Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of centrifugal compressor technology, and in particular to a corrosion-resistant structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor. Background Technology

[0002] Centrifugal compressors, as core power equipment in the industrial field, have their main shafts operating at high speeds for extended periods. These shafts are also exposed to complex environments containing humid and corrosive media, leading to severe corrosion risks for the main shaft and its mating components. Existing anti-corrosion structures for centrifugal compressor main shafts suffer from the following problems: Traditional structures often use rigid connections for impeller positioning and support. During high-speed rotation, vibration and load fluctuations can cause radial or axial displacement of the impeller, resulting in wear of sealing components and allowing corrosive media to penetrate the main shaft surface, initiating corrosion. Single-seal structures are insufficient to handle complex operating conditions such as high pressure and multiphase flow. Gas and liquid can easily seep into the impeller from the gaps between the impeller and the main shaft, or between the impeller and transmission components, leading to crevice corrosion or electrochemical corrosion. The connection between the impeller and the main shaft often relies on interference fits or complex bolt assemblies, requiring specialized tools or lengthy alignment times for disassembly and assembly, increasing maintenance costs. Furthermore, worn sealing components are difficult to replace quickly, resulting in low efficiency in anti-corrosion maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a corrosion-resistant structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor. A spring is provided to eject the limiting post, allowing the universal ball at the end of the limiting post to compress the impeller, preventing positional displacement during impeller rotation, ensuring impeller rotational stability, and not affecting impeller rotation speed. Sealing rings one and two are provided to seal from both sides of the impeller. Combined with matching fitting rings to the stop blocks, the sealing performance of the device is further enhanced, preventing gas and liquid from entering the device and corroding components. The stop blocks, which match the mounting bolts, facilitate quick disassembly and assembly of the impeller, and also facilitate device maintenance and cleaning.

[0004] This utility model also provides a centrifugal compressor main shaft anti-corrosion structure as described above, comprising: a transmission component, wherein the transmission component has an internal mounting hole, a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting hole, a groove is formed on the side surface of the rotating shaft, a support ring is fixedly connected to the side surface of the transmission component, a limit ring is fixedly connected to the side surface of the support ring, a spring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the support ring, a limit post is fixedly connected to the end of the spring, and a universal ball is provided at the end of the limit post; an impeller, wherein a fitting ring is fixedly connected to the side surface of the impeller, a stop is provided on the side surface of the fitting ring, a sealing ring is provided between the stop and the fitting ring, and a mounting bolt is provided inside the stop. The components include a spring that can eject the limiting post, allowing the universal ball at the end of the limiting post to press against the impeller. This prevents the impeller from shifting position during rotation, ensuring its rotational stability without affecting its speed. Sealing rings one and two provide sealing from both sides of the impeller. Combined with matching interlocking rings that correspond to the stop blocks, this further enhances the device's sealing performance, preventing gas and liquid from entering and corroding the components. The stop blocks, which match the mounting bolts, facilitate quick assembly and disassembly of the impeller, as well as easy maintenance and cleaning of the device.

[0005] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the spring, limiting post, and universal ball are several and arranged in an array inside the support ring. These components enable the impeller to rotate stably and prevent impeller misalignment.

[0006] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the side surface of the limiting column is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support ring, and the universal ball is located at the end of the limiting column away from the spring. These components restrict the range of motion of the limiting column, allowing the universal ball to compress the impeller without affecting its rotation and ensuring stable impeller rotation.

[0007] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the impeller is disposed on the side surface of the rotating shaft, and the inner sidewall of the impeller is fitted with a groove. These components enable the rotating shaft to drive the impeller to rotate.

[0008] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the impeller is located inside the limiting ring, and the end of the universal ball joint away from the limiting post contacts the side surface of the impeller. These components allow the limiting ring to restrict the impeller and the universal ball joint to compress the impeller, ensuring stable operation of the device.

[0009] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, a second sealing ring is provided between the support ring and the impeller, and the inner sidewall of the second sealing ring is in contact with the side surface of the transmission component. These components seal the support ring and the impeller, preventing corrosion inside the device.

[0010] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the end of the mounting bolt away from the stop block is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft away from the transmission component. These components facilitate quick installation of the stop block.

[0011] According to the anti-corrosion structure for the main shaft of a centrifugal compressor described in this utility model, the side surface of the stop block contacts the side surface of the impeller, and the inner side wall of the stop block matches the mounting bolt. These components allow the stop block to restrict the position of the impeller, preventing unstable impeller rotation, and allow the stop block to rotate on the surface of the mounting bolt, thus enabling rapid installation of the stop block.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model is equipped with a spring that can pop out the limiting post, so that the universal ball at the end of the limiting post can squeeze the impeller, which can prevent the impeller from shifting position during rotation, ensure the stability of the impeller rotation, and not affect the impeller rotation speed. It is equipped with sealing ring one and sealing ring two to seal from both sides of the impeller. With the matching fitting ring that matches the stop block, the sealing performance of the device is further enhanced, preventing gas and liquid from entering the device and corroding the components. The stop block that matches the mounting bolt facilitates quick disassembly and assembly of the impeller, and also facilitates the maintenance and cleaning of the device. Attached Figure Description
