Description
- The present invention relates to turbomachinery.
- A turbomachine such as a turbocompressor or a supercharger is provided with an impeller that is rotatively driven by rotative power that is transmitted from a shaft.
- In this kind of turbomachinery, for example, a male screw and a female screw are formed on an impeller and a shaft as shown in
Patent Document 1 andPatent Document 2. The impeller and the shaft are then fastened by screwing together of the male screw and the female screw. -
- [Patent Document 1] Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Application, First Publication No.
H05-52356 - [Patent Document 2] Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Application, First Publication No.
H05-57450 - However, in a constitution in which a female screw and a male screw are formed on the impeller and the shaft as shown in
Patent Document 1 andPatent Document 2, when fastening the impeller and the shaft, it is necessary to rotatively move the impeller with respect to the shaft. - That is to say, when attaching the impeller to the shaft, it is necessary, while rotatively moving the impeller, to gradually bring it close to the shaft.
- For this reason, the movement amount of the impeller when attaching the impeller to the shaft is a great deal more than the case of attaching the impeller to the shaft without rotatively moving it. Accordingly, in the methods of
Patent Document 1 andPatent Document 2, the amount of work required when fastening the impeller and the shaft ends up increasing. - Also, in order to prevent the impeller and the shaft from shifting in the rotation direction, it is preferable for sufficient frictional force to exist between the impeller and the shaft. For that reason, during attachment of the impeller to the shaft, after the impeller makes contact with the seating surface of the shaft, it is preferable to push the impeller further to the shaft side, and cause the impeller to undergo elastic deformation.
- However, after the impeller makes contact with the seating surface, the frictional resistance increases due to the frictional force that works between the impeller and the seating surface, and so the amount of work for pushing in the impeller to the shaft side increases.
- On the other hand, firmly fastening the impeller and the shaft with hardly no rotational movement of the impeller with respect to the shaft is generally performed by using a tension bolt.
- However, in the case of fastening the impeller and the shaft using a tension bolt, complex and large equipment such as a hydraulic tensioner is separately required.
- The present invention was achieved in view of the above circumstances, and has as its object to, in a turbomachinery that is provided with an impeller and a shaft that are to be fastened, eliminating the need for complicated and large equipment and reducing the amount of work during fastening when fastening the impeller to the shaft.
-
US2010525A discloses turbomachinery according to the precharacterizing portion ofclaim 1. - The invention is in the turbomachine of
claim 1. - In the present invention, the impeller and the shaft are fastened by the two-way screw, in which the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on the impeller side and the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on the shaft side are opposite directions.
- According to this kind of invention, by rotating the two-way screw, it is possible to cause the impeller and the shaft to move in a straight line along the rotation axis direction without the impeller undergoing rotative movement with respect to the shaft. That is to say, according to the present invention, compared to the case of fastening the impeller and the shaft while rotatively moving the impeller with respect to the shaft, it is possible to reduce the amount of movement of the impeller, and it is possible to cut down the amount of work during fastening.
- Moreover, according to the present invention, when the impeller is pushed to the shaft side and made to undergo elastic deformation in order to ensure the frictional force with the shaft, it is possible to cause the impeller and the shaft to move in a straight line along the rotation axis direction without the impeller undergoing rotative movement with respect to the shaft. That is to say, according to the present invention, compared to the case of fastening the impeller and the shaft while rotatively moving the impeller with respect to the shaft, it is possible to reduce the friction resistance and possible to cut down the amount of work during fastening.
- Also, in the present invention, since it is possible to fasten the impeller and the shaft without applying great tension to the two-way screw, there is no need for an additional complicated and large equipment such as a hydraulic tensioner.
- Accordingly, according to the present invention, in a turbomachinery that is provided with an impeller and a shaft that are fastened, it is possible to cut down the work amount when fastening the impeller to the shaft without additionally requiring a complicated and large device.

