[0002] The rotary vane steering gear is a common type of marine steering gear. The basic working principle is to use pressurized oil in the swing cylinder to push the rotary vane to swing, thereby driving the rudder to rotate. The rotary vane steering gear body usually includes: cylinder body, cylinder head, rotor, stator blades and other structures. The cylinder head is fixed on the top of the cylinder body, and the rotor, stator blades and other structures are arranged inside the cylinder body. The entire cylinder body is designed with an open top and a closed bottom. Therefore, under this cylinder structure, if there is a problem with the bottom components of the cylinder body, it is more difficult to repair the components at the bottom of the cylinder body without dismantling the entire steering gear.

[0014] This embodiment proposes a rotary vane steering gear cylinder structure, and its structure is as follows: Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes an upper cylinder head 1, a cylinder body 2 and a lower cylinder head 3. The upper cylinder head 1 is arranged at the upper end of the cylinder body 2, and the lower cylinder head 3 is arranged at the lower end of the cylinder body 2. The diameters of the upper cylinder head 1 and the lower cylinder head 3 are consistent, and the outer diameter of the cylinder body 2 is also consistent with the diameter of the lower cylinder head 3. Common components of a rotary vane steering gear such as a rotor and stationary blades are arranged inside the cylinder body 2. Since they do not involve the innovative part of the present application, they are not described in detail. The rotor is rotatably connected to the rudder stock deep in the cylinder body 2 and is arranged in the cylinder body 2. The stationary blades are connected to the inside of the cylinder body 2 by bolts and pins. The limit position of the rotary vane steering gear can be limited by the rotor and the stationary blades, and the lower seal and bearing of the original cylinder body are all cancelled and replaced by the lower cylinder head 3 in this application. Therefore, when there is a problem at the bottom of the cylinder body, the staff can directly remove the lower cylinder head 3 for maintenance, or directly replace it.

[0015] At the same time, the cylinder 2 is changed from the original bottom sealing type containing the lower bushing and thrust bearing to a simple cylindrical shape, and both the upper and lower ends are open designs, which greatly reduces the difficulty of casting and processing, and can effectively reduce the overall production cost of the steering gear.

[0016] A mounting surface 7 is fixedly connected to the side wall in the middle of the cylinder body 2, and a plurality of fixing holes 8 are provided on the side wall of the mounting surface 7. The mounting surface 7 between the entire steering gear and the shipyard is improved from the cylinder body ground plane to the middle of the cylinder body 2, which provides a larger space for maintenance and makes it more convenient for the staff to disassemble and assemble the lower cylinder head 3.

[0017] A bushing 4 is installed on the top wall of the upper cylinder cover 1, and a thrust bearing 5 is rotatably connected inside the bushing 4. A plane bearing 6 is arranged between the lower cylinder cover 3 and the cylinder body 2. The bushing 4 and the plane bearing 6 respectively support and resist wear for the upper cylinder cover 1 and the lower cylinder cover 3. At the same time, the thrust bearing 5 can resist the axial movement of the rudder rod that passes through the upper cylinder cover 1 and penetrates into the cylinder body 2, thereby ensuring the smooth operation of the entire servo.

[0018] A temporary storage component for maintaining the position of the lower cylinder head 3 is provided between the side wall of the cylinder body 2 and the lower cylinder head 3. The temporary storage component includes a disc 9 and two support rods 10. The disc 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the lower cylinder head 3. The diameter of the disc 9 is larger than the diameter of the lower cylinder head 3. Two through grooves 11 are provided on the side wall of the disc 9. The two support rods 10 are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the cylinder body 2. The angle between the two through grooves 11 is 180°, and the angle between the two support rods 10 is also 180°. Since the two support rods 10 need to correspond to the positions of the two through grooves 11, the angles between the two need to be consistent.

[0019] The longitudinal section of the support rod 10 is "U"-shaped, and the opening direction of the support rod 10 is facing the cylinder body 2. The side wall of the support rod 10 away from the cylinder body 2 is slidably connected to the bottom wall of the disc 9. The width of the support rod 10 is consistent with the width of the through slot 11. A groove 12 is provided on the side wall of the support rod 10 away from the cylinder body 2. A number of rollers 13 are rotatably connected in the groove 12, and each roller 13 is in contact with the bottom wall of the disc 9 respectively. When the lower cylinder cover 3 needs to be removed, all the fixing screws are first removed. Under the lifting action of the support rod 10, the lower cylinder cover 3 will not fall directly. The staff can rotate the disc 9 and the lower cylinder cover 3 until the support rod 10 moves to the position of the through slot 11, and then the disc 9 will fall together with the lower cylinder cover 3, making the disassembly and assembly work of the staff safer.

[0020] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention may also have other implementation modes. Any technical solution formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the protection scope required by the present invention.
