[0002] As a common hydroelectric power generation equipment, the hydroelectric generator set converts water flow energy into mechanical energy and finally into electrical energy. During its operation, the water flow not only provides power for the unit, but also may cause irregular vibration inside the unit, which in turn has an adverse effect on key components such as the frame and bearings. This vibration may be caused by uneven water flow, changes in flow velocity and other external factors.
[0003] The abnormal increase of vibration swing may cause uneven force loading on the mechanical parts inside the unit, resulting in excessive stress and wear of the mechanical system. Especially for key parts such as frames and bearings, long-term high-intensity vibration may cause cracks in the equipment and eventually failure. This failure not only affects the operating efficiency of the hydro-generator unit, but may also cause the breakage of some parts of the unit, causing serious safety hazards and equipment damage.
[0004] The existing method of detecting the vibration of a hydro-turbine generator set is usually to set a vibration sensor on a frame or a bearing, detect the vibration amplitude and vibration frequency of the frame or the bearing through the vibration sensor, and transmit the information to the system of the hydro-turbine generator set, so that the operator can grasp the vibration amplitude and vibration frequency of the frame or the bearing. However, since most of the existing vibration sensors can only sense vibration in one direction, it is difficult to detect vibration in multiple directions, and the detection is not comprehensive and accurate, which affects the operator's judgment on the vibration amplitude and vibration frequency of the frame or the bearing.

This embodiment mainly introduces the hardware system. The hardware system includes a protective shell 4, a water wheel 1, and a main shaft 2. The main shaft 2 is located in the middle of the water wheel 1. The water wheel 1 and the main shaft 2 are both located inside the protective shell 4. In the prior art, one end of the main shaft 2 is connected to the generator, and the water wheel 1 is driven to rotate by the water flow. The main shaft 2 rotates with the water wheel 1, and the main shaft 2 drives the generator to rotate to achieve power generation. The specific process is not repeated in this embodiment.

A fixed opening 36 is provided inside the vibrometer 3, and the fixed opening 36 is used to allow the main shaft 2 to pass through The main shaft 2 is connected with the fixed opening 36 in a sliding manner. The sliding connection can prevent the rotation of the main shaft 2 from driving the vibrometer 3 to rotate, resulting in the inability to effectively measure the vibration. The vibrometer 3 is located inside the protective shell 4, so that the protective shell 4 can protect the vibrometer 3. The vibrometer 3 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 4 to further fix the vibrometer 3. The vibrometer 3 is provided with a plurality of lateral vibration sensors 6 and a plurality of circumferential vibration sensors 7. The lateral vibration sensors 6 and the circumferential vibration sensors 7 are used to measure the vibration of the main shaft 2 and the water wheel 1. The lateral vibration sensors 6 and the circumferential vibration sensors 7 are perpendicular to each other, so that the lateral vibration sensors 6 and the circumferential vibration sensors 7 have different measuring directions, thereby realizing multi-directional vibration measurement. The lateral vibration sensors 6 and the circumferential vibration sensors 7 are arranged in a circle around the vibrometer 3, further realizing multi-directional vibration measurement.
[0023] In this embodiment, the vibrometer 3 includes a fixed shell 30, a fixed block 34, and a plurality of buffer springs 32. The fixed shell 30 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 4. The fixed connection between the fixed shell 30 and the protective shell 4 realizes the fixed connection between the protective shell 4 and the vibrometer 3. The fixed block 34 is located inside the fixed shell 30. The buffer spring 32 is located between the fixed shell 30 and the fixed block 34. The buffer spring 32 is fixed to the fixed shell 30 and the fixed block 34. The buffer springs 32 are arranged circumferentially with the fixed block 34 as the center. The buffer spring 32 can stabilize the position of the fixed block 34 and can also buffer the vibration of the main shaft 2 or the water wheel 1. The fixed opening 36 is located in the middle of the fixed block 34. The lateral vibration sensor 6 and the circumferential vibration sensor 7 are both located on the fixed block 34.
[0024] In this embodiment, a plurality of buffer pads 31 are provided on the surface of the fixed shell 30 facing the fixed block 34. The buffer pads 31 are fixedly connected to the fixed shell 30. The number of the buffer pads 31 is the same as the number of the buffer springs 32. The buffer pads 31 correspond to the buffer springs 32 one by one and are fixedly connected. The buffer pads 31 can further fix the connection between the buffer springs 32 and the fixed shell 30, and can further buffer the vibration of the main shaft 2 or the water wheel 1.
[0025] In this embodiment, the fixing block 34 is provided with spring fixing grooves 33 of the same number as the buffer springs 32, the spring fixing grooves 33 are located on the side of the fixing block 34, the spring fixing grooves 33 are fixedly connected to the fixing block 34, the buffer springs 32 are located in the spring fixing grooves 33, a spring fixing protrusion 35 is provided on the side of the fixing block 34, the spring fixing protrusion 35 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 34, the spring fixing protrusion 35 is located in the middle of the spring fixing groove 33, the buffer spring 32 is located between the spring fixing groove 33 and the spring fixing protrusion 35, the spring fixing groove 33 and the spring fixing protrusion 35 are both used to fix the position of the buffer spring 32, so that the buffer spring 32 can stably play its role.
[0026] In this embodiment, the vibrometer 3 is located at one end of the protective shell 4. The protective shell 4 is provided with a protective cover 5. The protective cover 5 is detachably connected to the protective shell 4. The protective cover 5 is located at the connection end between the protective shell 4 and the vibrometer 3. The protective cover 5 can protect the vibrometer 3 and also facilitate maintenance personnel to maintain the vibrometer 3.
[0027] In this embodiment, each component can be any shape that can achieve the above-mentioned effect, wherein the shapes of the fixed shell 30 and the fixed block 34 are preferably hollow cylinders. The fixed block 34 in the shape of a hollow cylinder can effectively avoid collision with the fixed shell 30 when subjected to severe vibration. If the fixed shell 30 adopts an angular shape, when the fixed block 34 is subjected to severe vibration, its corner may collide with the fixed shell 30, thereby causing damage to the fixed block 34 or the fixed shell 30; the fixed shell 30 is a hollow cylinder, which can not only better connect with the protective shell 4, but also avoid the same angular collision problem as the above-mentioned fixed block 34.
[0028] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: when the main shaft 2 or the water wheel 1 vibrates, the vibration is transmitted to the fixed block 34 through the main shaft 2, and the fixed block 34 vibrates along with the main shaft 2. The lateral vibration sensor 6 and the circumferential vibration sensor 7 detect the vibration and report the detection data to the staff. When vibration occurs, the buffer spring 32 is elastically deformed by the vibration. Through the action of the elastic restoring force, the buffer spring 32 will bring the fixed block 34 back to its original position, and then bring the main shaft 2 back to its original position, thereby reducing the vibration.
[0029] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
