Abstract
An apparatus for disassembling and assembling a gas turbine combustor comprises a hand assembly for holding a combustor component of a gas turbine, an inserting and drawing section which supports the hand assembly and moves the same in parallel to a central axis of the combustor component and a retainer for securing the inserting and drawing section onto a casing which constitutes an outer section of the gas turbine.
Claims42
An apparatus for disassembling and assembling a gas turbine combustor, comprising:
- a hand assembly for holding a combustor component of a gas turbine;
- an inserting and drawing section which supports the hand assembly and moves the same in parallel to a central axis of the combustor component;
- and
- a retainer for securing the inserting and drawing section onto a casing which constitutes an outer section of the gas turbine, said retainer comprising:
- an annular rail set having a plurality of supporting sections which are provided in a circumferential direction of the casing of the gas turbine;
- and
- a travel device which supports the inserting and drawing section and which moves along the supporting sections in the circumferential direction of the gas turbine to move the hand assembly in the circumferential direction.
An apparatus for disassembling and assembling a gas turbine combustor, comprising:
- a hand assembly for holding a combustor component of a gas turbine;
- an inserting and drawing section which supports the hand assembly and moves the same in parallel to a central axis of the combustor component;
- a retainer for securing the inserting and drawing section onto a casing which constitutes an outer section of the gas turbine,
- wherein said inserting and drawing section comprises a frame to which the retainer is secured and a hand mounting section which travels on the frame in a direction for inserting and drawing out the combustor component and at least one link mechanism section which connects together said hand mounting section and said hand assembly so as to be allowed to rock in two independent directions, said at least one link mechanism section having at least three links.
