[0023] Hereinafter, the terms "first" and "second" are only for the purpose of explanation and should not be understood as explicitly or implicitly indicating relative importance or implying the number of the technical features to be described. Therefore, the features limited by "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.
[0024] In the present disclosure, flowcharts are used to explain the operations performed by the system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the previous or subsequent operations are not necessarily executed exactly in order. On the contrary, each step can be processed in reverse order or simultaneously. At the same time, other operations can be added to these processes, or the operations of one or more steps can be removed from these processes.
[0025] In the field of power machinery, rotor blade adjusters are crucial components for regulating fluid flow rate and pressure. With the continuous advancement of industrial technology, rotor blade adjusters require higher wear resistance and lubricity to ensure long-term stable operation.
[0026] Currently, rotor blade adjustment devices in related technologies typically use an oil pump to supply oil, and an adjustment unit to drive the rotation of the blade shaft, thereby adjusting the blade angle. However, these components often experience reduced adjustment accuracy and eventual failure due to friction and wear during prolonged operation.
[0027] This disclosure proposes a wear-resistant rotor blade adjustment device to solve problems in related technologies. By applying molybdenum disulfide grease to the surface of the shoe, wear and friction coefficient are significantly reduced, improving wear resistance and abrasion reduction. At the same time, molybdenum disulfide grease further improves the thermal stability and sealing properties of the grease, making blade angle adjustment smoother and more stable, thereby achieving higher wear resistance and lubrication effect, and extending the service life of the device.
[0028] Referring to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the wear-resistant rotor blade adjustment device, the wear-resistant rotor blade adjustment device is Includes an oil pump 1, an adjustment unit 2, and a blade shaft 3. The oil pump 1 is connected to the adjustment unit 2 and is used to supply high-pressure oil to the adjustment unit 2. The adjustment unit 2 is connected to the blade shaft 3 and is used to drive the rotation of the blade shaft 3 with high-pressure oil and to adjust the angle of the blades. The adjustment unit 2 includes a shoe 21, on which surface grease is applied, and the surface grease is molybdenum disulfide.
[0029] In this disclosure, a high-pressure oil solution is supplied to an adjustment unit 2 by an oil pump 1, and a shoe 21 inside the adjustment unit 2 (its surface is coated with molybdenum disulfide surface grease to enhance wear resistance) drives the rotation of the blade shaft 3 by the oil solution pressure, thereby precisely adjusting the blade angle and achieving wear resistance adjustment of the rotor blade.
[0030] The dropping point of a surface grease can reflect the upper limit of its operating temperature. Once a surface grease reaches its dropping point, it loses its ability to adhere to metal surfaces. Generally, surface greases should be used under temperature conditions of 20-30°C or less above the dropping point. The operating ambient temperature of an intake fan is 100-120°C, the dropping point of molybdenum disulfide is 194°C, and the maximum allowable temperature is 164°C. Therefore, this disclosure selects molybdenum disulfide as the surface grease to form a protective plating layer on the shoe working surface, thereby reducing the initial surface roughness of the shoe working surface during wear.
[0031] Furthermore, this disclosure allows for limiting the amount of blade oscillation, which refers to the amount of dynamic deformation of a blade in a rotating machine due to various factors, and is usually called blade bounce. The amount of blade oscillation is the magnitude of the amount of dynamic deformation of the blade during rotation. The amount of blade oscillation can reflect the gap in the shoe and is used to determine the degree of shoe wear. The larger the amount of blade oscillation, the larger the gap in the shoe becomes, and the more severe the degree of shoe wear becomes. Therefore, in this disclosure, the amount of blade oscillation needs to be between 3 mm and 5 mm.
[0032] Specifically, for ease of understanding, as shown in Figure 2, this disclosure provides a more specific wear-resistant rotor blade conditioning device.
[0033] In some embodiments, the material of the shoe 21 may be tin, aluminum, iron, nickel, or manganese. In this disclosure, by selecting these materials, the wear resistance, hardness, and service life of the shoe can be further improved to adapt to different operating environments and load requirements, thereby avoiding excessive relative hardness between the adjustment ring and the shoe, which could severely damage the shoe.
[0034] Specifically, in the shoe material of this disclosure, the mass proportion of tin (Sn) is reduced, aluminum (Al), which has better wear resistance and very high oxidation and corrosion resistance, is added, the iron (Fe) content is further increased, and nickel (Ni) is newly added to further enhance the hardness and wear resistance of the alloy. Since it is considered that a low manganese (Mn) content helps to improve the electrochemical corrosion resistance of copper-based alloys, a small amount of manganese (Mn) is added to further improve the wear resistance of the shoe.
[0035] In some embodiments, the adjustment unit 2 further includes an adjustment ring 22 and an adjustment arm 23, the adjustment ring 22 and the adjustment arm 23 being connected by a shoe 21, the adjustment ring 22 being used by the shoe 21 to drive the rotation of the adjustment arm 23, that is, the adjustment ring 22 can be driven by the shoe 21 to rotate the adjustment arm 23, thereby achieving angle adjustment of the blades.
