Abstract
A turbo machine includes an impeller that rotates to make gas flow, a driving device that rotationally drives the impeller, a rotary shaft that transmits a rotational driving force of the driving device to the impeller, a bearing that rotatably supports the rotary shaft, and a casing that houses at least the driving device and the rotary shaft. In addition, the casing is provided with a grease flow path to supply grease to the bearing for lubricating the bearing.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A turbo machine comprising:
an impeller that rotates to make gas flow; a driving device that rotationally drives the impeller; a rotary shaft that transmits a rotational driving force of the driving device to the impeller; a bearing that rotatably supports the rotary shaft; and a casing that houses at least the driving device and the rotary shaft, wherein the casing is provided with a grease flow path to supply grease to the bearing for lubricating the bearing.
2 . The turbo machine according to claim 1 ,
wherein the casing includes a casing body that houses at least the driving device and the rotary shaft, and a bearing supporting member that is detachably installed in the casing body and supports the bearing, the casing body is provided with a first flow path that forms a portion of the grease flow path, and the bearing supporting member is provided with a second flow path that forms a portion of the grease flow path and communicates with the first flow path.
3 . The turbo machine according to claim 2 ,
wherein a direction in which the first flow path and the second flow path communicate with each other is the same as a direction in which the bearing supporting member is attached and detached.
4 . The turbo machine according to claim 2 ,
wherein the bearing supporting member is provided with a circular flow path that is circularly disposed around the rotational axis of the rotary shaft, and the circular flow path forms a portion of the second flow path and is disposed so as to communicate with the first flow path.
5 . The turbo machine according to claim 3 ,
wherein the bearing supporting member is provided with a circular flow path that is circularly disposed around the rotational axis of the rotary shaft, and the circular flow path forms a portion of the second flow path and is disposed so as to communicate with the first flow path.
6 . The turbo machine according to claim 2 ,
wherein the bearing supporting member includes a grease storing portion for storing grease which is discharged from the bearing.
7 . The turbo machine according to claim 3 ,
wherein the bearing supporting member includes a grease storing portion for storing grease which is discharged from the bearing.
8 . The turbo machine according to claim 4 ,
wherein the bearing supporting member includes a grease storing portion for storing grease which is discharged from the bearing.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