FIG. 1 , thecompressor impeller 1a is provided with abase portion 1c that is fastened to theshaft 2, and a plurality ofwings 1d that are arranged at equal intervals in the rotation direction on the surface of thebase portion 1c. - Also, in the
base portion 1c is provided afitting hole 1e that is opened facing thedrive unit 4 and in which afitting projection 2a that theshaft 2 is provided with is fitted. - Also, in the interior of the
base portion 1c, as shown inFIG. 1 , a housing space of the two-way screw 3 is provided in communication with thefitting hole 1e. A screw thread is formed in the inner wall surface of this housing space and constituted so as to be a female thread that a first end side of the two-way screw 3 can be screwed together with. - Moreover, in the
base portion 1c, an exposure hole If that exposes a first end face of the two-way screw 3 is formed from a distal end of thecompressor impeller 1a. Note that the exposure hole If has a diameter that allows the passing through of atool 10 that rotates the two-way screw 3 described later (refer toFIG. 2 ), and is provided along the rotation axis L of thecompressor impeller 1a. - Note, as shown in
FIG. 1 , thefitting hole 1e and the exposure hole If sandwich the housing space of the two-way screw 3, and are arranged so as to be concentric with the rotation axis L of thecompressor impeller 1a. - The
compressor impeller 1a is formed for example with a titanium alloy, an aluminum alloy, or stainless steel, depending on the gas to be compressed. - The
compressor housing 1b forms the outer shape of thecompressor 1, has a gas flow passage in the interior, and houses thecompressor impeller 1a in the interior. - In this
compressor housing 1b, as shown inFIG. 1 , an intake opening 1g that intakes gas, adiffuser 1h that decelerates and compresses the gas that has been accelerated by thecompressor impeller 1a, ascroll flow passage 1i that serves as the flow passage of the compressed gas, and a discharge opening that is not illustrated from which the compressed gas is discharged. - The
shaft 2 is a member for transmitting power generated by thedrive unit 4 as rotative power to thecompressor impeller 1a, and is connected with thedrive unit 4. - At a first end of the
shaft 2, afitting projection 2a is provided for fitting in the fitting hole le provided in thebase portion 1c of thecompressor impeller 1a, and by thefitting projection 2a being fitted in thefitting hole 1e, thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 are positioned so as to be coaxial. - Also, as shown in
FIG. 1 , a female screw that a second end side of the two-way screw 3 is capable of screwing together with is provided in thefitting projection 2a. - The
shaft 2 is formed for example with a steel material (for example, a steel material including chrome and molybdenum). - The two-
way screw 3 is a member for fastening thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. The first end side of this two-way screw 3 serves as animpeller screwing region 3a that is screwed together with thecompressor impeller 1a, while the second end side serves as ashaft screwing region 3b that is screwed together with theshaft 2. - The turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on the
impeller screwing region 3a and the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on theimpeller screwing region 3b are opposite directions. - For this reason, when the two-
way screw 3 is turned in one direction, thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 are draw close along the rotation axis L, and when the two-way screw 3 is reversed, thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 separate along the rotation axis L. - Note that the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on the
impeller screwing region 3a is set to a direction in which the fastening power between the two-way screw 3 and thecompressor impeller 1a increases due to a reactive force when thecompressor impeller 1a is rotatively driven. - Also, in the first end face of the two-way screw 3 (a face on the
compressor impeller 1a side), afitting hole 3c for fitting atool 10 for rotating the two-way screw 3 is provided. The shape of thisfitting hole 3a is set to a shape, viewed from the rotation axis L direction, whose center of gravity is on the rotation axis L (for example, a hexagonal shape). In this way, by making the shape of thefitting hole 3c have a shape whose center of gravity is on the rotation axis L, when thecompressor impeller 1a is rotated, it is possible to keep the weight distribution of thecompressor impeller 1a that is centered on the rotation axis L uniform, and it is possible to rotate thecompressor impeller 1a in a stable manner. - Note that the first end face of the two-
way screw 3 is exposed by the exposure hole If that is provided in thebase portion 1c of thecompressor impeller 1a as described above. For this reason, thefitting hole 3c that is formed in the first end face of the two-way screw 3 is exposed from a first end of thecompressor impeller 1a via the exposure hole If. - Note that as long as the rigidity required for fastening of the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 is ensured, it is preferable for the two-way screw 3 to be formed with a material having a higher thermal conductivity than thecompressor impeller 1a. - Specifically, in the case of for example the
compressor impeller 1a being formed with a titanium alloy, it is conceivable for the two-way screw 3 to be formed with a steel material. - In this way, by forming the two-
way screw 3 with a material having a higher thermal conductivity than thecompressor impeller 1a, it is possible to promote heat transfer from thecompressor impeller 1a, which has risen in temperature due to the compression of gas, to theshaft 2, and it is possible to promptly transfer the heat to lubricating oil that is to be cooled by a cooling mechanism not shown. - Also, in the case of the two-
