Description

本発明は、例えばターボチャージャに用いられる軸受装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a bearing device used in, for example, a turbocharger.

高速回転する回転軸をケーシング内で支持するターボチャージャ用の軸受装置として、図4に示すように、ケーシング90内に設けられている円筒形状の外輪ハウジング91と、この外輪ハウジング91の軸方向両側部それぞれに取り付けられている転がり軸受92,92とを備え、これら転がり軸受92,92が、外輪ハウジング91の径方向内側にある回転軸99を回転自在に支持するものがある(特許文献1参照)。   As shown in FIG. 4, a cylindrical outer ring housing 91 provided in the casing 90 and both axial sides of the outer ring housing 91 as a bearing device for a turbocharger that supports a rotating shaft that rotates at a high speed in the casing. There are rolling bearings 92 and 92 attached to the respective parts, and these rolling bearings 92 and 92 rotatably support a rotating shaft 99 on the radially inner side of the outer ring housing 91 (see Patent Document 1). ).

図4に示すターボチャージャでは、ケーシング90に給油孔96が設けられており、この給油孔96から外輪ハウジング91の外周面91aへと油が供給される。この油により、ケーシング90の内周面90aと外輪ハウジング91の外周面91aとの間に油膜(オイルフィルム)が形成され、軸受装置97の振動がケーシング90に伝わりにくくすることが可能となる。   In the turbocharger shown in FIG. 4, an oil supply hole 96 is provided in the casing 90, and oil is supplied from the oil supply hole 96 to the outer peripheral surface 91 a of the outer ring housing 91. With this oil, an oil film (oil film) is formed between the inner peripheral surface 90 a of the casing 90 and the outer peripheral surface 91 a of the outer ring housing 91, and the vibration of the bearing device 97 can be hardly transmitted to the casing 90.

また、ケーシング90の内周面90aと外輪ハウジング91の外周面91aとの間に供給された油は、この外輪ハウジング91の軸方向の端面98とケーシング90内の側壁面90bとの間を経て転がり軸受92内に供給され、この油により転がり軸受92を潤滑すると共に冷却することが可能となる。   The oil supplied between the inner peripheral surface 90 a of the casing 90 and the outer peripheral surface 91 a of the outer ring housing 91 passes between the end surface 98 in the axial direction of the outer ring housing 91 and the side wall surface 90 b in the casing 90. The oil is supplied into the rolling bearing 92, and the oil can lubricate and cool the rolling bearing 92 with this oil.

特開2010−133266号公報JP 2010-133266 A

前記のとおり、ターボチャージャのケーシング90側から供給された油は、転がり軸受92を潤滑すると共に冷却するためにも機能するが、この潤滑及び冷却に要する油量を超える油が、転がり軸受92内に供給された場合、この転がり軸受92を通過した油が、回転軸99の外周側に取り付けられているスペーサ99aと外輪ハウジング91との間の環状空間100で滞留し、高速で回転する転がり軸受92における油の撹拌抵抗が大きくなる。この結果、回転軸99の回転抵抗が大きくなり、ターボチャージャとしての機能を十分に発揮させることができなくなるおそれがある。   As described above, the oil supplied from the casing 90 side of the turbocharger functions to lubricate and cool the rolling bearing 92. However, the oil exceeding the amount of oil required for this lubrication and cooling is in the rolling bearing 92. The oil that has passed through the rolling bearing 92 stays in the annular space 100 between the spacer 99a attached to the outer peripheral side of the rotating shaft 99 and the outer ring housing 91, and rotates at high speed. The oil stirring resistance at 92 is increased. As a result, the rotational resistance of the rotating shaft 99 increases, and the function as a turbocharger may not be fully exhibited.

なお、外輪ハウジング91の軸方向中央の一部には油の排出孔89が形成されており、軸方向両側の転がり軸受92,92間に形成されている環状空間100の過剰な油をこの排出孔89を通じて軸受装置97外へ排出可能であるが、油の供給量に比べて排出量が十分でない場合、環状空間100で油が滞留してしまい、転がり軸受92における油の撹拌抵抗が大きくなる。   In addition, an oil discharge hole 89 is formed in a part of the axial center of the outer ring housing 91, and excess oil in the annular space 100 formed between the rolling bearings 92 on both sides in the axial direction is discharged. Although the oil can be discharged out of the bearing device 97 through the hole 89, if the amount of oil discharged is not sufficient compared to the amount of oil supplied, the oil stays in the annular space 100, and the oil stirring resistance in the rolling bearing 92 increases. .

