Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ship engineering, in particular to a method for checking installation accuracy of a controllable pitch propeller. BACKGROUND

[0002] The controllable pitch propeller is a kind of propeller which can change the angle between the propeller hub and the blade by rotating the blade through the pitch adjusting mechanism inside the hub, so as to adjust the pitch to adapt to various working conditions. When the pitch is adjusted to the reverse position, the propulsive force generated by the propeller is opposite to the bow direction of the ship, so that the ship moves backward; when the pitch is adjusted to the zero pitch position, the propulsive force generated by the propeller is zero, and the propulsive force obtained by the ship is also zero; when the pitch is adjusted to the forward position, the propulsive force generated by the propeller is the same as the bow direction of the ship, so that the ship moves forward.

[0003] The pitch adjusting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder, a drive shaft, a shaft sleeve and an oil distributor, the hydraulic cylinder is arranged at one end of the propeller close to the blade and is fixedly connected with one end of the shaft sleeve, the drive shaft is slidably arranged in the shaft sleeve, one end of the drive shaft is fixedly connected with the piston of the hydraulic cylinder, the other end of the drive shaft passes through the shaft sleeve and is connected with the oil distributor through a fastener, the blade is rotatably arranged outside the shaft sleeve, a transmission mechanism for converting the axial movement of the drive shaft into the rotation of each blade is arranged between the shaft sleeve and each blade, two oil passing holes are arranged in the drive shaft, the two oil passing holes are respectively connected with the hydraulic chambers on both sides of the piston of the hydraulic cylinder, the flow direction of the hydraulic oil in the two oil passing holes is controlled by the oil distributor, the moving direction of the piston of the hydraulic cylinder can be adjusted, so as to drive the movement of the drive shaft, the movement of the drive shaft is converted into the swing of the blade through the transmission mechanism, so as to realize the adjustment of the pitch of the blade.

[0004] Due to the long length of the drive shaft, the drive shaft is usually in a multi-section structure, that is, the drive shaft is connected by a plurality of shorter sub-shaft bodies, during the ship building process, a part of the sub-shaft bodies are usually assembled at the berth stage, and the remaining sub-shaft bodies and the oil distributor are installed after the ship is launched. The inventor has found through research that after the ship is launched, the sub-shaft bodies and the sub-shaft body installation process are affected by the assembly error, which may cause the movement of the drive shaft to be stuck, resulting in that the movement stroke of the drive shaft after installation is smaller than the movement stroke of the sub-shaft body at the berth stage, which will cause the pitch adjustment range of the controllable pitch propeller to be reduced, and the pitch adjustment capacity of the controllable pitch propeller cannot be fully utilized, therefore, a method for checking the installation accuracy of the controllable pitch propeller is needed to check whether the installation accuracy of the remaining part of the drive shaft after the ship is launched is qualified.
