Primary Examiner-Manuel A. Antonakas Attorney-Johnson, Dienner, Emrich, Verbeck & Wagner [57] ABSTRACT A cooling system for the bearings of a rotary machine designed to recirculate oil from the bearing housing through a heat exchanger unit and back through the bearings. A pumping unit contained in the housing provides sufficient pressure to recirculate the oil in a closed path. The pumping unit employs a turbine impeller fixed to the machines shaft to develop the necessary pressure at standard motor speeds.
5 Claims, 6 Drawing Figures COOLING AND LUBRICATING SYSTEM FOR BEARINGS I BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a system for cooling and lubricating bearings used to support the shaft of a rotary machine.
In designing pumps for handling liquids at high temperatures or under high pressures, it is essential to provide means for cooling the bearings. One satisfactory method of cooling is to continuously circulate water under pressure through the portion of pump housing containing the bearing. To practice this method requires a water reservoir and a pumping device.
This invention is an improvement over prior art cooling systems by providing a self-contained cooling arrangement which continuously circulates a cooled lubricant through the bearings in response to the rotary movement of the machine s shaft.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS For a better understanding of this invention reference may be made to accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is an elevational end view of a pump embodying the present invention, without the heat exchanger coil;
FIG. 2 is an elevational side view of the pump illustrated in FIG. 1 with the heat exchanger coil;
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line 3-3 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 4-4 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross sectional view taken along the line 5-5 of FIG. 4; and
FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along the line 6-6 of FIG. 5.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, there is depicted a conventional turbine pump 11) designed to handle hot liquids. The pump has a casing designated in its entirety by the-reference numeral 12 which includes an inlet 14 and an outlet 16. A shaft 18 extends through the casing 12 and is rotatably supported by inboard and outboard bearings 20 and 22.
Thisinvention resides in a cooling system 24 which continuously circulates oil through the pair of bearings 20, 22 as the shaft 18 rotates. The cooling system 24 utilizes a heat exchanger coil 26 supported outside the casing 12 to cool the oil 0 after it passes through the pair of bearings 20, 22.
The heart of this invention is the pumping unit 30 which develops sufficient pressure at standard motor speeds to recirculate the oil 0 through the heat exchanger coil 26 and through the outboard and inboard bearings 22 and 20. This pressure is provided by using a regenerative turbine impeller 32 which is keyed to the pump shaft 18 by one or more pins 34 (FIGS. 3 and 5) or other means extending from its hub 36 into the shaft 18. The impeller hub 36 is sealed to shaft 18 by means of O-ring 37. The impeller has a set of vanes 38 which open from one or both sides of the outer marginal portion of the impeller.
The pumping unit 30 is contained in a circularshaped cartridge 40 which is fastened to the pump casing 12 adjacent to the inboard bearing 20 by means of four radially spaced bolts 42 (FIG. 3). The center portion of cartridge 40 has an inner circular opening 44, an intermediate annular shoulder 46 and an outer annular shoulder 48. A lip-type oil seal 50 is placed in the inner opening 44 to prevent leakage along the impeller hub 36. A liner 52 is seated in the outer annular shoulder 48. The cartridge 40 and the liner 52 cooperate to form sealing surfaces for the opposite surfaces of impeller 32. A radial notch 51 (FIG. 5) and communicating with notch 48 (FIG. 4) is formed in the inner wall 53 of cartridge 40 to relieve pressure on the oil seal 50. An arcuate groove 58 is formed on the inside surface 60 of liner 52 and extends in a circular path through an angle less than 360 and cooperates with the annular shoulder 46 of cartridge 40 to define a pumping chamber 62 with a housing 63 for pumping unit 30, where housing 63 has an inlet 64 and an outlet 66. The inlet 64 is formed by an arcuate cut-out 68 through the liner 52. An oil return drain is provided by notch 70 formed in the casing 12 below the inlet 64 and extending underneath and beyond the length of the outer race 74 of the inboard bearing 20.
To assemble the pumping unit 30, the oil seal 50 is pressed into the inner opening 44, and the impeller 32 is then put in place. Next the liner 52 is pressed into place in the cartridge 40 and a number of points located about periphery of the outer annular shoulder 48 are staked in to hold the liner 52 in place. The impeller 32 is then slid onto the shaft 18 and fixed thereto rotatably by means of pin 34. The cartridge 40 is mounted to the pump casing 12 by means of the four bolts 42. An annular gasket 84 is sandwiched between the cartridge 40 and the casing 12 for sealing purposes.
The outlet 66 of the pumping unit 30 is connected to the heat exchanger coil 26 by a fitting 88 which is mounted through an opening 90 in the cartridge 40, which extends through its sidewall and terminates in direct communication with the outlet 66 of passageway 62. The heat exchanger coil 26 comprises a continuous pipe or conduit 92 formed in a spiral and supported above the pump casing 12 by two generally vertically extending leg portions 94 and 196. Leg portion 94 is coupled at its lower end to fitting 88 and leg portion 96 is coupled to fitting 98.
Fitting 98 extends through the side wall of end cap 100 and introduces the cooled oil behind the outboard bearing 22. The cooled oil entering through fitting 98 flows forwardly through outboard and inboard bearings 22 and 20 as well as through notch 70 (FIG. 5) and into the inlet 68 of pumping unit 30. A conventional constant level oiler 104 is provided in the casing 12 between the bearings and 22 for maintaining an adequate oil level therein.
