DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present application can be implemented in various different ways as defined and covered by the following description.

[0036] Figure 2 is a structural schematic view of the diffuser structure of the preferred embodiment of the present application; Figure 3 is a structural schematic view of the diffuser assembly of the preferred embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 is a mounting schematic view of the sealing structure of the preferred embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 is a structural schematic view of the sealing structure of the preferred embodiment of the present application.

[0037] As shown in Figures 2 to 4 , the sealing structure of the present embodiment is applied to the diffuser structure of an aero-engine, the diffuser structure comprising a diffuser assembly 1 and a diffuser case 2, the diffuser assembly 1 comprising a radial diffuser 12 and an axial diffuser 11, the sealing structure comprising a sealing member 4 in the form of a ring, the sealing member 4 being configured with a first axial matching edge 41, a second axial matching edge 45 and an axial close edge 43, the first axial matching edge 41 being used for axial abutting matching with a connecting wall at an inlet position of the axial diffuser 11, the axial close edge 43 being used for abutting matching with the diffuser case 2, the second axial matching edge 45 being used for axial abutting matching with a side wall at an outlet end of the radial diffuser 12, the sealing member 4 being further configured with a first elastic edge 42 connected between a first end of the axial close edge 43 and the first axial matching edge 41, and a second elastic edge 44 connected between a second end of the axial close edge 43 and the second axial matching edge 45, the first axial matching edge 41 and the axial close edge 43 having a first preset axial spacing L1 for axial interference assembly between the diffuser case 2 and the axial diffuser 11, the second axial matching edge 45 and the axial close edge 43 having a second preset axial spacing for matching the spacing between the diffuser case 2 and the radial diffuser 12.

[0038] It can be understood that the seal ring is axially abutted with the diffuser casing 2 through the axial abutting edge 43, the first axial fitting edge 41 is axially abutted with the connecting wall of the inlet position of the axial diffuser 11, and the second axial fitting edge 45 is axially abutted with the radial diffuser 12. Under the action of the first elastic edge 42, the seal 4 is always axially fitted with the diffuser casing 2 and the diffuser assembly 1 in the assembled state and the working state, thereby matching the axial deformation of the diffuser structure and being consistent with the deformation amount of the diffuser assembly 1 to ensure the structural reliability. At the same time, the sealing structure is in an elastic change state. Under the action of the first elastic edge 42 and the second elastic edge 44 on the second axial fitting edge 45, the seal 4 can provide damping action between the axial diffuser 11 and the diffuser casing 2 and between the radial diffuser 12 and the diffuser casing 2, respectively, effectively reducing resonance and improving service life. At the same time, the axial abutting edge 43 and the first axial fitting edge 41 are axially abutted by the first elastic edge 42, and the seal 4 can form an air chamber between the axial fitting condition and the diffuser assembly 1, which not only plays a sealing role to prevent airflow from affecting engine performance, but also further strengthens the elastic damping effect.

[0039] In some preferred embodiments, the first elastic edge 42 has a first preset axial stiffness, and the second elastic edge 44 has a second preset axial stiffness. By respectively designing the axial stiffness of the first elastic edge 42 and the axial stiffness of the second elastic edge 44, the seal 4 can be in an elastic change state in the working state while providing a damping effect.

[0040] In some preferred embodiments, the first elastic edge 42 includes a curved portion 421 for providing elastic deformation and a flat portion 422 for controlling the stiffness of the first elastic edge 42. The flat portion 422 is at a first preset angle a1 with the radial direction to make the first elastic edge 42 have a first preset axial stiffness, and the second elastic edge 44 is at a second preset angle a2 with the radial direction to make the second elastic edge 44 have a second preset axial stiffness. The first preset angle and the second preset angle are respectively 25°-35°, and the first preset angle is smaller than the second preset angle. It should be noted that the first preset axial stiffness is , and the second preset axial stiffness is The assembly interference between the sealing structure and the axial diffuser 11 of the diffuser casing 2 is 0.2-0.5 mm, the axial fit between the sealing structure and the radial diffuser 12 of the diffuser casing 2 is a gap of 0.2-0.2 mm, that is, the second preset distance can be less than or greater than the axial distance between the diffuser casing 2 and the radial diffuser 12; wherein the sealing member 4 is preferably a thin-walled structure with a uniform wall thickness t, the first preset axial stiffness of the sealing member 4 can be controlled by designing the first preset angle, and the second preset axial stiffness can be controlled by designing the second preset angle, the distance L1 between the axial close-fitting edge 43 and the first axial fit edge 41 is greater than the distance L2 between the axial close-fitting edge 43 and the second axial fit edge 45, for example, in a specific embodiment, the distance L1 between the axial close-fitting edge 43 and the first axial fit edge 41 is 3-6 mm, and the distance L2 between the axial close-fitting edge 43 and the second axial fit edge 45 is 1-3 mm, so that the first elastic edge 42 is more easily provided with a bending portion 421 to have a larger axial deformation range and thus ensure that the axial abutting fit is always guaranteed. Based on this, the first preset angle is set to be less than the second preset angle, that is, the first preset axial stiffness is less than the second preset axial stiffness, the main damping effect is provided by the second elastic edge 44, the axial sealing fit is ensured and the secondary damping effect is provided by the first elastic edge 42, and the sealing performance and damping performance of the sealing member are improved.

