Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil retaining devices, in particular to an oil retaining device for a steam turbine. Background Art

[0002] The oil retainer ring used in steam turbine is a key component in the steam turbine system. Its main function is to control and prevent the loss of oil to ensure that the shaft maintains its stability and reliability.

[0003] The oil retaining ring usually includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The inner ring has a relatively small diameter and is used to control the oil film thickness to ensure that the bearings of the steam turbine are fully lubricated and avoid premature wear of the bearings due to too thin an oil film. The outer ring has a relatively large diameter and its main function is to prevent the oil from being lost during the operation of the steam turbine and to ensure the normal operation of the oil circulation system, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the steam turbine. For example, the Chinese utility model patent disclosed in the publication number CN211008778U: An oil retaining device for a steam turbine, wherein a protective edge is provided in the middle of both sides of the baffle body, through which the width of the baffle body can be increased. The width can increase the protection effect, and a fixing ring is clamped on the outside of the shaft sleeve, and a widened oil deflector is installed on the outside of the fixing ring through fixed teeth. The widened oil deflector can improve the oil deflection effect and increase the sealing performance. However, since the widened oil deflector needs to be tightly connected with the bearing or the outside of the shaft, and the oil deflector is installed inside the shaft or the outside of the bearing to follow the shaft or bearing to rotate, because with the rotation of the shaft, wear may occur between the oil deflector and the shaft or bearing, resulting in an increase in the gap. In addition, the oxidation and contamination of the lubricating oil in a high temperature and high pressure environment will also reduce its viscosity, making it easier for the lubricating oil to flow out of the gap.
