[0016] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0017] The steam turbine according to the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 As shown, the steam turbine according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a casing 1, a rotor 2 and a capture device.

[0018] The housing 1 has a first cavity, which is divided into an outlet cavity and a steam inlet cavity 4 in a first direction. A nozzle 5 is provided on the side of the outlet cavity facing away from the steam inlet cavity 4 in the first direction, and the steam inlet cavity 4 has a steam inlet. The rotor 2 is rotatably arranged in the first cavity of the housing 1, and the rotor 2 extends along the first direction. The rotor 2 is provided with a plurality of blades 3 in the first direction, and the plurality of blades 3 are arranged in the steam inlet cavity 4. Thus, steam can be passed into the steam inlet cavity 4 and drive the blades 3 and the rotor 2 to rotate so as to generate electricity, and the steam can be discharged from the nozzle 5 of the outlet cavity. For example, the plurality of blades 3 are arranged on the rotor 2 at equal distances.

[0019] The capture device includes a vacuum cleaner 7, an endoscope probe 8 and a capture tube 11. The vacuum hose 9 of the vacuum cleaner 7 is passed into the capture tube 11, and the endoscope hose 10 of the endoscope probe 8 is passed into the capture tube 11. The capture tube 11 is detachably arranged on the housing 1 and extends into the first cavity. Thus, the vacuum hose 9 of the vacuum cleaner 7 and the endoscope hose 10 of the endoscope probe 8 can be extended into the first cavity of the housing 1 through the capture tube 11. Thus, the first cavity can be detected through the endoscope hose 10 of the capture device, and when there are foreign objects in the first cavity, the foreign objects can be directly adsorbed through the vacuum hose 9 of the vacuum cleaner 7.

[0020] In some embodiments, a positioning ring 12 is provided on the outer side of the capture tube 11, and the positioning ring 12 abuts against the outer surface of the housing 1. Specifically, the housing 1 has a capture hole, and the capture tube 11 can be removably inserted into the capture hole. The outer diameter of the positioning ring 12 is larger than the diameter of the capture hole, so that the capture tube 11 can be positioned. The capture hole is adjacent to the nozzle 5 in the first direction, so that the steam in the first cavity has less influence on the capture tube 11.

[0021] In some embodiments, the housing 1 includes a plurality of sub-housings, which are detachably connected to each other. Thus, when there are impurities in the plurality of blades 3, corresponding parts of the plurality of sub-housings can be disassembled so that the capture tube 11 can find and absorb the impurities.

[0022] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of at least part of the steam inlet chamber 4 increases in the first direction away from the outlet chamber. The inner diameter of the part of the steam inlet chamber 4 adjacent to the outlet chamber increases in the first direction away from the outlet chamber. The outer diameter of at least part of the plurality of blades 3 increases in the first direction away from the outlet chamber. Thus, when the steam moves in the first direction in the direction adjacent to the outlet chamber, the inner diameter of the steam inlet chamber 4 decreases, so that the steam can drive the blades 3 to rotate.

[0023] In some embodiments, the housing 1 is provided with a pressure gauge 6, which is used to detect the steam pressure in the steam inlet cavity 4. Specifically, the pressure gauge 6 is adjacent to the outlet cavity in the first direction, so that it can be determined whether there are impurities in the first cavity by the steam pressure.

[0024] The capture device of the steam turbine according to the embodiment of the present invention can allow the dust hose 9 of the vacuum cleaner 7 and the endoscope hose 10 of the endoscope detector 8 to extend into the first cavity of the outer shell 1 through the capture tube 11. When the debris in the steam inlet cavity 4 is detected, the vacuum cleaner 7 starts to work, ensuring that the first cavity remains clean, ensuring the smooth operation of the steam turbine, and extending the service life of the steam turbine.

[0025] Therefore, the steam turbine according to the embodiment of the present invention has the advantages of smooth operation and long service life.
