Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of carrier rockets, further belongs to the field of mechanical equipment debugging, and particularly relates to a radial support piston check ring shaping tool. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the face of various sealing structures combined by sealing rings, check rings and wear-resistant rings, in the existing operation process, the AQ seal special conical sealing ring on the piston is difficult to assemble by manual operation due to its hard material, and needs to be knocked into place by a rubber mallet. After the assembly of various sealing elements is completed, a cylindrical metal shaping tool with a fixed size is used to complete the shaping process. Due to the large wrapping force of the inner hole sealing element, violent methods such as knocking or strong pulling are needed to complete the disassembly and assembly of the shaping rod, which may cause surface wear of the metal inner hole and damage to the non-metal sealing element.

[0003] A Chinese patent with application number 201910155321.1 discloses a method and a kit for installing a check ring and a sealing ring on a shaft type member. A limiting element is installed in the sealing element installation groove of the shaft type member. The check ring is sleeved in the sealing element installation groove, and the axial deformation of the check ring is limited by the compression of the end face of the limiting element against the end face of the check ring. A cylindrical shaping element is sleeved outside the check ring, and the check ring is restored to the state before installation by the compression of the inner wall of the shaping element against the outer wall of the check ring. The existing technology has the following disadvantages: the check ring needs to be heated, kept warm, and smeared with lubricating grease during installation, involving many procedures and complex processes. At the same time, when shaping various parts with similar structures and consistent basic sizes but inconsistent compression rates, many specific tools need to be processed according to the size requirements of each installation, and misoperation problems such as wrong tool selection may occur. During assembly and disassembly, the assembly and disassembly process may cause abnormal assembly quality phenomena such as twisting, deflection and rupture of the sealing ring and the check ring due to the interference or gap fit between the installed check ring and the tool. SUMMARY

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a radial support piston check ring shaping tool, which solves the problem of abnormal assembly quality phenomena such as twisting, deflection and rupture of the sealing ring and the check ring during assembly and disassembly due to the interference or gap fit between the installed check ring and the tool.

[0005] The specific technical solutions are as follows:

[0006] A radial support piston check ring shaping tool, comprising a conical pushing rod and a shaping expansion assembly. The shaping expansion assembly comprises an expansion support rod, a shaping expansion block and an elastic protective sleeve. The outer ring surface of the shaping expansion block is attached to the elastic protective sleeve, and the inner ring surface is attached to the expansion support rod.

[0007] The conical pushing rod is pushed to the shaping and expanding assembly to uniformly apply radial force to the expanding support rod.

[0008] The expanding support rod can push the shaping and expanding block to expand to the periphery.

[0009] The shaping and expanding block expands outward, and the elastic protective sleeve is radially stretched.

[0010] The elastic protective sleeve is radially stretched when the shaping and expanding block expands outward, and is retracted inward under the action of its own elasticity after the force disappears; after the elastic protective sleeve is retracted inward, the shaping and expanding block and the expanding support rod return to the original position, the shaping and expanding assembly forms a gap with the shaped part hole, and finally can be taken out from the shaped part hole.

[0011] The diameter of the radially stretched elastic protective sleeve is determined according to the diameter of the tool to be processed.

[0012] The present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) The present application has a certain range of shaping outer circle size, and can complete shaping of various sizes of piston check rings.

[0014] (2) The present application completes installation by applying uniform expanding force through the conical pushing rod, solving the problem of violent installation during installation.

[0015] (3) After the conical pushing rod is withdrawn, the shaping tool and the part form a gap fit, which can ensure that the tool is removed without contacting the part, solving the assembly problems such as torsion and rupture of the sealing ring or check ring caused by violent disassembly.
