Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ship detection, in particular to a ship sleeve rudder structure. Background Art

[0002] In the underwater inspection of the ship's sleeve rudder structure, the measurement of the gap between the bushing on the inside of the rudder sleeve and the sleeve on the outside of the rudder shaft is an important inspection item. The rudder shaft is inserted into the rudder sleeve, and the gap between the sleeve on the rudder shaft and the bushing on the inside of the rudder sleeve needs to be measured. According to the requirements of the classification regulations, if the bushing is made of non-metallic material, the gap between the bushing and the sleeve cannot be less than 1.5mm to ensure that there is still enough rotational clearance between the bushing and the sleeve after the non-metallic material expands in water. At the same time, the gap between the bushing and the sleeve cannot be too large. The gap between the bushing and the sleeve needs to be controlled within 2.5mm. If the gap exceeds 5mm after the ship is put into operation, the bushing needs to be replaced to ensure the safe operation of the entire rudder system and the strength of each component of the rudder system.

[0003] The oil-lubricated bushing is an installation form of the ship's sleeve rudder structure. Oil is filled between the bushing and the shaft sleeve, and a skeleton sealing ring is installed on the lower side of the matching point between the bushing and the shaft sleeve to prevent oil leakage. In order to avoid the oil leaking into the sea water, the gap between the bushing and the shaft sleeve cannot be detected underwater. Under the existing technology, if it is necessary to detect the gap between the bushing and the shaft sleeve, the ship needs to be driven into the dock, the skeleton sealing ring is taken out, and then measured with a feeler gauge. After the measurement is completed, oil is poured again, and the skeleton sealing ring is used to seal the oil into the gap between the bushing and the shaft sleeve. However, it takes a long time to disassemble, inspect and repair the ship when it enters the dock, and the gap between the bushing and the shaft sleeve needs to be inspected frequently, which will shorten the operating time of the ship and cause economic losses.

A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0022] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "right", etc., are based on the directions or positions shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplified operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0023] Under the existing technology, when inspecting the oil-lubricated clearance of a ship's sleeve rudder structure, it is necessary to drive the ship into the dock, drain the seawater, take out the sealing frame, drain the oil, and then conduct a clearance inspection. This detection cycle is relatively long. If the ship is frequently docked, the operating time of the ship will be shortened, increasing economic losses.

[0024] In order to solve the above problems, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model provides a ship sleeve rudder structure, including a steering gear 1, the steering gear 1 drives the rudder stock 2 to rotate, the rudder stock 2 drives the rudder blade 3 to rotate, the rudder blade 3 is formed with a plug-in portion 31, the rudder stock 2 is arranged in the plug-in portion 31, a hand hole 311 is opened on the side wall of the plug-in portion 31, a rudder sleeve 7 is sleeved on the outer side of the rudder stock 2, the rudder sleeve 7 is arranged in the plug-in portion 31, a bushing 5 is installed in the rudder sleeve 7, a shaft sleeve 4 is sleeved on the rudder stock 2, a lubricating oil is arranged between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4, and a lubricating oil is provided on the bushing 5. A first through hole 51 is provided, and a second through hole 71 is provided on the rudder sleeve 7. The first through hole 51 is communicated with the second through hole 71, and the axes of the first through hole 51 and the second through hole 71 coincide with each other. A feeler gauge 9 can be inserted into the first through hole 51 and the second through hole 71, and the top end of the feeler gauge 9 is inserted into the gap between the sleeve 4 and the bushing 5. A thread is provided at one end of the second through hole 71 away from the rudder stock 2, and a screw plug 8 is screwed into the thread; the hand hole 311 can rotate with the rudder blade 3 to the end of the second through hole 71 away from the rudder stock 2.

