Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aircraft engine assembly, and in particular, to an aircraft engine rotor hoisting device. In addition, the present application also relates to a hoisting method using the aircraft engine rotor hoisting device. Background Art
[0002] The information provided in this section is for the purpose of generally presenting the background of the present application. To the extent described in this section, the work of the presently named inventors and aspects of the description that may not constitute prior art at the time of filing are neither explicitly nor implicitly admitted to be prior art to the present application.
[0003] In the field of aircraft engine assembly technology, a certain type of aircraft engine gas turbine rotor cannot be grasped by hand or hoisted by a hoist due to its structural characteristics and the unit assembly space structure limitation. A certain type of rotor assembly consists of turbine discs, front baffles, rear baffles, rotor blades and other components. The structure is shown in the attached manual. Figure 1 The assembly position of the gas turbine rotor assembly in the unit body is shown in the attached manual. Figure 2 As shown, the gas turbine rotor is inserted into the gas turbine stator assembly through a center tie rod, there is a certain gap (0.6-0.8 mm) between the gas turbine blades and the gas turbine stator assembly, and the gap between the inner hole of the turbine disk and the center tie rod is 9-11 mm.
[0004] At present, the gap between blades is used to design the rotor suspension, as shown in the attached manual. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the hook passes through the blade and hooks the back of the blade. Soft rubber is bonded to the hook to prevent the blade from being scratched. In actual operation, due to the small gap between the working blades, it is difficult to pass the hook through the blade. After the first and second stage rotor assemblies of the gas turbine are hoisted into the unit body, it is difficult to disassemble the hook from the middle of the working blade due to limited operating space.

[0048] The claws 1 are arranged in an annular array on the outer ring of the limiting ring 2. The claws 1 are used to engage with the gas turbine rotor assembly.

