[0002] The squeeze film damper is a new technology developed in the 1960s. Due to its remarkable vibration reduction effect, simple structure, small occupied space, and relatively easy manufacturing, it has received high attention in the 1980s and was first applied to aeroengines. Currently, it has become a typical design for reducing the vibration of ships and industrial gas turbines, improving stability, and extending service life.

[0003] The existing oil film damper of a gas turbine usually sets a special elastic ring between the support casing and the support sleeve. The oil film circulates between the support casing, the support sleeve, and the elastic ring bracket to achieve the purpose of the oil film absorbing the vibration energy of the rotor. This mechanism is relatively complex, not only inconvenient for maintenance, but also has a short service life of the oil film damper, affecting the normal use of the gas turbine.

A group of oil supply ports are arranged inside the cantilever end of the support casing. An oil outlet hole for supplying oil to the bearing and a throttle hole passing through the support casing are arranged at the end of each oil supply port.

[0007] A through hole is formed in the middle of the support casing, and a group of waist-shaped grooves penetrating the support casing are uniformly arranged on one side of the through hole.

[0008] A stepped hole is arranged near the cantilever end of the support casing. A counterbore is arranged outside the stepped hole, and a bearing hole is arranged outside the counterbore. A bearing for supporting the rotor is installed in the bearing hole.

[0009] A group of oil supply ports are uniformly arranged outside the stepped hole. An oil outlet hole for supplying oil to the bearing and a throttle hole penetrating the support casing are arranged at one end of each oil supply port close to the bearing. A group of throttle holes are communicated through an oil groove arranged on the cylindrical surface of the support casing.

[0017] The utility model is further described in detail below according to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0018] refer to Figures 1 to 4 The device includes a support casing 110, the flange end of which is connected and fixed to the stator casing of the gas turbine. A through hole 115 is provided in the middle of the support casing 110, and a group of waist grooves 111 penetrating the support casing 110 are evenly provided on one side of the through hole 115, so that the support casing 110 moves radially when subjected to force, thereby reducing the bending vibration generated when the rotor moves.

[0019] refer to Figure 2 , 3 A step hole 116 is provided near the cantilever end of the through hole 115, a countersunk hole 119 is provided outside the step hole 116, a bearing hole 121 is provided outside the countersunk hole 119, and a bearing 140 for supporting the rotor is installed in the bearing hole 121.

[0020] refer to Figure 2 , 3, a group of oil supply ports 117 are evenly arranged outside the stepped hole 116. An oil outlet hole 118 for supplying oil to the bearing 140 is arranged at one end of each oil supply port 117 close to the bearing to ensure the lubrication of the bearing 140. A throttling hole 113 penetrating the support casing 110 is arranged on one side of the oil outlet hole 118. A group of throttling holes 113 are communicated through an oil groove 112 arranged on the cylindrical surface of the support casing 110. Sealing grooves 114 are respectively arranged on both sides of the oil groove 112, and a sealing ring 130 is arranged in each sealing groove 114.

[0021] Reference Figure 5 , when the lubricating oil enters the support casing 110 through the oil supply port 117, a part of the lubricating oil is distributed to the bearing 140 through the oil outlet hole 118 to play a lubricating role, and another part of the lubricating oil enters the oil groove 112 through the throttling hole 113 above. The oil in the oil groove 112 enters the closed space formed by the support casing 110, the support sleeve 120, and the sealing ring 130. Under the action of extrusion, the lubricating oil moves in both the left and right directions respectively. The oil forms an oil film in the closed space formed by the support casing 110, the support sleeve 120, and the sealing ring 130. This oil film can absorb the transmitted vibration and make the whole system more stable. The support casing is designed with a pre-eccentric structure. After installation, affected by the gravity, the eccentricity will become the center line, making the whole damper more stable.

[0022] A group of oil supply ports 117 are arranged inside the cantilever end of the support casing 110. An oil outlet hole 118 for supplying oil to the bearing 140 and a throttling hole 113 passing through the support casing 110 are arranged at the end of each oil supply port 117. A group of throttling holes 113 are communicated with the oil groove 112. The oil film circulates in the closed space formed by the support casing 110, the support sleeve 120, and the sealing rings 130 on both sides. The structure is simple, easy to maintain, and has a long service life.
