The frame 10 is sequentially provided with a first platform 11, a second platform 12, a third platform 13 and a fourth platform 14 from top to bottom. The first bearing group 20 is installed on the first platform 11, the second bearing group 30 is installed on the second platform 12, the third bearing group 40 is installed on the third platform 13, and the driver 50 is installed on the fourth platform 14. The main shaft 60 is longitudinally installed on the first bearing group 20, the second bearing group 30 and the third bearing group 40, and the main shaft 60 is movably and adjustably docked with the output shaft of the driver 50. This connection method includes elastic connection and non-contact magnetic coupling connection. Preferably, non-contact magnetic coupling connection is used, which can eliminate the influence of the mechanical vibration of the motor axis on the shafting test device and eliminate interference. Both the first bearing group 20 and the third bearing group 40 include a first bearing seat 21, a first bearing bush 24 and a first adjustment device. The two first bearing seats 21 are respectively installed on the first platform 11 and the third platform 13. A plurality of first bearing bushes 24 are radially slidably installed inside the first bearing seat 21 around the main shaft 60. First adjustment devices are respectively installed on the first bearing seat 21 at positions corresponding to the first bearing bushes 24. The first adjustment device is used to adjust the gap between the first bearing bush 24 and the main shaft 60; a first displacement sensor 27 for detecting the position of the first bearing bush 24 is also installed on the first bearing seat 21.

[0030] The first bearing group 20 is used to simulate the upper guide bearing of a real vertical water turbine generator set, the second bearing group 30 is used to simulate the lower guide bearing and thrust bearing of a real vertical water turbine generator set, and the third bearing group 40 is used to simulate the water guide bearing of a real vertical water turbine generator set.

[0031] In this embodiment, the gap between the first bearing bush 24 and the main shaft 60 is adjusted by the first adjustment device, so as to simulate the bearing rubbing, uneven bearing clearance, too large / small bearing clearance, and loose bearing support of the upper guide bearing and water guide bearing of the vertical water turbine generator set.

[0032] The first displacement sensor 27 adopts an LVDT linear displacement sensor. See Figure 7 , the first displacement sensor 27 is radially installed on the first bearing seat 21, and the detection end of the first displacement sensor 27 abuts against the outer wall of the first bearing bush 24, so as to facilitate measuring the position of the first bearing bush 24 and further calculating the gap between the first bearing bush 24 and the main shaft 60.

[0033] See Figure 4 、 5, at 7, on the main shaft 60 at the positions of the first bearing group 20 and the third bearing group 40, there are respectively provided with first annular cavities 611 that are open at the lower side. The inner hole of the first bearing seat 21 of the first bearing group 20 is provided with a first oil retaining ring 22. The first oil retaining ring 22 extends upward into the first annular cavity 611. A first oil chamber 29 is formed between the first bearing seat 21 and the first oil retaining ring 22. The first bearing bush 24 surrounds the outer wall of the main shaft 60. During the test, oil is injected into the first oil chamber 29 to further simulate the lubrication environment of the first bearing bush 24. The outer surface of the first oil retaining ring 22 is provided with reverse spiral grooves. The reverse spiral grooves can play the role of a self-priming pump when the main shaft rotates, making the oil in the spiral grooves have a tendency to flow downward and preventing the oil from overflowing from the top of the first oil retaining ring 22 during movement.

[0034] In this embodiment, a shaft head 61 is installed at the top of the main shaft 60. The first annular cavity 611 at the first bearing group 20 is formed by the shaft head 61 and the outer circumference of the main shaft 60.

[0035] Similarly, referring to Figure 4 , the first oil retaining ring 22 of the third bearing group 40 extends upward into the first annular cavity 611 located at the third bearing group 40.

[0036] When the main shaft 60 rotates rapidly, in order to prevent the lubricating oil in the first oil chamber 29 from splashing, referring to Figure 5 , a first upper cover 28 is installed on the first bearing seat 21. At the same time, a first oil inlet pipe 281 and a first oil return pipe 282 are installed on the first upper cover 28. During the test, lubricating oil is injected into the first oil chamber 29 through the first oil inlet pipe 281, and the lubricating oil is drawn out through the first oil return pipe 282, thereby simulating the circulating lubrication environment under real conditions. The number of the first oil inlet pipe 281 and the first oil return pipe 282 can be one or more. In this embodiment, the number of the first oil inlet pipe 281 is 2, and the number of the first oil return pipe 282 is 2.

[0037] The depths of the first oil inlet pipe 281 and the first oil return pipe 282 inserted into the first oil chamber 29 are adjustable, and the installation positions of the first oil inlet pipe 281 and the first oil return pipe 282 on the first upper cover 28 can be replaced and adjusted with each other. The first oil inlet pipe 281 and the first oil return pipe 282 are connected to an external oil circulation cooling device. The oil in the oil tank is circulated and cooled through the oil circulation cooling device to prevent the oil temperature from being too high. By adjusting the arrangement mode of the first oil inlet pipe 281 and the first oil return pipe 282 on the first upper cover 28 and the depths inserted into the first oil chamber 29, the adjustment of the circulating oil path can be realized to meet the personalized requirements for the circulating oil path during different fault simulation tests.

[0038] Further, in order to facilitate measuring the temperature of the first bearing bush 24 and the temperature of the lubricating oil in the first oil cavity 29 during the simulation test, a first temperature sensor 241 is installed on the first bearing bush 24, and a second temperature sensor 212 is installed on the first bearing housing 21, and the second temperature sensor 212 extends into the first oil cavity 29.

[0039] Specifically, the first temperature sensor 241 and the second temperature sensor 212 can adopt pt100 platinum thermal resistance temperature sensors. An installation hole is provided on the outer side of the first bearing bush 24, the probe of the pt100 platinum thermal resistance temperature sensor is buried in the installation hole of the first bearing bush 24, and the cable of the first temperature sensor 241 passes through the outer wall of the first bearing housing 21 in a sealed manner.

