Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bearings, and in particular to a two-stage sliding thrust bearing structure and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The thrust bearing is mainly used to bear the axial thrust of the rotor during operation, so as to determine and maintain the relative position between the rotor and the mounting housing. However, with the continuous development of society, many equipment requirements also need to be further improved to meet the current development requirements. For example, the helical gearbox carries more and more power, and the flow and pressure requirements of the compressor blades are getting higher and higher. These changes will cause the axial force of the equipment rotor to increase significantly. At present, the main way to improve its ability to withstand axial force is to increase the thrust surface diameter of the sliding thrust bearing. However, when the thrust surface diameter increases, the average linear velocity of the surface will also increase. Since the thrust bearing surface temperature is positively correlated with its linear velocity, the bearing thrust surface temperature will increase with the increase of linear velocity. When the temperature is high, it is not conducive to the normal operation of the thrust bearing. Since the thrust bearing balances the axial force of the entire rotor, once it is damaged, the rotor will move axially, causing serious damage to the equipment, which will greatly increase the loss of the enterprise.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] See also Figure 1, which is a two-stage sliding thrust bearing structure. This structure can be referred to and extended to more than 3 levels according to actual needs. In order to facilitate installation, disassembly, inspection and subsequent maintenance, the present invention designs the thrust bearing structure on the side of the main shaft extension end. The thrust bearing can be quickly replaced without disassembling the equipment support housing and the main shaft. The adapter ring 1 is mainly used to connect the equipment support housing 20 and the thrust bearing sleeve, and is composed of an upper and lower halves. The thrust bearing end cover 2 acts as an oil barrier, and its right end face is the oil wedge thrust surface. During normal operation, an oil film of a certain thickness can be formed. To protect the rotor, the surface material is generally made of a softer material, Babbitt alloy. It can be re-sprayed after being worn out in abnormal circumstances. The thrust bearing end cover 2 body is provided with an axial displacement hole and a temperature sensor hole. The thrust bearing end cover 2 is connected to the adapter ring 1 by screws 13; the internal thrust The disc axial displacement sensor 3 monitors the axial displacement of the inner thrust disc 10, and the outer thrust disc axial displacement sensor 4 monitors the axial displacement of the outer thrust disc 5; the outer thrust disc 5 is connected to the main shaft 6 by screws 7, and the left and right sides of the outer thrust disc 5 are thrust surfaces, and the average surface roughness is generally less than 1.6; the main shaft 6 is a stepped main shaft; the thrust bearing end cover temperature sensor 9 monitors the thrust surface temperature of the thrust bearing end cover 2; the inner thrust disc 10 is connected to the main shaft 6 by screws 8, and the inner The left and right sides of the thrust disk 10 are thrust surfaces, and their average surface roughness is generally less than 1.6; the left and right end faces of the thrust bearing 11 are both oil wedge thrust surfaces, which can form a certain thickness of oil film during normal operation. To protect the rotor, the surface material is generally made of a softer material, Babbitt alloy. In case of abnormal wear, it can be re-sprayed. There is a temperature sensor hole on the body, which is connected to the adapter ring 1 by screws 12; the thrust bearing outer thrust surface temperature sensor 14 monitors the temperature of the left thrust surface of the thrust bearing 11, and the thrust bearing inner thrust surface temperature sensor 15 monitors the temperature of the right thrust surface of the thrust bearing 11; the radial thrust bearing 17 plays a radial support and bears a certain axial thrust. The radial bearing is a sliding tilting pad bearing, and the left end face is an oil wedge thrust surface. In normal operation, a certain thickness of oil film can be formed. To protect the rotor, the surface material is generally made of a softer material, Babbitt alloy. In case of abnormal wear, it can be re-sprayed. There is a temperature sensor hole on the body, which is connected to the equipment support housing 20 by screws 16. The relative distances between the thrust bearing end cover 2, the outer thrust disc 5, the inner thrust disc 10, the thrust bearing 11 and the radial thrust bearing 17 can be adjusted by adjusting the gaskets.

