Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of equipment repair and remanufacturing, and in particular to a fixture for laser repair of fan blades. Background Art
[0002] As a key power supply equipment in the steel, petroleum, chemical and other industries, fans are widely used in these industrial fields. In particular, the moving blades on the rotor of axial flow fans are in a high temperature and high pressure environment for a long time, and are easily eroded by dust and corrosive media. For example, in steel enterprises, heavy metal dust and sand dust will cause serious erosion on the blade surface; in petrochemical enterprises, the corrosion of gases such as chlorine and sulfur will cause the surface material of the blade to gradually lose. These factors work together to gradually thin the curved area of the fan blades at the root of the air inlet side and the top of the exhaust side, and even form a blade shape or notch. When these notches expand to a certain extent, the moving blades will find it difficult to withstand the huge shear force (more than 10 tons) applied during high-speed rotation, resulting in fatigue fracture. This will not only cause damage to the blades, but may also cause failure of the entire unit, forcing the company to replace the rotor and moving blades, which is costly and has a long maintenance cycle, seriously affecting the normal production of the company.
[0003] In order to extend the service life of wind turbine blades and reduce maintenance costs, laser cladding technology is widely used to repair damaged blades, especially their complex curved surface areas. Laser cladding technology adds cladding material to the surface of the substrate and uses a high-energy laser beam to melt it with the substrate surface to form a metallurgically bonded cladding layer. This method can significantly improve the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the blade surface, especially the curved surface, while maintaining a high repair accuracy. However, the curved surface structure of the moving blade is complex, and the existing repair equipment cannot accurately control the vibration when processing at multiple angles and multiple positions, which will have an adverse effect on the repair accuracy.
[0004] In the prior art, although the patent with publication number CN215947408U proposes an improved aircraft engine part surface repair device, its clamp design can only fix the blade from one end, and the other end lacks sufficient support, which causes the blade to be easily displaced due to gravity or vibration during the repair process. Especially when repairing complex curved surfaces, it is difficult to ensure the repair accuracy. Summary of the invention
