Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam turbine installation technology, and more specifically to a steam turbine rotor installation device. Background Technology
[0002] A steam turbine, also known as a steam turbine engine, is a large mechanical device composed of multiple sets of mechanical parts. During the installation of a steam turbine, the rotor needs to be hoisted and installed using installation and hoisting equipment. Workers manually attach hoisting ropes to the outer wall of the rotor, and then control the movement of the hoisting ropes through the installation equipment, thereby moving the rotor to the appropriate position for placement and installation.
[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (publication number: CN220480791U) that discloses a turbine rotor installation device. During use, a clamping mechanism is installed, using a pressing method to move the plate upwards. Simultaneously, two sets of moving blocks move the clamping blocks inwards to clamp the outer wall of the rotor at the bottom. A first spring, in conjunction with the housing, maintains a close clamping state between the outer wall of the clamping blocks and the outer wall of the rotor, thus preventing shaking due to inertia during installation. However, the inventors discovered the following problem with the existing technology during the development of this utility model: the aforementioned turbine rotor installation device lacks the function of adjusting the installation angle during use. This makes it difficult to accurately place the rotor inside the turbine housing, potentially leading to collisions and damage to the rotor during installation.
[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a turbine rotor installation device to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0008] The second oscillating assembly includes a second servo motor fixedly mounted on the surface of the second drive box. The output shaft of the second servo motor extends into the interior of the second drive box and is fixedly mounted with a worm gear. A worm wheel is fixedly mounted on the surface of the second vertical shaft, and the worm gear meshes with the worm wheel.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the upper surface of the base has several mounting holes at the four corners; by setting the mounting holes and inserting bolts inside the mounting holes, the base can be firmly fixed to the external structure.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: the upper surface of the base is provided with a slide rail, and the movable seat is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rail; by providing the slide rail, the stability of the movable seat when moving can be improved and the movable seat can be prevented from shaking.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: a balance disc is welded to the bottom end of the boom, and a number of support balls are arranged in a circumferential array on the upper surface of the moving seat. The arc surface of the support balls abuts against the lower surface of the balance disc. By setting the balance disc and support balls, the support balls continuously provide rolling support to the bottom end of the balance disc during the boom's swing, which can improve the stability of the boom during swing.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: a first limiting slide rod is fixedly installed on the surface of the lifting plate, and the first limiting slide rod is slidably connected to the surface of the connecting plate; by setting the first limiting slide rod, the stability of the lifting plate when moving can be improved, and the purpose of anti-torsion protection can be achieved for the telescopic end of the first hydraulic rod.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: the adjusting seat and the beam frame are movably installed. A limiting groove is opened at the bottom of the beam frame. The adjusting seat is slidably connected to the limiting groove, and the inner wall of the limiting groove is rotatably connected to a positive and negative threaded rod. Two adjusting seats are symmetrically threaded to the threaded surfaces on both sides of the positive and negative threaded rod. A third servo motor that drives the positive and negative threaded rod to rotate is fixedly installed on the back of the beam frame. By movably installing the adjusting seat and the beam frame, and using the third servo motor to drive the positive and negative threaded rod to rotate, the distance between the two adjusting seats and the lifting ring can be adjusted, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the lifting position and making it flexible in use.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: the fine-tuning plate and the adjusting seat are movably installed, and a third hydraulic rod is embedded at the bottom end of the adjusting seat. The telescopic end of the third hydraulic rod is fixed to the upper surface of the fine-tuning plate. Because the fine-tuning plate and the adjusting seat are movably installed, when the rotor is lifted, the third hydraulic rod can be telescopically extended to drive the fine-tuning plate to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the level of the rotor and avoiding different heights at both ends of the rotor after it is lifted, thus further ensuring the accuracy of rotor installation.

[0016] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this turbine rotor installation equipment uses ropes to be attached to the surfaces of two lifting rings. The turbine rotor is pulled by these ropes, and the lifting rings are raised and lowered via the extension and retraction of a first hydraulic rod, achieving the purpose of lifting and installing the rotor. During operation, a first servo motor drives a longitudinal screw to rotate, which in turn moves a movable seat to adjust the installation position. A first swing assembly uses a second hydraulic rod to extend and retract, moving a rack. Based on the meshing of the rack and gear, the angles of the boom and beam can be adjusted. A second swing assembly uses a second servo motor to drive a worm gear to rotate. Based on the meshing of the worm and worm wheel, the angle of the beam can be adjusted, thus facilitating the adjustment of the rotor installation angle. This ensures the rotor is stably installed inside the turbine casing, guaranteeing the accuracy of the rotor installation.
[0018] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this turbine rotor installation equipment, by setting mounting holes and inserting bolts inside the mounting holes, can firmly fix the base to the external structure; by setting slide rails, it can improve the stability of the moving seat during movement and prevent the moving seat from shaking; by setting a balance disc and support balls, the support balls continuously roll and support the bottom end of the balance disc during the swing of the boom, which can improve the stability of the boom during swing; by setting a first limit slide bar, it can improve the stability of the lifting plate during movement and achieve the purpose of anti-torsion protection for the extension end of the first hydraulic rod.
[0019] 3. Compared with existing technologies, this turbine rotor installation equipment, through the movable installation between the adjusting seat and the beam frame, utilizes a third servo motor to drive the positive and negative threaded screws to rotate, enabling adjustment of the distance between the two adjusting seats and the lifting ring. This facilitates adjustment of the lifting position and provides flexibility in use. The movable installation between the fine-tuning plate and the adjusting seat allows the third hydraulic rod to extend and retract, raising and lowering the fine-tuning plate during rotor lifting to adjust the rotor's levelness, preventing uneven heights at both ends after lifting and further ensuring the accuracy of rotor installation. The inclusion of a second limit slide bar enhances the stability of the fine-tuning plate during lifting and provides anti-torsion protection for the extension and retraction ends of the third hydraulic rod.
