[0025] The following combines the attached Figure 1-2 , and clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0026] Embodiment 1

[0027] Referring to Figure 1 , a central alignment device for steam turbine installation includes two identical frames; among them, the frame includes a bearing platform 3 and three telescopic tripods 5.

[0028] Specifically, the bearing platform 3 is a cylindrical structure made of stainless steel, so as to ensure that the bearing platform 3 has sufficient supporting force and is convenient for the installation of the telescopic tripod 5. And the three telescopic tripods 5 are uniformly arranged at the edge of the lower surface of the bearing platform 3 by welding, that is, the included angle between two adjacent telescopic tripods 5 arranged on the lower surface of the bearing platform 3 is 120°. In this embodiment, the number of telescopic tripods 5 is 3 and is made of stainless steel. At the same time, the layout of the telescopic tripods 5 on the bearing platform 3 ensures the stability of the frame; the number of telescopic tripods 5 and the structure of the bearing platform 3 can be adjusted adaptively, and there is no requirement here; finally, the telescopic tripods 5 used in this embodiment can extend outwards, that is, the included angle between the telescopic tripods 5 and the ground can be changed.

[0029] The telescopic tripod 5 in this embodiment has a telescopic function, and an extrusion screw 7 is provided to control the telescopic length of the telescopic tripod 5; by adjusting the lengths of the three telescopic tripods 5, it can ensure that the bearing platform 3 is in a horizontal state, providing a guarantee for the centering of the steam turbine.

[0030] And the bottom end of the telescopic tripod 5 is set as a tip structure, which can specifically be set as a cone, including structures such as a cone and a pyramid; through this setting, the tip structure can still make the bearing platform 3 in a horizontal state through the telescopic tripod 5 in complex scenarios such as uneven ground and potholed roads, improving the stability and application range of the alignment device, and avoiding the problem of the alignment device shaking and being unstable due to the flat structure at the bottom end of the telescopic tripod 5.

[0031] Referring to Figure 1-2, the calibration device further includes a wire adjustment sleeve 1.

[0032] Among them, the wire adjustment sleeve 1 includes a sleeve, a wire, and a wire reel.

[0033] In this embodiment, the sleeve is a cylindrical structure without a bottom surface, hollow inside, and made of aluminum alloy; and the wire reel is a device that can automatically wind the wire, with the same structure and principle as the wire reel in a tape measure. Specifically, the upper and lower circular baffles of the wire reel have the same circular area as the upper surface of the sleeve, so that the wire reel is nested inside the sleeve in a horizontal winding manner, while ensuring that there is a gap between the wire reel shaft in the wire reel and the inner side surface of the sleeve for winding the wire. Figure 1 The wire adjustment sleeve 1 shown in [Figure] is the internal wire and wire reel structure, and a sleeve is provided outside the wire and wire reel structure. At the same time, the lower bottom edge on the side of the sleeve is vertically fixed at the center of the upper surface of the bearing platform 3 in one of the frames by welding or bonding.

[0034] Refer to Figure 1 , the wire is wound on the wire reel, and one end of the wire is fixedly connected to the wire reel by welding or bonding; and a fine hole is provided on the side surface of the sleeve for the wire to pass through the fine hole to reach the outside of the wire adjustment sleeve 1. In order to conveniently access the wire, the end of the wire extending out of the wire adjustment sleeve 1 is set into a circular ring structure, and at the junction of the circular ring structure and the straightened wire, a button structure is set, and it is ensured that the size of the button structure is larger than the fine hole on the side surface of the sleeve, so as to ensure that the circular ring structure is always located outside the wire adjustment sleeve 1, thereby facilitating the access to the wire, and at the same time using the circular ring structure to conveniently fix the wire.

[0035] Through the structure of the wire adjustment sleeve 1, it is convenient to access the wire for the turbine alignment operation during use; after the operation is completed, using the automatic wire winding function of the wire reel, the wire can be retracted into the wire adjustment sleeve 1, which is convenient for the next use, thereby improving the reuse rate of the wire and avoiding the waste of the wire.

[0036] Refer to Figure 1-2 , the calibration device further includes a vertical rod 8 and a wire hook 6.

