[0041] Combine the following Figures 1 to 7 , describing the turbofan engine turbine structure and turbofan engine with built-in motor power extraction according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, a turbofan engine turbine structure with built-in motor power extraction is provided, comprising a low-pressure turbine rotor 1, an exhaust support 2, an engine tail cone 3, a power extraction motor 4, and a motor lubricating oil pipeline 6. Specifically, as Figure 1As shown, the exhaust support 2 is coaxially mounted on the low-pressure turbine rotor 1, and the exhaust support 2 is rotationally connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1. The engine tail cone 3 is coaxially fixed on the exhaust support 2, and the power extraction motor 4 is arranged in the engine tail cone 3. Specifically, the power extraction motor 4 is a high-speed motor. The power extraction motor 4 is coaxially fixed on the exhaust support 2, for example, it can be connected through a flange stop, and the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 is directly connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 through the transmission shaft 5.

[0043] Furthermore, the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 is arranged to penetrate the exhaust support 2 in the radial direction, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inlet end 601 of the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 is connected to the lubricating oil cooling circulation system, and the outlet end 602 is connected to the power extraction motor 4, and the cable 402 of the power extraction motor 4 is penetrated and arranged in the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6. Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power extraction motor 4 is provided with an oil inlet 403 and an oil return port 404. The inlet end 601 of the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 is connected to the lubricating oil cooling circulation system, the outlet end 602 of the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 is connected to the oil inlet 403, and the oil return port 404 is connected to the lubricating oil cooling circulation system. In order to facilitate the connection of the lubricating oil pipeline, the oil inlet 403 and the oil return port 404 are provided with an adapter 17.

[0044] Since the power extraction motor 4 is installed inside the engine tail cone 3, the high-temperature combustion gas of the engine flows at high speed through the surface of the motor outer shell, and the combustion gas flow temperature is in the range of 550℃~850℃. The high-temperature combustion gas flow will heat up the motor. In order to ensure the normal operation of the power extraction motor 4, it is necessary to control the internal temperature of the motor within the range of 180℃, so the motor is cooled by lubricating oil. The cooling lubricating oil flows into the oil inlet 403 through the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 and the adapter 17, and enters the lubricating oil flow channel inside the power extraction motor 4. After circulating cooling inside the motor, it returns to the lubricating oil cooling circulation system through the return oil port 404 and the return oil pipeline below. In addition, the cable 402 of the power extraction motor 4 is placed in the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6, and is surrounded by flowing cooling lubricating oil, so that the temperature of the wire can be reduced to ensure the normal operation of the wire.

[0045] In this configuration, the power extraction motor 4 is placed inside the engine tail cone 3, and the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 is directly connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 through the transmission shaft 5, without the need to set up a complex accessory transmission device. Compared with the traditional accessory transmission power extraction solution, the structure is more simple and compact, reducing the space occupied by the engine and reducing the R&D and manufacturing costs. The motor cable 402 is inserted into the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 and led out to the outside of the engine. The lubricating oil can cool the wires, reduce the impact of the high-temperature gas environment on the wires, and ensure the reliable operation of the wires.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1As shown, the inlet end 601 of the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 is provided with an electro-hydraulic separation connector 7, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the electro-hydraulic separation connector 7 has an electrical interface 701 and a liquid interface 702. The electrical interface 701 is used for the cable 402 to pass through, and the liquid interface 702 is used to connect to the lubricating oil cooling circulation system. Specifically, the electro-hydraulic separation connector 7 is provided with a wire mounting seat 703, and the external wires and the cable 402 are fixed on the wire mounting seat 703. For example, the internal and external wires are connected by copper terminals 704, and the wiring is isolated and sealed by insulating materials. With such a configuration, the motor output line adopts the electro-hydraulic separation connector 7 to achieve the separation of the circuit and the oil circuit, avoid mutual interference and leakage that may cause system failures, improve the stability and reliability of the entire device, and facilitate installation and maintenance, improve work efficiency, and meet the application requirements of engine working conditions.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the transmission shaft 5 includes a first connecting section 501, a second connecting section 502, and an inclined transition section 503 arranged between the first connecting section 501 and the second connecting section 502, and the outer diameter of the first connecting section 501 is greater than the outer diameter of the second connecting section 502. The first connecting section 501 is connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 through a spline meshing connection, for example, the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 is provided with a first internal spline, the first connecting section 501 is provided with a matching first external spline, and the first external spline is meshed with the first internal spline. The second connecting section 502 is connected to the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 through a spline meshing connection, for example, the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 is provided with a second internal spline, the second connecting section 502 is provided with a matching second external spline, and the second external spline is meshed with the second internal spline. In this arrangement, the drive shaft 5 is connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 and the power extraction motor 4 through splines, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, has automatic centering capability and good interchangeability, and the drive shaft 5 is designed as a stepped shaft, which can achieve lightweight design on the one hand, and meet installation space requirements on the other hand, making the structural design more reasonable and the spatial layout more compact.

