Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of main bearing seats, in particular to a main bearing seat of a low-speed marine diesel engine. Background Art
[0002] The main bearing seat of a low-speed marine diesel engine is located inside the engine base, on which the main bearing is placed to support and fix the crankshaft. Each main bearing is connected to a lubricating oil pipeline. When the diesel engine is working normally, an oil film will be established between the rotating crankshaft and the bearing to ensure effective lubrication of the crankshaft. If the bearing load exceeds the limit and destroys the establishment of the oil film, it will cause shaft diameter strain or dry grinding overheating. In severe cases, the high temperature of friction will bring the risk of fire. Usually, since the front end of the diesel engine needs to be equipped with a frequency modulation wheel or a torsional vibration damper, the bearing load of the first main bearing (main bearing No. 1) located at the front end of the diesel engine is a position that needs special consideration during design.
[0003] As the requirements for ship economy and energy efficiency become higher and higher, the design of ship propulsion shafting has also undergone new changes. In most cases, in order to meet the requirements of shafting torsional vibration, the front end of the diesel engine needs to be equipped with a larger and heavier frequency modulation wheel or torsional vibration damper, which directly causes the bearing load of the No. 1 main bearing to exceed the limit value. In order to avoid this problem, the concept of the No. 0 main bearing is introduced at the front end of the diesel engine, that is, an extension shaft is added to the front end of the crankshaft, and the bearing load of the No. 1 main bearing is shared by the specially designed No. 0 main bearing, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown. Limited by the space and structure of the front end of the diesel engine, the design of the zero main bearing is different from the conventional main bearing structure and cannot be directly arranged on the engine base. It needs to be fixed with the help of the front cover of the diesel engine. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the convenience of bearing centering and clearance adjustment during installation. Therefore, a main bearing seat for a marine low-speed diesel engine is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0036] This solution: Preparation before installation: put the machine base with crankshaft assembly on the platform, complete the horizontal adjustment of the machine base and tighten the connecting bolts; installation and adjustment of the expansion shaft: install two studs at the diagonal position of the free end face of the crankshaft, lift the expansion shaft and align it with the free end face of the crankshaft. Arrange an I-beam under the expansion shaft, and then use a magnetic bracket to place two dial indicators on the shaft diameter of the expansion shaft, one horizontal and one vertical, as shown below Figure 3As shown. Adjust the dial indicator to zero position and adjust the position of the expansion shaft until the runout is less than 0.15mm. Tighten the expansion shaft bolts symmetrically and drill to install the locating pin 4. Installation of the front cover: Apply sealant to the connection surface between the front cover and the base, lift the front lower cover to the installation position, put it in place and align the baffle flange with the base. Adjust the upper flange of the lower cover to be 0-1mm higher than the upper plane of the base. Install the fasteners between the cover and the base and install the locating pin 4. Installation and adjustment of the zero main bearing seat: Clean the bearing seat hole before installation, install the lower bearing shell and the pressure shoe screw, and keep the crankshaft of the #1 cylinder at the top dead center position of the diesel engine.

Arrange a hydraulic jack under the expansion shaft to lift the expansion shaft, and insert and adjust the processed adjustment gasket 6 into place after lifting the bearing seat with the four adjustment screws 7. Remove the four adjustment screws 7, loosen the hydraulic jack, drill holes at the bottom of the bearing seat to install the locating pin 4, and the bearing seat installation and adjustment are now complete. Then install the upper bearing shell, bearing cover, tighten the bolts, and install the lubricating oil pipe system.
