Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for hydropower station maintenance, and in particular to a seventh shaft device suitable for repairing the movable guide vanes of hydropower units. Background Technology

[0002] During the repair of movable guide vanes in hydropower units, the limited space for the movable guide vanes to enter and exit (access channel is only φ650mm) and the radial distance between the movable and fixed guide vanes is only 490mm make the working space extremely small and unsuitable for long-term manual operation. Therefore, when repairing the movable guide vanes of hydropower units, it is planned to use a six-axis robot. However, due to the height of the movable guide vanes, the arm span of a six-axis robot suitable for the internal space is insufficient. In order to enable the six-axis robot to comprehensively repair the movable guide vanes, we propose a seventh-axis device suitable for the repair of movable guide vanes of hydropower units.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] It should be noted that the use of terms such as "an embodiment," "an embodiment," "an exemplary embodiment," and "some embodiments" in the specification indicates that the described embodiment may include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic, but not every embodiment necessarily includes that specific feature, structure, or characteristic. Furthermore, when a specific feature, structure, or characteristic is described in connection with an embodiment, implementing such a feature, structure, or characteristic in conjunction with other embodiments (whether explicitly described or not) should be within the knowledge of those skilled in the art.

[0028] Example 1: See Figure 1-2 A seventh shaft device suitable for repairing movable guide vanes of hydropower units includes a top plate 10, two support rods 20 are fixedly installed on the lower side of the top plate 10, a bottom plate 30 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the two support rods 20, a lifting device 80 is provided on the lower side of the bottom plate 30, and a side plate 40 is fixedly installed on the same side of the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 30. It also includes a robot mounting base 70, which includes a transverse base 71 and a longitudinal base 72. The longitudinal base 72 is fixed to the upper or lower side of the transverse base 71. The two ends of the transverse base 71 are slidably connected to two support rods 20 respectively. The longitudinal base 72 is slidably connected to the side plate 40 through a sliding structure 50. A drive unit 60 is also installed on the side plate 40. The drive unit 60 is connected to the robot mounting base 70 to drive the robot mounting base 70 to move up and down.

[0029] Top plate 10 has a certain width, see Figure 5 , 9 The top plate 10 is used to support the underside of the top cover 1. The lifting device 80 is placed on the bottom ring 2 and is used to lift the bottom plate 30, thereby fixing the seventh axis device between the top cover 1 and the bottom ring 2. The six-axis robot is mounted on the robot mounting base 70. The robot mounting base 70 is guided by the support rod 20 and the sliding structure 50, which improves stability. The robot mounting base 70 is driven to rise and fall by the drive device 60, thereby driving the six-axis robot to rise and fall, so that the six-axis robot can perform comprehensive repair work on the movable guide vanes.

[0030] In use, the robot mounting base 70 is provided with threaded holes for matching the mounting holes on the six-axis robot base.

[0031] See Figure 1 , 2 Two first positioning sleeves 11 are fixedly installed on the lower side of the top plate 10, and the upper end of the support rod 20 is inserted into the first positioning sleeves 11 for fixation. Specifically, the support rod 20 and the first positioning sleeves 11 are interference-fitted.

[0032] A flange 21 is provided at the lower end of the support rod 20, and the flange 21 is fixed to the base plate 30 by bolts. Further, see Figure 2 Linear bearings 73 are installed at both ends of the transverse seat 71, and the support rod 20 slides through the linear bearings 73.

[0033] See Figure 2 The sliding structure 50 includes linear guide rails 51 and sliders. Two linear guide rails 51 are mounted in parallel on the side plate 40. At least one slider is mounted on each linear guide rail 51. The sliders are connected to the longitudinal seat 72 by screws.