[0036] In the rotor blade adjustment process, the shoe and the adjustment ring come into contact with each other, generating relative frictional motion. During this relative frictional motion, it is necessary to overcome the resistance caused by the unevenness of the component surfaces, and wear of the components occurs during the motion. Therefore, the roughness of the shoe surface affects the degree of frictional motion. Due to the above factors, this disclosure employs a shoe on which molybdenum disulfide surface grease is applied to the surface.
[0037] In some embodiments, the adjustment unit 2 further includes an adjustment disc 24, and the adjustment ring 22 includes an inner adjustment ring 221 and an outer adjustment ring 222, the outer circle of the adjustment disc 24 is fixed by the inner adjustment ring 221 and the outer adjustment ring 222 to clamp the shoe, and the adjustment disc 24 is used to drive the inner adjustment ring 221, the outer adjustment ring 222 and the shoe 21 to reciprocate in the transmission axis direction, and further to precisely adjust the blade angle.
[0038] In some embodiments, the shaft hole of the shoe 21 is fitted onto the pin shaft of the adjustment arm 23 and is used to drive the adjustment arm to rotate axially in a direction perpendicular to the transmission shaft. This method of rotation allows for more flexible and precise adjustment of the blade angle.
[0039] In some embodiments, one end of the blade shaft 3 is connected to an adjustment arm 23, and the other end of the blade shaft 3 is connected to a blade. The blade shaft 3 rotates due to the rotation of the adjustment arm 23 and is used to adjust the angle of the blade.
[0040] In some embodiments, the adjustment disc 24 includes a first-stage adjustment disc and a second-stage adjustment disc, which are connected by a transmission shaft and used to drive the two-stage blades to open and close synchronously. That is, when adjusting the angle of the first-stage blade, the angle of the second-stage blade is also adjusted accordingly, thereby ensuring the coordination and stability of the entire rotor blade adjustment device.
[0041] In some embodiments, the adjustment unit 2 further includes a hydraulic cylinder 25, and an oil pump 1 is connected to the hydraulic cylinder 25 and used to supply high-pressure oil to the hydraulic cylinder 25 and propel the piston of the hydraulic cylinder 25 to reciprocate, and the piston of the hydraulic cylinder 25 is connected to an adjustment disc 24 and used to drive the movement of the adjustment disc.
[0042] The hydraulic cylinder 25 is connected to the oil pump 1 and receives high-pressure oil supplied from the oil pump 1. When the oil pump 1 supplies high-pressure oil to the hydraulic cylinder 25, the piston of the hydraulic cylinder 25 reciprocates. Since the piston is connected to the adjustment disc 24, the movement of the piston drives the movement of the adjustment disc 24, thereby achieving precise angle adjustment with respect to the blades. Such a design not only improves adjustment accuracy but also gives the entire rotor blade adjustment device higher response speed and stability.
[0043] In some embodiments, the rotor blade adjustment device further includes a sensor 4 and a control system 5, the sensor 4 being connected to the control system 5 and also to the blade, and the sensor 4 is used to monitor the blade state and transmit the blade state to the control system.
[0044] In some embodiments, the control system 5 is connected to the oil pump 1 and is used to control the operating state of the oil pump 1 according to the impeller state.
[0045] This disclosure provides a system that uses a sensor 4 to monitor the condition of the blades (e.g., deformation, cracks, vibration, and temperature of the blades) in real time and transmits this information to a control system 5. The control system 5 analyzes the sensor data to make decisions and then adjusts the operating conditions of the oil pump 1, such as flow rate and pressure, based on these decisions, thereby enabling precise adjustment of the blade angle.
[0046] In the rotor blade adjustment device, the sensor 4, control system 5, and oil pump 1 form a closed-loop control system. The sensor is responsible for collecting blade state information, the control system is responsible for analysis and decision-making, and the oil pump adjusts its operating state according to the commands of the control system, thereby ensuring accurate adjustment of the blade angle and stable operation of the system. This improves the efficiency and reliability of the rotor blade adjustment device.
[0047] As described above, the wear-resistant rotor blade adjustment device of this disclosure includes an oil pump, an adjustment unit, and a blade shaft. The oil pump is connected to the adjustment unit and is used to supply high-pressure oil to the adjustment unit. The adjustment unit is connected to the blade shaft and is used to drive the rotation of the blade shaft with high-pressure oil and to adjust the blade angle. The adjustment unit includes a shoe, and surface grease is applied to the surface of the shoe. The surface grease is molybdenum disulfide. By applying molybdenum disulfide grease to the surface of the shoe, wear and friction coefficient are reduced, wear resistance and abrasion reduction performance are improved, the thermal stability and sealing performance of the grease are improved, and thereby higher wear resistance and lubrication effect are achieved when adjusting the blade angle.
