Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turbine blade processing technology, and in particular to a positioning and clamping mechanism for polishing turbine blades. Background Technology
[0002] The turbine blades are key components of the steam turbine, and also one of the most delicate and important components. They withstand the combined effects of high temperature, high pressure, huge centrifugal force, steam force, steam excitation force, corrosion and vibration, as well as water droplet erosion in the wet steam zone under extremely harsh conditions. Their aerodynamic performance, machining geometry, surface roughness, installation clearance, operating conditions, and scaling all affect the efficiency and output of the steam turbine. Their structural design, vibration intensity, and operating mode have a decisive impact on the safety and reliability of the unit.
[0003] The production of steam turbine blades requires polishing. However, the irregular structure of steam turbine blades makes fixing them relatively troublesome. Commonly used fixing devices are prone to loosening during processing, which affects the polishing process. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a positioning and clamping mechanism for steam turbine blade polishing. Utility Model Content

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the device can quickly place the blade body and limit the blade root in multiple directions to ensure that the blade body is stably restricted, so as to facilitate the subsequent polishing process of the blade body.

[0009] The upper end surface of the limiting seat is arranged as an inclined surface.
[0010] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, the blade body can be limited in multiple directions.
[0011] The lower end part of the second limiting end is of a cylindrical structure, and the upper end part is of a straight - plate structure. The straight - plate structure is rotatably installed on the cylindrical structure.
[0012] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, it is convenient to adjust the second pressing part and remove the processed blade body.
[0013] Both the first pressing part and the second pressing part are composed of a screw rod and a fitting block. The fitting block is rotatably connected to the screw rod, and the bottom of the fitting block is arranged as an inclined surface.
[0014] By adopting the above - mentioned technical solution, downward pressure is applied to the blade root of the blade body for limitation.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the positioning and clamping mechanism for polishing steam turbine blades of the present utility model are as follows:
[0016] By setting the first limiting end and the second limiting end in a rotating state, the blade body can be placed and removed without obstruction, achieving rapid placement of the blade body.

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 A positioning and clamping mechanism for polishing steam turbine blades includes a worktable 1 and a positioning mechanism mounted on the worktable 1. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning table 2, a fixed seat 3, a limiting seat 4, a first screw 5, a second screw 6, a lifting seat 7, a first limiting end 8, a first pressure part 9, a second limiting end 10, a second pressure part 11, a limiting head 12, and a third screw 13. The fixed seat 3 is installed at an opening on one side of the positioning table 2. The limiting seat 4 can slide along a slide groove 301 and passes through the positioning table 2 via the first screw 5. The nut on screw 5 restricts its freedom of movement to one side. Screw 6 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the lifting seat 7 and threadedly connected to one side of the top surface of the positioning table 2. Limiting end 8 is rotatably mounted on the lifting seat 7. Pressing part 9 is rotatably mounted on limiting end 8. Limiting end 10 is fixed to the other side of the top surface of the positioning table 2. Pressing part 11 is rotatably mounted on limiting end 10. Screw 3 13 consists of two opposing rotatably mounted on both sides of the worktable 1. Limiting head 12 is rotatably mounted on the end of screw 3 13.
[0024] The blade body 14 is arranged as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the leaf root is placed in the positioning platform 2, and one edge of the leaf root rests on the positioning platform 2. The screw 13 is rotated to push the limiting head 12 toward the round hole at the leaf root, so that the end of the limiting head 12 is embedded in the round hole at the leaf root, thus initially defining the blade body 14.
[0025] Rotate the second screw rod 6 to adjust the height of the lifting seat 7, so that one side of the lifting seat 7 supports the other end edge of the blade root of the blade body 14. Then, rotate the upper end plate of the second limiting end 10 to move the second pressing part 11 above the blade root of the blade body 14, and rotate the second pressing part 11 to make the fitting block at the bottom of the second pressing part 11 closely adhere to the blade root of the blade body 14. Rotate the first limiting end 8 to move the first pressing part 9 above the blade root of the blade body 14, and rotate the first pressing part 9 to make the fitting block at the bottom of the first pressing part 9 closely adhere to the blade root of the blade body 14, further limiting the blade body 14. The upper end surface of the limiting seat 4 is inclined. Push the limiting seat 4 to pass the first screw rod 5 through the blade root of the blade body 14 and out from the other side of the positioning table 2 until the inclined surface of the limiting seat 4 abuts against the blade root of the blade body 14. Limit the movement of the first screw rod 5 through a nut, and the complete limitation of the blade body 14 can be completed;
[0026] Subsequently, through an external polishing device, manual polishing or polishing with the cooperation of a manipulator can be carried out;
[0027] This device can quickly place the blade body 14 and limit the blade root of the blade body 14 in multiple directions, ensuring that the blade body 14 is stably restricted, so as to facilitate the subsequent polishing treatment of the blade body 14.
[0028] The positioning table 2 is arranged in a "C" - shaped structure. Slot holes with a diameter adapted to the maximum diameter of the limiting head 12 are opened at the two side walls of the middle opening of the positioning table 2. The limiting head 12 is arranged in a frustum - shaped structure; so as to rotate the third screw rod 13 to adjust the position of the limiting head 12 and limit the round - hole part of the blade root of the blade body 14 through the limiting head 12.
[0029] The lower end part of the second limiting end 10 is of a cylindrical structure, and the upper end part is of a straight - plate structure. The straight - plate structure is rotatably installed on the cylindrical structure; so as to adjust the second pressing part 11 and remove the processed blade body 14.
[0030] Both the first pressing part 9 and the second pressing part 11 are composed of a screw rod and a fitting block. The fitting block is rotatably connected to the screw rod, and the bottom of the fitting block is inclined. So as to adjust the downward pressure exerted by the first pressing part 9 and the second pressing part 11 on the blade root of the blade body 14, and the bottom of the fitting block is inclined so as to fit the blade root of the blade body 14.
[0031] The above - described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present utility model. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.
