[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present application, but not to limit the scope of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In combination with Figure 1 Figure 5 The present embodiment is a manufacturing method of a cover cylinder ring of a heavy-duty gas turbine cover cap assembly, which comprises the following steps:

[0037] Step one: select high-temperature alloy plate and perform mechanical leveling, the high-temperature alloy plate is selected to be GH3536 alloy plate with a thickness of 3 mm, and a leveling device is used for mechanical leveling to control the flatness of the plate to be within 1.5 mm. After leveling, check whether there is scratch or inclusion on the surface, and unqualified plate is removed to ensure the consistency of the coiling basis.

[0038] Step two: perform laser cutting according to the unfolded size of the drawing, and control the width of the heat-affected zone. After cutting, use an angle grinder to lightly grind the spatter and slag, use a hand file to finely repair small holes, keep the edge smooth, and do not damage the surface of the base material. Check the burrs of all cutting edges to ensure that there is no stress concentration source during subsequent coiling.

[0039] ​Along the welding side, a 45° bevel with a 1mm root face is processed, and the consistency of the bevel depth and angle is checked. The oxide scale is lightly ground with a grinding wheel to ensure that the bevel metal is bright. After processing, the bevel is wiped with non-woven fabric and the flatness of the bevel is detected.

[0040] Step three: lay out the drawing and make the corresponding inner arc inner clamp sample plate, the outer periphery of the plate is R71.3, and the center cover cylinder ring curvature is R81.55. Put the plate into the roll forming machine and uniformly roll it in sections. Check the arc once every 50mm during the process, especially adjust the end straight section to ensure the length and straightness are consistent.

[0041] Step four: clean the welding area and clamp the positioning spot welding. Specifically, wipe the bevel and 30mm range with alcohol, use platform compression positioning, spot welding to fix the curvature position, spot welding length 3-5mm, spacing about 40-60mm, evenly distributed to avoid warping.

[0042] Step five: adopt double-sided symmetric segmented argon arc welding process, control heat input to avoid uneven weld shrinkage; use GH3536 welding wire Φ1.6 / 2.0, current 80-110A, argon flow rate 8-15 L / min during welding. Perform symmetric welding process: weld the opposite side first and then the positive side, segment skip welding to reduce heat input concentration, and naturally cool after welding. The weld is polished to the same level as the base material and smoothly transitions.

[0043] Step six: after welding, recheck with the inner clamp sample plate to check the arc and end straight section again, and focus on checking the weld area for no distortion and deviation. If necessary, make appropriate mechanical adjustments. Put the piece into the expansion mold and gradually expand it by uniformly pressing with the press to make the cover cylinder ring as a whole. Focus on monitoring the end straightness and inner diameter distribution during the shaping. After shaping, measure the inner diameter, the outer periphery cover cylinder ring is 143.4±0.1mm, and the center cover cylinder ring is 163.9±0.1mm, and record the size.

[0044] Step seven: finish the inner and outer surfaces and remove impurities. Mainly polish the transition area of the inner and outer surfaces to ensure no burrs and sharp corners, and clean the welding slag and residual particles to complete the appearance inspection.

[0045] Step eight: use standard measuring tools to check the roundness, inner diameter, and end straight section length, and record them in the table to form a batch tracking system. Specific implementation method two

[0047] In combination Figure 1 — Figure 5 In this embodiment, the high-temperature alloy plate in step one is GH3536 high-temperature alloy plate with a thickness of 3mm. After mechanical leveling, the flatness is controlled within 1.5mm. Discard the unqualified plate with scratches or inclusions on the surface.

[0048] The plate is mechanically flattened by a flattening device. During the flattening process, uniform pressure is applied to ensure uniform stress on the plate. After flattening, the flatness of the plate is controlled within 1.5 mm, meeting the basic precision requirements of the subsequent coiling process. After flattening, the surface of the plate is checked piece by piece, and unqualified plates with defects such as scratches, inclusions, and excessive scale are removed to avoid defects affecting the subsequent forming and welding quality and ensure the consistency of raw materials in batch production. Specific implementation method three:

[0050] In combination with Figure 1 — Figure 5 To illustrate this embodiment, the manufacturing method of the cover cylinder ring of the heavy-duty gas turbine cover cap assembly in this embodiment controls the heat-affected zone width in the laser cutting process in step two. After cutting, the spatter and slag at the small holes are polished with an angle grinder, and the small holes are finely polished with a hand file. The cutting edges are thoroughly checked for burrs.

[0051] The flattened plate is cut according to the developed dimensions of the center cover cylinder ring and the peripheral cover cylinder ring. After determining the cutting path, the laser cutting process is used. The laser parameters are controlled to limit the width of the heat-affected zone and prevent the edges of the plate from becoming brittle and deformed due to heat.

