AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing maze compressors, the double nut connection between the piston rod and the cross head has poor positioning accuracy, which cannot guarantee the coaxiality and perpendicularity, resulting in insufficient reliability of threaded connection during rapid reciprocating movement, which is prone to failure.

Method used

The piston rod is turned into a tapered structure at the tail end and a tapered clamp is set. The tapered clamp is limited to the tapered clamp. It is connected to the step-end stud between the gland flange and the cross head and the lock nut, and combined with the tension spring and the annular groove to achieve a stable connection between the piston rod and the cross head.

Benefits of technology

Through the limit matching of the tapered sleeve and the conical structure of the rear end of the piston rod, the coaxiality and end surface perpendicularity of the piston rod and the cross head are ensured, which significantly improves the stability and reliability of the connection and avoids faults caused by loose threads.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an improved invention of a labyrinth compressor, in particular to an improved invention of a piston rod and a crosshead connection structure for a labyrinth compressor. Background Art

[0002] The connection between the piston rod and the crosshead of the vertical labyrinth piston compressor generally adopts double nut connection. In order to improve the assembly accuracy, the threads need to be ground, which increases the difficulty of processing. In addition, the positioning accuracy of the threads is poor, and the coaxiality and verticality of the connection cannot be well guaranteed. With the rapid reciprocating motion of the piston, the reliability of the threaded connection is a great test. Not only labyrinth compressors, but all kinds of dynamic equipment have cases of failures and accidents caused by loose threads.

[0003] Horizontal compressors also use hydraulic connection, but the prerequisite for hydraulic connection is to make the material undergo spring deformation, which also determines that the size of the piston rod needs to be relatively thin. Therefore, this method is not convenient to implement on vertical labyrinth compressors. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a piston rod and crosshead connection structure for a labyrinth compressor which is easy to install and stable and reliable.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is implemented by adopting the following technical solutions: the piston rod and crosshead connection structure of the labyrinth compressor includes a piston rod and a crosshead, and is characterized in that a connecting groove is provided at the upper end of the crosshead, the rear end of the piston rod is matched and extends into the connecting groove, and the rear end of the piston rod is turned into a conical structure and is sleeved with a conical ferrule, the conical structure is limited to below the conical ferrule, the upper end of the crosshead is connected to a gland flange, the conical ferrule is limited to between the gland flange and the crosshead, and the corresponding gland flange and / or the crosshead are matched with a conical ferrule accommodating groove.

[0006] The conical ferrule is a split structure, and an annular groove is provided on the outer circle of the corresponding conical ferrule, and a tension spring is provided.

[0007] The gland flange and the crosshead are connected by a circle of step-end studs and locking nuts, and elastic washers are sleeved on the step-end studs between the locking nut and the crosshead.

[0008] An adjusting gasket is arranged at the bottom of the connecting groove, and the rear end of the piston rod abuts against the adjusting gasket.

[0009] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that the improved labyrinth compressor piston rod and crosshead connection structure positions the rear end of the piston rod in the connection groove of the crosshead, specifically, a tapered ferrule and a tapered structure at the rear end of the piston rod are mutually limited, and the tapered ferrule is limited on the crosshead by a gland flange, thereby realizing the connection between the piston rod and the crosshead, and a stop is used for positioning, which greatly ensures the coaxiality and end face verticality of the two components.
