[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] See also Figure 1-4The utility model provides a technical solution: a new auxiliary tool for installing a heavy-weight impeller nut, including a height-adjusting support plate 100 that can fine-tune the height in the vertical direction according to the thread length of the main shaft; an elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 that can be detachably installed on the height-adjusting support plate 100 to compensate for the offset of the axial center angle of the impeller nut; wherein the impeller nut is placed on the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200, and the impeller nut is brought close to the main shaft by raising the height-adjusting support plate 100, and the axial center angle of the impeller nut is compensated by using the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 so that the impeller nut and the axial center line of the main shaft coincide with each other, and the height-adjusting support plate 100 is further raised to introduce the impeller nut into the starting thread of the main shaft. During installation, the height is fine-tuned by the height-adjusting support plate 100 so that the impeller nut is close to the main shaft, and the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 is used to adjust the height. 00 compensates for the angular difference between the axis centers, making the two axis centers tend to be parallel, effectively avoiding the impeller nut axis and the main shaft axis from being out of center or causing thread damage due to collision, reducing the chance of part damage and effectively reducing rework and repair; by placing the heavy impeller nut on the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200, during installation, there is no need to install it according to the operator's physical strength and feel, reducing the manual lifting action, increasing operational stability, and ensuring the balance of control force. After the impeller nut and the main shaft axis coincide, continue to raise the height adjustment support plate 100 to introduce the impeller nut and the starting thread of the main shaft, which facilitates the alignment of the starting thread and saves time and effort; by installing the auxiliary tooling on the tooling frame, the space under the tooling frame is freed up, reducing the difficulty of operation and improving the efficiency of the entire assembly process.
[0028] Specifically, the height adjustment support plate 100 includes a base 101 that can be installed on the tooling frame, and a mounting cylinder 102 is provided on the base 101, and a lifting cylinder 103 is connected to the fine-threaded inner surface of the mounting cylinder 102, and an annular support plate 104 is provided on the top of the lifting cylinder 103. When in use, the mounting cylinder 102 is driven to rotate by rotating the annular support plate 104, and the mounting cylinder 102 cooperates with the fine-threaded connection of the lifting cylinder 103 to make the annular support plate 104 and the mounting cylinder 102 rise and fall on the base 101, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the height of the auxiliary tooling, effectively avoiding the impeller nut and the main shaft from colliding and causing easy thread damage, reducing the chance of part damage, and effectively reducing rework and repair. At the same time, after the impeller nut and the main shaft center line coincide with each other, the height adjustment support plate 100 continues to be raised to introduce the impeller nut and the starting thread of the main shaft, which is convenient for aligning the starting thread, saving time and effort, and no need to install according to the operator's physical strength and feel, reducing manual lifting actions, and increasing operational stability.
[0029] Specifically, the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 includes an angle adjustment support plate 210 provided above the lifting cylinder 103. The angle adjustment support plate 210 is used to place the impeller nut. An elastic member 220 is provided between the angle adjustment support plate 210 and the bottom of the lifting cylinder 103. The elastic member 220 is used to support the angle adjustment support plate 210. By making the angle adjustment support plate 210 have a compensation function for the axial center angle of the impeller nut, a locking assembly 230 is provided between the top of the elastic member 220 and the angle adjustment support plate 210. The locking assembly 230 is used to lock the top of the elastic member 220 with the impeller nut. The angle adjustment support plate 210 is connected, and a detachable connecting part 240 is provided between the bottom of the elastic member 220 and the bottom of the lifting cylinder 103. The detachable connecting part 240 is used to connect the bottom of the lifting cylinder 103 and the bottom of the elastic member 220. The locking assembly 230 and the detachable connecting part 240 are used to facilitate the operator to disassemble the elastic member 220. Before installation, four elastic members 220 can be selected and replaced according to the weight of the impeller nut. The operation is simple, and the auxiliary tooling can support impeller nuts of different weights, which effectively improves the applicability of the auxiliary tooling.
[0030] Specifically, the locking assembly 230 includes a connecting tube 231 arranged at the bottom of the angle adjustment support plate 210, and a plug-in connecting seat 232 is provided on the top of the elastic member 220. The bottom of the plug-in connecting seat 232 is used to connect with the top of the elastic member 22. A plurality of strip-shaped through-holes 233 are provided on the side wall of the connecting tube 231. A contact plate 234 is rotatably installed at one end of the inner side of the strip through-hole 233. A section of the contact plates 234 away from each other is set as a smooth arc surface. A limit block 235 is provided at the end of the contact plate 234. An annular limit groove 236 is provided on the plug-in connecting seat 232. The outer side of the connecting tube 231 is threadedly connected to an extrusion ring 237. The extrusion surface of the extrusion ring 237 is set as a smooth surface. When installing, first install the top of the elastic member 220 At the bottom of the plug-in connecting seat 232, place the angle adjustment support plate 210, so that the top of the plug-in connecting seat 232 is inserted into the inner side of the connecting tube 231, and the extrusion ring 237 is rotated to move on the outer wall of the connecting tube 231, so that the inner wall of the extrusion ring 237 is in conflict with the outer wall of the contact plate 234, driving the contact plate 234 to rotate. During the rotation of the contact plate 234, the plurality of limit blocks 235 are contracted inward, so that the contact ends of the plurality of limit blocks 235 are in conflict with the annular limit groove 236 for locking. The locking assembly 230 realizes a detachable connection between the angle adjustment support plate 210 and the top of the elastic member 220, which ensures the stability of the angle adjustment support plate 210 while facilitating the operator to disassemble the angle adjustment support plate 210 and the elastic member 220.
