used to connect the upper half of the outer cylinder of the marine steam turbine and the upper half of the inner cylinder of the marine steam turbine to complete the lifting of the upper half of the inner cylinder of the marine steam turbine.

[0027] In this embodiment, the guide post is used to pass through the positioning hole in the upper half of the outer cylinder of the marine steam turbine and then be fixed to the lower half of the outer cylinder of the marine steam turbine. The guide post ensures that the outer cylinder moves up and down along the guide post, acting as a guide. The guide post passes through the positioning hole in the upper half of the outer cylinder and is screwed into the threaded hole in the lower half of the outer cylinder and tightened.

[0037] Other implementations are the same as the first specific implementation.
[0038] Working process:
[0039] When the rotating equipment needs to open the cylinder, first pass the guide post through the positioning hole in the upper half of the outer cylinder and screw it into the threaded hole in the lower half of the outer cylinder and tighten it. The guide post ensures that the outer cylinder moves up and down along the guide post, acting as a guide. Then, install and connect the four threaded guide posts with scales to the corresponding positions of the lower half of the equipment outer cylinder body with bolts. Then, install the threaded guide sleeves and crossbeams on the threaded guide posts in sequence. Then, use four sets of ratchet wrenches to adjust the threaded guide sleeves to the height that can connect the outer cylinder bracket with the outer cylinder interface. Then, insert the key, tighten the bolts, and simultaneously turn the four sets of ratchet wrenches clockwise to lift the outer cylinder. Then rotate the ratchet wrenches to the desired height. After the height is reached, connect the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder through the inner cylinder bracket. Simultaneously turn the four ratchet wrenches clockwise to lift the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder upper half. After reaching a certain height, install the support post between the lower and upper halves of the outer cylinder body and secure them with bolts to support the inner and outer cylinder upper halves.
[0040] When the rotor needs to be lifted, the rotor hanger and other related components can be fixed to the beam interface, and then the lower half ring of the rotor hanger can be removed and installed on the lower half of the rotor. The four ratchet wrenches are synchronously rotated counterclockwise to lower the rotor hanger to the corresponding height, and the lower half ring of the rotor hanger is connected to the upper half ring with bolts. The four ratchet wrenches are synchronously rotated clockwise to lift the rotor to a corresponding height, so that the internal parts of the rotating equipment can be inspected and parts can be replaced.
