Recently, flywheel generators have come into widespread use as a type of large-capacity vertical shaft rotating electric machine, in which a drive motor is installed at the top, and the drive motor speeds up and extracts energy through inertia during deceleration. .
In such a vertical shaft generator, as mentioned above, only the drive motor is installed above the generator and nothing is installed below the generator, so the lower end of the main shaft of the generator is used as a thrust bearing. Available.

Currently, bearings with a well-known ability to form a self-oil film, that is, hydrodynamic bearings, are used as thrust bearings in this part, but in order to form this oil film, a large sliding speed is required on the sliding surface, so the dynamic As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, pressure bearings consist of a large number of bearings 1 supported in a swingable manner.
It comes to support. In this case, bearing shoe 1
Even if a bearing shoe 1 is provided inside the inner diameter of the shaft, the required sliding speed cannot be obtained. It had become unused.

For hydrodynamic bearings, high-pressure oil is sent between the main shaft and the bearing, and the main shaft is supported by an oil film. In hydrostatic bearings, the lower end surface of the main shaft is Available. That is, a hydraulic pocket 4 is formed in the center of the bearing shoe 1 that slides on the rotating disc 3, and high-pressure oil from a hydraulic source 5 is guided here through an oil supply pipe 6, whereby the hydraulic pressure generated in the hydraulic pocket 4 is used to The rotating disk 3 is floated to form an oil film between the sliding surface 7 and the rotating disk 3. In this way, since the central portion of the rotating disk 3 is also used to support the load, the outer diameter of the bearing shoe 1 can be made smaller than that of the above-mentioned hydrodynamic bearing, and a bearing with less loss can be obtained.

However, in this case, the sliding surface 7 of the bearing shoe 1 becomes ring-shaped, so if the floating of the rotating disk 3 with respect to the sliding surface 7 is uneven for some reason, the oil film will become thicker in the direction of the outside. Since the high-pressure oil easily flows from the hydraulic pocket 4 to the hydraulic pocket 4, the oil flow on the opposite side decreases, and the oil film thickness decreases, making it impossible to obtain the required lubrication performance. In other words, in this hydrostatic bearing with only one hydraulic pocket 4, the bearing is extremely small and the finishing precision of the bearing shoe 1 and rotating disk 3 is extremely high, and there is no cause for such unevenness of oil flow. Even if there is sufficient margin in the amount of oil supplied and the oil flow is slightly biased, it cannot be used unless the required oil flow and oil film thickness can be secured on the opposite side.

For this reason, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the sliding of the bearing shoe 1 is used to prevent such unevenness of the oil flow and to form a uniform oil amount and oil film thickness around the entire circumference. Divide the moving surface 7 into many fan shapes,
A hydraulic pocket 4a is provided in each of the hydraulic pockets 4a, and high-pressure oil is supplied from the hydraulic source 5 via the ring pipe 8 to the oil supply pipe 6, which is divided into equal parts by the flow rate regulating valve 9. A structure in which several hydrostatic bearings are formed into a single bearing shoe is adopted.

However, such hydrostatic bearings have the following drawbacks. In other words, like the hydrodynamic bearings shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 above, the center portion of the rotating disk 3 is not utilized, and since many grooves are cut in the sliding surface 7, the total number of hydraulic pockets 4a that are effective in supporting the load is reduced. If the area is smaller than in the single case shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and the supporting load is constant, the outer diameter of the bearing shoe 1 will increase accordingly, and the bearing loss will increase.

The present invention will be explained below based on the illustrated embodiments. An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. Note that parts that are the same as those in the conventional model are given the same reference numerals, and therefore their explanations will be omitted. In this embodiment, the hydraulic pocket 4b is located on the sliding surface 7 of the bearing shoe 1.
A plurality of hydraulic pockets 4b are provided around the center thereof, and high pressure oil is evenly distributed and supplied to the plurality of hydraulic pockets 4b by a flow rate regulating valve 9.
By doing so, it becomes possible to obtain a uniform oil film thickness over the entire circumference of the sliding surface 7, and to obtain a hydrostatic thrust bearing for a vertical shaft rotating electrical machine that makes it possible to utilize the central portion of the rotating disk 3. I can do it.

In other words, the hydraulic pocket 4b is provided on the center side of the bearing shoe 1 instead of on the outer circumferential side as in the conventional case, and the hydraulic pocket, which should originally be one, is divided into many parts, so that when the rotating disk 3 is normally floated, they are mutually connected. They were connected together and operated like a single hydraulic pocket, supporting most of the thrust load. Each hydraulic pocket 4b is supplied with high-pressure oil from a hydraulic source 5 through a ring pipe 8 and a flow rate regulating valve 9 at an equal flow rate through an oil supply pipe 6. By doing this, an equal flow rate of high-pressure oil is distributed to each hydraulic pocket 4b in the central portion of the sliding surface 7 of the bearing shoe 1, so that the flow rate flowing out from each hydraulic pocket 4b to the outer circumferential side is also approximately equal. As a result, the thickness of the oil film formed on the sliding surface 7 can be made almost uniform, and even if a hydrostatic bearing is used as a large bearing, it is possible to prevent performance degradation due to uneven thickness of the oil film. .

As described above, in the present invention, the hydraulic pocket is formed so that the radial dimension is larger than the circumferential dimension, and this pocket is formed on the sliding surface of the bearing shoe.
A plurality of hydraulic pockets are provided around the center, and a flat surface larger than the radial dimension of the pocket is formed on the outer peripheral side of the pocket, and high pressure oil is supplied evenly distributed to the plurality of hydraulic pockets by a flow rate adjustment valve. In other words, since fine hydraulic pockets are formed in the circumferential direction, the flow rate flowing out to the outer circumferential side is almost uniform, and since there is a wide flat surface on the outer circumferential side, the flow rate is evenly distributed over the entire circumference of the sliding surface. An oil film can now be obtained, and a hydrostatic thrust bearing for a vertical shaft rotating electric machine can be obtained, which makes it possible to utilize the central portion of the rotating disk.
