DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
[0032] The drawings show Figure 1 , the drawings show Figure 2 , the drawings show Figure 10 , the drawings show Figure 11 , and the drawings show

[0034] The prior art in offshore generator set fan blade is hoisted and installed, is adjusted hoist angle by lifting cable alone, but due to the common wind and wave of offshore operation, it is difficult to adjust the installation angle of the fan blade due to the lack of rigid connection, and the installation efficiency is low, through the structure, third hydraulic telescopic rod 15 can adjust the inclination angle of hoisting main rod 14, rotating machine 13 realizes horizontal plane angle fine adjustment, lifting lug 16 is connected after crane, forms multi-degree-of-freedom hoisting system, ensures that the fan blade is accurately connected to the hub.
[0035] The drawings show Figure 1 , the drawings show Figure 3 , the drawings show Figure 5 , the drawings show Figure 6 , and the drawings show Figure 7
[0036] The generator fan fixing device 3 comprises a U-shaped frame 31, the opening of the U-shaped frame 31 faces the front of the connecting bridge 1, and the U-shaped frame 31 is internally provided with an adaptive fixing device 32 which can be self-adapted and adjusted according to the thickness of the generator fan, the adaptive fixing device 32 comprises a sliding block 321 which can move up and down on the closed end of the U-shaped frame 31, a three-end sliding rail 322 is fixedly installed on the side of the sliding block 321 close to the opening end of the U-shaped frame 31, the upward end of the three-end sliding rail 322 is slidingly connected with an L-shaped top plate 324, the L-shaped top plate 324 is always attached to the upper end of the U-shaped frame 31, the downward two ends of the three-end sliding rail 322 are slidingly connected with adaptive clamping plates 327, a first hydraulic telescopic rod 323 is arranged at the shaft center of the three-end sliding rail 322, a hexagonal connecting sleeve 325 is fixedly connected with the telescopic end of the first hydraulic telescopic rod 323, and a connecting rod 326 is hinged between the L-shaped top plate 324 and the adaptive clamping plates 327.
[0037] The U-shaped frame 31 comprises a U-shaped frame body 311, the closed end of the U-shaped frame body 311 is provided with a cavity 312 for the sliding block 321 to slide up and down, and the U-shaped frame body 311 is provided with a through groove 313 for the sliding block 321 and the connecting place of the three-end sliding rail 322 to move up and down, and the cavity 312 is provided with a spring for the sliding block 321 to move upward.
[0038] The length of the offshore generator set fan is usually more than 80 meters, in order to balance the stability of the fan hoisting process, the clamping part of the offshore generator set fan is usually closer to the fan root, but the surface between the fan and the fan root is curved, and it is not easy to stably clamp during the clamping process of the traditional hoisting device, and the fan is easily damaged;
[0039] Through the structure, when the first hydraulic telescopic rod 323 pushes the hexagonal connecting sleeve 325, the L-shaped top plate 324 and the three-end sliding rail 322 generate relative displacement, so that the three-end sliding rail 322 and the first hydraulic telescopic rod 323 translate downward as a whole, at the same time, the adaptive clamping plates 327 also move along the two end directions below the three-end sliding rail 322, so as to clamp the fan, since the surface of the fan is usually not completely horizontal, it can be ensured that one of the adaptive clamping plates 327 is in contact with the surface of the fan.
[0040] Combined with the accompanying drawings Figure 3 , the accompanying drawings Figure 6 , the accompanying drawings Figure 7 and the accompanying drawings Figure 8 :
[0041] The adaptive clamping plate 327 is hinged with a roller 328 at the bottom, the bottom of the roller 328 is fixedly installed with a pressing plate 329, there is a gap between the pressing plate 329 and the adaptive clamping plate 327, and the bottom of the adaptive clamping plate 327 is provided with a groove for the rotation of the roller 328.