A flange 62 is provided on the outer wall of the main shaft 60, and a friction ring 35 is installed on the lower side of the flange 62. The friction ring 35 is supported on the thrust bearing bush 34. A height adjustment screw 321 is screwed on the ring seat 32 at a position corresponding to the thrust bearing bush 34, and the height adjustment screw 321 supports the lower side of the thrust bearing bush 34; a plurality of second bearing bushes 36 are installed in the second bearing housing 31 to slide radially around the main shaft 60, and second adjustment devices are respectively installed on the second bearing housing 31 at positions corresponding to the second bearing bushes 36, and the second adjustment device is used to adjust the gap between the second bearing bush 36 and the main shaft 60; a second displacement sensor 37 for detecting the position of the second bearing bush 36 is also installed on the second bearing housing 31.

[0041] In this embodiment, the thrust bearing bush 34 is used to simulate the thrust bearing bush of a real vertical water turbine generator set, and the friction ring 35 is used to simulate the mirror plate of a real vertical water turbine generator set. The gap between the second bearing bush 36 and the main shaft 60 is adjusted by the second adjustment device, so as to simulate the bearing rubbing, uneven bearing clearance, too large / small bearing clearance, and loose bearing support faults of the lower guide bearing of the vertical water turbine generator set. And by adjusting the height adjustment screw 321, it can also be used to simulate the unqualified horizontal and loose support faults of the thrust bearing of the vertical water turbine generator set.

[0042] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 5-8 , both the first adjustment device and the second adjustment device include an adjustment push rod 25 and two adjustment pull rods 26.

[0043] Among them, refer to Figure 5, 7 , one end of the adjusting push rod 25 of the first adjusting device abuts against the first bearing bush 24, and the other end is threadedly connected to the first bearing housing 21. When the adjusting push rod 25 is rotated to move inward, the adjusting push rod 25 pushes the first bearing bush 24 inward. When the adjusting push rod 25 is rotated to move outward, the adjusting push rod 25 separates from the first bearing bush 24. The two adjusting pull rods 26 of the first adjusting device are respectively located on both sides of the adjusting push rod 25. One end of the adjusting pull rod 26 is axially limitedly connected to the first bearing bush 24, that is, the adjusting pull rod 26 can rotate, but no axial displacement can occur between the adjusting pull rod 26 and the first bearing bush 24. The other end of the adjusting pull rod 26 is threadedly connected to the first bearing housing 21. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is rotated to move outward, the adjusting pull rod 26 pulls the first bearing bush 24 outward. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is rotated to move inward, the adjusting pull rod 26 separates from the first bearing bush 24.

[0044] See Figure 6 , 8 , one end of the adjusting push rod 25 of the second adjusting device abuts against the second bearing bush 36, and the other end is threadedly connected to the second bearing housing 31. When the adjusting push rod 25 is rotated to move inward, the adjusting push rod 25 pushes the second bearing bush 36 inward. When the adjusting push rod 25 is rotated to move outward, the adjusting push rod 25 separates from the second bearing bush 36. The two adjusting pull rods 26 of the second adjusting device are respectively located on both sides of the adjusting push rod 25. One end of the adjusting pull rod 26 is axially limitedly connected to the second bearing bush 36, that is, the adjusting pull rod 26 can rotate, but no axial displacement can occur between the adjusting pull rod 26 and the first bearing bush 24. The other end of the adjusting pull rod 26 is threadedly connected to the second bearing housing 31. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is rotated to move outward, the adjusting pull rod 26 pulls the second bearing bush 36 outward. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is rotated to move inward, the adjusting pull rod 26 separates from the second bearing bush 36.

[0045] In one of the solutions, a T-shaped rod head is provided at the end of each adjusting pull rod 26, and T-shaped grooves are provided on the first bearing bush 24 and the second bearing bush 36. The T-shaped rod head is inserted into the T-shaped groove. The width of the T-shaped rod head is smaller than the depth of the T-shaped groove. The T-shaped rod head can move axially along the adjusting pull rod 26 in the T-shaped groove. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is pulled outward, the first bearing bush 24 and the second bearing bush 36 can be pulled outward. When the adjusting pull rod 26 is pushed inward, the T-shaped rod head can move in the gap of the T-shaped groove, and the first bearing bush 24 and the second bearing bush 36 are not driven to move inward. Through the mutual cooperation of the adjusting push rod 25 and the adjusting pull rod 26, the positions of the first bearing bush 24 and the second bearing bush 36 are adjusted.

[0046] Furthermore, see Figure 6, a second oil retaining ring 33 is installed in the inner hole of the ring seat 32. A second annular cavity 63 is provided inside the flange 62 of the main shaft 60.

During the test, oil is injected into the second oil chamber 39 to further simulate the lubrication environment of the second bearing bush 36.

[0047] The outer surface of the second oil retaining ring 33 is provided with a reverse spiral groove. The reverse spiral groove can play the role of a self-priming pump when the main shaft rotates, making the oil in the spiral groove tend to flow downward and preventing the oil from overflowing from the top of the second oil retaining ring 33 during movement.

[0048] When the main shaft 60 rotates rapidly, in order to prevent the lubricating oil in the second oil chamber 39 from splashing, see Figure 6 , a second upper cover 38 is installed on the second bearing seat 31.

[0049] Furthermore, a second inlet pipe 381 and a second return pipe 382 are installed on the second upper cover 38. During the test, lubricating oil is injected into the second oil chamber 39 through the second inlet pipe 381, and the lubricating oil is drawn out through the second return pipe 382, so as to simulate the circulating lubrication environment in the real state.