[0052] After cutting, the spatter and slag at the cut edges are polished with an angle grinder. For small hole structures on the plate, a hand file is used for fine polishing to ensure smooth and accurate dimensions of the inner wall of the small holes. All cutting edges are thoroughly checked for burrs, and the burrs are removed one by one to avoid stress concentration caused by burrs during the coiling process, affecting the forming accuracy of the cover cylinder ring. Specific implementation method four:

[0054] In combination with Figure 1 — Figure 5 To illustrate this embodiment, the manufacturing method of the cover cylinder ring of the heavy-duty gas turbine cover cap assembly in this embodiment uses a 45° welding groove with a 1mm blunt edge size. After groove processing, the oxide scale is polished to ensure that the groove metal is bright and the flatness is detected.

[0055] A 45° welding groove is machined along the welding side of the plate. The blunt edge size of the groove is strictly controlled to be 1mm. During the machining process, an angle ruler and a caliper are used for step-by-step detection to ensure that the groove angle, depth, and blunt edge size are uniform and consistent without deviation. After groove machining, the groove surface and both sides are lightly polished with a fine-grit grinding wheel to completely remove oxide scale, rust, and oil, making the groove metal surface bright and free of impurities.

[0056] Then, clean non-woven fabric is used to wipe the groove and the surrounding area with alcohol. After completion, the groove flatness is detected to ensure that the groove meets the requirements of the welding pool forming, providing protection for the subsequent welding quality. Specific implementation method five:

[0058] In combination Figure 1 — Figure 5 In this embodiment, the manufacturing method of the heavy-duty gas turbine cover cap assembly cover cylinder ring, the inner clamping template in step three is made of GH3536 alloy, and the arc is checked every 50 mm during the rounding process. The end straight section is adjusted synchronously to ensure the consistency of straightness.

[0059] According to the curvature requirement of the cover cylinder ring, the inner clamping template is made in advance. The corresponding template curvature of the peripheral cover cylinder ring is R71.3, and the corresponding template curvature of the center cover cylinder ring is R81.55. The template material is selected as GH3536 alloy consistent with the workpiece to ensure that there is no temperature difference deformation influence during the checking process.

[0060] Put the processed plate into the rounding machine and use the uniform speed rounding method to form. Every 50 mm interval, use the corresponding size of the inner clamping template to check the arc once, and adjust the rounding machine pressure and feeding speed in real time. Focus on precise adjustment of the end straight section of the plate. Through template comparison and ruler measurement, ensure that the end straight section length is consistent and the straightness meets the standard, avoid excessive deformation of the end, and finally make the overall arc of the cover cylinder ring uniform and meet the design requirements. Specific implementation method six:

[0062] In combination Figure 1 — Figure 5 In this embodiment, the manufacturing method of the heavy-duty gas turbine cover cap assembly cover cylinder ring, the positioning spot welding in step four uses alcohol to clean the groove and the area within 30 mm on both sides before welding. The spot welding length is 3-5 mm, and the interval is 40-60 mm. Through rigid clamp compression positioning, avoid assembly warping.

[0063] Before welding, use alcohol to wipe the welding groove and the area within 30 mm on both sides of the groove. Thoroughly remove oil stains, rust and oxides to ensure that the welding area is clean and free of impurities, and prevent defects such as welding pores and slag inclusion.

[0064] Place the rounded plate on the assembly platform and use a rigid clamp to compress and position. Adjust the docking accuracy of the plate interface to avoid opening seams and misalignment.

[0065] After positioning, uniform spot welding is performed. Spot welding uses GH3536 welding wire, and the spot welding length is controlled at 3-5 mm. The spot welding interval is uniformly set at 40-60 mm. The spot welding points are evenly distributed along the interface. Through spot welding arrangement, the assembly rigidity is enhanced to ensure that the parts maintain a stable geometric structure before welding. Specific implementation method seven:

[0067] In combination Figure 1 —Figure 5 This embodiment describes a method for manufacturing a heavy-duty gas turbine cover assembly ring. In step five, the segmented argon arc welding process uses GH3536 welding wire with a diameter of φ1.6mm or φ2.0mm, a welding current of 80-110A, an argon flow rate of 8-15L / min, and a welding sequence of first the reverse side and then the forward side. Segmented skip welding is used to reduce stress concentration.

[0068] The welding process employs double-sided symmetrical manual argon arc welding. Welding parameters are strictly controlled during the process to ensure uniform heat input distribution and avoid deformation caused by localized heat concentration. The welding sequence uses a segmented skip welding method, alternating between segments to reduce welding stress concentration and lower the risk of twisting and deformation of the cover ring. Welding is performed by first welding the reverse side, then the positive side, ensuring complete weld penetration and eliminating defects such as incomplete penetration or lack of fusion.