[0026] 1. Assembly and adjustment of thrust clearance

[0027] The radial thrust bearing 17 is sleeved on the main shaft 6 and fixedly connected to the equipment support housing 20 with screws 16; the inner thrust plate 10 is installed to the main shaft and fixed with screws 8; the lower half of the adapter ring 1 is installed and fixed with screws 19; then the thrust bearing 11, outer thrust plate 5 and thrust bearing end cover 2 are installed in sequence. After each part is installed, it needs to be tightened with screws. Forcefully push the main shaft to the left. Use a feeler gauge to check the clearances (L1) between the thrust bearing end cap 2 and the left end face of the outer thrust disc 5, (L2) between the right end face of the outer thrust disc 5 and the left end face of the thrust bearing 11, (L3) between the right end face of the thrust bearing 11 and the left end face of the inner thrust disc 10, and (L4) between the right end face of the inner thrust disc 10 and the left end face of the radial thrust bearing 17. L1 should equal L3 = 0, and L2 = L4 (the actual values ​​of L2 and L4 depend on the unit design requirements, generally ranging from 0.1mm to 0.3mm). If the measured values ​​do not meet the requirements of L1 = L3 = 0 and L2 = L4, use adjustment shims to adjust the relative distances between the thrust bearing end cap 2, outer thrust disc 5, inner thrust disc 10, thrust bearing 11, and radial thrust bearing 17 until the requirements of L1 = L3 = 0 and L2 = L4 are met. Then, install the upper half of adapter ring 1. After the above work is completed, the assembly is completed.

[0028] 2. Operation monitoring and fault diagnosis

[0029] Sufficient lubricating oil is constantly introduced through oil inlet holes 1, 2, and 3 to lubricate and cool the bearings. Lubricating oil enters oil chamber 3 through oil inlet hole 1 to lubricate the pads and left thrust surface of radial thrust bearing 17. Lubricating oil enters oil chamber 2 through oil inlet hole 2 to lubricate the left and right thrust surfaces of thrust bearing 11. Lubricating oil enters oil chamber 1 through oil inlet hole 3 to lubricate the right thrust surface of thrust bearing end cap 2. When the main shaft axial force is to the left, the right thrust surface of thrust bearing end cap 2 and the right thrust surface of thrust bearing 11 jointly bear the thrust. Conversely, when the main shaft axial force is to the right, the left thrust surface of thrust bearing 11 and the left thrust surface of radial thrust bearing 17 jointly bear the thrust. The simultaneous bearing of thrust by both thrust surfaces significantly improves their load-bearing capacity compared to a single surface. During operation, if the thrust plate displacement detected by the inner thrust plate axial displacement sensor 3 is greater than the installation value L2 or L4, and the temperature of the radial thrust bearing thrust surface temperature sensor 18 suddenly rises sharply and exceeds the alarm value (>85°C), it can be judged that the left thrust surface of the radial thrust bearing 17 may be damaged by friction, and it is necessary to stop the machine for inspection; if the thrust plate displacement detected by the inner thrust plate axial displacement sensor 3 is greater than the installation value L2 or L4, and the temperature of the thrust bearing inner thrust surface temperature sensor 15 suddenly rises sharply and exceeds the alarm value (>85°C), it can be judged that the right thrust surface of the thrust bearing 11 may be damaged by friction, and it is necessary to stop the machine for inspection. Stop the machine for inspection; if the thrust plate displacement detected by the outer thrust plate axial displacement sensor 4 is greater than the installation value L2 or L4, and the temperature of the thrust surface temperature sensor 14 of the thrust bearing suddenly rises sharply and exceeds the alarm value (>85°C), it can be judged that the left thrust surface of the thrust bearing 11 may be damaged by friction, and the machine needs to be stopped for inspection; if the thrust plate displacement detected by the outer thrust plate axial displacement sensor 4 is greater than the installation value L2 / L4, and the temperature of the thrust bearing end cover temperature sensor 9 suddenly rises sharply and exceeds the alarm value (>85°C), it can be judged that the right thrust surface of the thrust bearing 11 may be damaged by friction, and the machine needs to be stopped for inspection.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limiting. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
