Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pins for bearing housings of steam turbine equipment, specifically a device for removing pins from steam turbine bearing housings. Background Technology

[0002] The pins of the bearing housings of steam turbine equipment are installed on their respective bearing housings. Because the pins have no external screws, only an internal thread at the top, and are prone to rust due to long-term inactivity, disassembly is quite difficult. Removing the bearing housing pins during major and minor overhauls is always a major challenge. Sometimes, tools such as sledgehammers, wrenches, bolts, and chain hoists may be used. When using appropriate bolts to rotate the pin to make it easier to pull out, the bolt may break due to excessive torque. Then, a thread extractor is used to remove the broken bolt, increasing the workload. Even if the pin is removed successfully, using a sledgehammer can easily cause injury or other safety hazards, posing a significant safety risk to equipment maintenance.

[0003] According to the description in the patent application published on the Internet, a hammer-type pin-pulling device for equipment maintenance (authorization announcement number: CN220179223U) includes a "handle, hammer, connector" etc., to realize the pin-pulling work.

[0004] Regarding the above description, the applicant believes the following issues exist:

[0005] The maintenance device uses a hammer-type pin-pulling device, which employs a handle, hammer, and connector to pull pins. During use, a suitable connector is selected based on the pin's condition. After selection, the connector is connected to the pin, and the connector is threaded to the support rod. Frequent connector replacement can cause wear and stripping of the threaded hole, affecting the stability of the pin-pulling operation. Furthermore, the lack of an auxiliary force-applying structure around the hammer affects the force application during pin pulling. Therefore, improvements to this device are necessary.