way screw 3 being formed with a steel material, and thecompressor impeller 1a being formed with a titanium alloy, the thermal expansion of the two-way screw 3 becomes greater than thecompressor impeller 1a. For that reason, while there is a possibility of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 separating when the fastening portion becomes a high temperature, when it is possible to reduce the temperature change of the fastening portion by cooling through heat transfer enhancement due to the two-way screw 3 as described above, it is possible to reduce the thermal expansion and so possible to prevent separation of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. For this reason, it is possible to inhibit loosening of the fastening power between for example thecompressor impeller 1a and the two-way screw 3. - Note that in the present embodiment, the two-
way screw 3 and thecompressor impeller 1a are screwed together, and the two-way screw 3 and theshaft 2 are screwed together. For this reason, the contact surface between the two-way screw 3 and the compressor impeller and the contact surface area between the two-way screw 3 and theshaft 2 broaden, the heat transmission area increases, and it is possible to further promote the aforementioned heat transfer. - The
drive unit 4 is a member for generating power for rotatively driving thecompressor impeller 1a and transmitting it to theshaft 2, and for example, is constituted to include a motor and gears and the like. - During assembly of the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment having this kind of constitution, when fastening the
compressor impeller 1a and the shaft, first theimpeller screwing region 3a of the two-way screw 3 is slightly screwed together with the female screw that is provided in thecompressor impeller 1a, and theshaft screwing region 3b is slightly screwed together with the female screw that is provided in theshaft 2. Alternatively, theshaft screwing region 3b is slightly screwed together with the female screw that is provided in theshaft 2, and theimpeller screwing region 3a is slightly screwed together with the female screw that is provided in thecompressor impeller 1a. - Next, as shown in
FIG. 2 , the tool 10 (hex wrench) is inserted in theexposure hole 1f that is provided in thebase portion 1c of thecompressor impeller 1a, and a distal end of thetool 10 is fitted in thefitting hole 3c that is exposed from the first end of thecompressor impeller 1a via the exposure hole If. Then, by rotating thetool 10, the two-way screw 3 is rotated. - As a result, the
compressor impeller 1a moves in a straight line along the rotation axis L without undergoing rotative movement with respect to theshaft 2. By rotating the two-way screw 3 until thefitting projection 2a is fitted in thefitting hole 1e and thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 are in close contact, thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 are fastened. - In the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 are fastened by the two-way screw 3, in which the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on thecompressor impeller 1a side and the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on theshaft 2 side are opposite directions. - For this reason, by rotating the two-
way screw 3, it is possible to cause thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 to move in a straight line along the rotation axis L direction without thecompressor impeller 1a undergoing rotative movement with respect to theshaft 2. That is to say, according to the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, compared to the case of fastening thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 while rotatively moving thecompressor impeller 1a with respect to theshaft 2, it is possible to reduce the amount of movement of thecompressor impeller 1a, and it is possible to cut down the amount of work during fastening. - Also, in the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, since it is possible to fasten the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 without applying great tension to the two-way screw 3, there is no need for an additional complicated and large equipment such as a hydraulic tensioner. - Accordingly, with the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to cut down the work amount when fastening the
compressor impeller 1a to theshaft 2 without additionally requiring a complicated and large device. - Also, in the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on the
impeller screwing region 3a is set to a direction in which the fastening power between the two-way screw 3 and thecompressor impeller 1a increases due to a reactive force when thecompressor impeller 1a is rotatively driven. - For this reason, with the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to inhibit loosening of the fastening power between the
compressor impeller 1a and the two-way screw 3 during operation. - Also, in the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, the
fitting hole 3c that is capable of fitting thetool 10 that rotates the two-way screw 3 is provided in the end face of the two-way screw 3 on thecompressor impeller 1a side, and the exposure hole If that exposes thefitting hole 3c is provided in thecompressor impeller 1a. - For this reason, by inserting the
tool 10 through the exposure hole If, it is possible to easily turn the two-way screw 3. - Also, in the turbocompressor S1 of the present embodiment, in order to fasten the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 by the two-way screw 3, there is no need to extend theshaft 2 until the distal end of thecompressor impeller 1a in the manner of a conventional turbocompressor in order to fix thecompressor impeller 1a. As a result, theshaft 2 becomes short, and so it is possible to improve the rigidity of theshaft 2. - Next, a second embodiment of the present invention shall be described. Note that in the description of the second embodiment, for those portions that are the same as in the aforementioned first embodiment, descriptions thereof shall be omitted or simplified.

FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B are drawings that show the outline constitution of the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment.FIG. 3A is a cross-sectional view, whileFIG. 3B is a view on arrow of theshaft 2 seen from the rotation axis L direction. - As shown in these drawings, the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment is, with the rotation axis L direction serving as the lengthwise direction, equipped with a fitting hole that is provided at a position offset from the rotation axis L of the
compressor impeller 1a, and apin member 5 to be fitted in the fitting hole that is provided at a position offset from the rotation axis L of theshaft 2. - The
pin member 5 is a member for inhibiting rotational movement of thecompressor impeller 1a with respect to theshaft 2, and functions as a rotation inhibiting member of the present invention. - In the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment, as shown in
FIG. 3B , a plurality of thepin members 5 are arranged at equally spaced intervals centered on the rotation axis L of thecompressor impeller 1a. - According to the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment having this kind of constitution, when attaching the
compressor impeller 1a to theshaft 2 by thepin members 5, it is possible to inhibit rotational movement of thecompressor impeller 1a, and it is possible to fasten thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 in a stable manner. - Also, according to the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment that has this kind of constitution, the
pin members 5 function as reinforcing members at the joining location of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. For this reason, it is possible to increase the strength of the joining location of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. - Note that when fastening the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2, thepin members 5 are fitted in either one of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2, and then fitted in the other by bringing thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 together by rotation of the two-way screw 3. - For this reason, it is not possible to arrange the
pin members 5 in a conventional fastening method that rotationally moves thecompressor impeller 1a with respect to theshaft 2 when fastening thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. - That is to say, the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment realizes an improvement in strength at the joining location of the
compressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 that cannot be realized in a turbocompressor that uses the conventional fastening method of rotatively moving thecompressor impeller 1a with respect to theshaft 2. - Also, in the turbocompressor S2 of the present embodiment, a plurality of the
pin members 5 are provided at equally spaced intervals centered on the rotation axis L of thecompressor impeller 1a. - For that reason, when rotatively driving the
compressor impeller 1a, it is possible to uniformly maintain the weight distribution centered on the rotation axis L, and so it is possible to rotate thecompressor impeller 1a in a stable manner. - Next,a third embodiment of the present invention shall be described. Note that in the description of the third embodiment, for those portions that are the same as in the aforementioned first embodiment, descriptions thereof shall be omitted or simplified.

FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B are drawings that show the outline constitution of the turbocompressor S3 of the present embodiment.FIG. 4A is a cross-sectional view, whileFIG. 4B is a view on arrow of theshaft 2 seen from the direction of the rotation axis L. - As shown in these drawings, the turbocompressor S3 of the present embodiment is equipped with a
fitting projection 7 of which the shape seen from the rotation axis L direction of thecompressor impeller 1a is an approximately triangular shape having rounded apices (a shape deviating from the rotation body shape) whose center of gravity is on the rotation axis L, and a fitting hole 6 that thefitting projection 7 is fitted into. - By fitting together, this kind of
fitting projection 7 and fitting hole 6 function as a rotation inhibiting member of the present invention, by inhibiting rotational movement of thecompressor impeller 1a with respect to theshaft 2. - Note that in the turbocompressor S3 of the present embodiment, the
fitting projection 7 is provided at theshaft 2, while the fitting hole 6 is provided in thecompressor impeller 1a. - Note that it is also possible to adopt a constitution that conversely provides the
fitting projection 7 in thecompressor impeller 1a, and provides the fitting hole 6 in theshaft 2. - According to the turbocompressor S3 of the present embodiment having this kind of constitution, when attaching the
compressor impeller 1a to theshaft 2 by thefitting projection 7 and the fitting hole 6, it is possible to inhibit rotational movement of thecompressor impeller 1a, and so it is possible to fasten thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 in a stable manner. - Also, in the turbocompressor S3 of the present embodiment, the
fitting projection 7 has a shape whose center of gravity is on the rotation axis L. - For this reason, when rotationally driving the
compressor impeller 1a, it is possible to uniformly maintain the weight distribution centered on the rotation axis L, and so it is possible to rotate thecompressor impeller 1a in a stable manner. - Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention shall be described. Note that in the description of the fourth embodiment, for those portions that are the same as in the aforementioned first embodiment, descriptions thereof shall be omitted or simplified.
