Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a stirring device structure, in particular to a damaged stirring flange repairing structure. Background Art

[0002] Our company's high-silicon pre-desiliconization agitator tank has a diameter of 10.5 meters and a height of 28.5 meters. The agitator shaft consists of three sections, each with a diameter of 320 mm. The shaft and shaft ends are connected by flanges. The flanges and shaft ends are welded before the equipment is shipped, and their geometric tolerances are strictly controlled. The bolt holes in the flanges are drilled to ensure the overall coaxiality and other requirements of the equipment after installation. However, during operation, due to wear on the bottom bearing seat and resistance from accumulated material, the bolts on the upper flange were subjected to different forces, causing some bolts to shear off and the screw holes to suffer varying degrees of damage. Due to delayed discovery, the agitator shaft, with only two or three bolts connected, continued to oscillate repeatedly. The holes in the flanges were worn through and became elongated, eventually causing the agitator shaft to fall off, resulting in the tank sinking. There are two options for repairing the equipment: one is to purchase a new agitator shaft and reassemble it, which is costly and labor-intensive; the other is to dismantle the old equipment, return it to the factory for repair (due to insufficient machining equipment in the surrounding area), and then reinstall it. This method is time-consuming and expensive. Neither method can ensure timely commissioning of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a structure for repairing a damaged mixing flange.

[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0014] An embodiment of the present utility model: A damaged stirring flange repair structure, comprising two new flanges 1, one new flange 1 is arranged above the original old flange A2, and the other new flange 1 is arranged below the original old flange B3, and a plurality of bolt holes 5 are provided on the new flange 1, which correspond to the hole positions on the original old flange A2 and the original old flange B3. Each new flange 1 is composed of two symmetrically arranged half flanges 4, the upper two half flanges 4 are combined into one new flange 1 and embrace the stirring shaft A7 and are fixedly connected thereto, while the lower two half flanges 4 are combined into one new flange 1 and embrace the stirring shaft B8 and are fixed thereto, and the two new flanges 1, the original old flange A2 and the original old flange B3 are locked and fixed after passing through long bolts 6.

[0015] The new flange 1 is symmetrically cut to form two half flanges 4 , and the cutting line and the bolt hole 5 are staggered to ensure the integrity of the bolt hole 5 .

[0016] The inner hole diameter of the new flange 1 is 10 mm larger than the shaft diameter of the stirring shaft. After the two half flanges 4 are combined into one new flange 1 and the stirring shaft A7 or the stirring shaft B8 is embraced, the inner hole thereof is welded and fixed to the stirring shaft, that is, the upper two half flanges 4 are combined into one new flange 1 and the stirring shaft A7 is embraced, and the inner hole thereof is welded and fixed to the stirring shaft A7, while the lower two half flanges 4 are combined into one new flange 1 and the stirring shaft B8 is embraced, and the inner hole thereof is welded and fixed to the stirring shaft B8, thereby realizing a fixed connection between the new flange 1 and the stirring shaft.

[0017] The new flange 1 is welded and fixed to the adjacent original old flange A2 or original old flange B3, that is, the upper new flange 1 is welded and fixed to the original old flange A2 below it, and the lower new flange 1 is welded and fixed to the original old flange B3 above it, thereby strengthening the connection between the new flange 1 and the original old flange, so that the entire structure is better connected to form a whole.

[0018] The surface of the new flange 1 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft A7 or the stirring shaft B8 via a plurality of ribs 9, that is, the top surface of the upper new flange 1 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft A7 via a plurality of ribs 9, and the bottom surface of the lower new flange 1 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft B8 via a plurality of ribs 9. This structure can strengthen the connection strength between the new flange 1 and the stirring shaft, so that the two are better fixed together, thereby better transmitting torque.

[0019] The utility model is formed based on the idea that firstly, no major disassembly or assembly is required, no large-scale lifting equipment or a large number of disassembly and assembly personnel are used, and the repair is done on site as much as possible; secondly, the shape and position tolerances of the repaired equipment are within the specified range; and thirdly, the repair period is short and the equipment is put into use in a timely manner.

[0020] First, measure the dimensions of the old flanges and fabricate two matching hollow new flanges 1. The aperture of the new flanges 1 is 10mm larger than the agitator shaft diameter. Each new flange 1 is then cut axially into two equal half flanges 4, avoiding the bolt holes 5 (to facilitate installation on the old flanges and securement to the agitator shaft).

[0021] Grind off burrs and raised parts of the old flange to ensure the flatness of the upper and lower joint surfaces of the old flange. Install the processed four half flanges 4 on the upper and lower sides of the two old flanges 2, and pass long screws 6 through the four flanges. Align and tighten them. Spot weld the new and old flanges diagonally. First, fix the new flange 1, then weld them along the circumference and weld them into a whole. Finally, weld the inner hole of the new flange 1 to the stirring shaft to ensure strength and uniform torque transmission, thereby ensuring the equipment operation rate.
