[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, a fastening tool for an impeller 3 of the present invention, a rotating shaft 1 is provided on one axial side of the impeller 3, a first end of a pressing screw 2 passes through a central through hole of the impeller 3 and is connected to the rotating shaft 1, a second end of the pressing screw 2 extends to the other axial side of the impeller 3 and a washer 4 and a fastening nut 5 are provided thereon, and the fastening tool comprises:

[0033] The pull nut 10 is used to be connected to the second end of the compression screw 2 through a thread; the pull nut 10 has a boss 102 extending radially outward from one end axially away from the compression screw 2;

[0034] The hydraulic cylinder core 11 is sleeved outside the puller 10, and includes a first shaft section 11a and a second shaft section 11b connected to each other; the diameter of the first shaft section 11a is smaller than the diameter of the second shaft section 11b, and the second shaft section 11b abuts against the boss 102 and extends radially outward to form a limiting step 111;

[0036] The thrust cylinder 6 is provided with a second step hole, which includes a second hole section 1 6a and a second hole section 2 6b with different diameters. The second hole section 1 6a can be sleeved outside the fastening nut 5, and the first shaft section 11a extends into the second hole section 2 6b; the thrust cylinder 6 includes a first end and a second end axially oppositely arranged, the first end of the thrust cylinder 6 can be abutted against the washer 4, and the second end of the thrust cylinder 6 abuts against the first end of the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7.

[0037] By adopting a hydraulic control method and utilizing the axial thrust generated by the pressure oil for tightening, interference of friction coefficient fluctuation on the tightening force accuracy is effectively avoided, thereby significantly improving the reliability of the tightening of the impeller 3.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the radial outer end of the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7 is provided with an oil filling hole 71 connected to the pressure chamber 12.

[0039] The oil filling hole 71 is a threaded hole and is connected to the outlet of the hydraulic pump, and a pressure gauge is provided at the outlet of the hydraulic pump to obtain the oil pressure value (P) in the pressure chamber 12. It should be noted that the pressure gauge can be directly installed at the outlet of the hydraulic pump, or can be led to a position visible to the human eye through a pipeline.

[0040] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2 As shown, the end surface of the thrust cylinder 6 is provided with a notch 61 penetrating to the second hole section 1 6 a , and 1 to 2 notches may be provided to expose the fastening nut 5 , so as to facilitate the rotation of the fastening nut 5 through the notch 61 .

[0041] In one embodiment, the central through hole of the hydraulic cylinder core 11 is clearance-matched with the pull nut 10 .

[0042] In one embodiment, the first shaft segment 11a is clearance-fitted with the first hole segment 1 7a; the second shaft segment 11b is clearance-fitted with the first hole segment 2 7b, one of which is a small clearance fit and the other is a larger clearance fit to prevent mutual interference.

[0043] In one embodiment, the first shaft segment 11a and the second hole segment 6b are clearance-fitted.

[0044] In one embodiment, a first sealing member 8 is disposed between the first shaft segment 11a and the first hole segment 1 7a; and a second sealing member 9 is disposed between the second shaft segment 11b and the first hole segment 2 7b.

[0045] In one embodiment, under the action of the pressurized oil in the pressure chamber 12 , a first axial thrust surface 101 is formed between the second shaft segment 11 b and the boss 102 , and a second axial thrust surface 62 is formed between the second end of the thrust cylinder 6 and the first end of the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7 .

[0046] It should be noted that, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, when the oil pressure in the pressure chamber 12 is P, under the action of the first axial thrust surface 101, the axial thrust of the hydraulic cylinder core 11 on the nut 10 is F (directed to the right); under the action of the second axial thrust surface 62, the axial thrust of the cylinder sleeve on the thrust cylinder is also F (directed to the left), and at this time, the thrust of the thrust cylinder body 6 applied to the gasket 4 is also F (to the left), that is, the axial force applied to the impeller 3 is also F.

[0047] Reference Figure 4 As shown, before the impeller 3 is tightened, the tightening thread on the clamping screw 2 is not tightened. The central thread on the pull nut 10 is connected with the thread on the clamping screw 2, so that the first end (left end face) of the thrust cylinder is close to the gasket 4; the oil filling hole 71 on the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7 is connected to the outlet of the manual hydraulic pump, and the hydraulic pump is manually operated to make the pressure gauge installed at the outlet reach the design value P. At this time, the oil pressure in the pressure chamber 12 is equal to P. Under the action of the pressure oil, a first axial thrust surface 101 is formed between the hydraulic cylinder core 11 and the pull nut 10, and the axial thrust of the hydraulic cylinder core 11 on the pull nut 10 is F (direction to the right). At the same time, a second axial thrust surface 62 is formed between the cylinder sleeve and the thrust cylinder body 6, and the axial thrust of the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7 on the thrust cylinder is also F (direction to the left). At this time, the thrust force F (to the left) on the washer 4 by the thrust cylinder 6 is also F, that is, the axial force F on the impeller 3 is also F. Due to the action of the axial force F, the impeller 3 and the washer 4 are compressed, the pressing screw 2 is stretched, and the fastening nut 5 is separated from the washer 4. After the hydraulic pressure P is stable, the axial force F remains unchanged, and the relative axial displacement caused by compression and elongation also remains stable. At this time, the fastening nut 5 is rotated through the notch 61 on the thrust cylinder 6 to make it close to the washer 4, and then the hydraulic pump is operated to relieve the pressure, and the pull nut 10 and the entire fastening tooling are removed. The fastening force F of the impeller 3 is entirely borne by the fastening nut 5 and the pressing screw 2, that is, the entire fastening work of the impeller 3 is completed. By adopting the hydraulic control method and using the axial thrust generated by the pressure oil for fastening, the interference of the friction coefficient fluctuation on the fastening force accuracy is effectively avoided, thereby significantly improving the reliability of the fastening effect.

[0048] It should be noted that when the diameter of the first hole section 1 7a of the hydraulic cylinder sleeve 7 is d, the diameter of the first hole section 2 7b is D (D>d), and the oil pressure in the pressure chamber 12 is equal to P, F = the design tightening force of the impeller 3, then Since P can be accurately controlled and read out by a pressure gauge, a relatively accurate tightening force F of the impeller 3 can be obtained.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific implementation methods are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
