Screw compressor having lubricating oil system

摘要

Providing a screw compressor 1 having a lubricating oil system, the compressor being provided with a plurality of radial bearings 5 and a plurality of thrust bearings 6, a rotor shaft 2a or 3a is supported rotation-freely by each bearing, wherein at least one radial bearing 5 or at least one thrust bearing is provided with a hole space 25 or 34 with a bottom, the hole space being bored in the radial bearing and the thrust bearing so that a temperature-detecting terminal 26 is inserted in the hole space 25 or 34; at least one penetrating hole 28 or 35 is provided at the casing wall 1c of a casing that houses the radial bearing 5, so that the outside of the casing communicates with a space s1 for inserting the radial bearing, through the penetrating hole, the space s1 28 or 35 being formed inside of the casing wall; the temperature-detecting terminal 26 together with a sheath tube 27 is led into the space s1 through the penetrating hole 28 or 35.

主权项

1. A screw compressor having a lubricating oil system, the compressor comprising:
a casing; a rotor shaft; and at least one radial bearing and a plurality of thrust bearings, wherein the plurality of thrust bearings are attached to a casing wall of the casing at a position closer to an end side of the rotor shaft than the radial bearing, wherein the rotor shaft is supported rotation-freely by each bearing, wherein the radial bearing is provided with a flange part arranged on one end side of the radial bearing along an axial direction, the flange part having a diameter that is greater than a diameter of the rest of the radial bearing, wherein a hole space which has only one end opened, the open end being provided on a surface of the flange part and a temperature-detecting terminal is inserted through the open end in the radial bearing along an axis direction of the rotor shaft and a penetrating hole for communicating the hole space with an area outside of the casing is provided in the casing wall, wherein a sheath tube integrally formed with the temperature-detecting terminal is led into the hole space from the outside of the casing through the penetrating hole, and a temperature of the radial bearing detected at the temperature-detecting terminal is transferred to the area outside of the casing via a lead wire in the sheath tube, wherein the thrust bearings are mounted on the rotor shaft, wherein the rotor shaft on which the thrust bearings are fitted is smaller than the diameter of the rotor shaft where the radial bearing is mounted and that a step is provided between the smaller diameter part and the larger diameter part so that a sleeve configured with the thrust bearing is positionally fixed by contacting a front edge of the sleeve with the step, wherein the thrust bearing comprises a thrust member; the thrust member further comprising a disc; a pads-retaining member provided at each side of the disc; and a plurality of tilting pads are circumferentially provided in the space between the disc and the pads-retaining member, wherein the hole space having the open end is provided on one of the tilting pads so that the hole space is arranged in the radial direction parallel to a bearing surface of the tilting pad with regard to the disc, and the open end of the hole space is arranged toward a space for charging and discharging lube oil, the space being formed between the casing wall and the area where the thrust bearing is placed, and wherein the temperature-detecting terminal is guided radially and axially through a space located between an outer diameter of the radial bearing and an internal diameter of the casing.
