Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of gas turbine coupling disassembly technology, and in particular to a disassembly tooling for gas turbine couplings. Background Technology
[0002] The coupling in a gas turbine is a key component connecting the gas turbine rotor and the generator rotor. Its main function is to efficiently and reliably transmit enormous rotational torque. It not only ensures that power can be smoothly delivered from the gas turbine to the generator, realizing the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy, but also effectively compensates for the small axial, radial, and angular displacements between the two shafts caused by thermal expansion, installation errors, and foundation deformation.
[0003] In actual production processes, the assembly, testing, and maintenance of couplings often require frequent disassembly. Because the coupling and motor shaft are fitted with an interference fit, disassembly is difficult, and in the past, manual disassembly was commonly used. This method often damages the coupling, has low efficiency, and risks damaging the contact surfaces between the motor shaft and the coupling, potentially rendering the motor shaft unusable.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a disassembly fixture for gas turbine couplings. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing production technology, the applicant provides a disassembly fixture for gas turbine couplings, which can disassemble the motor shaft and coupling by simply applying pressure with a hydraulic jack, resulting in high disassembly efficiency.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: A disassembly fixture for a gas turbine coupling, wherein the coupling and the motor shaft are interference-fitted, and a groove is provided between the coupling and the motor shaft; the disassembly fixture includes: The top support plate has through holes; The hydraulic jack is placed on the top support plate and has a hollow hole. The threaded connection top piece is placed on the hydraulic jack, and the bottom of the threaded connection top piece passes through the hollow hole of the hydraulic jack and the through hole of the top support plate. The motor shaft clamp connecting pin is placed on the motor shaft; Motor shaft clamp, fixing post motor shaft and motor shaft clamp connecting pin; The bottom clamping plate includes two semi-circular clamping plates, each of which is provided with a semi-circular hole. The two semi-circular holes form a circular hole. The inner wall of the circular hole is provided with an annular protrusion, which is embedded in the groove between the coupling and the motor shaft. The two semi-circular clamping plates are fixed by bolts. The motor shaft clamping pin is threadedly connected to the threaded top piece; the top support plate and the bottom clamping plate are fixedly connected by screws.
[0007] Its further features are: The threaded connection top piece is T-shaped, and the motor shaft clamp connecting pin is inverted T-shaped.
[0008] The bottom of the threaded connection top piece is provided with an internal threaded hole, and the top of the motor shaft clamp connecting pin is provided with an external thread that matches the internal threaded hole.
[0009] The motor shaft clamp includes two semi-cylindrical clamps, which are fixed together by bolts. The top of each semi-cylindrical clamp has a through hole, and the inside of each semi-cylindrical clamp has a clamping cavity. The through hole communicates with the clamping cavity.
[0010] The semi-cylindrical clamp has multiple grooves in its clamping slot, and washers are placed in the grooves to prevent damage to the motor shaft during clamping.
[0011] The screw is fixedly connected to the top support plate and the bottom clamping plate by a fixing nut.
[0012] The screw is provided in three parts, and the top support plate and the bottom clamping plate are each provided with three openings for connecting the screw.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: This application features a compact and reasonable structure, and is easy to operate. The hydraulic jack is placed on the top support plate, and the threaded connecting top piece is placed on the hydraulic jack. The motor shaft clamping pin is placed on the motor shaft. The two semi-cylindrical clamps of the motor shaft clamp hold the motor shaft and the motor shaft clamping pin, and are secured with bolts to fix the two semi-cylindrical clamps, thus fixing the motor shaft. Then, the motor shaft clamping pin is threadedly connected to the threaded connecting top piece. The annular protrusions on the two semi-circular clamps of the bottom clamp clamp the groove between the coupling and the motor shaft, and are secured with bolts. The screw is fixedly connected to the top support plate and the bottom clamp via fixing nuts. The hydraulic jack extends, and one end of the hydraulic jack drives the motor shaft to move through the threaded connecting top piece, the motor shaft clamping pin, and the motor shaft clamp. The other end of the hydraulic jack drives the coupling to move through the top support plate, the screw, and the bottom clamp. The motor shaft and the coupling move in opposite directions, allowing for quick separation of the motor shaft and the coupling using the hydraulic jack. The motor shaft and coupling can be disassembled using only hydraulic jacks to provide pressure, resulting in high disassembly efficiency.
[0014] In addition, this application also has the following advantages: (1) The stability and safety of the disassembly tool are improved by the screw and fixing nut between the top support plate and the bottom clamping plate.
[0015] (2) The disassembly force is distributed on each component of the gas turbine coupling disassembly fixture, which effectively avoids damage to the motor shaft during disassembly and reduces the loss rate. Attached Figure Description

[0030] In one embodiment, three screws 6 are provided, and the top support plate 3 and the bottom clamping plate 7 are each provided with three openings for connecting the screws 6.
[0031] The coupling 9 and the motor shaft 10 are interference-fitted, and there is a groove between the coupling 9 and the motor shaft 10.
