[0002] The stern shaft bearing is an important part of the ship propulsion system, and its working condition directly affects the safety of the ship sailing. By measuring the bearing temperature regularly, abnormal conditions such as bearing overheating can be found in time, and bearing damage caused by high temperature can be avoided, so as to ensure the normal operation and safe navigation of the ship. Abnormal rise of bearing temperature is often a precursor of failure. By monitoring the bearing temperature, early warning can be made, and appropriate maintenance measures can be taken to prevent greater failure caused by bearing overheating and reduce maintenance cost and downtime. The temperature of the stern shaft bearing is usually measured by installing a temperature sensor. However, the stern shaft bearing temperature sensor is not easy to install. The stern shaft bearing is often installed in the shaft hub, and the shaft hub is welded with the protection pipe. In particular, the installation of the stern shaft rear bearing temperature sensor is difficult because the rear end surface of the rear shaft hub is outside the hull plate, and the stern shaft bearing temperature sensor cannot be installed directly from the stern. Therefore, the rear bearing temperature sensor often needs to be inserted from the front shaft hub, pass through the stern pipe to the rear bearing position, and the cable of the rear bearing temperature sensor often needs to be several meters long. The gap between the stern pipe and the stern shaft is often small, making it difficult to install and fix the rear bearing temperature sensor. SUMMARY

[0006] Further, the tail end of the second protection pipe has an outwardly expanding flared portion.
[0007] Further, the flared portion and the tail end of the second protection pipe are connected by a circular arc.
[0008] Further, the flared portion and the second protection pipe are integrally formed.
[0009] Further, the thickness of the second protection pipe is 1-2mm.
[0010] Further, two ends of the second protection pipe are fixed in the stern tube by support steel plates respectively.
[0011] Further, the second protection pipe is made of stainless steel.
[0012] Further, the stern tube is provided with a plurality of spaced apart openings, the plurality of openings correspond to the plurality of fixing supports one by one, the fixing support is inserted into the stern tube from the opening, and the fixing support is fixed with the stern tube by welding.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model at least include:
[0014] The first protection pipe extends from the front shaft hub to the stern tube, and reaches the rear shaft hub after passing through the transverse through hole of the fixing support in sequence, the transverse through hole plays a guiding and positioning role, so that the pipe penetrating efficiency of the first protection pipe can be improved and the pipe penetrating difficulty can be reduced, so that the smooth installation and fixation of the rear bearing temperature sensor are realized, and the operation labor intensity of the operating personnel is reduced.
