Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of turboprop engine test equipment, and in particular, to a pre-installation device for high-power turboprop engines. In addition, it also relates to a test method using the above-mentioned pre-installation device for high-power turboprop engines. Background Art
[0002] As the core component of an aircraft, the performance of an aeroengine directly determines the overall performance of the aircraft. In order to test the performance of an aeroengine, an aeroengine test stand is usually used as an important facility platform in the design, R & D, production and manufacturing processes of the aeroengine to adapt to the test verification work in the development process of various types of aeroengines.
[0003] As a common engine for large aircraft, a high-power turboprop engine has a large intake air flow rate, usually up to 1800 kg / s. To ensure the requirements and stability of the intake air flow field during the test, a cantilever installation method is generally adopted during the test, that is, the mounting frame, the engine body and the propeller are separately hoisted onto and off the test room. The specific process is that after the mounting frame is assembled onto the moving frame, the engine body is hoisted into the air for in-air assembly, and finally the propeller is hoisted and assembled onto the engine body. The construction of the crane system for this assembly method is simple and the cost is low. However, the operating personnel have a long time of working at height. When the test tasks are heavy, the use efficiency of the test stand is low. This is because due to the complexity of the external structure of the engine body and diverse test requirements, the assembly difficulty of the interface between the engine body and the mounting frame is large, and multiple hoistings are required to complete the installation. Moreover, in-air hoisting requires high-precision hoisting technology and has a large installation difficulty. At the same time, due to the test and measurement requirements, a large number of measuring points and pipelines need to be arranged on the engine body. If all are completed at height, the personnel have a long time of working at height, and because a large number of auxiliary tools are required, they need to frequently go up and down the high platform, posing a great safety risk.
[0004] For example, Chinese Patent Application CN115389206A discloses an aeroengine pre-installation device and a pre-installation method, including a frame body, an installation mechanism, a detachable mounting seat, an installation structure adapted to the test stand frame, an adjustment component and a centering mechanism. While one group of personnel is performing the test process, another group of personnel is performing pre-installation on the pre-installation device, and after the test is completed, the device is pushed to the test stand.
[0005] However, although the above-mentioned pre-installation device can reduce the test installation time to a certain extent, it mainly meets the centering requirements of a turboshaft or turbojet engine through pre-installation. A high-power turboprop engine does not require centering. Moreover, if this pre-installation device is used to install a high-power turboprop engine, its overall installation structure will be unstable due to the limitation of the propeller diameter, and there may be a risk of pitching forward. Therefore, it cannot meet the pre-installation requirements of a high-power turboprop engine and is not applicable to a high-power turboprop engine. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The present invention provides a pre-assembly device and a test run method for a high-power turboprop engine, so as to solve the technical problems that the existing high-power turboprop engine has a long time for hoisting and lowering, the test bench has low use efficiency, or the existing pre-assembly device is not applicable to high-power turboprop engines.

[0012] Further, the sliding member includes a sliding outer shell sleeved outside the two sliding tracks and connected to the connecting plate, a rolling bearing III arranged inside the sliding outer shell and in rolling cooperation with the sliding tracks, and a connecting rod II respectively connected to the rolling bearing III and the sliding outer shell. The sliding tracks, the rolling bearing III, and the connecting rod II are arranged in one-to-one correspondence.
[0013] Further, a plurality of positioning holes are vertically formed in the track framework at intervals. The sliding outer shell is provided with mounting holes corresponding to the positioning holes. The height adjustment structure further includes a positioning pin for sequentially inserting into the mounting hole and the positioning hole after height adjustment.
[0014] Further, the pre-installation frame includes a pre-installation platform, two support frames arranged at intervals on the pre-installation platform, and a cross tie rod respectively connected to the two support frames.

[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: The pre - installation device for high - power turboprop engines of the present invention installs a pre - installation rack in the preparation room, and arranges a height - adjusting structure on the pre - installation rack.

[0021] The following will describe the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention can be implemented in many different ways defined and covered by the following.
[0022] The terms "first" and "second" etc. in the specification, claims and drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order.

