Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent seizure between a rolling element and an inner ring by increasing the cooling efficiency of the inner ring to reduce a temperature difference between an outer ring and the inner ring. <P>SOLUTION: The bearing device comprises a bearing consisting of the inner ring, the outer ring, and the rolling elements, the inner ring of the bearing being mounted on a shaft directly or via a sleeve. In the inner diameter face of the inner ring, the outer diameter face or the inner diameter face of the sleeve, or the outer diameter face of the shaft, a spiral groove is provided through which cooling medium passes to cool the inner ring or the sleeve. When the shaft is rotated and the cooling medium flows from one end of the spiral groove to the other, the cooling medium receives inertia force with the rotation of the shaft and the cooling medium flows in the direction corresponding to the spiral direction of the spiral groove. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

この発明は、軸受装置、詳しくは、内輪やスリーブの冷却装置を備えた軸受装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a bearing device, and more particularly to a bearing device provided with a cooling device for an inner ring and a sleeve.

ジェットエンジンやガスタービン用の主軸軸受は、高速回転の下で使用される。このため、軸受の内外輪に温度差が生じる。このとき、内輪の温度上昇が大きくなりすぎると、軸受隙間が過小となって、焼付き等が生じる場合がある。このような問題に対し、特許文献1に示すような軸受装置が知られている。   Main shaft bearings for jet engines and gas turbines are used under high speed rotation. For this reason, a temperature difference arises in the inner and outer rings of the bearing. At this time, if the temperature rise of the inner ring becomes too large, the bearing gap becomes too small, and seizure or the like may occur. For such a problem, a bearing device as shown in Patent Document 1 is known.

The sleeve 5 is provided with a refrigerant passage 7 through which a cooling medium such as oil passes.

冷媒通路7に油等の冷却媒体が通るので、スリーブ5やこのスリーブ5に接している内輪2が冷却され、これにより外輪3と内輪2の温度差を小さくし、転動体4と内輪2との焼き付きを防止することができる。   Since a cooling medium such as oil passes through the refrigerant passage 7, the sleeve 5 and the inner ring 2 in contact with the sleeve 5 are cooled, thereby reducing the temperature difference between the outer ring 3 and the inner ring 2, and the rolling element 4 and the inner ring 2. Can be prevented.

Thereby, it is possible to efficiently reduce the temperature difference between the outer ring and the inner ring, and seizure between the rolling element and the inner ring can be prevented.

この発明にかかる軸受装置は、内輪、外輪、及び転動体から構成される軸受、及びこの軸受の内輪を、直接、又はスリーブを介して軸に取り付けた装置である。以下、この発明について、図1〜図3を用いて説明する。   The bearing device according to the present invention is a device comprising an inner ring, an outer ring, and rolling elements, and an apparatus in which the inner ring of this bearing is attached to a shaft directly or via a sleeve. The present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

[第1の軸受装置(軸受装置11a)]
この発明にかかる第1の軸受装置である軸受装置11aは内輪12a、外輪13、及び転動体14から構成される軸受、及びこの軸受の内輪12aを、スリーブ15を介して軸16に取り付けた装置である。
[First Bearing Device (Bearing Device 11a)]
A bearing device 11a, which is a first bearing device according to the present invention, is a bearing composed of an inner ring 12a, an outer ring 13, and a rolling element 14, and a device in which the inner ring 12a of this bearing is attached to a shaft 16 via a sleeve 15. It is.

上記内輪12a、外輪13、及び転動体14から構成される軸受は、ジェットエンジンやガスタービン用の主軸軸受として、高速回転下で使用することができれば、転がり軸受、玉軸受等、任意の軸受を用いることができる。   If the bearing comprised from the said inner ring | wheel 12a, the outer ring | wheel 13, and the rolling element 14 can be used under high-speed rotation as a main shaft bearing for jet engines and gas turbines, it will be arbitrary bearings, such as a rolling bearing and a ball bearing. Can be used.

図1(a)に示す軸受装置は、内輪12aを、スリーブ15を介して軸16に取り付けた装置である。このとき、内輪12aはスリーブ15に嵌合して取り付けられ、スリーブ15は軸16に嵌合して取り付けられる。そして、このスリーブ15の内径面には、図1(b)に示すように、螺旋溝17aが設けられる。そして、この螺旋溝17aには、内輪12a及びスリーブ15を冷却するための冷却媒体が通される。   The bearing device shown in FIG. 1A is a device in which an inner ring 12 a is attached to a shaft 16 via a sleeve 15. At this time, the inner ring 12 a is fitted and attached to the sleeve 15, and the sleeve 15 is fitted and attached to the shaft 16. A spiral groove 17a is provided on the inner diameter surface of the sleeve 15 as shown in FIG. A cooling medium for cooling the inner ring 12a and the sleeve 15 is passed through the spiral groove 17a.

上記の冷却媒体とは、上記螺旋溝17aを通ることにより、周囲の、特にスリーブ15や内輪12aの熱を奪う媒体であり、具体例としては、油や空気をあげることができる。また、上記油としては、一般的に潤滑用に用いられる潤滑油等をあげることができる。   The cooling medium is a medium that removes heat from the surroundings, particularly the sleeve 15 and the inner ring 12a, by passing through the spiral groove 17a. Specific examples thereof include oil and air. Moreover, as said oil, the lubricating oil etc. which are generally used for lubrication can be mention | raise | lifted.

また、図1(a)に示すように、軸16をA方向(図1(a)の右側から見て反時計回り)に回転させ、かつ、上記冷却媒体を螺旋溝の一方の端から他方の端に向かって流すとき、具体的には、上記冷却媒体を媒体入口18aから入れ、螺旋溝17aを通し、媒体出口18bから回収したとき、軸16の回転によって冷却媒体が受ける慣性力と、冷却媒体の流れ方向と一致するように、螺旋溝17aの螺旋方向を設ける。このような螺旋方向を採用することにより、冷却媒体がよりスムーズに螺旋溝17a内を流れることができ、内輪12aの冷却効率をより向上させることができる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 1A, the shaft 16 is rotated in the A direction (counterclockwise when viewed from the right side of FIG. 1A), and the cooling medium is moved from one end of the spiral groove to the other. Specifically, the inertial force received by the cooling medium by the rotation of the shaft 16 when the cooling medium is inserted from the medium inlet 18a, passed through the spiral groove 17a and recovered from the medium outlet 18b, The spiral direction of the spiral groove 17a is provided so as to coincide with the flow direction of the cooling medium. By adopting such a spiral direction, the cooling medium can flow through the spiral groove 17a more smoothly, and the cooling efficiency of the inner ring 12a can be further improved.

上記軸受装置11aには、転動体14の周囲に潤滑剤を供給するため、媒体入口18aのほか、必要に応じて、潤滑剤供給口19を設ける。上記冷却媒体として潤滑用の油を用いる場合は、これを潤滑油としても併用することができるが、空気を用いると、別途、潤滑油を供給する必要が生じる。このような場合に、上記潤滑剤供給口19から潤滑油を供給することができる。   In addition to the medium inlet 18a, the bearing device 11a is provided with a lubricant supply port 19 as needed in order to supply the lubricant around the rolling elements 14. When lubricating oil is used as the cooling medium, it can be used together as lubricating oil. However, when air is used, it is necessary to supply lubricating oil separately. In such a case, lubricating oil can be supplied from the lubricant supply port 19.
