Description

Technical field:

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of water turbine generators, and in particular relates to a maintenance and grinding device for thrust bearings of water turbine generators. Background technology:

[0002] The thrust bearing is one of the key components of the turbine unit. It is mainly used to balance the residual axial thrust of the unit and determine the dead point of rotor expansion, to ensure the axial clearance between the moving and static blades, thereby preventing dynamic and static friction and collision of the turbine. If the thrust bearing is worn, it will seriously affect the normal operation of the turbine.

[0003] The thrust bearing of the turbine will have different degrees of wear during use. The main reasons are as follows: First, during the normal operation or start-stop process of the turbine, the bearing lubricating oil is suddenly interrupted or the lubricating oil deteriorates, so that the bearing oil film cannot be established or is destroyed, resulting in bearing damage; second, due to debris in the bearing, the center offset of the shaft system, etc., dynamic and static friction occurs between the rotating shaft and the bearing, resulting in bearing damage. During the maintenance of the thrust bearing, it is usually necessary to manually grind the worn surface of the thrust bearing flat, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, the surfaces on both sides of the thrust bearing cannot be ground at the same time during manual grinding, which makes the grinding efficiency of the thrust bearing low, and the manual grinding force cannot be kept uniform, resulting in the thrust bearing surface not being ground flat enough, affecting the maintenance speed of the turbine.

[0007] Furthermore, hand wheels are coaxially mounted on both ends of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0009] Furthermore, a screw hole is opened on the circumferential surface of the rotating wheel, the screw hole is communicated with the through groove, a top screw is screwed in the screw hole, and the top screw is used to reinforce the thrust washer.

[0010] Furthermore, a through opening matching the rotating wheel is opened on the top wall of the inspection platform, and the bottom end of the rotating wheel extends into the inner cavity of the inspection platform through the through opening.

[0011] Furthermore, a slag cleaning port is provided on the side wall of the inspection platform, and a switch door is installed on the slag cleaning port.

[0018] like Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, a hydraulic generator thrust bearing maintenance grinding device comprises a runner 1, a through slot 2 is provided on the cross section of the runner 1, a thrust bearing 3 is matched and installed in the through slot 2, a rotating shaft 4 is coaxially installed on the runner 1, and both ends of the rotating shaft 4 are rotatably connected to the bearing seat 5, the bearing seat 5 is installed on the top wall of the maintenance platform 6, one end of the rotating shaft 4 is transmission-connected to the driving motor 7, and the driving motor 7 is installed on the top wall of the maintenance platform 6, grinding blocks 8 are arranged on both sides of the runner 1, and the grinding blocks 8 are connected to the grinding and debugging components, and the grinding blocks 8 are used to uniformly grind the side of the thrust bearing 3. Wall, the grinding and debugging assembly includes a concave plate 9, which is installed on the top wall of the inspection platform 6, and a bidirectional screw 10 is arranged in the groove of the concave plate 9, and the two ends of the bidirectional screw 10 are rotatably connected to the two side walls of the concave plate 9, and support arms 11 are transmission-connected to the two sections of the thread of the bidirectional screw 10, and the inner end cross-section of the support arm 11 is slidably fitted in the groove of the concave plate 9, and the outer end of the support arm 11 is fixedly connected to the grinding block 8, and hand wheels 12 are coaxially installed at both ends of the bidirectional screw 10, and a plurality of through grooves 2 are evenly opened on the cross-section of the rotating wheel 1.

At this time, the driving motor 7 is started to drive the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 4 drives the rotating wheel 1 to select. At this time, the grinding blocks 8 set on both sides of the rotating wheel 1 evenly grind the two side walls of the thrust washers 3; before grinding, the hand wheel 12 can be rotated to make the two support arms 11 driven on the bidirectional screw 10 approach or move away from each other, thereby adjusting the pressure applied by the grinding block 8 to the thrust washers 3 to adjust the grinding force. For example, when the surface of the grinding block 8 is severely worn, the two support arms 11 can be brought close to each other, so that the pressure applied by the grinding block 8 to the thrust washers 3 is increased, thereby improving the grinding effect.

[0022] Specifically, the grinding debris can be dropped into the inner cavity of the maintenance platform 6 through the opening 14 for centralized storage, thus avoiding pollution of the working environment.

[0023] During actual use, the rotating top screw 13 can fix the thrust washer 3 placed in the through groove 2; the debris generated during the grinding process falls into the inner cavity of the maintenance table 6 through the through opening 14 for centralized storage, and the accumulated debris can be cleared away by opening the switch door 15; during the grinding process, the arc-shaped protective cover 16 can prevent the debris from splashing randomly, thereby protecting on-site workers from injury.
