A multi-impeller passive-rotating-stirring-type rotary drilling rig for open caissons includes a hollow main drill pipe, a drill bit, four cutting edges, four impeller shafts, four passive impellers and a rotation bracket. Through being uniformly distributed at a peripheral of the drilling rig, four passive impellers contact with a hole wall of a borehole during the drilling process for passively generating relative rotation opposite to the rotation direction of the drill bit, so as to accelerate sufficient mixing of silt and water for forming mud during the drilling process.

A variable-diameter full-support mandrel structure with a slider-type cross section for preventing a reverse rotation of a ratchet wheel includes a movable mandrel segment and a straight shank, and the movable mandrel segment and the straight shank are connected through a quick-disconnect universal joint. A rotating shaft of the movable mandrel segment is provided with a connecting rod mounting flange, a ratchet wheel, a reverse ratchet wheel, a bearing, and a limit clamp ring in sequence. An outer ring of the bearing is provided with a pawl mounting frame. The connecting rod mounting flange and the pawl mounting frame are respectively hinged to a long connecting rod and a short connecting rod, and the long connecting rod and the short connecting rod are hinged to slider components in an outer ring. The slider component has a Z-shaped structure composed of two layers of arc blocks.

An elastic double-support variable-diameter mandrel for bending of an aircraft engine-specific metal conduit includes a frame receiving pipe, an elastic outer frame and an inner hydraulic component. In the inner hydraulic component, an inner chamber of an elastic membrane is filled with a liquid, a tail end of the elastic membrane is provided with an opening, the opening communicates with a first end of a liquid delivery pipe through a pipe joint, and a second end of the liquid delivery pipe is connected to an external hydraulic system. The elastic outer frame is a flexible single unit composed of a tie rod and an elastic mesh structure. The tie rod includes an elastic traction segment, a straight segment and a pull ring. The elastic mesh structure includes wavy metal strip circumferences and anti-fatigue elastic connectors. The frame receiving pipe is sleeved outside the elastic outer frame/inner hydraulic component.
