DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] The utility model provides: a locking device for a centrifugal compressor impeller, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a compressor impeller 1, a nut sleeve 2, a protective column 3 and a mounting column 7, the compressor impeller 1 is fixedly mounted on the outer arc surface of the mounting column 7, the nut sleeve 2 is rotatably sleeved on the outer arc surface of the protective column 3, a connecting column 11 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting column 7 close to the nut sleeve 2, and a locking component for increasing different locking forces is arranged inside the protective column 3;

[0024] The locking assembly includes a connecting double column 15, which is fixedly installed on one end of the connecting column 11 away from the mounting column 7. An auxiliary assembly for assisting the locking of the connecting column 11 is provided on the upper surface of the connecting double column 15. By fixing the compressor impeller 1 on the outer arc surface of the mounting column 7 and fixing the connecting column 11 to the mounting column 7, different locking forces are applied to the connecting column 11, that is, different locking forces are applied to the compressor impeller 1.

[0025] Preferably, the locking assembly also includes a conical sleeve 12 and a clamping column 16, and the clamping column 16 is fixedly installed at one end of the conical sleeve 12 close to the mounting column 7. A movable opening corresponding to the connecting column 11 is opened through the side of the clamping column 16, and a plurality of groups of notches 13 are opened on the outer arc surface of the conical sleeve 12 and the clamping column 16. The connecting column 11 and the connecting double column 15 are inserted into the conical sleeve 12 through the movable opening, and the notches 13 are arranged so that the conical sleeve 12 and the clamping column 16 can expand and reduce the diameter of the movable opening, and when the diameter of the movable opening is the largest, it is consistent with the diameter of the connecting column 11, thereby ensuring that the connecting column 11 can be inserted into the conical sleeve 12 along the movable opening.

[0026] It is worth mentioning that a top column 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the nut sleeve 2 near the mounting column 7, and a plug-in port 9 corresponding to the connecting column 11 is opened on the side of the top column 8, and the diameter of the plug-in port 9 is consistent with the diameter of the connecting column 11, thereby ensuring that the connecting column 11 is inserted into the nut sleeve 2 along the plug-in port 9, and enters the inside of the truncated cone sleeve 12 through the movable opening, and when the nut sleeve 2 moves along the outer arc surface of the protective column 3 close to the connecting shaft 4, the nut sleeve 2 will squeeze the truncated cone sleeve 12 through the top column 8, and the truncated cone sleeve 12 gradually enters the inside of the protective column 3, because the truncated cone sleeve 12 is set to be truncated cone-shaped, and the end located inside the protective column 3 is the end with a smaller diameter, and the diameter opened on the side of the protective column 3 is consistent with the middle diameter of the truncated cone sleeve 12, so that when the truncated cone sleeve 12 gradually enters the inside of the protective column 3, the truncated cone sleeve 12 will be gradually clamped by the protective column 3, thereby gradually clamping the clamping column 16, and then the clamping column 16 applies a gradually increasing locking force on the connecting column 11.

[0027] Furthermore, an internal thread 10 is provided on the inner wall of the nut sleeve 2, and an external thread 14 corresponding to the internal thread 10 is provided on the outer surface of the protective column 3. When the nut sleeve 2 is rotated, the internal internal thread 10 is connected to the external external thread 14 of the protective column 3, so that different locking forces can be applied to the connecting column 11 by rotating the nut sleeve 2, and after the connecting column 11 is locked, the nut sleeve 2 is fixed under the action of the internal thread 10 and the external thread 14, thereby avoiding a reduction in the locking force of the connecting column 11.

[0028] Furthermore, the auxiliary component includes a clamping bolt 6, the thread of which passes through the outer arc surface of the protective column 3, and the bottom surface of the clamping bolt 6 contacts the upper surface of the connecting double column 15. By rotating the clamping bolt 6, the clamping bolt 6 is inserted into the interior of the protective column 3 through the thread, and the clamping bolt 6 gradually contacts the connecting double column 15, thereby applying another set of locking force to the connecting double column 15 through the clamping bolt 6.

[0029] Specifically, the truncated cone sleeve 12 is slidably arranged inside the protective column 3, and the inner wall of the protective column 3 is provided with a snap-in groove corresponding to the connecting double column 15. When the connecting column 11 and the connecting double column 15 are inserted into the truncated cone sleeve 12, the end of the connecting double column 15 away from the connecting column 11 is snapped into the snap-in groove inside the protective column 3, thereby auxiliary fixing the connecting double column 15 and ensuring that the connecting double column 15 is always in a parallel state.

[0030] In addition, a connecting shaft 4 is fixedly installed on one end of the protective column 3 away from the nut sleeve 2, and a coupling 5 is keyed to the other end of the connecting shaft 4. The overall device is connected to the coupling 5 through the connecting shaft 4, and is keyed to the output shaft of the compressor through the coupling 5.

[0031] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
