Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lifting device technology, specifically a tooling for lifting the upper cover of a steam turbine bearing. Background Technology
[0002] During the manufacturing and subsequent maintenance of steam turbines, it is necessary to lift the turbine bearing cover body. However, due to the special shape and large weight of the bearing cover body, and the fact that the split surface of the existing steam turbine bearing is designed to be located under the turbine diffuser plate, the side of the turbine diffuser plate interferes with the wire rope when the bearing cover body is lifted, making it impossible to assemble the bearing cover body onto the bearing. Therefore, special tooling is required to lift the steam turbine bearing cover body.
[0003] In the prior art, the utility model patent with patent number CN202322189430.X discloses a lifting device for disassembling and assembling the upper cover of a steam turbine rear bearing housing, including a second lifting workpiece. The two ends of the second lifting workpiece are respectively provided with a first lifting workpiece and a third lifting workpiece. The first lifting workpiece and the third lifting workpiece are arranged in parallel. The two ends of the second lifting workpiece are respectively welded to one end of the first lifting workpiece and the third lifting workpiece with a second reinforcing rib.
[0004] The lifting device provided by the aforementioned patent connects the first lifting workpiece to the third lifting workpiece using a steel wire rope. The first lifting workpiece's lifting lugs then lift the bearing housing cover. Only two people are required to complete the disassembly and lifting work: one person is responsible for tying the steel wire rope to connect the lifting tool to the crane, and the other person is responsible for lifting the bearing housing cover. This prevents damage to the rear bearing, vibration probe, and other components caused by traditional disassembly and lifting methods, greatly improving on-site maintenance efficiency and saving maintenance time. However, this lifting device fixes the first, second, and third lifting workpieces in a fixed position, limiting its applicability to turbine bearing cover bodies of fixed dimensions and requiring further improvement.

It also includes a connecting plate 5, connecting screws 6, and a lifting plate 7. The upper surfaces of both the hanger 1 and the lifting plate 7 are detachably fitted with lifting rings 3. The lifting rings 3 facilitate lifting the device. A through hole 104 is horizontally provided on the frame near the lower end of the hanger 1, and a threaded connecting post 4 is detachably installed in the through hole 104. The hanger 1 includes a horizontal plate 101 and a vertical plate 102. The horizontal plate 101 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the vertical plate 102. Multiple first lifting ring mounting holes 103 are sequentially provided along the length of the upper surface of the horizontal plate 101, and the lifting ring 3 can be detachably installed in any one of the first lifting ring mounting holes 103. A through hole 104 is provided near the lower end of the vertical plate 102, and a threaded connecting post 4 is detachably installed in the through hole 104. The threaded connecting column 4 is mainly installed at one end in the through hole 104 and the other end extends above the lifting plate 7, where it is inserted into the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7. Its main purpose is to create an offset distance between the lifting frame 1 and the lifting plate 7, thereby avoiding the side of the turbine and not affecting the normal lifting of the bearing cover body 8. A second lifting ring mounting hole 702 is provided at the middle of the upper end face of the arched structure of the lifting plate 7, and the lifting ring 3 is detachably installed in the second lifting ring mounting hole 702.
[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the hanger 1 is equipped with a threaded connecting post 4 extending from one end toward the lifting plate 7 and fastened to the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7. It also includes a locking nut 2. One end of the threaded connecting post 4 is fixedly installed in the through hole 104 of the vertical plate 102 by the locking nut 2, and the other end is limited by the locking nut 2 and installed in the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7. The lifting plate 7 has an arched structure, with fixed plates 701 integrally provided at both ends. Two connecting plates 5 are symmetrically installed on the upper end face of the bearing cover body 8. The connecting plates 5 have fixing screw holes 501 at both ends. Corresponding mounting screw holes are drilled on the upper end face of the bearing cover body 8 at the positions of the fixing screw holes 501.

The hanger 1 includes a horizontal plate 101 and a vertical plate 102. The horizontal plate 101 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the vertical plate 102. A plurality of first lifting ring mounting holes 103 are sequentially provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate 101 along its length. The lifting ring 3 can be detachably installed in any one of the first lifting ring mounting holes 103. A through hole 104 is opened near the lower end of the plate of the vertical plate 102, and a threaded connecting post 4 is detachably installed in the through hole 104. A second lifting ring mounting hole 702 is provided at the middle of the upper end face of the arched structure of the lifting plate 7, and the lifting ring 3 can be detachably installed in the second lifting ring mounting hole 702.
[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the hanger 1 is equipped with a threaded connecting post 4 extending from one end toward the lifting plate 7 and fastened to the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7. It also includes a locking nut 2. One end of the threaded connecting post 4 is fixedly installed in the through hole 104 of the vertical plate 102 by the locking nut 2, and the other end is limited by the locking nut 2 and installed in the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7. The lifting plate 7 has an arched structure, and fixed plates 701 are integrally provided at both ends of the lifting plate 7. Two connecting plates 5 are symmetrically installed on the upper end face of the bearing cover body 8. Fixed screw holes 501 are provided at both ends of the connecting plates 5. Corresponding mounting screw holes 501 are drilled on the upper end face of the bearing cover body 8 at the corresponding positions of the fixed screw holes 501.

[0035] Working principle: First, the connecting plate 5 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bearing cover body 8, and then the lifting plate 7 is installed on the connecting plate 5. Then, the lifting frame 1 is lifted using a wire rope, and the threaded connecting column 4 installed at the lower end of the lifting frame 1 facing the lifting plate 7 is installed in the lifting ring 3 on the lifting plate 7, so that the lifting frame 1 will not contact the side of the turbine, thus achieving normal lifting. When the curvature of the lifting plate 7 is smaller than the curvature of the outer surface of the bearing cover body 8, making it impossible to install the lifting plate 7, the adjusting frame 9 can be set between the lifting plate 7 and the connecting plate 5 to widen the distance between the lifting plate 7 and the bearing cover body 8, so that the lifting plate 7 can be installed normally.
[0036] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
