TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tooling, in particular to a special tool for a conical thin-walled pipe part and a use method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] A steam generator, also known as a steam heat source machine (commonly known as a boiler), is a mechanical device that uses the heat energy of fuel or other energy to heat water into hot water or steam. The steam generator is one of the core devices of a nuclear power plant. The conical thin-walled pipe part is an important component of the steam generator, and the inner cavity thereof is a "conical surface + elliptical surface", which is not easy to clamp. The outer diameter has a local groove, and the local wall is thin and prone to deformation during machining. The above factors all cause certain difficulties in machining. If the machining scheme is not appropriate, the performance of the part will not meet the requirements, and safety hazards will be caused. In summary, the cold machining of the conical thin-walled pipe part is also an important link to ensure the safety of the nuclear power plant, and must be given sufficient attention, otherwise nuclear safety hazards will be caused, which will pose a major threat to people's life and property safety.
