[0002] Steam turbines are crucial power machinery in modern industry, widely used in power generation, chemical industry, shipbuilding, and many other fields. During the installation process, the turbine rotor is a critical step, as its installation quality directly affects the turbine's operational performance, stability, and service life.

[0003] Currently, most of the devices used to secure turbine rotors during turbine installation have relatively fixed structures and lack flexibility. Different models and specifications of turbines have significantly different rotor lengths. Existing securing devices are often only suitable for rotors within a specific length range. When encountering rotors exceeding the design length, it is necessary to replace them with securing devices of different specifications. This not only increases installation costs but also reduces installation efficiency. During the installation of a steam turbine rotor, it is often necessary to rotate the rotor to inspect, adjust, and install various parts of it. However, most existing fixing devices can only achieve simple fixing of the rotor and cannot provide convenience or support for the rotor's rotation during the fixing process.

[0004] Therefore, a device for installing steam turbines is needed. Utility Model Content

[0018] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0019] Example 1, as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a device for installing a steam turbine includes a base plate 1. Two sliding grooves 2 are formed on the left and right sides of the upper end of the base plate 1. A support component 3 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the base plate 1. Fixed plates 4 are slidably connected to the inner cavities of the two sliding grooves 2 on the same side. Clamping mechanisms 5 are fixedly connected between the opposite surfaces of the two fixed plates 4. Transmission components 6 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two fixed plates 4 that are far apart from each other.

[0020] In the specific implementation process of this utility model, the steam turbine is first hoisted onto the base plate 1 using a crane. Then, according to the length of the steam turbine, the two fixing plates 4 are pushed into the inner cavity of the slide groove 2 and adjusted to a suitable length. Then, the front and rear shafts of the steam turbine are directly lowered into the inner cavity of the clamping mechanism 5 using the crane. Under the action of the internal structure of the clamping mechanism 5, the steam turbine rotor is clamped inside the clamping mechanism 5 under its own weight. Then, the steam turbine rotor blades are installed by the workers. When it is necessary to change the angle of the rotor installation, the internal drive structure of the two transmission components 6 is activated simultaneously to drive the internal structure of the transmission components 6 to run. Then, the internal structure of the transmission components 6 can drive the rotor to rotate during the clamping process, so that the workers can install the rotor blades without the aid of auxiliary tools. Under the action of the internal structure of the support component 3, the rotor can be supported while rotating, ensuring the stability of the rotor during the rotation process.

[0021] Example 2: In order to achieve the purpose of clamping and fixing the turbine rotor, refer to... Figure 2 In this scheme, the clamping mechanism 5 includes several support plates 51, which are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the opposite faces of two fixed plates 4. Support columns 52 are fixedly connected to the lower middle part of the opposite faces of the two support plates 51 on the same side. Springs 56 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two support columns 52. Pressure blocks 57 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two springs 56. Rubber wheels 58 are rotatably connected to the middle of the upper ends of the two pressure blocks 57. Fixing blocks 53 are fixedly connected to the upper parts of the two support plates 51 on the same side that are close to each other. Rubber wheels 55 are rotatably connected to the upper parts of several clamping plates 54.

[0022] Furthermore, both of the pressure blocks 57 are trapezoidal in shape, and the clamping plates 54 are arc-shaped.

[0023] In the above process, the rotor shafts on both sides are placed between two rubber wheels 55 on the same side by a crane. Then, the rotor's own weight presses down on the rubber wheel 58, causing the rubber wheel 58 to push the pressure block 57 downward. The inclined surface of the pressure block 57 then presses against the lower side of the two clamping plates 54, causing the two pressure blocks 57 to rotate around the axis of the fixed block 53 on the same side. This causes the two rubber wheels 55 on the upper side to rotate around the axis of the fixed block 53, clamping the shafts on both sides of the rotor, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing and clamping.

[0024] Specifically, in order to achieve the goal of rotating the rotor during the clamping process, refer to Figure 3In this scheme, the transmission component 6 includes a plurality of pulleys 62 and two tensioning components 64. The plurality of pulleys 62 are respectively fixedly connected to the two fixed plates 4 at opposite ends. The outer surfaces of the plurality of pulleys 62 on the left and the plurality of pulleys 62 on the right are all wound with a belt 63. The two tensioning components 64 are respectively opened at the upper front part of the opposite ends of the two fixed plates 4. A support block 61 is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the opposite ends of the two fixed plates 4. A motor 65 is fixedly connected to the upper end of each of the two support blocks 61.

[0025] Furthermore, the two pulleys 62 located on the upper left and right sides are respectively fixedly connected to the ends of the two rubber wheels 55 located on the left and the two rubber wheels 55 located on the right that are far apart from each other. The output ends of the two motors 65 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two pulleys 62 located on the lower side that are far apart from each other through couplings.

[0026] In the above process, the rotor presses down to bring the two rubber wheels 55 on the same side closer together, which in turn causes the two rubber wheels 55 to drive the two upper pulleys 62 to move closer together. At the same time, under the action of the tensioning component 64, the tension of the belt 63 wrapped around the surface of the pulleys 62 remains unchanged as the two pulleys 62 move closer together, and it will not loosen due to the displacement of the two pulleys 62. Then, the two motors 65 are started at the same time, causing the two lower pulleys 62 to rotate. Under the action of the belt 63, the pulleys 62 rotate simultaneously, which in turn causes the two upper pulleys 62 to rotate in the same direction. Under the action of the friction between the surfaces of the two rubber wheels 55 and the rotor, the rotor rotates.

[0027] The specific installation method, circuit connection method, and control method of the motor 65 used above are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail in this utility model.

[0028] Specifically, in order to ensure the tension of belt 63, refer to Figure 4 In this solution, the tensioning component 64 includes two grooves 641. The two grooves 641 are respectively opened on the upper front part of the two fixed plates 4 at the opposite ends. The rear wall of the inner cavity of the two grooves 641 is fixedly connected to the second spring 642. The front end of the two second springs 642 is fixedly connected to the slider 643. The two pulleys 62 located on the front side are rotatably connected to the opposite ends of the two sliders 643 at the opposite ends.

[0029] In the above, as the two upper pulleys 62 approach each other, the distance between the belt 63 wrapped around the surface of the pulleys 62 decreases. At the same time, under the action of the spring 642, the slider 643 is pushed forward in the inner cavity of the groove 641, which in turn drives the foremost pulley 62 to move forward to make up for the reduced distance between the two upper pulleys 62, thereby ensuring the tension.

[0030] Specifically, in order to achieve the purpose of supporting the rotor during the clamping and rotation process, refer to Figure 5 In this solution, the support component 3 includes a fixed column 31, which is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the base plate 1. A spring 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the fixed column 31. A limit block 32 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the spring 33. An arc-shaped block 34 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the limit block 32. Several rotating rollers 35 are rotatably connected to the inner surface of the arc-shaped block 34 at intervals.

[0031] In the above process, the rotor's central shaft is placed on the surface of the rotating roller 35, causing the rotating roller 35 to press down on the limiting block 32 and squeeze the spring 33. This causes the limiting block 32 to slide within the cavity of the fixed column 31, thereby ensuring the support force for the rotor. Then, as the rotor rotates, several rotating rollers 35 come into contact with the rotor shaft axis, and under the action of friction, the rotating rollers 35 rotate simultaneously, ensuring that the rotor is supported without hindering its rotation.

[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