[0023] Embodiment 1: As Figures 1 - 3As shown in the figure, the pre-assembly device for a high-power turboprop engine in this embodiment is used for pre-assembling a high-power turboprop engine. The high-power turboprop engine includes an engine main body, a propeller, and a test structure. The pre-assembly device includes a pre-assembly frame 100 for support, a height-adjusting structure 300 disposed on the pre-assembly frame 100, and a mounting frame 200 detachably connected to the height-adjusting structure 300. The pre-assembly frame 100 is used to be installed in a preparation room for pre-assembling the mounting frame 200 and the high-power turboprop engine. The height-adjusting structure 300 is used to adjust the vertical height of the mounting frame 200 during pre-assembly of the mounting frame 200 to prevent interference in the vertical plane during propeller installation. The mounting frame 200 is used to cantilever-mounted the engine main body and install the propeller and the test structure on the engine main body after being connected to the height-adjusting structure 300, and then be hoisted into the test room after being separated from the height-adjusting structure 300.
[0024] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, specifically, for the pre-assembly device of the high-power turboprop engine of the present invention, by installing the pre-assembly frame 100 in the preparation room and arranging the height-adjusting structure 300 on the pre-assembly frame 100 to connect the mounting frame 200 through the height-adjusting structure 300, the engine main body can be installed on the mounting frame 200 in a cantilever manner in advance, and then the propeller and the test structure can be installed on the engine main body, so as to effectively detect and solve the interference problem during the installation of the high-power turboprop engine in advance, that is, transfer part of the modification work of this engine to the preparation room, improve the modification efficiency, reduce the occupation time of the test room, and realize the pre-assembly of the high-power turboprop engine; during pre-assembly, the vertical height of the mounting frame 200 is adjusted through the height-adjusting structure 300 to prevent interference in the vertical plane during propeller installation to meet the pre-assembly requirements of propellers of different specifications: after pre-assembly is completed, by separating the mounting frame 200 from the height-adjusting structure 300, and then hoisting the mounting frame 200 onto the test bench in the test room through a hoisting device for test verification. Since the mounting frame 200 is used to cantilever-mount the engine main body, the stability of the inlet air flow field during the test is ensured, meeting the pre-assembly requirements of the high-power turboprop engine. At the same time, another high-power turboprop engine can be pre-assembled in the preparation room; this solution separates the test of the high-power turboprop engine from the engine changeover to effectively reduce the occupation time of the test bench in the non-test state of the high-power turboprop engine, improve the utilization rate and versatility of the test bench; at the same time, reduce the operation time and high-altitude operation time of the operator during the engine changeover process, reduce the safety risk and labor intensity; compared with the prior art, it meets the pre-assembly requirements of the high-power turboprop engine, realizes the rapid replacement and pre-assembly of the high-power turboprop engine, improves the utilization rate of the test bench, has strong practicability, and is suitable for wide promotion and application.
[0025] It should be understood that the test structure is the measuring points and pipelines installed on the engine main body to meet the test requirements. By completing the pre-installation of the test structure in the preparation room, the occupation time of the test bench is greatly reduced.
[0026] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the pre-installation frame 100 includes two first skeletons 111 arranged vertically and at intervals, a second skeleton 112 arranged horizontally on the tops of the two first skeletons 111, a third skeleton 113 arranged obliquely and connected to the two first skeletons 111, a first reinforcing rib 114 arranged horizontally and connected to the first skeleton 111 and the second skeleton 112 respectively, a second reinforcing rib 115 arranged obliquely and connected to the first skeleton 111 and the second skeleton 112 respectively, and a third reinforcing rib 116 arranged obliquely and connected to the second skeleton 112 and the third skeleton 113 respectively. Specifically, a main body for support is formed by the two first skeletons 111, one second skeleton 112 and one third skeleton 113, and then the first reinforcing rib 114 is welded between the first skeleton 111 and the second skeleton 112, the second reinforcing rib 115 is welded between the first skeleton 111 and the second skeleton 112, and the third reinforcing rib 116 is welded between the second skeleton 112 and the third skeleton 113 to form a plurality of triangular structures to ensure the stability of the overall structure of the pre-installation frame 100, thereby realizing the stable pre-installation of the high-power turboprop engine.
