Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of disassembly of aviation auxiliary power devices, in particular to a tool for disassembling a secondary turbine rotor and a connecting shaft of an auxiliary power device. Background Art
[0002] During the maintenance of an auxiliary power unit (APU), disassembly often presents a series of challenges, especially when dealing with the hot end components of the power section. Separating the second-stage turbine rotor from its connecting shaft is particularly challenging because these components are subjected to high temperatures during APU operation, leading to metal-to-metal adhesion and rendering traditional disassembly methods ineffective.
[0003] In the precision mechanical structure of an APU, the secondary turbine rotor and connecting shaft are tightly coupled via end teeth to ensure efficient power transmission. However, this tight meshing, exposed to high temperatures for extended periods, can lead to metal adhesion between the end teeth, a common phenomenon in aviation maintenance. When metal adhesion occurs, traditional methods such as knocking or prying are not only inefficient but also highly likely to damage the connecting shaft, compromising repair efficiency and potentially impacting APU performance in the long term. Utility Model Content

[0005] A tool for disassembling the secondary turbine rotor and connecting shaft of an auxiliary power unit includes a base, which is a disc structure with three steps. A fixing screw is vertically arranged at the center of the base, an outer ring support is arranged above the base, a threaded column is arranged at the center of the inner side of the outer ring support, a connecting piece is fixedly arranged below the threaded column, a fixing ring is arranged below the connecting piece, and a locking block is arranged inside the fixing ring.
[0006] Furthermore, a washer is provided on the fixing screw.
[0007] Furthermore, the outer ring support is an inverted cylindrical barrel structure with rectangular grooves symmetrically opened on the bottom.