[0048] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the splines on the first connecting section 501 and the second connecting section 502 are drum splines. Correspondingly, the splines on the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 and the power extraction motor 4 are also drum splines. With such a configuration, the use of drum splines has a strong ability to compensate for offsets, and can well compensate for the axial, angular and radial offsets between the axes of the two connected shafts, avoid vibration and noise problems caused by the non-concentricity of the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 and the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 on both sides, prevent the rotor dynamic characteristics between the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 and the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 from interfering with each other, adapt to high-speed working conditions, and have high working reliability.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, the exhaust support 2 includes a first annular support 201, a second annular support 202, a third annular support 203 and a plurality of support plates 204. Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, along the radial direction of the exhaust support 2, the first annular support 201, the second annular support 202 and the third annular support 203 are sequentially arranged from the outside to the inside, thereby forming a multi-layer support structure.

[0050] An outer duct 8 is formed between the first annular support 201 and the second annular support 202. After the air enters the turbofan engine, a part of the air directly enters the outer duct 8 under the action of the fan. The airflow temperature of the outer duct 8 generally does not exceed 150°C, and the gas temperature is relatively low. An inner duct 9 is formed between the second annular support 202 and the third annular support 203. Another part of the air enters the combustion chamber under the action of the fan and flows through the inner duct 9 after participating in combustion. The airflow temperature of the inner duct 9 is in the range of 550°C to 850°C, and the gas temperature is relatively high.

[0051] The interior of the third annular support 203 forms a receiving cavity 10 for mounting the low-pressure turbine rotor 1. Figure 2 As shown, the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 is rotatably connected to the third annular support 203 via a bearing 11. The engine tail cone 3 is connected to the third annular support 203, for example, via a flange stop, and the conical tip 301 of the engine tail cone 3 is provided with an exhaust hole 12.

[0052] like Figure 7 As shown, multiple support plates 204 are arranged along the radial direction of the exhaust support 2, and multiple support plates 204 are distributed at intervals around the circumference of the exhaust support 2. The number of support plates 204 needs to be specifically determined according to actual design requirements, and multiple support plates 204 are distributed in an annular array. The support plates 204 are connected to the first annular support 201, the second annular support 202, and the third annular support 203.

[0053] With such configuration, the exhaust support 2 adopts a multi-layer support structure, which effectively enhances the structural stability, improves the deformation resistance, optimizes the shock absorption and noise reduction effects, reduces the vibration transmission efficiency, reduces the impact of vibration on surrounding structures, and improves the reliability of the entire system.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4As shown, the support plate 204 is a hollow structure, the hollow structure is connected to the accommodating cavity 10, and the support plate 204 is provided with a first through hole 13, and the first through hole 13 is respectively connected to the outer duct 8 and the hollow structure. In this way, by opening the first through hole 13 in the support plate 204, the air of the outer duct 8 can be introduced into the accommodating cavity 10 through the first through hole 13 and the internal space of the support plate 204, so that the low-temperature airflow of the outer duct 8 can be used to cool the engine bearing cavity, reduce the airflow temperature in the accommodating cavity 10, and when flowing along the surface of the power extraction motor 4 to the exhaust hole 12 at the tip of the tail cone, it can also play a cooling function for the power extraction motor 4, and then the motor is fully prevented from working failure caused by overheating of the motor working temperature under the dual cooling effect of lubricating oil cooling and air cooling.

[0055] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 sequentially passes through the first annular support 201, the second annular support 202 and the third annular support 203, and the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 located in the inner channel 9 and the accommodating cavity 10 is penetrated in the support support plate 204. It can be understood that the pipelines required for the power extraction motor 4, including but not limited to the cable 402, the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6, the return oil pipeline, etc., can all pass through the support support plate 204.

