Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of machining the red ring of a steam turbine cylinder, specifically, to a support device for heating the red ring of a steam turbine cylinder. Background Technology
[0002] As the main steam parameters of steam turbines become increasingly higher, red collars are commonly used in the industry to tighten the cylinders in order to reduce the risk of leakage at the split surface of the turbine cylinders.
[0003] The traditional method of using a red ring to tighten the cylinder is as follows: a heating device is installed on the red ring, a crane is used to suspend it and start heating, causing the red ring to expand thermally due to the high temperature. Heating is stopped when the diameter of the red ring reaches a predetermined value, the red ring is put into the cylinder, and the cylinder is tightened after the red ring cools and shrinks.
[0004] However, in practice, the above method typically heats only one red ring at a time, and only after that ring is installed can the next red ring be heated and installed. The heating process of the red ring takes a long time, resulting in a long waiting time for non-operational tasks and thus low assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical objective of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a support device for heating the red rings of a steam turbine cylinder that can simultaneously heat multiple red rings, thereby reducing non-operation waiting time and improving assembly efficiency.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A support device for heating the red ring of a steam turbine cylinder, wherein the red ring is pre-installed with a heating device;
[0008] The support device has a base and a support frame;
[0009] The support frame is connected through the base, and both axial ends of the support frame are outside the base;
[0010] The support frame, in the area outside the base, has multiple mounting points for suspending the red collar.
[0011] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting multiple hanging positions on the support frame in the area outside the base for hanging red rings, can hang multiple red rings at the same time, thus enabling simultaneous heating of multiple red rings. This helps reduce non-operation waiting time and improves assembly efficiency.
[0012] Furthermore, the base has a bottom plate;
[0013] On the base plate, multiple vertical plates are arranged at intervals along the length of the base plate, and the support frame is connected through the vertical plates.
[0014] Furthermore, the support frame has a first support frame and a second support frame arranged vertically, wherein the length of the first support frame is less than the length of the second support frame;
[0015] The first support frame has a T-shaped cross-section;
[0016] The second support frame has an I-shaped cross-section, and the bottom of the first support frame is connected to the top of the second support frame;
[0017] The first support frame and the second support frame are respectively connected to the vertical plate.
[0018] The above-mentioned technical measures, through the combination of the first support frame and the second support frame, are beneficial to enhancing structural rigidity on the one hand, and facilitating the hanging and removal of large-sized red collars on the other, thereby improving flexibility and versatility.
[0019] Furthermore, at the top of the first support frame, at both ends along the axial direction of the first support frame, there are respectively protruding limiting blocks;
[0020] At the top of the second support frame, at both ends along the axial direction of the second support frame, there are respectively protruding limiting blocks.
[0021] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting up protruding limiting blocks, help to prevent the red collar from shifting excessively during the hanging process and falling off.
[0022] Furthermore, the first support frame has an integrally formed horizontal and vertical portion;
[0023] The horizontal section is located outside the outermost vertical plate among the multiple vertical plates, and has a hook position for suspending the red collar;
[0024] The vertical part is connected to the second support frame;
[0025] Between the horizontal part and the second support frame, a plurality of first reinforcing ribs are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the first support frame, and these first reinforcing ribs are arranged on the left and right sides of the vertical part in the axial direction of the first support frame.
[0026] One end of the first reinforcing rib along its length is connected to the horizontal part, and the other end is connected to the second support frame.
[0027] The first support frame in the above technical measures has an integrally formed horizontal and vertical part, which is simple in structure and easy to form; at the same time, by setting the first reinforcing rib, the structural strength can be enhanced, which is conducive to improving the load-bearing capacity of the first support frame and avoiding stress concentration.
[0028] Furthermore, the second support frame has a vertically arranged fixing part and connecting parts located on the upper and lower sides of the fixing part, and the fixing part and the connecting parts located on the upper and lower sides of the fixing part are integrally formed.
[0029] The connecting part on the upper side of the fixing part is connected to the vertical part of the first support frame and the first reinforcing rib;
[0030] The connecting part on the upper side of the fixing part is located in the area outside the outermost vertical plate among the multiple vertical plates, and has a hook position for hanging the red collar;
[0031] Between the connecting parts on the upper and lower sides of the fixing part, a plurality of second reinforcing ribs are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the second support frame, and these second reinforcing ribs are arranged on the left and right sides of the fixing part in the axial direction of the second support frame.
[0032] One end of the second reinforcing rib along its length is connected to the connecting part on the upper side of the fixing part, and the other end is connected to the connecting part on the lower side of the fixing part.
[0033] The second support frame described above has an integrally formed fixing part and connecting parts located on the upper and lower sides of the fixing part. The structure is simple and easy to form. At the same time, by setting a second reinforcing rib, the structural strength can be enhanced, which is conducive to improving the load-bearing capacity of the second support frame and avoiding stress concentration.

[0035] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting up a lifting plate with multiple lifting holes, can be used in conjunction with lifting equipment to facilitate the handling of the support device.
[0036] Furthermore, a load-bearing plate is connected to the bottom of the second support frame;
[0037] The bottom end of the load-bearing plate is connected to the base plate.
[0038] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting a load-bearing plate at the bottom of the second support frame, can disperse the force transmitted by the second support frame, which helps to avoid stress concentration, enhance structural strength, and improve the load-bearing capacity and stability of the support device.
[0039] Furthermore, two T-shaped plates are connected to the base plate, and the two T-shaped plates are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the load-bearing plate in the thickness direction of the load-bearing plate;
[0040] The T-shaped plate is connected to the vertical plate and the load-bearing plate respectively.
[0041] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting up T-shaped plates, can enhance the structural strength while helping to avoid poor structural stability caused by the shift of the center of gravity.

[0043] The tray, the vertical plate corresponding to the tray, and the second support frame form a triangular structure.
[0044] The above-mentioned technical measures, by setting up a support plate, can share part of the load, which is beneficial to improving the load-bearing capacity of the support device; the support plate, the corresponding vertical plate and the second support frame form a triangular structure, which is beneficial to enhancing stability.