[0027] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, the height adjustment structure 300 includes a track system 310 arranged on the first skeleton 111 for plug-in fit with the end part in the horizontal direction of the mounting frame 200 in the vertical direction, a connecting plate 320 slidably arranged vertically on the track system 310 for supporting the mounting frame 200 from the bottom to drive the mounting frame 200 to move vertically, and a height adjustment driving member arranged on the second skeleton 112 and having a movable end connected to the connecting plate 320 for driving the connecting plate 320 to slide vertically. The track system 310 and the first skeleton 111 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, after the end part in the horizontal direction of the mounting frame 200 is plugged in fit with the track system 310 in the vertical direction, the bottom of the end part in the horizontal direction of the mounting frame 200 abuts against the connecting plate 320, so as to drive the connecting plate 320 to slide vertically through the height adjustment driving member, and then the mounting frame 200 can be driven to move vertically, thereby adjusting the vertical height of the mounting frame 200, preventing interference in the vertical plane during the installation of the propeller, and meeting the pre-installation requirements of propellers of different specifications; the track system 310 and the first skeleton 111 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence, that is, two track systems 310 are arranged at intervals and are plugged in fit with the mounting frame 200 at the same time to realize the horizontal limit of the mounting frame 200; and since the height adjustment structure 300 is only connected to the end part in the horizontal direction of the mounting frame 200, the mounting frame 200 is arranged suspended relative to the pre-installation frame 100, so as to have a large amount of installation space, which is convenient for the installation of the engine main body, the propeller and the test structure, and improves the pre-installation efficiency.
[0028] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, the height adjustment driving member includes a motor 330, a disk mechanism 340, and a height adjustment rope 350 sleeved outside the disk mechanism 340 and connected to the motor 330 and the connecting plate 320 respectively. By operating the motor 330, the disk mechanism 340 changes the movement direction of the height adjustment rope 350, and then drives the connecting plate 320 to vertically slide along with the height adjustment rope 350, so as to adjust the vertical height of the mounting frame 200.
[0029] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, a counterweight 117 is arranged on the connecting plate 320 to ensure the stability of the overall structure of the pre-mounted frame 100 and the mounting frame 200.
[0030] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, the track system 310 includes a track skeleton 311 arranged on the first skeleton 111 and used for vertically plugging and matching with the horizontal end of the mounting frame 200, two sliding tracks 312 respectively arranged on the two outer sides of the track skeleton 311, and a sliding member slidably sleeved outside the two sliding tracks 312 and connected to the connecting plate 320. Specifically, the track skeleton 311 is vertically plugged and matched with the horizontal end of the mounting frame 200, and then the sliding member is reliably installed through the two sliding tracks 312. By sliding the sliding member relative to the sliding tracks 312, the connecting plate 320 can move vertically to adjust the vertical height of the mounting frame 200.
[0031] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, a first rolling bearing 313, a first connecting rod 314, and two second rolling bearings 315 are arranged in the track skeleton 311. The first connecting rod 314 is respectively connected to the first rolling bearing 313 and the inner wall of the track skeleton 311, and the two second rolling bearings 315 are respectively connected to the two opposite inner walls of the rolling skeleton. The first rolling bearing 313 and the two second rolling bearings 315 are arranged in a triangular pattern in the horizontal plane and are all used for rolling cooperation with the horizontal end of the mounting frame 200. Specifically, the positioning of the mounting frame 200 is realized through the first rolling bearing 313 and the two second rolling bearings 315 arranged in a triangular pattern in the horizontal plane. When the mounting frame 200 moves vertically, the friction resistance is reduced through rolling cooperation, which facilitates the smooth movement of the mounting frame 200 in the vertical direction and avoids interference and jamming.
[0032] As Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding member includes a sliding housing 316 sleeved outside the two sliding rails 312 and connected to the connecting plate 320, a rolling bearing 317 arranged in the sliding housing 316 and rolling-matched with the sliding rails 312, and a connecting rod 2 318 connected to the rolling bearing 317 and the sliding housing 316 respectively, and the sliding rails 312, the rolling bearing 317 and the connecting rod 2 318 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, when the connecting plate 320 moves vertically, the sliding housing 316 moves relative to the sliding rails 312, and the rolling bearing 317 converts the linear fit friction into rolling fit friction, which greatly reduces the friction resistance, facilitates the smooth movement of the connecting plate 320 in the vertical direction, and avoids obstacles.
