However, this method is inefficient, inconvenient to operate, and prone to damaging components, making it difficult to meet the needs of high-quality and high-efficiency maintenance.

[0036] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0037] Example:
[0038] like Figures 1 to 5 The hydraulic tool shown in this embodiment is used for assembling and disassembling coaxial bushings for aircraft engines. It includes a hydraulic actuator 1, a positioning frame 3, an adjustable push rod 2, a contact pressure head, a hydraulic pump 5, and hydraulic lines 4.
[0039] The hydraulic actuator 1 includes a hydraulic cylinder 1.4, a piston 1.5, and a return spring 1.3. The hydraulic cylinder 1.4 has an oil port 1.1 near its rear end. The piston 1.5 and the return spring 1.3 are fitted together inside the hydraulic cylinder 1.4. The piston 1.5 can move within the hydraulic cylinder 1.4. The return spring 1.3 is located on the side of the piston 1.5 away from the oil port 1.1, and provides the force required for the piston 1.5 to return to its original position.
[0040] The piston 1.5 has a rearwardly extending connecting pipe 1.5.1 in the middle, with a threaded through hole in the middle. The hydraulic cylinder 1.4 has through holes at both ends, with bushings 1.2 at each through hole. The bushings 1.2 are threadedly connected to the through holes, with their heads protruding beyond the end face of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4. A guide sleeve 1.4.1 is located inside the through hole at the rear end. The connecting pipe 1.5.1 in the middle of the piston 1.5 fits into the guide sleeve 1.4.1. The sliding fit between the guide sleeve 1.4.1 and the connecting pipe 1.5.1 makes the movement of the piston 1.5 more stable.
[0041] The adjustable push rod 2 passes through the bushing 1.2. A portion of the adjustable push rod 2 located inside the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 has external threads. The adjustable push rod 2 is threadedly connected to the threaded through hole of the piston 1.5 via these external threads. The forward and backward position can be adjusted by rotating the adjustable push rod 2. In this embodiment, the rear end of the adjustable push rod 2 has a hexagonal square head 2.4, allowing the operator to better rotate the adjustable push rod 2 by gripping the hexagonal square head 2.4.
[0042] Of course, conventional sealing rings should also be designed at each connection point of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 to ensure that the hydraulic oil does not leak.
[0043] Hydraulic pump 5 and hydraulic pipeline 4 are both conventional components in hydraulic drive. Hydraulic pump 5 has an oil storage chamber 5.1. Hydraulic pump 5 is connected to the oil port 1.1 of hydraulic cylinder 1.4 through hydraulic pipeline 4. Hydraulic pump 5 is equipped with pressure supply and pressure release operation knob 5.2 for convenient operation and control by the operator.
[0044] The adjustable push rod 2 has a threaded connection end 2.3 at its front end. The rear of the contact head is threadedly connected to the connection end 2.3 of the adjustable push rod 2 through a threaded hole. The front of the contact head has a limiting boss 2.5. The outer diameter of the limiting boss 2.5 is equal to the diameter of the central hole of the bushing 6.3. The limiting boss 2.5 can fit into the bushing 6.3, thereby limiting the position between the contact head and the bushing 6.3 and preventing loosening or slippage during operation. In this embodiment, the contact head includes a disassembly contact head 2.1 and an installation contact head 2.2. The disassembly contact head 2.1 is used when disassembling the bushing 6.3, and the installation contact head 2.2 is used when installing the bushing 6.3. The limiting bosses 2.5 of the disassembly contact head 2.1 and the installation contact head 2.2 are the same size. The difference lies in the overall outer diameter. The outer diameter of the installation contact head 2.2 is larger than that of the disassembly contact head 2.1. The outer diameter of the disassembly contact head 2.1 must be smaller than the diameter of the bushing hole 6.2 of the aircraft engine mounting.
[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the positioning frame 3 in this embodiment is provided with a support plate 3.3, a limiting rear plate 3.2, a limiting front plate 3.4, and a top plate 3.1. The limiting rear plate 3.2 is located at the rear end of the support plate 3.3, and the limiting front plate 3.4 is located near the rear end of the support plate 3.3. The ends of the limiting rear plate 3.2 and the limiting front plate 3.4 are respectively provided with semi-circular slots 3.6. In use, the limiting rear plate 3.2 and the limiting front plate 3.4 are respectively clamped on the front and rear end faces of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4, and the semi-circular slots 3.6 are engaged with the bushing 1.2. At this time, the front end of the positioning frame 3 extends forward to the front of the hydraulic actuator 1. The top plate 3.1 is located at the front end of the load-bearing plate 3.3. The end of the top plate 3.1 is provided with a semi-circular notch 3.7. When the bushing 6.3 is disassembled or assembled, the top plate 3.1 abuts against the side of the connecting plate 6.1 of the aircraft engine sling 6 away from the hydraulic actuator 1. The semi-circular notch 3.7 is located outside the bushing hole 6.2.
[0046] In this embodiment, reinforcing ribs 3.5 are provided at the connection positions of the limiting front plate 3.4 and the load-bearing plate 3.3, and at the connection positions of the top plate 3.1 and the load-bearing plate 3.3, respectively, to strengthen the structure.
[0047] The method of using the hydraulic tool for assembling and disassembling coaxial multiple bushings for aircraft engines in this embodiment is as follows:
[0048] like Figures 6 to 8As shown, when disassembling bushing 6.3, first align the positioning frame 3 with the position of the bushing 6.3 to be disassembled on the aircraft engine mount 6. Connect the disassembly contact head 2.1 to the front end of the adjustable push rod 2. The disassembly contact head 2.1 will approach the bushing 6.3 to be disassembled. Then rotate the adjustable push rod 2 so that the disassembly contact head 2.1 abuts against the bushing 6.3 to be disassembled. The limiting boss 2.5 of the disassembly contact head 2.1 is embedded in the bushing 6.3 to lock the position. Then operate the pressure supply and pressure release operation knob 5.2 to the pressure supply position. The oil in the oil reservoir 5.1 supplies pressure to the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 through the hydraulic pump 5 and hydraulic pipeline 4. Under the action of hydraulic pressure, the piston 1.5 overcomes the action of the return spring 1.3, causing the adjustable push rod 2 to slowly and steadily push the bushing 6.3, and finally push the bushing 6.3 out of the bushing hole 6.2, completing the disassembly work. After the work is completed, operate the pressure supply and release control knob 5.2 to the release position, and the piston 1.5 will be reset under the action of the return spring 1.3.
[0049] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, when installing bushing 6.3, the installation contact head 2.2 is selected. The operation process is similar to the disassembly process of bushing 6.3. The adjustable push rod 2 is pushed by hydraulic pressure, and then the bushing 6.3 is pushed into bushing hole 6.2 by the installation contact head 2.2 to complete the installation.
[0050] The above embodiments of this utility model are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. The implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto. All other modifications, substitutions or alterations made to the above structure of this utility model based on the above content of this utility model and in accordance with the common technical knowledge and conventional means in the field, without departing from the basic technical idea of this utility model, shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