The limiting platform is used to limit the top of the cover plate 5. A plurality of mounting screw holes are provided in an annular array on the mounting plate 3. The mounting screw holes are used to set locking members 6 and pass through the mounting plate 3 and the cover plate 5 in sequence to connect and tighten the two, thereby pressing the top of the claws 1 to limit the middle of the mounting plate 3 and the cover plate 5.
[0049] A plurality of lifting screw holes are provided in a circular array on the mounting plate 3. The lifting eye screw 7 comprises a lifting eye and a threaded column. The threaded column is used to cooperate with the thread of the lifting screw hole. The lifting eye is used to connect with the hanging assembly 8. The hanging assembly 8 is used to connect with the crane.
[0050] Here, the “locking member 6” means a structure for connecting and fastening the mounting plate 3 and the cover plate 5. In some embodiments, the locking member 6 is a hexagonal bolt or a screw.
[0051] The aircraft engine rotor lifting device of the present application limits the claws 1 arranged in a ring array by a limiting ring 2, and at the same time connects and limits the claws 1 by a mounting plate 3 and a cover plate 5, and the mounting plate 3 and the cover plate 5 are both movably mounted on the outer ring of the limiting ring 2, so the mounting plate 3, the claws 1 and the cover plate 5 can be taken out and disassembled together, which is convenient for the overall assembly of the lifting device and also convenient for the disassembly of the lifting device after the lifting is completed; at the same time, after the claws 1 are adjusted to a position to engage with the gas turbine rotor assembly, the limiting ring 2 can be inserted into the mounting plate 3 and the cover plate 5 to limit the claws 1, thereby ensuring that the claws 1 are firmly connected during lifting, and ensuring the safety and stability of the gas turbine rotor assembly lifting process.
[0052] Preferably, please refer to Figure 4 and 6 As shown, the aircraft engine rotor lifting device also includes a positioning member 4, a lap platform is arranged on the top of the claw 1, the lap platform is used to overlap the top of the mounting plate 3, a first connecting through hole is opened on the lap platform, the connecting through hole is used to correspond to the second connecting through hole preset on the mounting plate 3, the positioning member 4 is used to pass through the first connecting through hole and the second connecting through hole in sequence to position the mounting plate 3 and the claw 1; a clamping portion is arranged at the bottom of the claw 1, and the clamping portion is used to hook the preset mounting edge of the inner hole at the rear end of the turbine disk.
[0053] It can be understood that the claw 1 is overlapped on the top of the mounting plate 3 through the overlap platform on its top, and the overlap platform and the mounting plate 3 are limited by the positioning piece 4. Then, the cover plate 5 can be pressed on the top of the mounting plate 3, and the cover plate 5 can be connected to the mounting plate 3 with the locking piece 6, so as to limit the overlap platform longitudinally, and cooperate with the positioning piece 4 to limit the overlap platform horizontally, so as to realize the stable installation of the claw 1 and prevent the claw 1 from falling off the mounting plate 3.
[0054] The positioning member 4 can be a cylindrical pin.
[0055] Preferably, please refer to Figure 7 As shown, the first connecting through hole is a through hole with a strip-shaped cross section, and the second connecting through hole is a circular hole structure.
[0056] It can be understood that a strip-shaped through hole is provided on the overlapping platform at the top of the claw 1, so that the claw 1 can be fine-tuned horizontally, which is convenient for adjusting the position of the claw 1 to engage with the gas turbine rotor assembly. Subsequently, the claw can be laterally limited by the limiting ring 2 to ensure the clamping stability of the claw 1.
[0057] Preferably, please refer to Figure 4 and 8 As shown, a circle of supporting bosses is provided at the bottom of the limiting ring 2 , and the supporting bosses are used to limit the bottom of the claw 1 so that the bottom of the claw 1 deviates outward along the radial direction of the limiting ring 2 .
[0058] It can be understood that the supporting boss at the bottom of the limit ring 2 can push the claw 1 to the outside of the limit ring 2, ensuring that the clamping part at the bottom of the claw 1 is firmly engaged with the gas turbine rotor assembly, thereby improving the stability during the lifting process. Since the claw 1 hooks the installation edge of the gas turbine rotor assembly from the middle of the gas turbine rotor assembly along the four sides, and at the same time cooperates with the limit ring 2 to limit the claw 1, it is ensured that the claw 1 will not retract inward, thereby achieving a very stable clamping fit and ensuring the safety of lifting.
[0059] Preferably, please refer to Figure 10-14 As shown, the hanging assembly 8 includes a mounting plate 81, a limiting assembly, a connecting ball 85, a limiting plate 811, a connecting column 89 and a connecting rod 810. A plurality of limiting cavities 812 are provided in a circular array in the mounting plate 81. Through holes are provided at the top and bottom of the limiting cavity 812. A limiting plate 811 is movably provided in each limiting cavity 812. The bottom of the limiting plate 811 is connected to the connecting rod 810.

A first compression spring 86 is provided between each connecting ball 85. A connecting column 89 is provided at the top of the mounting plate 81. The connecting column 89 is used to be connected to a crane.
[0060] It can be understood that the hanging assembly 8 can cooperate with the lifting eye screws 7 to lift the lifting device and the gas turbine rotor assembly. Since there are multiple lifting eye screws 7 distributed at intervals, in order to reduce the unstable lifting due to unbalanced force and shaking during movement during the lifting process, which affects the lifting speed, multiple movable limit plates 811 are arranged inside the mounting plate 81, and connecting balls 85 that can be rotated at will are installed on the limit plates 811 through the limit assembly. A first compression spring 86 is arranged between each connecting ball 85. The first compression spring 86 can buffer and pull each limit plate 811 and the connecting rod 810 to maintain balance, which can reduce the amplitude of shaking during lifting, avoid uncontrollable impact during lifting, improve the safety and stability of the lifting of the gas turbine rotor assembly, and effectively ensure the lifting efficiency.
[0061] Preferably, please refer to Fig.10 As shown, the hanging assembly 8 also includes a mounting ring 82 and a connecting ring 88. The mounting ring 82 is arranged on the mounting plate 81 and each connecting ball 85 is located in the mounting ring 82.