[0033] In this embodiment, a plurality of positioning holes arranged at intervals are vertically provided on the track frame 311, and a mounting hole corresponding to the positioning hole is provided on the sliding housing 316, and the height adjustment structure 300 further includes a positioning pin 360 for sequentially inserting into the mounting hole and the positioning hole after height adjustment. Specifically, when the mounting frame 200 is adjusted to a suitable vertical height, the positioning pin 360 is sequentially inserted into the mounting hole and the positioning hole to fix the sliding member, thereby preventing the mounting frame 200 from moving vertically during the pre-installation process, and ensuring the stability of the overall structure.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting frame 200 includes a U-shaped plate 1, a U-shaped plate 2, an adapter plate, a tie rod assembly 1 respectively connected to the U-shaped plate 1 and the U-shaped plate 2, and a tie rod assembly 2 respectively connected to the U-shaped plate 2 and the adapter plate. The U-shaped plate 1 and the U-shaped plate 2 enclose a storage space to install the engine body, and the adapter plate is plugged into and matched with the rail system 310.
[0035] Embodiment 2: like Figure 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the pre-installation frame 100 includes a pre-installation platform 121, two support frames 122 arranged at intervals on the pre-installation platform 121, and a tie rod 123 respectively connected to the two support frames 122. Specifically, the pre-installation frame 100 is entirely made of I-beams, and the structural strength is guaranteed. The two support frames are arranged at intervals on the pre-installation platform 121 through expansion bolts, and then the two support frames 122 are connected through the tie rod 123 to form an integral structure, and the space between the two support frames is used to install the engine body.
[0036] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the support frame 122 includes a plurality of vertical supports arranged at intervals, an oblique support 124 connected to one of the vertical supports, a top cross beam connected to the plurality of vertical supports respectively, and reinforcing ribs 125 connected to the vertical supports and the top cross beam respectively, so as to enhance the structural stability through the reinforcing ribs 125 and the oblique supports 124.
[0037] As Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, the height adjustment structure 300 includes a mounting plate 380 disposed on the support frame 122, an ear 370 detachably connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 200, a plurality of first fixing holes vertically formed on the mounting plate 380, a second fixing hole formed on the ear 370 for corresponding arrangement with the first fixing holes, and a fixing bolt for sequentially inserting into the second fixing hole and the first fixing hole after height adjustment. Specifically, the height adjustment structure 300 includes four ears 370. The four feet of the U-shaped plate one and the U-shaped plate two of the mounting frame 200 are respectively placed on the four ears 370. Connecting holes are drilled on the ears 370, the U-shaped plate one and the U-shaped plate two. After the U-shaped plate one and the U-shaped plate two are placed in appropriate positions, they are fixedly connected by inserting a plug pin. In order to ensure that there is no interference of the propeller in the vertical plane during installation, the second fixing hole on the ear 370 corresponds to the first fixing holes at different heights on the mounting plate 380, and after being locked by the fixing bolt, the ear 370 can be fixed at an appropriate vertical height, and then the mounting frame 200 and the propeller can be fixed at an appropriate vertical height.
[0038] As Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, the ears 370 are arranged in a triangular shape to ensure the structural stability.
[0039] Embodiment Three: As Figure 8 shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment Two is that the pre-installation device further includes a mobile escalator 400 disposed in the test room to facilitate the operator to pre-install the high-power turboprop engine through the mobile escalator 400.
[0040] The test run method of the high-power turboprop engine in this embodiment adopts the above-mentioned pre-installation device for the high-power turboprop engine, and includes the following steps: S1. In the preparation room, select and set the vertical height according to the specifications of the propeller in the high-power turboprop engine to be tested, and install the mounting frame 200 on the height-adjusting structure 300 of the pre-installation frame 100 based on the set vertical height; S2. Install the engine body on the mounting frame 200, and then install the propeller and the test structure on the engine body respectively; S3. After the hoisting equipment hoists and connects the mounting frame 200, separate the mounting frame 200 from the height-adjusting structure 300, and then hoist and transfer the mounting frame 200 into the test room to conduct the test run of the high-power turboprop engine to be tested. At the same time, in the preparation room, pre-install the next high-power turboprop engine to be tested. Specifically, by adopting the test run method of this embodiment, during the test of the previous high-power turboprop engine, the pre-installation of the next high-power turboprop engine can be carried out synchronously in the preparation room. After the test of the previous high-power turboprop engine is completed, the assembly of the next high-power turboprop engine can be quickly carried out, and the pre-installation requirements of the high-power turboprop engine are met during pre-installation, so as to effectively reduce the occupancy time of the high-power turboprop engine in the non-test state, improve the utilization rate and versatility of the test stand; at the same time, reduce the operation time and high-altitude operation time of the operator during the process of changing engines, and reduce the safety risk and labor intensity.
