AI Technical Summary
The existing anti-splash oil device for the guide bearing of hydro-generator occupies a large space and is not easy to maintain, which affects the space utilization and maintenance convenience of the unit.
An anti-splashing device is designed, comprising a screw, a support cylinder, an oil baffle, a spring washer, and a nut. The oil baffle is directly fixed to the upper side of the guide plate and connected to the screw hole through the screw. The support cylinder is fitted on the outside of the screw, and the oil baffle abuts against the top of the support cylinder. Its inner diameter is smaller than that of the guide plate to avoid contact with rotating parts.
It enables the rapid installation and removal of the oil baffle, reduces the space occupied by the device, avoids wear and heat generation risks, and improves maintenance convenience and operational stability.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hydro-generator technology, specifically to a device for preventing oil splashing onto the guide bearing of a hydro-generator. Background Technology
[0002] During the operation of the guide bearing of a hydro-generator set, oil splashes out between the guide bearing and the sliding rotor. The resulting bearing oil mist will deteriorate the operating environment of the generator and affect its safe and stable operation. Over the years, various hydro-generator manufacturers have taken a variety of measures to prevent the generation of oil mist in hydro-generator bearings. One common measure is to install an oil baffle plate inside the bearing oil groove to prevent oil splashing from the guide bearing.
[0003] Setting up an oil baffle can suppress oil splashing, reduce oil mist generation, and regulate the oil flow direction in the oil trough, preventing local oil stagnation or turbulence, ensuring that the lubricating oil can quickly flow back to the cooler or bearing working surface, and maintaining stable oil circulation; no complex mechanical structure or control system is required.
[0004] However, there are certain limitations to installing oil baffles. Some units have limited space, and oil baffles cannot be installed in the oil tank. The installation position and size of the oil baffles are incompatible. If the position is too close, it is easy to interfere with rotating parts. If the size is too large or the arrangement is too dense, it will compress the internal space, resulting in poor oil flow and local heat accumulation, which will aggravate oil mist evaporation. At the same time, the oil baffles need to be removed when inspecting the guide bearings and adjusting and measuring the bearing gap, which is not convenient for maintenance.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose an anti-splashing oil device for the guide bearing of a hydro-generator to solve the problems of large space occupation and difficulty in maintenance of existing anti-splashing oil devices. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the above facts, in order to solve the problems of large space occupation and difficulty in maintenance of the oil splash prevention device in the prior art, the present invention further designed an oil splash prevention device for the guide bearing of a hydro generator.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] An oil splash prevention device for a guide bearing of a hydro generator includes a screw, a support cylinder, an oil baffle, a spring washer, and a nut;
[0009] The top of the guide plate is provided with a screw hole, the screw rod is connected to the screw hole, the support cylinder is fitted on the outside of the screw rod, the oil baffle and spring washer pass through the screw rod in sequence, and the nut presses the spring washer flat.
[0010] Furthermore: the bottom of the oil baffle plate abuts against the top of the supporting cylinder.
[0011] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the oil baffle is smaller than the inner diameter of the guide plate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0013] 1. In this invention, the oil baffle is directly fixed to the upper side of the guide plate, eliminating the need for a dedicated engagement position in the oil trough.
[0014] 2. The present invention has a simple structure, occupies little space, and does not require disassembly of the core bearing components for installation. It can be quickly added or adjusted during unit maintenance.
[0015] 3. During maintenance, the oil baffle and guide plate can be removed together.
[0016] 4. This invention does not come into contact with rotating parts, thus avoiding the risk of wear, heat generation, or scratches on the shaft surface. It requires no additional power sources such as air or electricity, avoiding the safety hazards of contact seals and the energy consumption of active seals, and has strong long-term operational stability.