[0031] Specifically, the contact end of the limit block 235 is set to an arcuate surface, and the cross-section of the annular limit groove 236 is set to a triangle. When the extrusion ring 237 squeezes the contact plate 234, the contact plate 234 drives the limit block 235 to rotate, so that the arcuate surface of the limit block 235 conflicts with the inclined surface of the annular limit groove 236. In the process of the limit block 235 continuing to move, the arcuate surface of the limit block 235 slides relatively on the inclined surface of the annular limit groove 236, so that the limit block 235 limits the annular limit groove 236 while applying a force to the plug-in connecting seat 232 toward the bottom of the connecting tube 231. The locking effect between the bottom of the angle adjustment support plate 210 and the elastic member 220 is effectively improved through the locking assembly 230, and the locking stability of the locking assembly 230 is improved.
[0032] The detachable connecting portion 240 includes a connecting seat 241 provided at the bottom of the elastic member 220, and the connecting seat 241 is used to connect to the bottom of the elastic member 220. The bottom of the connecting seat 241 is provided with a bolt 242, and the bottom of the lifting cylinder 103 is provided with a threaded opening 243 adapted to the bolt 242. After obtaining the quality of the impeller nut, the operator selects the corresponding elastic member 220 and fixes the elastic member 220 on the connecting seat 241. By rotating the connecting seat 241 and driving the bolt 242 to enter the threaded opening 243 on the lifting cylinder 103, the elastic member 220 is fixedly installed on the lifting cylinder 103. The connecting seat 241 is rotated in the opposite direction and the bolt 242 is disengaged from the threaded opening 243 for removal. The detachable connecting portion 240 facilitates the installation and removal of the elastic member 220, avoids the influence of the operating space when the elastic member 220 is directly installed in the lifting cylinder 103, and improves the accuracy of the force applied to the elastic member 220 after installation.
[0033] Specifically, there are four elastic members 220, which are evenly distributed at the bottom of the angle adjustment support plate 210. The angle adjustment support plate 210 is supported by the four elastic members 220, which effectively improves the uniformity of the specific pressure of the elastic members 220 and ensures the stability of the end face of the angle adjustment support plate 210. During installation, the balance of the controlled force is ensured, and installation is achieved without the need for the operator's physical strength and feel, reducing manual lifting actions and increasing operational stability.
[0034] Specifically, the elastic member 220 is set as a spring, and the four springs are set to the same specifications. At the same time, the four springs have the same length, so that the end face of the angle adjustment support plate 210 is stable. The elastic modulus of the elastic member 220 is selected according to the need to support the weight of the impeller nut. The elastic member 220 is detachable. Before installation, the four elastic members 220 can be selected and replaced according to the weight of the impeller nut. The operation is simple, and the auxiliary tooling can support impeller nuts of different weights, effectively improving the applicability of the auxiliary tooling.
[0035] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, since the ground at the assembly site is not leveled, the hoisting state of the rotor causes an angle between the tooling axis and the main shaft axis due to the difference in the length of the hoisting rope and the hoisting position. This angle prevents the thread from being introduced smoothly. As the height adjustment support plate 100 rises to bring the impeller nut closer to the main shaft, the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 will be tilted by the force of the main shaft. The elastic part 220 of the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 will be deformed under the force, compensating for the angle difference between the axes and making the two axes tend to be parallel. Then, the initial thread introduction is achieved by rotating the height adjustment support plate 100 and the impeller nut itself, and the installation of the impeller nut is successfully completed.
[0036] Working principle: When the utility model is in operation and during installation, the heavy impeller nut is first placed on the elastic fine-tuning support plate 200, and the height adjustment support plate 100 is started to perform height fine-tuning to bring the impeller nut close to the main shaft. The elastic fine-tuning support plate 200 compensates for the angle difference between the axis centers, making the two axis centers tend to be parallel, and the height adjustment support plate 100 is continued to be raised to introduce the impeller nut into the starting thread of the main shaft to achieve starting thread alignment.