そこで、本発明は、環状空間に油が滞留して転がり軸受における油の撹拌抵抗が大きくなるのを防ぐために、転がり軸受を通過した油を環状空間で流れやすくすることができ、この油を効率良く排出させることが可能となる軸受装置を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention can make the oil that has passed through the rolling bearing easily flow in the annular space in order to prevent the oil from staying in the annular space and increasing the stirring resistance of the oil in the rolling bearing. It is an object of the present invention to provide a bearing device that can be discharged well.

本発明は、ケーシング内に設けられ軸方向中央の一部に油の排出孔が形成されている円筒形状の外輪ハウジングと、前記外輪ハウジングの軸方向両側部それぞれに取り付けられ、外輪、内輪及び転動体を備え当該外輪ハウジングの径方向内側にある回転軸を回転自在に支持する転がり軸受とを有し、前記ケーシングの内周面と前記外輪ハウジングの外周面との間に供給された油が、当該外輪ハウジングの軸方向の端面と前記ケーシング内の側壁面との間を経て前記転がり軸受内に供給され、この転がり軸受を通過した油が、軸方向両側の前記転がり軸受間に形成されている環状空間から前記排出孔を通じて排出される軸受装置であって、前記外輪ハウジングの内周面は、前記外輪を取り付けるために軸方向両側部に設けられている環状の取り付け面と、これら取り付け面の間に設けられ前記環状空間の外周面を構成する円筒面とを有し、前記円筒面は、前記外輪の内径よりも大きな内径を有している軸方向両側の第一内周面と、この第一内周面の内径よりも大きな内径を有し前記環状空間を径方向外側へ拡大させている軸方向中央側の第二内周面とを有することを特徴とする。   The present invention includes a cylindrical outer ring housing provided in a casing and having an oil discharge hole formed in a part of an axial center thereof, and attached to both sides in the axial direction of the outer ring housing. A rolling bearing that includes a moving body and rotatably supports a rotating shaft radially inward of the outer ring housing, and the oil supplied between the inner peripheral surface of the casing and the outer peripheral surface of the outer ring housing, The oil supplied to the rolling bearing through an axial end surface of the outer ring housing and the side wall surface in the casing is formed between the rolling bearings on both axial sides. A bearing device that is discharged from an annular space through the discharge hole, and an inner peripheral surface of the outer ring housing is provided with annular holders provided on both axial sides for mounting the outer ring. And a cylindrical surface that is provided between the mounting surfaces and that constitutes the outer peripheral surface of the annular space, and the cylindrical surfaces are on both axial sides having an inner diameter larger than the inner diameter of the outer ring. A first inner peripheral surface, and an axially central second inner peripheral surface having an inner diameter larger than the inner diameter of the first inner peripheral surface and expanding the annular space radially outward. And

本発明によれば、第一内周面は、外輪の内径よりも大きな内径を有しているため、転がり軸受の内輪と外輪との間の軸受空間よりも、環状空間を径方向外側へ拡大させ、さらに、第二内周面は、第一内周面の内径よりも大きな内径を有しており、環状空間を更に径方向外側へ拡大させている。このように、環状空間を径方向外側へ段階的に拡大させることで、環状空間における油の流路断面を大きくさせ、転がり軸受を通過した油を環状空間で流れやすくすることができ、この油を効率良く排出孔から排出させることが可能となる。   According to the present invention, since the first inner peripheral surface has an inner diameter larger than the inner diameter of the outer ring, the annular space is expanded radially outwardly than the bearing space between the inner ring and the outer ring of the rolling bearing. Furthermore, the second inner peripheral surface has an inner diameter larger than the inner diameter of the first inner peripheral surface, and further expands the annular space radially outward. In this way, by gradually expanding the annular space radially outward, the oil flow passage cross section in the annular space can be enlarged, and the oil that has passed through the rolling bearing can be easily flowed in the annular space. Can be efficiently discharged from the discharge hole.