[0037] Among them, the vertical rod 8 is a cylindrical structure made of aluminum alloy. Since it is used to straighten the wire and does not require too high hardness, using aluminum alloy material is convenient for cost saving; and based on the cylindrical structure of the vertical rod 8, it is convenient for the wire hook 6 to move and be fixed on the vertical rod 8. Specifically, the vertical rod 8 is vertically arranged at the center of the upper surface of the bearing platform 3 in another frame.

[0038] In this embodiment, the wire hook ring 6 is a ring-shaped structure made of aluminum alloy and is nested on the vertical rod 8; a hook is provided on the outer side surface of the wire hook ring 6 for hooking the wire to straighten the wire; at the same time, a pressing screw 7 is provided on the wire hook ring 6 for fastening and nesting the wire hook ring 6 on the vertical rod 8.

[0039] In this embodiment, the length of the vertical rod 8 is greater than the length of the wire adjusting sleeve 1, so as to provide sufficient area for the movement of the wire hook ring 6, thereby ensuring that the wire can be straightened and fixed. Here, the length of the wire adjusting sleeve 1 refers to the height of the sleeve in the wire adjusting sleeve 1, and is also the distance between the top of the sleeve and the upper surface of the bearing platform 3.

[0040] Refer to Figure 1-2 , the calibration device further includes two spirit levels 2 and two laser rangefinders 4; wherein, the two spirit levels 2 are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the bearing platform 3 in the two frames, and the two laser rangefinders 4 are respectively arranged at the centers of the lower surfaces of the bearing platforms 3 in the two frames.

[0041] Specifically, by arranging the spirit level 2 on the bearing platform 3, the bearing platform 3 is ensured to be in a horizontal state, providing guarantee for the centering operation of the steam turbine; and by arranging the laser rangefinder 4 at the center of the lower surface of the bearing platform 3 and ensuring that the angle between the laser emitted by the laser rangefinder 4 and the plane where the bearing platform 3 is located is 90°, the laser rangefinder 4 can be used to measure the distance between the lower surface of the bearing platform 3 and the ground or the supporting surface where the calibration device is placed, so as to ensure that the heights of the bearing platforms 3 in the two frames are the same, further providing guarantee for the centering operation of the steam turbine and improving the accuracy of steam turbine installation.

[0042] Usage steps of the calibration device:

[0043] Step 1: Place the two frames at the corresponding positions, and at the same time make the fine holes on the sleeve in the wire adjusting sleeve 1 and the hooks on the wire hook ring 6 in a relative state.

[0044] Step 2: By adjusting the telescopic state of the telescopic tripod 5 and observing the parameters of the laser rangefinder 4 and the spirit level 2, ensure that the bearing platforms 3 on the two frames are in a horizontal state and at the same height. At the same time, combine the micrometer to ensure that the fine holes on the sleeve in the wire adjusting sleeve 1 are at a suitable height.

[0045] Step 3: After determining the position of the fine hole, use the micrometer to adjust the height of the hook on the wire hook ring 6 to make the height of the hook consistent with that of the fine hole.

[0046] Step 4: Pull the wire in the wire adjusting sleeve 1 and fix it on the hook on the wire hook ring 6.

[0047] Step 5: Check the parameters of the laser rangefinder 4 and the level 2, and use the micrometer to measure the heights of the fine holes and the hooks located on the two frames respectively for the second time; after the parameters are correct, the position of the steel wire at this time is the center line position of the steam turbine, and record it.

[0048] Step 6: Remove the steel wire from the hook, and recycle the steel wire into the steel wire adjusting sleeve 1 to complete the centering operation of the entire steam turbine.

[0049] The steps of using the above calibration device are for a relatively flat ground or support surface. When dealing with a relatively complex uneven or potholed road surface, the level 2 and the telescopic tripod 5 can also be combined to ensure that the bearing platform 3 is in a horizontal state; and devices such as a laser level are combined to ensure that the bearing platforms 3 in the two frames are at the same height.

[0050] Although the specific implementation manners of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it is not a limitation to the protection scope of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that based on the technical solutions of the present invention, various modifications or deformations that can be made without creative labor by those skilled in the art are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
