Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of machining of turbine guide blades of aircraft engines, and in particular, to a device for machining weight-reducing grooves of turbine guide blades. In addition, the present application also relates to a machining method using the device for machining weight-reducing grooves of turbine guide blades. 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] The guide vanes of aircraft engine turbines are important parts of the combustion chamber. They are generally made of cast blanks. Most blades have weight-reducing grooves, which generally adopt a conformal structure. Please refer to the attached manual for details. Figure 2 As shown. At present, there are three processing methods for weight reduction grooves: casting, mechanical cutting, and special processing. The casting process frequently causes problems such as fluorescence loosening due to the thin wall thickness of the blade, which makes it impossible to cast. The mechanical cutting process is limited by the cutting tool structure due to the conformal structure of the weight reduction groove, and it is impossible to manufacture a suitable tool. Therefore, in general, the turbine guide blade weight reduction groove is processed by forming electrode electrospark machining.

[0004] The current special processing technology has designed a special forming electrode for processing. However, due to the large number of blades, the thickness of the weight-reducing groove is very large, resulting in repeated clamping of parts and repeated alignment of electrodes. At the same time, the forming electrode is difficult to manufacture and the electrode cannot be repaired, which makes it difficult to reuse the tool electrode. The above factors have caused the weight-reducing groove processing efficiency to be low and the processing cost to be very high, which is not conducive to the large-scale production of turbine guide blades.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0048] Here, the meaning of "outer edge plate pressing block 10 and inner edge plate pressing block 11" refers to the structure for respectively pressing and limiting the outer edge plate and inner edge plate of the blade 7. In some embodiments, the outer edge plate pressing block 10 is a block structure connected to the clamp base 9 by bolts, and a ball head positioning rod is provided on the outer edge plate pressing block 10, and the outer edge plate of the blade 7 is limited by the ball head positioning rod; the inner edge plate pressing block 11 is a block structure connected to the clamp base 9 by bolts, and a limiting boss is provided on the inner edge plate pressing block 11, and the inner edge plate of the blade 7 is limited by the limiting boss.

The handle 13 is set on the side wall of the rotating rod 14. The first end of the push rod 16 is connected to the rotating rod 14, and the second end of the push rod 16 is connected to the outer circle positioning member 8. The handle 13 is used to drive the rotating rod 14 to rotate around the connecting rod 15, and then push the push rod 16 to drive the outer circle positioning member 8 to rise and fall along the limit rod 12.

[0051] It can be understood that the connecting rod 15 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the clamp base 9, and the two ends of the connecting rod 15 are respectively connected to the rotating rod 14, and the rotating rods 14 on both sides can be rotated synchronously through the connecting rod 15, thereby driving the outer circle positioning member 8 to be stably lifted and lowered along the limit rod 12. The handles 13 on both sides can facilitate the workers to drive the rotating rods 14 on both sides to rotate at the same time, and then the outer circle positioning member 8 is pushed to be lifted and lowered through the push rods 16 on both sides, ensuring the force balance during the lifting process of the outer circle positioning member 8, so that the outer circle positioning member 8 can be lifted and lowered more smoothly, so that the blade 7 can be clamped, and the deviation of the outer circle positioning member 8 can be reduced, thereby ensuring the positioning function of the outer circle positioning member 8.