また、前記第二内周面は、軸方向中央に位置していると共に前記排出孔が開口している円筒底面と、この円筒底面と軸方向両側の前記第一内周面とを繋げているテーパ面とを有しているのが好ましい。
この場合、転がり軸受内から環状空間に流れた油を、第一内周面側からテーパ面に沿って円筒底面側へと導き、さらに、この円筒底面で開口している排出孔へと導くことができ、この排出孔の取り入れ口から油を取り入れやすくすることができる。このため、油が排出口から排出されやすくなり、油が環状空間に滞留し難くすることが可能となる。
The second inner peripheral surface is located at the center in the axial direction and connects the cylindrical bottom surface where the discharge hole is opened to the cylindrical bottom surface and the first inner peripheral surface on both axial sides. It preferably has a tapered surface.
In this case, the oil that has flowed into the annular space from the inside of the rolling bearing is guided from the first inner peripheral surface side to the cylindrical bottom surface along the tapered surface, and further to the discharge hole that is open at the cylindrical bottom surface. The oil can be easily taken from the intake port of the discharge hole. For this reason, it becomes easy to discharge | emit oil from a discharge port, and it becomes possible to make oil hard to stay in annular space.

また、前記第一内周面の内径は、前記取り付け面の内径よりも小さいのが好ましい。
この場合、第一内周面の径方向の位置を、転がり軸受の外輪の内周面と、取り付け面との間にすることができ、転がり軸受内の油を段階的に環状空間の広くなる領域(第二内周面側の領域)へと導き、油を環状空間で流れやすくすることができる。
The inner diameter of the first inner peripheral surface is preferably smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting surface.
In this case, the radial position of the first inner peripheral surface can be set between the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring of the rolling bearing and the mounting surface, and the oil in the rolling bearing gradually increases in the annular space. It is possible to guide the oil to the region (region on the second inner peripheral surface side) and flow the oil in the annular space.

また、前記第一内周面及び前記第二内周面は、前記回転軸の外周面又は前記回転軸の径方向外側に設けられている円筒体の外周面と対面しているのが好ましい。
この場合、回転軸の外周面又は円筒体の外周面と第一内周面との間には、油の流れを阻害する部分が存在せず、また、回転軸の外周面又は円筒体の外周面と第二内周面との間には、油の流れを阻害する部分が存在せず、油が環状空間の一部で滞留するのを防止することができる。
Further, it is preferable that the first inner peripheral surface and the second inner peripheral surface face an outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft or an outer peripheral surface of a cylindrical body provided radially outside the rotating shaft.
In this case, there is no portion that obstructs the oil flow between the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft or the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical body and the first inner peripheral surface, and the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft or the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical body. There is no portion that obstructs the flow of oil between the surface and the second inner peripheral surface, and oil can be prevented from staying in a part of the annular space.

本発明によれば、軸方向両側の転がり軸受間に形成されている環状空間を、径方向外側へ段階的に拡大させることで、環状空間における油の流路断面を大きくさせ、転がり軸受を通過した油を環状空間で流れやすくすることができ、この油を効率良く排出孔から排出させることが可能となる。この結果、転がり軸受における油の撹拌抵抗が大きくなるのを防ぐことができ、回転軸の回転性能を高めることが可能となる。   According to the present invention, the annular space formed between the rolling bearings on both axial sides is enlarged stepwise outward in the radial direction, so that the oil flow passage cross section in the annular space is enlarged and passed through the rolling bearing. It is possible to facilitate the flow of the oil in the annular space, and the oil can be efficiently discharged from the discharge hole. As a result, it is possible to prevent the oil agitation resistance in the rolling bearing from increasing, and it is possible to improve the rotational performance of the rotating shaft.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
図1は本発明の軸受装置1が組み込まれているターボチャージャTの縦断面図である。このターボチャージャTは、ケーシング2と、このケーシング2内で高速回転する回転軸3とを備えている。回転軸3は、軸方向一方側(図1の右側)の端部に設けられているタービン53と、軸方向他方側(図1の左側)の端部に設けられているインペラ54とを有している。
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a turbocharger T in which a bearing device 1 of the present invention is incorporated. The turbocharger T includes a casing 2 and a rotating shaft 3 that rotates at high speed in the casing 2. The rotating shaft 3 has a turbine 53 provided at an end portion on one axial side (right side in FIG. 1) and an impeller 54 provided at an end portion on the other axial side (left side in FIG. 1). doing.

