The existing turbine guide vane mechanism lacks an effective limiting mechanism, which causes the mounting shaft to collide when adjusting the position of the guide vanes, resulting in bending or breakage of the upper support shaft and damage to the guide vanes.
An electric push rod is used to drive the axial rotation of the mounting shaft, and the rotation angle of the mounting shaft is limited by a limit block and a buffer spring to avoid collisions and damage caused by excessive rotation. Bearing sleeves are used to reduce wear.
This effectively avoids collision damage to the mounting shaft and guide vanes, extends service life, and improves the safety and stability of the water guiding mechanism.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water turbine, concretely relates to a safety protection device of water turbine water guide mechanism. BACKGROUND
[0002] The safety protection device of water turbine water guide mechanism is a key component to ensure the stable operation of the water turbine. It mainly includes shear pins, safety connecting rods and other devices, which are used to quickly cut off the transmission when the guide vane is abnormal or jammed, preventing damage to the water guide mechanism and affecting the safety of the unit. These protection devices are designed with exquisite design, which can automatically trigger when detecting abnormal torque, making the guide vane stop moving or keep the current position, avoiding the expansion of the fault. At the same time, they can also provide fault signals, so that the maintenance personnel can discover and handle the fault in time, ensuring the safe operation of the water turbine under complex working conditions and guaranteeing the stability and reliability of power supply.
[0003] The patent with Chinese publication number CN221742772U discloses a water guide mechanism of a water turbine, relating to the technical field of water turbine for hydroelectric power generation, which comprises: a water turbine guide mechanism main body, a blade adjusting mechanism is arranged on the water turbine guide mechanism main body, a blade upper mounting bracket is rotatably connected inside the water turbine guide mechanism main body.

When the guide vane is damaged due to frequent water flow impact, the water guide mechanism needs to be disassembled as a whole to replace or repair the damaged guide vane, the maintenance of the water guide mechanism is not convenient, the maintenance efficiency is low, and professional personnel need to spend a lot of time to replace the guide vane.
[0004] The guide vane of the water guide mechanism in the above-mentioned patent document is installed on one end of the adjusting rod through the upper bracket shaft. The adjusting rod can drive the upper bracket shaft when it is in action. However, the water guide mechanism lacks an effective limiting mechanism for the upper bracket shaft, which leads to the fact that the guide vane lacks necessary constraints and may collide during the process of adjusting the position of the guide vane by the adjusting rod through the upper bracket shaft. This not only causes the upper bracket shaft to bear excessive stress, which may lead to bending or breaking of the upper bracket shaft, but also directly causes serious damage to the guide vane itself, such as crack generation and shape distortion.

[0028] the inside of protection mechanism 21 is slidably installed with the limiting block 23 capable of limiting the rotation angle of mounting shaft 4, and the top of limiting block 23 is hingedly arranged with mounting shaft 4;
[0029] the bottom of mounting shaft 4 is provided with guide vane 41 for adjusting water flow.
[0030] when the output end of electric push rod 3 extends, electric push rod 3 drives mounting shaft 4 to rotate counterclockwise, so that mounting shaft 4 drives guide vane 41 to open the water inlet inside water turbine volute 1, when the output end of electric push rod 3 contracts, electric push rod 3 drives mounting shaft 4 to rotate clockwise, so that mounting shaft 4 drives guide vane 41 to close the water inlet inside water turbine volute 1, thereby controlling the flow and flow rate of water flow into the inside of water turbine volute 1. By slidingly installing limiting block 23 in the inside of protection mechanism 21, the top end of limiting block 23 is hingedly arranged with mounting shaft 4, so that mounting shaft 4 drives limiting block 23 to slide along the inside of protection mechanism 21, so that limiting block 23 limits the rotation angle of mounting shaft 4, to avoid that mounting shaft 4 is bent or broken due to excessive rotation amplitude.
[0031] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 the utility model discloses a safety device of water turbine guide vane mechanism, is applied to water turbine volute 1, the safety device of water turbine guide vane mechanism still includes the water turbine top cover 2 of being fixed on water turbine volute 1, and the top surface of water turbine top cover 2 is arranged with several protection mechanisms 21 around the center axis of water turbine volute 1 equidistantly, the center of protection mechanism 21 is provided with rotatable mounting shaft 4, and the top of water turbine top cover 2 is provided with several electric push rods 3 for driving mounting shaft 4 to rotate around the center axis equidistantly hinged;
[0032] Two arc-shaped limiting grooves 22 are arranged inside the protection mechanism 21. A limiting block 23 is slidingly arranged inside the arc-shaped limiting groove 22. When the mounting shaft 4 rotates, the mounting shaft 4 drives the limiting block 23 to slide along the arc-shaped limiting groove 22. A buffer spring 24 is arranged inside the arc-shaped limiting groove 22, one end of the buffer spring 24 abuts against one side of the limiting block 23. When the limiting block 23 slides in the arc-shaped limiting groove 22, the limiting block 23 presses the buffer spring 24. Then, the buffer spring 24 generates a reaction force due to the pressing, and pushes the limiting block 23, thereby effectively avoiding the collision between the limiting block 23 and the two ends of the arc-shaped limiting groove 22.
[0033] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 , a first connecting piece 42 capable of being hinged with the output end of the electric push rod 3 is horizontally arranged on one side of the top end of the mounting shaft 4.

When the mounting shaft 4 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the limiting block 23 limits the rotation angle of the mounting shaft 4 through the second connecting piece 43, so as to avoid the collision of the bottom arranged guide vane 41 due to the too large rotation amplitude of the mounting shaft 4. The damage of the mounting shaft 4 and the guide vane 41 due to the collision is avoided.

[0038] The electric push rod 3 is hingedly mounted on the mounting rod 26. An installation frame 31 capable of being hinged with the first connecting piece 42 is arranged at the output end of the electric push rod 3. When the output end of the electric push rod 3 extends or shrinks, the electric push rod 3 can rotate axially along the mounting rod 26. At the same time, the electric push rod 3 drives the first connecting piece 42 to move through the installation frame 31. Then the first connecting piece 42 drives the mounting shaft 4 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. So that the electric push rod 3 can flexibly control the rotating direction and angle of the mounting shaft 4.
