Variable step damping thrust bearing

Abstract

The invention relates to a changeable stepped damping thrust bearing. The thrust bearing is mainly composed of a pressing head (1), a thrust disc (2), a plurality of movable bush assemblies, a plurality of fixed bushes (4) and a supporting ring (5), wherein the pressing head (1), the thrust disc (2), the movable bush assemblies, the fixed bushes (4) and the supporting ring (5) are arranged from top to bottom. The thrust disc (2) is connected with a rotary shaft of the bearing through the pressing head (1), and the thrust disc (2), the rotary shaft of the bearing and the pressing head are coaxially and fixedly connected. Each movable bush assembly and the corresponding fixed bush (4) are attached together to form a stepped variable-height bearing bush assembly. The multiple bearing bush assemblies are arranged on the supporting ring (5) in the circumferential direction to share the total load in the axial direction. The movable bush assemblies of the bearing bush assemblies are mounted in front of the fixed bushes (4) when seen from the rotating direction of the thrust disc (2). The changeable stepped damping thrust bearing can be used for designing of bearings which often work under variable working conditions, allow inclination of thrust discs and have high requirements for the bearing capacity and the damping performance of naval ships and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sliding bearings, and in particular relates to a sliding bearing with a variable step structure and vibration damping effect formed by the cooperation of a fixed thrust pad and a movable thrust pad supported by a damping pad. Variable step damping thrust bearing. Background technique [0002] The types of sliding bearings currently used in engineering are mainly fixed pad bearings [US Patent US5456535: Journal bearing, patent authorization date: October 10, 1995] and tilting pad bearings [US Patent US5795077: Tilting Pad Journal bearing, patent authorization Date: 18 August 1998]. The fixed shoe thrust bearings that bear axial force generally include plane multi-groove thrust bearings, oblique-plane thrust bearings and stepped surface thrust bearings. Among them, the common stepped bearing is the Rayleigh stepped bearing designed by Rayleigh in 1918. Through the variational method, he found that the bea...