ケーシング2の軸方向一方側には排気流路51が設けられており、軸方向他方側には給気流路55が設けられている。排気流路51を流れる排気ガスによりタービン53が回転することで回転軸3は高速回転し、この回転軸3の回転力によってインペラ54は給気流路55内で回転する。そして、給気流路55の開口部から吸引された空気がインペラ54により圧縮され、この圧縮された空気が、ガソリンや軽油等の燃料と共に、図示しないエンジンのシリンダ室内に送り込まれる。   An exhaust passage 51 is provided on one side of the casing 2 in the axial direction, and an air supply passage 55 is provided on the other side in the axial direction. When the turbine 53 is rotated by the exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust passage 51, the rotating shaft 3 rotates at a high speed, and the impeller 54 rotates in the air supply passage 55 by the rotational force of the rotating shaft 3. Then, the air sucked from the opening of the air supply passage 55 is compressed by the impeller 54, and this compressed air is sent into a cylinder chamber of an engine (not shown) together with fuel such as gasoline and light oil.

このようなターボチャージャTの回転軸3は、数万〜十数万(回/分)もの高速で回転し、しかも、エンジンの運転状況(回転数)に応じて回転速度が頻繁に変化することから、回転軸3の回転損失をできるだけ低減するのが好ましい。そこで、ケーシング2内に設けられている軸受装置1が、この回転軸3を小さな回転抵抗となるようにして支持している。   The rotating shaft 3 of such a turbocharger T rotates at a high speed of several tens of thousands to several tens of thousands (times / minute), and the rotation speed frequently changes according to the operating state (the number of rotations) of the engine. Therefore, it is preferable to reduce the rotation loss of the rotating shaft 3 as much as possible. Therefore, the bearing device 1 provided in the casing 2 supports the rotary shaft 3 so as to have a small rotational resistance.

図2は軸受装置1の縦断面図である。この軸受装置1は、ケーシング2内に設けられ円筒形状である外輪ハウジング10と、この外輪ハウジング10の軸方向両側部11,11それぞれに取り付けられている転がり軸受20,20とを備えている。これら転がり軸受20,20により、外輪ハウジング10の径方向内側にある回転軸3が回転自在に支持される。   FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the bearing device 1. The bearing device 1 includes a cylindrical outer ring housing 10 provided in a casing 2, and rolling bearings 20 and 20 attached to both axial side portions 11 and 11 of the outer ring housing 10. By these rolling bearings 20, 20, the rotary shaft 3 on the radially inner side of the outer ring housing 10 is rotatably supported.

ターボチャージャTのケーシング2は、中央に軸受装置1を収容する収容室4が形成されている。つまり、ケーシング2内には、内周面5と、この内周面5の軸方向両側からそれぞれ径方向内側に延びる円環状の側壁面6,6とが形成されており、これら内周面5及び側壁面6,6によって囲まれる領域が、前記収容室4となる。   The casing 2 of the turbocharger T is formed with a housing chamber 4 for housing the bearing device 1 at the center. That is, in the casing 2, an inner peripheral surface 5 and annular side wall surfaces 6 and 6 extending radially inward from both axial sides of the inner peripheral surface 5 are formed. The region surrounded by the side wall surfaces 6 and 6 is the storage chamber 4.