[0041] In some preferred embodiments, the outer wall of the inlet position of the axial diffuser 11 is provided with a stepped structure 111, the first axial fit edge 41 abuts against the radial edge of the stepped structure 111, the first elastic edge 42 abuts against the inner wall of the diffuser casing 2 in the radial direction, and the end of the first axial fit edge 41 abuts against the axial edge of the stepped structure 111; it should be understood that the bending portion 421 of the first elastic edge 42 can abut against the inner wall of the diffuser casing 2 in the radial direction, by providing the stepped structure 111 on the axial diffuser 11, the radial edge of the stepped structure 111 can be used for abutting against the first axial fit edge 41 in the axial direction, and the axial edge thereof can be used for abutting against the end of the first axial fit edge 41 in the radial direction, thereby realizing radial limiting of the sealing structure, avoiding eccentricity of one side of the sealing ring, and ensuring structural stability.

[0042] In some preferred embodiments, the sealing ring is uniformly distributed with air passage structures 46 in the circumferential direction, and the air passage structures 46 are arranged on the second elastic edge 44. By providing the air passage structures 46, a dead space is avoided in the sealing member 4 after the second axial fit edge 45 abuts against the radial diffuser 12 under axial deformation, and the air passage structures 46 can be circular, elliptical or other shapes of air holes.

[0043] In some preferred embodiments, the first axial fitting edge 41 and the second axial fitting edge 45 are respectively configured as arc-shaped structures. By configuring the two as arc-shaped structures, it can be ensured that when the diffuser is axially deformed, the sealing member 4 can be easily deformed elastically, the axial fitting edges with a certain arc can be easily adapted, close fitting can be ensured, cooperation with the diffuser assembly 1 can be ensured, and the contact area is reduced to avoid scratching when the diffuser is axially deformed.

[0044] On the other hand, the preferred embodiments of the present application also provide a diffuser structure applied with the above sealing structure. The diffuser assembly 1 includes a mounting edge for connecting with the diffuser casing 2. The first end of the mounting edge is connected to the diffuser assembly 1 at a position close to the inlet of the radial diffuser 12. The second end of the mounting edge is provided with a connecting flange for cooperating with the diffuser casing 2, and the connecting is realized by connecting bolts 3. The mounting edge is axially at a third preset angle a3, and the third preset angle is 3-15°. The third preset angle is used to match the axial deformation of the inside of the diffuser structure with the axial deformation of the outside of the diffuser structure. It should be noted that the mounting edge is preferably designed at the inlet position of the radial direction of the diffuser assembly 1. The distribution diameter of the mounting edge is about 1-1.1 times the diameter of the inlet position of the radial diffuser 12. The mounting edge is configured to have a certain angle, i.e. the third preset angle, and the design value is 3-15°. The third preset angle is used to match the axial deformation of the inside of the diffuser structure with the axial deformation of the outside of the diffuser structure, so as to ensure that in the case of existing radial temperature gradient, the axial deformation of the outside and the inside of the diffuser can be matched under the action of the sealing structure and the mounting edge, so as to ensure the coordination of the axial deformation.

[0045] On the other hand, the preferred embodiments of the present application also provide a design method applied to the above diffuser structure, which includes the following contents:

[0050] S105, the deformation result between the diffuser and the seal ring is obtained by joint calculation, and the sealing, damping and deformation matching effects are met;

[0051] S106, the diffuser structure matching the deformation and damping effect is obtained.

[0052] According to the stress and stress distribution generated by the load of the diffuser itself, the deformation matching is met by designing the diffuser mounting structure including the mounting edge diameter and the third preset angle; the S-shaped seal member 4 is designed by the above method, compared with the sealing ring in the prior art which only has a sealing effect, the different stiffness of the upper and lower segments of the S-shaped seal ring plays different damping, sealing and axial deformation adaptation effects, effectively meeting various needs; through joint calculation, it is determined that the above different effects can meet the requirements.