[0025] When performing the gap detection, the ship does not need to enter the dock. The diver can go into the water to detect it with a feeler gauge 9. Since oil is filled between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4, in order to avoid oil leakage, a skeleton sealing ring 6 is installed at the bottom of the gap between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4. By rotating the rudder blade 3, the hand hole 311 on the rudder blade 3 is rotated to the side of the opening position of the second through hole 71. The diver can wipe off the epoxy resin on the screw plug 8 through the hand hole 311, then unscrew the screw plug 8, and insert the feeler gauge 9 into the first through hole 51 along the second through hole 71. Then, the detection end 91 of the feeler gauge 9 will reach the gap between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4. The feeler gauge 9 generally includes multiple detection pieces with different thicknesses, so that the size of the gap can be tested. Then, the feeler gauge 9 is taken out, the screw plug 8 is screwed in, and epoxy resin is applied again. This can avoid leakage of oil between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4. A ship adopting the ship sleeve rudder structure of the utility model can detect the gap between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4 at any time or place. The diver can perform the detection after entering the water, and the ship does not need to enter the dock for detection, which can extend the ship's operating time and reduce economic losses. At the same time, the provision of the screw plug 8 can prevent the lubricating oil between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4 from leaking.

[0026] The feeler gauge 9 used in the present invention is a prior art and is not described in detail herein. A rubber round plug 92 is installed on the portion of the feeler gauge 9 extending into the second through hole 71. The rubber round plug 92 can be plugged on the second through hole 71 to prevent the lubricating oil between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4 from leaking out.

[0027] The hand hole 311 of the utility model is semicircular, and the radius of the hand hole 311 is 250mm to 300mm, so that the hand can be easily inserted into the hand hole 311, and the wrist can flexibly control the direction of the detection end 91 of the feeler gauge 9. The edge of the hand hole 311 is chamfered to prevent the diver's arm from being cut, thereby increasing safety.

[0028] The junction between the screw plug 8 and the rudder sleeve 7 is coated with epoxy resin, which can prevent the lubricating oil from leaking to the outside when the ship is sailing, and can maintain the lubrication between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4 for a long time.

[0029] The first through holes 51 and the second through holes 71 correspond one to one, four groups of first through holes 51 are provided, and four groups of second through holes 71 are provided. Two groups of first through holes 51 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the longitudinal axis of the ship, and the angle between the axis of the first through hole 51 and the longitudinal axis of the ship is 45°.

[0030] When the rudder blade 3 of the ship is not rotated, the whole is aligned with the length direction of the ship. At this time, the screw plug 8 is located inside the plug-in portion 31 and is not exposed from the hand hole 311. This can avoid the impact of seawater and reduce the probability of epoxy resin falling off. When the rudder blade 3 rotates and the screw plug 8 is exposed, the diver can disassemble and assemble the screw plug 8 along the hand hole 311.

[0031] By arranging four groups of first through holes 51 circumferentially around the rudder bar 2, comprehensive inspection can be performed on different positions of the annular gap between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4. When one of the gaps is not in compliance, it can be replaced in time to improve the accuracy of the inspection.

[0032] The hand holes 311 include two groups, and the hand holes 311 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the symmetric axis in the length direction of the ship. When the rudder blade 3 is fully steered to the left or right, the two groups of second through holes 71 on one side of the axis in the length direction of the ship can be exposed under the hand holes 311 on the same side, and the diver can remove the screw plug 8, so that the gap size between the bushing 5 and the shaft sleeve 4 at different positions can be detected, thereby improving the accuracy of the gap detection.

[0033] The feeler gauge 9 is a thin sheet structure, and the angle formed by the axis of the first through hole 51 and the axis of the rudder stock 2 is an acute angle. After the feeler gauge 9 enters, the feeler gauge 9 abuts against the surface of the sleeve 4. After the feeler gauge 9 is bent, it is pushed into the gap between the sleeve 5 and the sleeve 4. The above-mentioned acute angle structure makes it easy to bend the front end of the feeler gauge 9, making the detection more labor-saving and convenient for the diver to operate.

[0034] The diameter of the first through hole 51 of the utility model is 8-10 mm, and the diameter of the second through hole 71 is 8-10 mm. The diameters of the first through hole 51 and the second through hole 71 can accommodate feeler gauges 9 of all specifications, which is convenient for gap detection.

[0035] An expanded hole 72 is provided at one end of the second through hole 71 of the utility model away from the axis of the rudder stock 2. The diameter of the expanded hole 72 is larger than that of the second through hole 71. A gasket is laid at the bottom of the expanded hole 72. A thread is formed on the side wall of the expanded hole 72. The screw plug 8 is screwed into the expanded hole 72 and abuts against the gasket. By providing the gasket, the screw plug 8 can have a stronger ability to be screwed and sealed, thereby preventing the intrusion of external seawater when the ship is sailing normally.

[0036] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to list all implementation methods here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
