[0002] As a large rotating thermal power equipment, the start-up and shutdown process of steam turbines is a critical stage in the operation of power plants, involving complex changes in operating conditions and strict safety requirements.
[0003] During the turbine startup process, the flow rate of the high-temperature and high-pressure working gas (such as steam) entering the cylinder needs to be controlled with extreme precision in order to achieve stable warm-up, speed-up and grid connection operations.
[0004] However, some existing control devices have relatively crude gas flow regulation mechanisms when executing start-up and shutdown procedures, relying heavily on traditional valve switching control and lacking high-precision, continuously adjustable automation methods.
[0005] This lack of control precision makes it difficult to achieve a smooth flow curve during the acceleration process, which can easily cause fluctuations in turbine speed or uneven thermal stress, affecting the stability, safety and automation level of the start-up and shutdown process.
[0006] Therefore, this utility model proposes a fully automatic control device for the start-up and shutdown process of a steam turbine to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a fully automatic control device for the start-up and shutdown process of a steam turbine, which aims to solve the problems of low accuracy in the control of high-temperature and high-pressure gas flow and lack of a fully automatic and precise adjustment mechanism in the prior art during the start-up process of a steam turbine.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a base 1 and an integrated box 26 fixedly connected to the base 1. The base 1 provides a stable installation and support foundation for the entire device. The integrated box 26 houses a control module 39 and is used to accommodate and protect the control module 39.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The control mechanism 4 includes a tank 41 and a hydraulic cylinder 44 fixedly connected to the top of the tank 41. The tank 41 is fixedly connected to an air inlet pipe 47 and an air outlet pipe 48. The driving end of the hydraulic cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to a hydraulic rod 45. A piston 46 is slidably disposed inside the tank 41 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hydraulic rod 45. The control module 39 is electrically connected to and controls the hydraulic cylinder 44. The hydraulic cylinder 44 drives the hydraulic rod 45 to drive the piston 46 to reciprocate axially inside the tank 41. This movement adjusts the flow gap between the air inlet pipe 47 and the air outlet pipe 48 to achieve precise control of the gas flow rate.
[0036] Reference Figure 1 The auxiliary component 2 includes a housing 22, which is securely connected to the base 1 to house the core moving parts. To enhance connection stability, the auxiliary component 2 also includes a support plate 21, which is fixedly connected to the base 1 and provides support for the housing 22. A rotor 24 is installed inside the housing 22. A rotating rod 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotor 24 to transmit the rotational motion and power of the rotor 24. An exhaust pipe 28 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 22 to discharge exhaust gas after operation. A pipe 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the housing 22.
[0037] In the assembled state, the exhaust pipe 48 of the control mechanism 4 is connected to the casing 22. This connection method allows the high-temperature and high-pressure gas, which has been precisely adjusted by the control mechanism 4, to be directly introduced into the casing 22 to drive the rotor 24 to rotate at high speed, thereby realizing the precise conversion of control commands into the mechanical motion of the steam turbine.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 In order to provide a stable mounting base for the hydraulic cylinder 44, the control mechanism 4 also includes a support block 42 and a fixing plate 43. The support block 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the tank body 41, the fixing plate 43 is fixedly connected to the top of the support block 42, and the hydraulic cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate 43. This hierarchical fixing structure ensures the high stability and reliability of the hydraulic cylinder 44 during operation.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 The integrated box 26 is also provided with a door 27, which is movably connected to one side of the integrated box 26 to protect the control module 39 and other structures installed inside.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The device also includes an integration mechanism 3, which is located inside the integration box 26. The integration mechanism 3 includes a base plate 31, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the box door 27, and a cross plate 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 31.
[0041] Reference Figure 4 The integrated mechanism 3 also includes a guide rail 33, a slider 34, and a clamping plate 35. The guide rail 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the cross plate 32 to provide guidance for the movement. The slider 34 is slidably connected to the top of the guide rail 33. The clamping plate 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 34 and is used to clamp the control module 39. The integrated mechanism 3 also includes a rotating column 36, a connecting rod 37, and a turntable 38. The rotating column 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 34 and the top of the turntable 38, respectively. The turntable 38 is rotatably connected to the slider 34 through the connecting rod 37. This structure allows the rotation of the turntable 38 to drive the clamping plate 35 to move radially, so as to realize the automatic clamping or loosening of the control module 39.
[0042] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: When the steam turbine needs to be started, the operator or the main control system sends a command to the control module 39 through the integrated box 26. The control module 39 is electrically connected to and controls the hydraulic cylinder 44 of the control mechanism 4 to start. The hydraulic cylinder 44 drives the hydraulic rod 45, and the hydraulic rod 45 drives the piston 46 to move axially inside the tank 41. The movement of the piston 46 precisely adjusts the flow gap between the inlet pipe 47 and the outlet pipe 48, thereby automatically controlling the flow rate of high temperature and high pressure gas through the outlet pipe 48. This controlled gas enters the casing 22 of the auxiliary component 2, pushing the rotor 24 to rotate. The rotor 24 drives the rotating rod 25 to output power, realizing precise control of the steam turbine start-up and shutdown process. The working exhaust gas is finally discharged through the exhaust pipe 28.
[0043] When maintenance or replacement of the control module 39 is required, the integrated mechanism 3 is activated, and the turntable 38 of the integrated mechanism 3 rotates. The turntable 38 drives the slider 34 through the rotating connecting rod 37 and the rotating column 36. The slider 34 is slidably connected to the guide rail 33 on the top of the cross plate 32. The radial movement of the slider 34 drives the fixedly connected clamping plate 35 to loosen or clamp the control module 39, realizing the automatic replacement of the control module. Throughout the process, the base 1, support plate 21, support block 42, fixed plate 43 and box door 27 and other structures provide reliable support for the stable operation and internal protection of the device.
