DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to make the technical solution of the present invention clearer, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 4 The present embodiment provides a thermal expansion gap adjustment structure, including: a stationary blade bearing cylinder 1, in which a first groove 11 and a second groove 12 are connected to each other; an annular member 2, including a main body 21 and a mounting shoulder 22 connected to each other, the main body 21 is detachably located in the first groove 11, and the main body 21 and the first sealing surface 111 of the first groove 11 are in conflict; an expansion piece 3 detachably connected to the mounting shoulder 22, the mounting shoulder 22 and the expansion piece 3 are both detachably located in the second groove 12, and the expansion piece 3 and the second sealing surface 121 of the second groove 12 are in conflict.

[0042] Specifically, the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 is used to carry the stationary blades 6 and is also used to form the first groove 11 and the second groove 12. The material of the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 can be ZG15Cr1Mo1V, etc.; the annular member 2 includes a main body 21 and a mounting shoulder 22 that are connected to each other. The material of the annular member 2 can be ZG15Cr1Mo1V, etc. Since the annular member 2 is detachably located in the first groove 11 and the second groove 12, it is convenient to replace the annular member 2 of different materials according to needs; the main body 21 is used to contact with the first sealing surface 111 of the first groove 11, which is convenient for playing the first sealing role and facilitating axial limitation of the annular member 2; the mounting shoulder 22 and the expansion piece 3 are both used to cooperate with the second groove 12, so as to facilitate radial limitation of the annular member 2 and prevent the annular member 2 from separating from the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 under the action of its gravity; the expansion piece 3 is also used to contact with the second sealing surface 121 of the second groove 12, so as to play the second sealing role, double sealing role, to ensure sealing The performance is good. Since the expansion piece 3 and the mounting shoulder 22 are detachably connected, it is convenient to replace the expansion piece 3 of different materials according to needs. Combined with the replaceable annular member 2, it is convenient to increase the adjustment diversity of the thermal expansion gap adjustment structure of the present embodiment, thereby facilitating the increase of the versatility of the thermal expansion gap adjustment structure of the present embodiment. When the temperature rises, the volume of the expansion piece 3 increases, which in turn drives the mounting shoulder 22 and the main body 21, so that the main body 21 moves toward the direction close to the moving blade 5, thereby reducing the gap 7 between the moving blade 5 and the main body 21. When the temperature decreases, the volume of the expansion piece 3 decreases, which in turn drives the mounting shoulder 22 and the main body 21, so that the main body 21 moves away from the moving blade 5, thereby increasing the gap 7 between the moving blade 5 and the main body 21, thereby facilitating the dynamic adjustment of the gap 7 by relying on thermal expansion to prevent the gap 7 from being too large or too small. The material of the expansion piece 3 can be aluminum alloy 2A70, high chromium steel 2Cr13, etc.

[0043] During operation, according to the required gap 7 after heating, the deformation of the ring 2 and the deformation of the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 are calculated in advance, and the deformation of the expansion piece 3 is obtained, so as to select the expansion piece 3 of suitable material. As shown in Table 1, the materials of the expansion piece 3 are aluminum alloy 2A70 and high chromium steel 2Cr13, and the materials of the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 and the ring 2 are both ZG15Cr1Mo1V, where θ represents temperature and α represents linear expansion coefficient. Taking the expansion piece 3 made of aluminum alloy 2A70 as an example, when the temperature range is 20℃-100℃, the expansion piece 3 expands by 19.7*10 on average relative to 20℃ for every 1℃ increase in temperature. -6 When the temperature range is 20℃-200℃, the expansion sheet 3 expands by 21.7*10 on average relative to 20℃ for every 1℃ increase in temperature. -6 , and so on; as shown in Table 2, the materials of the expansion sheet 3 are respectively aluminum alloy 2A70 and high chromium steel 2Cr13, and their expansion performance at different temperatures is tested, wherein T represents temperature, a represents radial deformation, when aluminum alloy 2A70 is used, at a temperature of 300°C, the maximum radial deformation a is 0.05mm, at a temperature of 400°C, the maximum radial deformation a is 0.07mm, when high chromium steel 2Cr13 is used, at a temperature of 300°C, the maximum radial deformation a is 0.01mm, at a temperature of 400°C, the maximum radial deformation a is 0.015mm, indicating that when the radial deformation demand is large, the material of the expansion sheet 3 can be selected from aluminum alloy 2A70, and when the radial deformation demand is small, the material of the expansion sheet 3 can be selected from high chromium steel 2Cr13.

[0047]

[0048] Further, such as Figure 2-Figure 4 The annular member 2 further includes an inner groove 23 disposed in the main body 21 , and the inner groove 23 is connected to the first groove 11 .

[0049] Specifically, the inner groove 23 facilitates the annular member 2 to expand and deform, such as Figure 5 The shape of the inner groove 23 can be symmetrical, so that the deformation of the bottom surface of the ring member 2 is relatively uniform. Figure 6 The shape of the inner groove 23 can also be asymmetric, so that the deformation of the bottom surface of the ring member 2 is uneven, and the deformation of the bottom surface of the ring member 2 corresponding to the side with a larger area of ​​the inner groove 23 is greater, so that the inner groove 23 of different shapes can be set according to needs.

