[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Figures 1-8 It should be apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the present embodiment provides a tool for measuring the air gap between the stator and the rotor of a generator set, which comprises an inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 and a hand-held frame 2 used in conjunction with the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1.

[0033] ​​​The inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 comprises a vertical rod end (i.e. a micrometer screw), a fixed sleeve at the lower side of the vertical rod end, a differential cylinder at the lower end of the fixed sleeve, a force measuring device (knob) at the lower end of the differential cylinder, a telescopic measuring claw at the upper end of the vertical rod end, and a lengthening locking rod which can extend the length of the vertical rod end.

[0034] The hand-held frame 2 comprises two groups of half-cylinders 201 buckled on the vertical rod end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1, and the two groups of half-cylinders 201 are detachably connected, one half-cylinder 201 is fixed with a hand-held handle 203, and both half-cylinders 201 are fixedly installed with half-cylinder buckles 202 buckled on the horizontal telescopic end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1. The two half-cylinder buckles 202 are combined into a whole circular buckle.

[0035] According to the above technical solution:

[0036] In use, first, according to the design of the air gap of the stator 5 and the rotor 6, select the appropriate specification of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1, and then carry out zero adjustment and calibration. Then install the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 on the hand-held frame 2. After installation, the upper end of the vertical rod end (micrometer screw part) of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is buckled by the two groups of half-cylinders 201; the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is fixed by the horizontal telescopic end (measuring claw). Under the cooperation of the two groups of half-cylinders 201 and the two half-cylinder buckles 202, the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is firmly embedded on the hand-held frame 2 and cannot be lifted and deflected relative to the hand-held frame 2. Holding the hand-held handle 203 can insert the telescopic measuring end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 into the air gap between the stator 5 and the rotor 6 for measurement.

[0037] Measurement process:

[0038] 1. Lock the gauge at the minimum range position.

[0039] 2. Put the hand-held fixed frame vertically into the air gap between the stator 5 and the rotor 6.

[0040] 3. The telescopic head of the gauge reaches the predetermined measurement point position.

[0041] 4. The two ends of the telescopic gauge are perpendicular to the inner and outer surfaces of the stator 5 and the rotor 6.

[0042] 5. Cancel the locking by the lengthening rod locking knob.

[0043] 6. The two end heads of the telescopic gauge are tightly attached to the surfaces of the stator 5 and the rotor 6.

[0044] 7. Lock again by the lengthening rod locking knob.

[0045] 8. Hold the hand-held fixed frame tightly and rotate it 90° to the left / right, and then take it out slowly (to prevent collision with the inner and outer surfaces of the stator 5 and the rotor 6 during the taking-out process due to the too small air gap).

[0046] 9, the vernier caliper is used for measuring the length of the two ends of the gauge and recording (the data is the size of the air gap between the stator 5 and the rotor 6).

[0047] 10, analysis and processing adjustment.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the process of calculating the proportion of the wedge-shaped plate is reduced, and the data processing is more concise.

[0049] It is not necessary to sprinkle chalk every time, only to lock the knob, the operation process is less, more convenient and rapid, and the measurement time cost is low.

[0050] The three-point contact of the wedge-shaped plate may cause the vernier caliper not to be on the same working surface during measurement, the measurement data is inaccurate, and the error is large after conversion by the proportion method. The new measurement method is more simple, effectively reduces the error, and the data is more accurate.

[0051] In a further embodiment of the present scheme, the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is generally provided with a plurality of measuring claws. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the half-cylinder buckles 202 of the two groups of half-cylinders 201 are not less than two groups and are arranged at equal intervals. Each pair of half-cylinders 201 corresponds to a group of measuring claws, and preferably, the half-cylinders 201 are arranged in two pairs. This makes the buckling between the hand-held frame 2 and the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 more stable.

[0052] In a further embodiment of the present scheme, the bottom end of the hand-held handle 203 is detachably connected with a handle connector 204. For example, the bottom end of the hand-held handle 203 is provided with a threaded hole 205, and the upper end of the handle connector 204 is provided with a threaded column. The threaded hole 205 is matched with the threaded column to detachably connect the hand-held handle 203 with the handle connector 204. The hand-held handle 203 is lengthened to adapt to the measurement of air gaps at different depths.

[0053] In a further embodiment of the present scheme, as shown in Figs. 1 to 4, Figure 3 , Figs. 5 to 8, Figure 4 , Figs. 9 to 12, Figure 5 the upper ends of the two half-cylinder buckles 202 on the two half-cylinders 201 are rotatably connected. The two groups of half-cylinders 201 form a whole, preventing them from being lost during storage. It is also convenient for the two half-cylinder buckles 202 to abut and buckle on the horizontal measurement end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1.

[0054] In a further embodiment of the present scheme, the sidewalls of the lower ends of the two groups of half-cylinders 201 are provided with matching threads 205, and a nut 206 is screwed on the two threads 205. The threads 205 on the two half-cylinders 201 together form a set of smooth threads 205. After the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is inserted into the hand-held frame 2, the nut 206 is screwed, the two half-cylinders 201 are tightly connected, and the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is firmly inserted into the hand-held frame 2. The two half-cylinder buckles 202 are rotatably connected,

[0055] In a further embodiment of the present application, the upper end of the hand handle 203 is a vertical mounting portion attached to the vertical rod end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1, the middle portion is an outwardly expanded portion, and the lower end is a vertical connecting portion. The upper end of the hand handle 203 is attached to the vertical rod end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1, which can avoid the interference between the hand handle 203 and the stator 5 and rotor 6 when the hand handle 203 is inserted into the air gap between the stator 5 and the rotor 6. The middle portion is outwardly expanded, so that there is a gripping gap between the hand holding portion of the hand handle 203 and the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1, which is convenient to hold when in use.

[0056] In a further embodiment of the present application, the outwardly expanded portion is located below the middle portion of the vertical rod end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1. This can ensure that the horizontal measuring end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 can be inserted into the air gap between the stator 5 and the rotor 6 to a sufficient depth, so as to ensure the measurement accuracy.

[0057] In a further embodiment of the present application, another connection structure of two half-cylinders 201 is provided in the present embodiment. One of the two half-cylinders 201 is fixed with a hand handle 203 on the side wall, and the other is fixed with a clamping handle 3 at the lower end. The lower end of the clamping handle 3 is bent towards the hand handle 203, and an opening with a width greater than the diameter of the vertical rod end of the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is arranged on the bent portion of the clamping handle 3. In this way, one half-cylinder 201 is opened, the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 is inserted, and then the other half-cylinder 201 is buckled. The lower end of the clamping handle 3 is buckled on the hand handle 203, and they are held together, so that the inner diameter telescopic gauge 1 can be buckled on the hand holder 2. Compared with the need to screw the thread 205, this way is more convenient and faster.