[0056] Among them, Figure 5 As shown, the second annular support 202 is provided with a second through hole 14 , the motor oil pipeline 6 passes through the second through hole 14 , and there is a gap 15 between the second through hole 14 and the motor oil pipeline 6 , and the gap 15 is connected to the outer culvert channel 8 .

[0057] In this way, there is a gap 15 between the second through hole 14 and the motor oil pipeline 6. Figure 2 In the direction indicated by the middle arrow, the air in the outer duct 8 can be introduced into the accommodating cavity 10 through the second through hole 14 and the internal space of the supporting support plate 204, and flow along the surface of the power extraction motor 4 to the exhaust hole 12 at the tip of the tail cone, thereby further introducing the outer duct air to have a heat insulation effect on the motor surface and reduce the heat conduction of the inner duct 9 to the power extraction motor 4.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, the support plate 204 includes a load-bearing support plate 2041 and a flow channel support plate 2042. Figure 4 As shown, the load-bearing support plate 2041 is provided with a first through hole 13, and the interior of the load-bearing support plate 2041 is provided with a first cavity 20411 connected to the accommodating cavity 10 to form a hollow structure. The load-bearing support plate 2041 is connected to the first annular support 201, the second annular support 202 and the third annular support 203, so as to transmit the radial force of the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 to the external mounting node of the engine through the load-bearing support plate 2041.

[0059] Specifically, the upper end and the lower end of the load-bearing support plate 2041 are respectively provided with a first through hole 13 and a third through hole 19, so that Figure 2 In the direction indicated by the middle arrow, the air in the outer channel 8 can be introduced into the accommodating cavity 10 through the first through hole 13, the first cavity 20411, and the third through hole 19.

[0060] like Figure 4 As shown, the flow channel support plate 2042 is disposed between the second annular support 202 and the third annular support 203, and the flow channel support plate 2042 is provided with a second cavity 20421 in communication with the accommodating cavity 10, and the load-bearing support plate 2041 and the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 are both disposed in the second cavity 20421. Specifically, as Figure 3 As shown, the flow channel support plate 2042 is designed as a blade structure. The high-temperature combustion gas flow in the inner channel 9 flows through the surface of the flow channel support plate 2042, which can optimize the airflow guidance, reduce flow losses, and thus improve the performance of the entire system.

[0061] In this way, the support plate 204 is designed as a multi-layer support plate structure, which can effectively improve the structural strength, reliably transmit the radial force of the rotor, optimize the gas flow characteristics, and improve the performance of the equipment. The overall structure of the support plate is reasonably designed and compactly arranged.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, the turbofan engine turbine structure with built-in motor power extraction also includes an engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16, such as Figure 4 As shown, the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16 is set in the radial direction of the exhaust bearing 2 and penetrates the support plate 204. The engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16 is used to provide cooling lubricating oil to the bearing 11. Specifically, the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16 is set in the load-bearing support plate 2041. Further, as Figure 4 As shown, a limit support plate 18 is also provided in the load-bearing support plate 2041, and the limit support plate 18 is provided between the load-bearing support plate 2041 and the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16 to provide a limit support for the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16 and reduce the vibration problem of the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16. In this way, cooling lubricating oil is transported to the engine bearing 11 through the engine bearing lubricating oil pipeline 16, so that the bearing 11 can be cooled and the working reliability of the engine can be improved.

[0063] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, a turbofan engine is also provided, including a turbofan engine turbine structure with built-in motor power extraction in each of the above embodiments. In this way, the power extraction motor 4 is placed inside the engine tail cone 3, and the rotor shaft 401 of the power extraction motor 4 is directly connected to the low-pressure turbine rotor 1 through the transmission shaft 5 to achieve the output of the turbine shaft power. Compared with the traditional accessory transmission power extraction scheme, there is no need to set up a complex accessory transmission device, the structure is simpler, and the R&D and manufacturing costs of the engine are reduced. And the motor cable 402 is inserted into the motor lubricating oil pipeline 6 and led out to the outside of the engine. The lubricating oil can be used to cool the wires, reduce the damage to the wires by the high temperature environment of the turbine, and ensure the reliable operation of the wires. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is roughly similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect of the turbofan engine turbine structure with built-in motor power extraction, so it will not be repeated here.

[0064] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