[0069] After welding, allow the workpiece to cool naturally to room temperature, then use an angle grinder to grind the weld seam so that it is flush with the base material and has a smooth transition, without any weld seam protrusions or depressions, ensuring that the weld seam strength and surface quality are consistent, and at the same time removing residual stress in the weld seam area.

[0070] After the weld seam is ground, the overall curvature and straight sections of the end of the sleeve ring are re-inspected using the inner template, with a focus on checking for any twisting, misalignment, or other deformation in the weld area. During the re-inspection, the fit between the template and the inner arc surface of the sleeve ring is compared point by point. For areas where the fit is not tight or the curvature deviation exceeds the allowable range, appropriate mechanical adjustments are made using correction tools. Adjustments are made gently and slowly to avoid excessive force that could lead to material fatigue or damage, ensuring that the curvature of the sleeve ring meets the design standards and providing a precise foundation for subsequent bulging and straightening processes. Detailed implementation method eight:

[0072] Combination Figure 1 — Figure 5 This embodiment describes a method for manufacturing a cover ring for a heavy-duty gas turbine cover assembly. In step six, during the bulging and straightening process, a bulging tooling and a press are used to precisely control the bulging pressure and stroke, ensuring that the inner diameter of the outer cover ring reaches 143.4±0.1mm and the inner diameter of the central cover ring reaches 163.9±0.1mm, thus ensuring that the inner diameter accuracy and roundness of the cover ring meet the requirements.

[0073] An expansion forming fixture is used for shaping. This fixture includes an inner expansion block 5, an outer expansion block 6, a guide key, a shaping compression spring, a wedge, a guide plate, and a limiting block. A 3mm cylindrical sleeve is placed between the inner expansion block 5 and the outer expansion block assembly 6. Then, the press presses down on the upper plate 1, causing the four inner expansion blocks to expand outwards simultaneously, achieving the expansion forming purpose. The inner expansion block assembly 5 and the outer expansion block assembly 6 can clamp and position the sleeve to be processed, ensuring direct forming by compression molding, preventing deformation during subsequent longitudinal seam welding, and guaranteeing the roundness of the cylinder. Laser welding is used to weld the longitudinal seam.

[0074] The tooling is made of high-strength alloy to ensure no deformation or wear during the forming process. The re-inspected and qualified sleeve ring is smoothly placed into the bulging tooling. After precise positioning, the tooling is connected to the press. The press applies pressure at a uniform speed, causing the inner and outer bulging blocks of the tooling to work synchronously, ensuring the sleeve ring is uniformly shaped. During the forming process, the straightness of the sleeve ring ends and the inner diameter distribution are closely monitored. The press pressure and speed are adjusted in real time to avoid dimensional deviations caused by excessive localized stress. After the bulging forming is completed, the pressure is slowly released, the sleeve ring is removed, and key dimensions are measured and recorded: the inner diameter of the outer sleeve ring is controlled at 143.4±0.1mm, and the inner diameter of the center sleeve ring is controlled at 163.9±0.1mm, ensuring that the inner diameter accuracy meets the design requirements. Specific implementation method nine:

[0076] Combination Figure 1 — Figure 5 This embodiment describes a method for manufacturing a cover ring for a heavy-duty gas turbine cover assembly. The standard tools in step eight include an inside micrometer, a roundness tester, and a ruler. The test data is entered into a batch tracking table in real time to achieve full-process quality traceability from raw materials to finished products.

[0077] After the bulging and shaping are completed, the inner and outer surfaces and transition area of ​​the cover ring are fully finished. Fine-grit grinding wheels are used to grind the inner and outer surfaces, focusing on cleaning residual weld slag, burrs and sharp corners in the welding area to ensure that the inner and outer surfaces are smooth and flawless, without any sharp protrusions or depressions;

[0078] The cover ring undergoes final precision inspection using standard measuring tools. Inspection items include key indicators such as inner diameter, roundness, end straight section length, and weld flatness. The roundness error must meet the requirement of an assembly gap of <0.3mm. During the inspection process, an inside micrometer is used to measure the inner diameter, a roundness meter to check the roundness, and a ruler to check the end straight section length. Inspection data is recorded for each piece to ensure traceability of the dimensional data for every product.

[0079] Products that pass inspection are stored in batches and batch tracking forms are established simultaneously. Detailed information such as raw material information, processing parameters for each process, testing data, and operator information is entered to form a full-process quality traceability system from raw materials to finished products, ensuring the consistency and traceability of mass-produced products.
