Problems solved by technology

Therefore, when the inner peripheral side 52a of the foil tape 52 displaces in the axial direction and jumps out, it may hinder the function as a normal bearing, causing various problems (frictional resistance of the bearing portion increases, rotation shaft 51 damage, etc.)

Abstract

A foil bearing device comprises a rotary shaft (2), a bearing inner ring (3) press-fitted to the outer periphery of the rotary shaft (2), a foil (4) disposed on the outer periphery of the bearing inner ring (3), and a bearing outer ring (5) provided on the outer periphery of the foil (4). Furthermore, the bearing inner ring (3) is provided with a pair of foil displacement restricting parts (6, 7) for restricting the axial displacement of the inner peripheral side (4a) of the foil (4).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a foil bearing device comprising a thin-plate foil arranged on the outer circumference of a rotating shaft and a bearing outer ring arranged on the outer circumference of the foil, by forming air between the rotating shaft and the foil. layer without oil to support the rotating shaft so that it can rotate freely. Background technique [0002] This foil bearing device is a bearing device suitable for use in turbo compressors, turbochargers, gas turbines, and the like because it is not necessary to supply oil and can support a rotating shaft that rotates at a high speed. [0003] As shown in FIG. 1 , a conventional foil bearing device 50 includes a rotating shaft 51 , a foil 52 wound around the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 51 in multiple layers, and a bearing outer ring 53 provided on the outer circumference of the foil 52 . A pair of stoppers 54 and 54 are provided at both ends of the bearing outer ring 53 ...
