Turbine-unit disassembling method and turbine unit
View Patent ↗Supports are provided on the upper outer casing of each turbine of a turbine unit, and the upper inner casing of the turbine is temporarily placed on the supports of the upper outer casing, which is temporarily placed on the operating floor. By placing the casings temporarily in that way, a large space can be secured for the inspection of the turbine unit, and the inspection can be carried out quickly, which increases the operation ratio of the whole plant including the turbine unit. This invention is useful mainly for turbine units and their overhaul.
1. A turbine unit comprising:
a rotor with blades;
an upper inner casing and a lower casing for enclosing the rotor; and
an upper outer casing for covering the upper inner casing,
the upper outer casing having supports which are so positioned as to receive and support the bottom surface of the upper inner casing outside the upper outer casing.
2. A turbine unit comprising:
a rotor with blades;
an upper inner casing and a lower casing for enclosing the rotor; and
an upper outer casing for covering the upper inner casing, the upper outer casing having reinforcing ribs on its outer surfaces and supports which are provided on the ribs in such positions as to receive and support the bottom surface of the upper inner casing.
3. A turbine unit as claimed in claim 2 , wherein each of said supports on the upper inner casings each turbine has a stopper protruding upward from its top surface.
4. A turbine unit comprising:
a rotor with blades;
an upper inner casing and a lower casing for enclosing the rotor; and
an upper outer casing for covering the upper inner casing;
the upper outer casing having supports which are so positioned as to receive and support the bottom surface of the upper inner casing outside the upper outer casing;
wherein each of said supports on the upper inner casing of each turbine has a stopper protruding upward from its top surface.
