Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the currently commonly used large turbine equipment, the drive unit and the process unit are connected to transmit torque through a coupling. In order to ensure the safety of daily maintenance personnel and prevent turbine machinery, a coupling shield is usually set on the outside of the coupling between the two equipment units. The existing coupling shield is divided into a fixed section and a shifting section. The fixed section is usually connected through a flange surface, and the shifting section is similar to the inner and outer sleeve design. The outer sleeve and the inner sleeve are matched to squeeze the O-ring to prevent lubricating oil leakage and release the thermal expansion of the shield. However, due to the high temperature, vibration, thermal expansion, and air flow inside the shield generated during the operation of the turbine equipment, the lubricating oil is stirred, resulting in a decrease in lubricating oil viscosity and increased permeability. The shield is deformed at high temperature, the O-ring softens due to high temperature, the fit becomes worse, and the sealing reliability is reduced. In addition, since the entire outer shell is closed, it is impossible to intuitively judge the amount of lubricating oil, and it is also impossible to effectively analyze the cause of lubricating oil leakage. Usually, the machine can only be shut down to apply sealant, but due to the inherent structure of the device, the sealing effect is usually not good, and the shutdown also causes waste of manpower and material resources.

[0028] Example

[0029] This embodiment provides a leak-proof visual coupling shield for turbines, such as Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, it comprises an axially penetrating coupling shield body 1, and one end of the coupling shield body 1 is coaxially connected with a bellows 2;

[0030] The coupling shield body 1 includes an upper shield 101 and a lower shield 102 which are detachably connected. The upper shield 101 is a semicircular arc plate. The upper shield 101 and the lower shield 102 are connected by bolts. After being connected, the upper shield 101 and the lower shield 102 form a closed coupling accommodating space for placing the coupling. An oil separator 3 is fixedly provided in the lower shield 102. The oil separator 3 in this embodiment is an arc plate. Both side walls of the arc oil separator 3 are connected to the inner wall of the lower shield 102. A plurality of first oil holes 31 are opened on the oil separator 3. The plurality of first oil holes 31 are arranged in an array.

[0031] An oil return port is provided at the bottom of the lower cover body 102, and the oil return port is connected to an oil return pipe 4. A peephole 6 is provided on the oil return pipe 4. The peephole 6 in this embodiment is made of organic glass. The oil leakage inside the coupling shield body 1 can be checked through the peephole 6, which provides assistance for the operation status or fault assessment of the equipment.

[0032] Preferably, the coupling shield body 1 is an aluminum body. Aluminum can effectively avoid the generation of sparks, is suitable for explosion-proof environments, has high strength and light weight, and is easy to maintain.

[0033] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, both ends of the upper surface of the oil separator 3 are provided with baffles 32 along the axial direction of the coupling shield body. The baffles 32 can hinder the gas flow in the coupling shield body 1 and form airflow disturbance, thereby reducing the agitation of the lubricating oil inside the coupling shield body 1, and preventing the lubricating oil from generating high temperature due to the agitation of the airflow when the coupling rotates at a high speed.

[0034] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, one end of the coupling shield body 1 away from the bellows 2 is coaxially connected to a fan-side metal insulation ring 7 .

[0035] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, one end of the bellows 2 away from the coupling shield body 1 is coaxially connected to a gear-side metal insulation ring 8 .

[0036] The metal heat insulation ring 7 on the fan side and the metal heat insulation ring 8 on the gear side can effectively reduce the heat conduction of the equipment, play the role of heat conduction resistance and sealing and anti-oil leakage.

[0037] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, a ventilation hole is opened on the top of the upper cover body 101, and a ventilation tube 9 is connected to the ventilation hole, and an air filter 10 is arranged on the ventilation tube 9.

[0038] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, the coupling shield body 1 is connected to the bellows 2 through a flange 101. Oil leakage can be completely prevented by using sealant at the connection. At the same time, the bellows 2 has strong axial elasticity and can effectively absorb the axial thermal expansion and deformation of the compensator during the operation of the equipment, thereby ensuring the sealing and disassembly convenience of the coupling shield body 1.

[0039] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, the lower cover body 102 includes a fixed section 1021 and a conical oil outlet section 1022 which are connected and arranged, wherein the configuration of the conical oil outlet section 1022 can greatly improve the oil return speed of the lubricating oil and reduce the residence time of the lubricating oil inside the shield. The fixed section 1021 is connected and arranged with the upper cover body 101, and an oil return port is provided at the bottom end of the conical oil outlet section 1022. After the upper cover body 101, the fixed section 1021 and the oil separator 3 are connected, a cylindrical structure is formed. When the lubricating oil enters the lower cover body 102, it can flow into the oil return pipe 4 through the first oil hole 31. At the same time, the oil separator 3 weakens the influence of the airflow generated by the coupling during the rotation process on the oil below the oil separator 3 in the lower cover body 102 to a certain extent, thereby preventing the lubricating oil from being stirred inside the coupling shield body 1, generating high temperature and oil smoke, and improving safety.

[0040] As a preferred solution of this embodiment, a plurality of second oil holes 51 are arranged at equal intervals on the baffle plate 5 .

[0041] When the utility model is in use, the coupling shield body 1 is arranged on the outside of the coupling. The lubricating oil splashed during the use of the equipment enters the coupling shield body 1, and is quickly collected at the oil outlet with the help of the designed conical oil outlet section 1022, and flows out through the oil return pipe 4 instead of splashing randomly; the bellows 2 has a strong axial elasticity, and effectively absorbs the axial thermal expansion and deformation of the compensator through axial expansion, thereby ensuring the sealing of the coupling shield body 1. When necessary, the oil leakage inside the coupling shield body 1 can be checked with the help of a peephole 6.

[0042] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
