[0016] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this invention, the invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides a large-size positioning ring height precision adjustment device, including a base 1, an electric push rod 8 and a lifting assembly; the lifting assembly is installed on the base 1, the lifting assembly is used to adjust the height of the stator unit, and the electric push rod 8 is connected between the lifting assembly and the base 1, and the electric push rod 8 drives the lifting assembly to rise and fall.

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 ,Figure 4 As shown, the lifting assembly includes an outer positioning ring 3, a transmission ring 4, and multiple bullseye wheels 6; a circular guide rail 5 is fixed on the base 1, and the transmission ring 4 is mounted on the precision circular guide rail 5 to achieve rotational mounting of the transmission ring 4 on the base 1. An outer positioning ring 3 is set above the transmission ring 4. The lower end face of the outer positioning ring 3 is provided with 6 evenly distributed segmented lifting surfaces 301 (a type of surface where several planes of different heights are connected by a spiral surface). 6 bullseye wheels 6 are arranged between the transmission ring 4 and the outer positioning ring 3. The 6 bullseye wheels 6 correspond to the 6 lifting surfaces 301 on the outer positioning ring 3 and are rolled together. The electric push rod 8 pushes the transmission ring 4 to rotate.

[0019] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the extension and retraction direction of the electric push rod 8 is consistent with the tangential direction of the transmission ring 4.

[0020] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, a cylindrical pin is provided on the edge of the transmission ring 4 and inserted into the hole on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 8, and it is hinged to the hole of the electric push rod 8. The fixed end of the electric push rod 8 is installed on the base 1.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, four guide holes 302 are evenly distributed on the outer edge of the outer positioning ring 3. Guide holes 2 are opened on the base 1 at the positions corresponding to the guide holes 302. The same guide post and guide sleeve assembly 7 is installed in each guide hole 302 and the corresponding guide hole 2, so that the outer positioning ring 3 can slide up and down along the guide post and ensure that the center does not deviate.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, an inner positioning ring 2 is concentrically arranged inside the outer positioning ring 3, and the inner positioning ring 2 is fixed on the base 1.

[0023] The low-pressure turbine stator unit is divided into two parts: the rotor unit and the stator unit. The rotor unit is installed on the inner positioning ring 2, and the stator unit is installed on the outer positioning ring 3. The height of the outer positioning ring 3 needs to be adjusted during the assembly process.

[0024] The working process is as follows: the electric push rod 8 can be controlled to push and pull the transmission ring 4 along the tangential direction of the transmission ring 4 to rotate. The transmission ring 4 drives the six bullseye wheels 6 to rotate synchronously on the six segmented spiral surfaces 301 of the outer positioning ring 3, thereby driving the outer positioning ring 3 to rise and fall precisely.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown, a metal sensing pointer 9 is installed on the outside of the transmission ring 4, and a metal sensing proximity switch 10 is installed on the base 1. The metal sensing proximity switch 10 is used in conjunction with the metal sensing pointer 9 and can provide signal feedback at a specified height to indicate the current height position to the operator or control the start and stop of the electric push rod 8.
