Description
Technical Field

[0002] The tilting pad bearing is mainly composed of a bearing seat, a tilting pad, a bearing cover, an oil inlet hole, etc. The existing tilting pad bearings used in turbine chlorine compressors mainly rely on the relative movement of the shaft and the bearing to bring in lubricating oil. When the bearing is working, the shaft diameter and the tilting pad on the tilting pad bearing move relative to each other, bringing the lubricating oil between the two friction surfaces, and the fluid dynamic pressure of the lubricating oil film forms a load-bearing oil wedge between the tilting pad surface and the journal surface, which completely separates the two surfaces from contact.
[0003] The existing tilting pad bearings mainly rely on the relative movement of the shaft and the bearing to bring in lubricating oil, and cannot be effectively lubricated during startup, shutdown, and low-speed stages. Because the bearings have no active oil supply method, the lubricating oil is passively brought in by the high-speed relative movement of the shaft and the bearing. During the entire process of equipment startup, operation, and shutdown, effective lubrication cannot be maintained, resulting in bearing wear and increased vibration amplitude of the shaft. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide an oil-injected tilting pad bearing for a chlorine compressor, which can realize active oil feeding, maintain effective lubrication during the whole process of equipment startup, operation and shutdown, reduce bearing wear and reduce the vibration amplitude of the shaft.

[0007] A further improvement of the utility model is that the upper and lower ends of the arc-shaped bearing shell are respectively provided with connecting shafts, and the bearing cover is provided with a rotating groove matched with the connecting shaft, and the connecting shaft is rotatably connected in the rotating groove.
[0008] A further improvement of the utility model is that the oil inlet passage is connected to the rotation groove of the bearing cover located below, and the connecting shaft at the lower end of the arc-shaped bearing shell is a hollow shaft and is connected to the oil inlet passage.
[0009] A further improvement of the utility model is that the number of the oil inlet passages corresponds to the number of the arc-shaped bearing shells, and the oil inlet passage of each arc-shaped bearing shell is independently arranged.
[0010] A further improvement of the utility model is that an annular groove is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the annular bearing seat, and an oil inlet of the oil inlet circuit is provided in the annular groove.