-
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view that shows the outline constitution of the turbocompressor S4 of the present embodiment. - As shown in this drawing, the turbocompressor S4 of the present embodiment is provided with a
lock bolt 8 that abuts the two-way screw 3 from the rotation axis L direction of thecompressor impeller 1a (left side of the page). Note that the turning direction of the screw thread that is formed on theimpeller screwing region 3a of the two-way screw 3 and the turning direction of the screw thread that thelock bolt 8 is provided with are the same directions. - Note that in the
lock bolt 8 there is provided a tool hole (for example with a hexagonal shape) that penetrates in the rotation axis L direction and that is used when fastening or loosening thelock bolt 8. The inscribed circle of this tool hole is set to be larger than the circumscribed circle of thetool 10 that fits in thefitting hole 3c of the two-way screw 3. For this reason, thetool 10 can fit in the two-way screw 3 by passing through thelock bolt 8. - According to the turbocompressor S4 of the present embodiment having this constitution, even in the case of the
compressor impeller 1a attempting to undergo rotational movement in the direction of loosening of the fastening power, it is possible to inhibit displacement of the two-way screw 3 in the rotation axis L direction by thelock bolt 8. As a result, it is possible to prevent rotational movement of thecompressor impeller 1a in the direction of loosening of the fastening power. - Hereinabove, the preferred embodiments of the present invention were described while referring to the appended drawings, but it goes without saying that the present invention is not to be limited to the aforementioned embodiments. The various shapes and combinations of the respective component members shown in the above embodiments are examples only, and various changes are possible based on design requirements within a scope of the present invention, which is solely defined by the appended claims.
- For example, in the aforementioned embodiments, it is also possible to make the pitch of the screw thread that is formed at the
impeller screwing region 3a and the pitch of the screw thread that is formed at theshaft screwing region 3b differ. - By adopting this kind of constitution, the amount of movement of the
compressor impeller 1a and the amount of movement of theshaft 2 per unit rotation of the two-way screw 3 change. In other words, the rotation amount of the two-way screw 3 with respect to the unit movement amount of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 differs. - As a result, when the turbocompressor is running, it is possible to inhibit rotation of the two-
way screw 3 when thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2 attempt to move in the rotation axis L direction. Thereby, it is possible to inhibit loosening of the fastening power between thecompressor impeller 1a and the two-way screw 3. - Also, for example, in the aforementioned embodiments, the
fitting projection 2a is provided at theshaft 2, and thefitting hole 1e is provided in thecompressor impeller 1a. - However, as shown in
FIG. 6 , it is also possible to adopt a constitution that conversely provides a fitting projection in thecompressor impeller 1a and provides a fitting hole in theshaft 2. - By adopting this kind of constitution, as shown in
FIG. 6 , the two-way screw 3 is arranged greatly recessed in the interior of theshaft 2. For that reason, it is possible to allow the two-way screw 3 to escape from the root region of the maximum diameter portion in thecompressor impeller 1a where the load becomes great due to the highest stress acting, and so it is possible to reduce the load that acts on the two-way screw 3. - Also, due to the two-
way screw 3 leaving the maximum stress portion of thecompressor impeller 1a, it is possible to apply a higher axial force to thecompressor impeller 1a, and it is possible to increase the fastening power of thecompressor impeller 1a and theshaft 2. - Also, in the aforementioned embodiments, in order to inhibit loosening of the fastening power due to thermal expansion during operation, an axial force that can mitigate loosening of the axial force due to thermal expansion may be applied to the two-
way screw 3. - Also, in the aforementioned embodiments, as shown in
FIG. 2 , a constitution was adopted in which the two-way screw 3 is provided with afitting hole 3c in which thetool 10 is fitted. - However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it is also possible to adopt a constitution in which the two-
way screw 3, instead of thefitting hole 3c, is equipped with a fitting projection that a tool is capable of fitting. - Also, in the aforementioned embodiments, a turbocompressor was described in which one shaft and one
compressor impeller 1a at one end of the shaft are fastened. - However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it can also be applied to a turbocompressor in which a
compressor impeller 1a is fastened to both ends of one shaft, a turbocompressor that is provided with a plurality of shafts and in which a compressor impeller is provided at each shaft, and a turbocompressor that is provided with other equipment such as a cooler or the like that cools the compressed gas. - According to the present invention, in a turbomachinery that is provided with an impeller and a shaft that are to be fastened, when fastening the impeller to the shaft, there is no need for a complicated and large device, and it is possible to cut down on the amount of work during fastening.
