[0002] A water turbine is a power machine that converts the energy of water flow into rotational mechanical energy. It belongs to the turbomachinery in fluid machinery. Most modern water turbines are installed in hydropower stations to drive generators to generate electricity. In a hydropower station, the water in the upstream reservoir is led to the water turbine through a water inlet pipe, which drives the runner of the water turbine to rotate and drives the generator to generate electricity. The water that has done work is then discharged downstream through the tail water pipe. The higher the head and the larger the flow rate, the greater the output power of the water turbine.
[0003] When installing the expansion joint of a water turbine, it is necessary to install sealing rings inside the expansion joint and at the connecting flange. In order to improve the sealing performance between the expansion joint and the connecting pipe, the sizes of some I-shaped sealing rings are matched with the expansion joint. Therefore, when installing, the sealing ring is generally folded and stuffed into the expansion joint. If the sealing ring of the water turbine expansion joint is larger, it is more troublesome to fold the sealing ring, resulting in troublesome installation.