Each connecting ring 88 is arranged one by one with each connecting ball 85, and a second compression spring 87 is arranged between adjacent connecting rings 88 and connecting balls 85.
[0062] It can be understood that in order to enhance the overall stability of each connecting ball 85, the limiting plate 811 and the connecting rod 810 and reduce the displacement amplitude of the shaking, each connecting ball 85 is connected to each connecting ring 88 through a second compression spring 87, and the connecting ring 88 is limited by the mounting ring 82, which can achieve multi-directional buffering and limiting of the connecting ball 85, which is beneficial to improving the overall seismic resistance of the suspension assembly 8 and facilitating the fine control of the lifting speed.
[0063] Preferably, please refer to Fig.10 As shown, a plurality of limiting countersunk holes are provided in a circular array on the mounting plate 81, and a plurality of limiting columns 821 are provided in a circular array at the bottom of the mounting ring 82. Each limiting column 821 is used to cooperate with each limiting countersunk hole, and a connecting platform is provided on the limiting column 821. A first connecting screw hole is provided on the connecting platform. The connecting screw hole is used to set a locking screw and cooperate the connecting platform with a preset second connecting screw hole on the mounting plate 81 through the locking screw, so as to connect and fasten the connecting platform to the mounting plate 81.
[0064] It can be understood that the limiting column 821 not only plays the role of installing the mounting ring 82, but also can be easily removed from the mounting plate 81 by removing the locking screw to complete the removal of the mounting ring 82; the limiting column 821 also plays a limiting role on the connecting ring 88, thereby preventing the connecting ring 88 from sliding too much along the mounting ring 82, thereby ensuring the limiting effect of the connecting ring 88 on the connecting ball 85.
[0065] Preferably, please refer to Fig.12 As shown, the limiting component includes a first limiting member 83 and a second limiting member 84. The second limiting member 84 is arranged on the limiting plate 811. A hemispherical groove is opened on the top of the second limiting member 84. The hemispherical groove is used to place the connecting ball 85. The first limiting member 83 is arranged on the second limiting member 84. The first limiting member 83 is used to limit the connecting ball 85.
[0066] It can be understood that the connecting ball 85 is limited by the hemispherical groove at the top of the second limiting member 84. The connecting ball 85 can roll in the hemispherical groove, and at the same time cooperate with the first limiting member 83 to limit the top of the connecting ball 85, which can ensure that the connecting ball 85 does not fall off without interfering with the movement of the connecting ball 85.
[0067] Optionally, a groove for limiting the connecting ball 85 is opened at the bottom of the first limiting member 83, which can strengthen the limiting of the connecting ball 85 and ensure its smooth rolling; a plurality of limiting rods are arranged at the bottom of the first limiting member 83, and the limiting rods are connected to the second limiting member 84 by bolts, which can facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the first limiting member 83.
[0068] Preferably, please refer to Fig.11 and 13 As shown, a first limiting hole 813 is formed at the top of the limiting cavity 812, and the first limiting hole 813 is used to limit the second limiting member 84. A second limiting hole 814 is formed at the bottom of the limiting cavity 812, and the second limiting hole 814 is used to limit the connecting rod 810.
[0069] It can be understood that the limit plate 811 can slide in the limit cavity 812, and at the same time, the first limit hole 813 at the top of the limit cavity 812 can limit the second limit member 84, and the second limit hole 814 at the bottom of the limit cavity 812 can limit the connecting rod 810, so as to avoid excessive movement of the limit plate 811 and cause the overall shaking of the hanging assembly 8, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the lifting process.
[0070] The present application also discloses a method for hoisting an aircraft engine rotor, which uses the above-mentioned aircraft engine rotor hoisting device and includes the following steps:

[0076] The aircraft engine rotor hoisting method of the present application also has the above-mentioned beneficial effects. At the same time, the hoisting method of the present application is very convenient to operate, and there is no need to conduct complicated teaching to the workers. The gas turbine rotor assembly can be smoothly hoisted through simple steps. It is only necessary to first extend the claw 1 into the inner hole of the gas turbine disk to hook the installation edge of the inner hole of the turbine disk, and then pass the limit ring 2 through the cover plate 5 and the mounting plate 3 in sequence to limit the claw 1 to prevent the claw 1 from radially offset and loosening.
