Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of structural sealing, and specifically to a method for sealing threading holes in a plugging cover of a booster rocket engine. Background Art

[0002] Booster rocket engines are mostly used for target drone launches. Currently, most booster rocket engines are post-ignited, which involves leading out the ignition wire from the nozzle plug. Most booster rocket engine plugs are external structures. The sealing of the plug threading holes has a great impact on the reliability of the overall product. If the sealing is not good or there is leakage, the propellant inside the booster engine will be damp during use or long-term storage, which will cause the performance of the booster rocket engine to fail to meet the standards or even the product to be scrapped. At present, the threading holes of the external aluminum plugs are mainly sealed by applying D03 putty. Disadvantages of the putty sealing method:

[0003] a. It is not easy to operate during sealing and is affected by the operator's proficiency;

[0004] b. Due to the characteristics of D03 putty, it is difficult to apply during use, resulting in poor product appearance quality and requiring multiple cleanings;

[0005] c. Improper operation, easy to leak after long-term storage;

[0006] d.Depending on the different operating conditions of the booster engine (high temperature, low temperature), it is easy to fall off during long-term storage. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a sealing device for the threading hole of a booster rocket engine plugging cover. In view of the shortcomings and disadvantages of the existing methods for threading holes of external aluminum plugging covers, the present invention is aimed at the threading holes of external aluminum plugging covers of booster rockets, and the sealing device is intended to achieve the following purposes:

[0008] a. Easy to operate and install without being affected by human factors;

[0009] b. After installation, the overall appearance of the product will not be affected and the sealing performance meets the technical requirements of the product;

[0010] c. The newly designed sealing structure ensures that the product does not leak during use;

[0011] d. It will not fall off, age or corrode during long-term storage and will not be affected by temperature.

[0012] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is:

[0013] A sealing device for a threading hole of a booster rocket engine plug cover comprises a plug M, a sealing plug and a plug G. The sealing plug is installed in the installation hole of the plug G. The plug M and the plug G are screwed and the sealing plug is squeezed to deform, so as to achieve fastening and sealing.

[0014] It also includes a sealing ring, which is located in a sealing groove on the outer edge of the plug G.

[0015] The plug M and the plug G are connected by threads, and the material of the plug M and the plug G is engineering plastic;

[0016] There are through holes in the center of plug M, sealing plug and plug G to ensure that the cables can pass through smoothly. The diameter of the through hole is 1.05 times the sum of the cable diameters.

[0017] A through hole is provided at the center of the nozzle plugging cover of the engine, and the diameter of the through hole of the nozzle plugging cover is 1.05 times the diameter of the G thread of the plug;

[0018] The sealing plug is made of silicone material to ensure sufficient compression;

[0019] Plug G is a screw structure, and the nut adopts a hexagonal design.

[0020] The inner cavity of the head of the plug M is a nut semi-enclosed structure, which serves as a mounting hole for the sealing plug; the outer surface of the plug M is a hexagonal nut structure for easy installation.

[0021] The sealing plug is in the shape of a truncated cone, and the diameter of the upper bottom surface of the truncated cone is 0.75 to 0.85 times the diameter of the through hole of the plug G, which is convenient for center alignment and improves installation efficiency. The diameter of the lower bottom surface of the truncated cone is 1.15 to 1.25 times the diameter of the through hole of the plug G. The height of the sealing plug is 0.1 mm to 0.2 mm higher than the length of the through hole of the plug G, which is convenient for the plug M to completely squeeze the sealing plug into the installation hole of the plug G and ensure that the sealing plug is effectively deformed to squeeze the cable;

[0022] A sealing groove is provided on the outer edge of the plug G, and a sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove. The material of the sealing ring is nitrile rubber to meet the compression amount. The size of the sealing ring is based on the actual size of the sealing groove of the plug G. The specific selection of the sealing ring refers to the sealing plane rectangular groove sealing structure in QJ2748A-2004 "General Technical Requirements for Sealing Structures of Solid Rocket Engines", and the calculation of the sealing structure size is based on the combination of the groove depth h and the groove width b.

[0023] When sealing, the sealing device of the present invention is installed in the installation hole of the plug G through the sealing plug. The plug M and the plug G are connected by threads. When the sealing device is tightened in cooperation with each other, the sealing plug is squeezed, so that the incoming cable is compressed and deformed together with the plug to achieve the sealing of the internal space. A sealing groove structure is provided on the plug G. When the device is installed as a whole and tightened, the plug G and the outer side surface of the plug cover are squeezed to compress and deform the sealing ring to achieve the sealing of the external space.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] a. Operation degree, greatly improving operability;

[0026] b. In terms of appearance, improve the overall appearance quality of the booster engine;

[0027] c. Eliminate human factors and greatly reduce the risk of air leakage;

[0028] d. Strong reliability and material adaptability improve product reliability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