[0050] Further, such as Figure 4The annular member 2 further includes an outer groove 24 disposed outside the main body 21 , and the outer groove 24 and the expansion sheet 3 are disposed opposite to each other.

[0051] Specifically, an axial wall is formed between the outer groove 24 and the inner groove 23, and the thickness of the axial wall can be changed by changing the shapes of the outer groove 24 and the inner groove 23, such as Figure 7-Figure 8 The thickness of the axial wall is 6.25 mm and 3.25 mm respectively, as shown in Table 3, which indicates that the greater the thickness of the axial wall, the shorter the time it takes for the ring 2 to reach a steady state. This means that when the thickness of the axial wall is larger, it is suitable for a working environment with rapid temperature rise, and when the thickness of the axial wall is smaller, it is suitable for a working environment with constant high temperature, which makes it easy to select an axial wall of appropriate thickness according to demand.

[0052] Table 3

[0053]

[0054] Further, such as Figure 4 The annular member 2 further includes an abradable coating 25 connected to the main body 21 , and the abradable coating 25 is detachably located in the first groove 11 .

[0055] Specifically, the abradable coating 25 is used to absorb impact through wear of the abradable coating 25 when the moving blade 5 accidentally contacts the annular member 2, thereby reducing the wear of the moving blade 5. The material of the abradable coating 25 can be nickel-coated graphite sealing coating, copper-coated graphite sealing coating, or copper-aluminum-nickel graphite sealing coating, etc.

[0056] Further, such as Figure 4 The expansion sheet 3 includes a sheet body 31 and a clamping portion 32 connected to each other. The clamping portion 32 is clamped with the mounting shoulder 22. Both the sheet body 31 and the clamping portion 32 are removable and located in the second groove 12. The sheet body 31 and the second sealing surface 121 of the second groove 12 are in contact with each other.

[0057] Specifically, the sheet body 31 is used for expansion, and the clamping portion 32 is used to achieve a detachable connection between the sheet body 31 and the mounting shoulder 22, thereby facilitating replacement of the expansion sheet 3 of different materials.

[0058] Further, such as Figure 4 The clamping portion 32 includes: a connecting section 321, one end of the connecting section 321 is connected to the sheet body 31; a tenon root 322 connected to the other end of the connecting section 321; wherein the width of the tenon root 322 is greater than the width of the connecting section 321, the tenon root 322 and the connecting section 321 are both clamped with the installation shoulder 22, and the tenon root 322 and the connecting section 321 are both removable and located in the second groove 12.

[0059] Specifically, since the width of the tenon root 322 is greater than the width of the connecting section 321, it is convenient to prevent the expansion sheet 3 and the annular member 2 from being separated from each other during operation.

[0060] Further, such as Figure 4 The ring member 2 also includes a tenon groove 222 and a connecting groove 221 both provided on the mounting shoulder 22. The tenon groove 222, the connecting groove 221 and the second groove 12 are connected in sequence, the tenon root 322 cooperates with the tenon groove 222, and the connecting section 321 cooperates with the connecting groove 221.

[0061] Further, such as Figure 2 , also includes: a first radial cavity 112 formed between the main body 21 and the inner wall of the first groove 11; a second radial cavity 122 formed between the mounting shoulder 22 and the inner wall of the second groove 12; an axial cavity 123 formed between the mounting shoulder 22 and the expansion piece 3 and the inner wall of the second groove 12, and the axial cavity 123 is connected to the second radial cavity 122.

[0062] Specifically, the first radial cavity 112, the second radial cavity 122 and the axial cavity 123 facilitate the expansion sheet 3 and the annular member 2 to expand freely, avoid excessive thermal stress caused by limited expansion, and avoid excessive expansion of the annular member 2 toward the moving blade 5, thereby avoiding friction between the moving blade 5 and the annular member 2.

[0063] Further, such as Figure 4 The connection between the main body 21 and the mounting shoulder 22 is an integrally formed connection. Specifically, the integrally formed connection facilitates increasing the integrity of the main body 21 and the mounting shoulder 22.

[0064] It should be noted that the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1, the annular member 2 and the expansion piece 3 in the present embodiment are all of upper and lower halves, and can be rotated in and out from the middle when disassembling or assembling.

[0065] like Figure 1 The present embodiment further provides a high-temperature turbine, including a thermal expansion gap adjustment structure of the present embodiment, and further including: a rotor 4, a stationary blade bearing cylinder 1 spaced and sleeved outside the rotor 4; moving blades 5 connected to the outside of the rotor 4; a gap 7 formed between the moving blades 5 and the main body 21 of the annular member 2; stationary blades 6 connected to the stationary blade bearing cylinder 1, and the stationary blades 6 and the moving blades 5 are arranged alternately.

[0066] Specifically, the moving blades 5 and the stationary blades 6 cooperate to realize the work of the high-temperature turbine.

[0067] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention patent shall be subject to the attached claims.