[0042] The clamping position of the fan blade of the offshore generator set is usually close to the fan blade root, and the fan blade and the fan blade root are curved surfaces. In the clamping process of the traditional lifting device, the fan blade is easily damaged due to the rigid friction between the lifting appliance and the fan blade. Through the structure, when the adaptive clamp plate 327 contacts the curved surface of the fan blade, the roller 328 can rotate freely with the curvature of the fan blade, avoiding rigid friction damage to the fan blade. The gap between the pressing plate 329 and the adaptive clamp plate 327 allows the pressing plate to swing slightly, further adapting to the unevenness of the fan blade surface, and realizing flexible clamping in a stormy environment.
[0043] In combination with the accompanying drawings Figure 3 , the accompanying drawings Figure 4 , the accompanying drawings Figure 5 and the accompanying drawings Figure 9 :
[0044] The bottom of the U-shaped frame 31 is provided with a bottom supporting device 33 which can assist the fan blade of the generator to enter the U-shaped frame 31 and assist the adaptive fixing device 32 to clamp. The bottom supporting device 33 comprises a second hydraulic telescopic rod 334 fixedly installed at the bottom of the closed end of the U-shaped frame body 311. The telescopic end of the second hydraulic telescopic rod 334 is fixedly installed with a first shaft support 333. The first shaft support 333 is hingedly connected with a supporting plate 331. The top of the supporting plate 331 is provided with a pad 332 away from the first shaft support 333. The lower end of the U-shaped frame body 311 is hingedly connected with a roller shaft 314 for sliding of the bottom of the supporting plate 331.
[0045] Since the fan blade of the offshore generator set is relatively large, the existing technology needs multiple operators to cooperate when installing the fan blade into the lifting clamp. After manual fine adjustment, the upper clamp can be started to fix. It is time-consuming and laborious. Through this structure, the second hydraulic telescopic rod 334 pushes the supporting plate 331 to rotate and expand around the roller shaft 314. The pad 332 forms a lifting slope to guide the fan blade to slide into the U-shaped frame 31.
[0046] When the hydraulic rod is retracted, the bottom of the supporting plate 331 is withdrawn along the roller shaft 314, so that the fan blade falls completely into the clamping range of the adaptive fixing device 32. One end of the pad 332 is lifted. At the same time, the clamping force is improved, and the supporting structure is prevented from interfering with the lifting path of the fan blade.
[0047] In the specific implementation of the present application, the lifting lug 16 is connected to the crane hook. The third hydraulic telescopic rod 15 is started to adjust the initial inclination of the lifting main rod 14. The rotating machine 13 is pre-adjusted to the horizontal plane 0° reference position, so as to ensure that the opening direction of the U-shaped frame 31 is opposite to the fan blade conveying path.
[0048] The second hydraulic telescopic rod 334 of the bottom supporting device 33 is started. The supporting plate 331 is pushed to expand around the roller shaft 314 to an inclined state. Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 3At this time, the pad 332 forms a guide slope, the crane slides the bottom of the fan along the slope of the pad 332 into the U-shaped frame 31, and the second hydraulic telescopic rod 334 is started again to pull the support plate 331 to move around the roller 314, at this time, the pad 332 has an upward moving trend until the pad 332 is in contact with the bottom of the fan.
[0049] The first hydraulic telescopic rod 323 is triggered to extend, the hexagonal connecting sleeve 325 is pushed to move forward, the upper connecting rod 326 pulls the L-shaped top plate 324 to abut against the upper end of the U-shaped frame body 311, the three-end slide rail 322 is pressed downward, the self-adaptive clamp plate 327 is synchronously opened along the three-end slide rail 322 until the three-end slide rail 322 is closely attached to the upper surface of the fan, and the clamping force is transmitted to the curved surface of the fan through the pressing plate 329. When the curvature of the surface of the fan is uneven, for example, the curvature difference of the blade root, the roller 328 is adaptively rotated in the groove body, the pressing plate 329 and the self-adaptive clamp plate 327 slightly swing, and local stress concentration is avoided.
[0050] The above describes the present application and its embodiments, which is not limited, and the actual structure is not limited. If a person skilled in the art is inspired by it, without departing from the purpose of the present application, similar structure and embodiments are designed without creativity, which should belong to the protection scope of the present application.