[0034] See Figure 1 The drive unit 60 includes a ball screw 61 and a servo motor 63. Bearing seats 62 are mounted on both ends of the ball screw 61, and these two bearing seats 62 are respectively mounted on the upper and lower ends of the side plate 40. The servo motor 63 is fixedly mounted on the side plate 40, and its output shaft is connected to one end of the ball screw 61 via a coupling. A ball screw nut seat is mounted on the longitudinal seat 72, and it is screwed onto the ball screw 61. (The ball screw nut seat is not shown in the figure. It is existing technology. Specifically, for installation, an ear plate can be welded to the side of the longitudinal seat 72 near the side plate 40. The ball screw nut seat is mounted on the ear plate with screws. The ear plate has a hole through which the ball screw 61 passes, thus screwing the ball screw 61 onto the ball screw nut seat. When the servo motor 63 drives the ball screw 61 to rotate, the fixed ball screw nut seat drives the robot mounting base 70 to move up and down.)

[0035] In this embodiment, the lifting device 80 includes two jacks. In one embodiment, when in use, the jacks are supported on the underside of the base plate 30, and when not in use, the jacks are separated from the base plate 30.

[0036] In another option, see Figure 1 Two first connecting rings 31 are fixedly installed on the lower side of the base plate 30. The two first connecting rings 31 are coaxial with the support rod 20. The lifting device 80 includes two jacks. The top of the protruding end of the jack is inserted into the first connecting ring 31. The first fastener 32 passes through the first connecting ring 31 and the telescopic end of the jack. The jacks are connected to the lower side of the base plate 30 through the above structure.

[0037] In this embodiment, the jack can be a screw jack or a manual hydraulic jack.

[0038] Example 2: The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, see [link to Embodiment 1] Figure 3 , 4 A lifting plate 90 is fixedly connected to the underside of the base plate 30 via a support plate 91. The lifting plate 90 is fixedly connected to the side plate 40. At least two casters 100 are installed on the underside of the lifting plate 90, and the lifting device 80 is located below the lifting plate 90. By setting up the lifting plate 90 and installing two casters 100 on its underside, the lifting device 80 can be shortened when moving to a different work position, allowing the casters 100 to be supported on the bottom ring 2, thus facilitating the movement of the device. Two casters 100 can be installed, or four can be installed depending on the site conditions. The casters 100 are existing directional casters.

[0039] Similarly, in this embodiment, the lifting device 80 includes two jacks. In one embodiment, when in use, the jacks are supported on the underside of the lifting plate 90, and when not in use, the jacks are separate from the lifting plate 90.

[0040] In another option, see Figure 3 , 4 The lifting plate 90 has two second connecting rings 92 at its lower ends. The lifting device 80 includes two jacks, the top of which extends into the second connecting rings 92. The second fastener 93 passes through the second connecting rings 92 and the extension ends of the jacks. The jacks are connected to the lower side of the lifting plate 90 through the above structure.

[0041] The jack can be a screw jack or a manual hydraulic jack.

[0042] The working principle or working process of this utility model: When using, please refer to Figure 9 The top plate 10 is supported on the lower side of the top cover 1. The lifting device 80 is placed on the bottom ring 2. The lifting device 80 lifts the lifting plate 90, thereby fixing the seventh axis device between the top cover 1 and the bottom ring 2. The six-axis robot is mounted on the robot mounting base 70. The robot mounting base 70 is driven to rise and fall by the drive device 60, thereby driving the six-axis robot to rise and fall, so that the six-axis robot can perform comprehensive repair work on the movable guide vane. At this time, the state of the seventh axis device is as follows: Figure 5 As shown.

[0043] When it is necessary to move the maintenance location, such as Figure 6 , 7As shown, retract the jack, lower the seventh axis device by 10-20mm, and let the caster 100 support the bottom ring 2. Then, remove the jack from the bottom ring 2. At this point, the seventh axis device can be moved slowly.

[0044] See Figure 8 Since the top plate 10 has a certain width, as long as the height from the bottom of the caster 100 to the top of the top plate 10 is controlled to be 10~20mm lower than the distance between the top cover 1 and the bottom ring 2, the seventh axis device can be prevented from tipping over during movement.

[0045] While specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments described are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