また、このケーシング2には、内周面5において開口する給油孔7,7及び排油孔8が形成されている。給油孔7は、ケーシング2の上部に形成されており、この給油孔7を通じて、油(潤滑油)が外輪ハウジング10の外周面16とケーシング2の内周面5との間に供給される。排油孔8は、ケーシング2の下部に形成されており、収容室4内に設けられている軸受装置1を通過した油を、この排油孔8を通じて外部へと排出する。   Further, the casing 2 is formed with oil supply holes 7 and 7 and an oil discharge hole 8 which are opened on the inner peripheral surface 5. The oil supply hole 7 is formed in the upper part of the casing 2, and oil (lubricating oil) is supplied between the outer peripheral surface 16 of the outer ring housing 10 and the inner peripheral surface 5 of the casing 2 through the oil supply hole 7. The oil drain hole 8 is formed in the lower part of the casing 2, and the oil that has passed through the bearing device 1 provided in the storage chamber 4 is discharged to the outside through the oil drain hole 8.

外輪ハウジング10は、円筒形状である軸方向両側部11,11及びその間の本体部19を含み、これらが一体として構成されている円筒形状の部材である。そして、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向中央の一部(下部)に、油の排出孔15が形成されている。排出孔15は、ケーシング2の排油孔8と連続する配置となる。
外輪ハウジング10の軸方向寸法は、ケーシング2の側壁面6,6間の軸方向寸法よりも僅かに小さく、外輪ハウジング10は、ケーシング2内において、周方向の回転は制限されているが、軸方向の一方側及び他方側については微小寸法だけ移動可能となる。
The outer ring housing 10 is a cylindrical member that includes both axial side portions 11 and 11 having a cylindrical shape and a main body portion 19 therebetween, and these are integrally formed. An oil discharge hole 15 is formed in a part (lower part) of the axial center of the outer ring housing 10. The discharge hole 15 is arranged continuously with the oil discharge hole 8 of the casing 2.
The axial dimension of the outer ring housing 10 is slightly smaller than the axial dimension between the side wall surfaces 6 and 6 of the casing 2, and the outer ring housing 10 is limited in rotation in the circumferential direction within the casing 2. The one side and the other side of the direction can be moved by a minute dimension.

また、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向両側の端面17,17は、ケーシング2内の軸方向両側に設けられている側壁面6,6に、隙間を有して対向する対向面となる。なお、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向の端面17と、ケーシング2の側壁面6との間には微小の隙間が形成されるが、図2では、説明を容易とするためにこの隙間を大きくして表現している。   Further, the end faces 17, 17 on both sides in the axial direction of the outer ring housing 10 are opposed faces facing the side wall surfaces 6, 6 provided on both sides in the axial direction in the casing 2 with a gap. A minute gap is formed between the end surface 17 in the axial direction of the outer ring housing 10 and the side wall surface 6 of the casing 2. In FIG. expressing.

また、外輪ハウジング10がケーシング2内を軸方向一方側(図2の右側)に移動した際に、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向一方側の端面17は、このケーシング2内の側壁面6(図2では右側の側壁面6)に対して軸方向から接触することがある。この端面17は、外輪22の軸方向外側の側面25よりも軸方向外側(図2の右側)に位置している。
また、これと同様に、外輪ハウジング10がケーシング2内を軸方向他方側(図2の左側)に移動した際に、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向他方側の端面17は、このケーシング2内の側壁面6(図2では左側の側壁面6)に対して軸方向から接触することがある。この端面17は、外輪22の軸方向外側の側面25よりも軸方向外側(図2の左側)に位置している。
Further, when the outer ring housing 10 moves in the casing 2 to one side in the axial direction (right side in FIG. 2), the end surface 17 on one side in the axial direction of the outer ring housing 10 is the side wall surface 6 (see FIG. 2). Then, the right side wall surface 6) may be contacted from the axial direction. This end surface 17 is located on the axially outer side (right side in FIG. 2) than the axially outer side surface 25 of the outer ring 22.
Similarly, when the outer ring housing 10 moves in the casing 2 to the other side in the axial direction (left side in FIG. 2), the end surface 17 on the other side in the axial direction of the outer ring housing 10 is the side in the casing 2. The wall surface 6 (left side wall surface 6 in FIG. 2) may come into contact in the axial direction. The end surface 17 is located on the axially outer side (the left side in FIG. 2) than the axially outer side surface 25 of the outer ring 22.

The outer ring 22 is fitted in each of the axial side portions 11, 11 of the outer ring housing 10, and the inner ring 23 is fitted on the rotary shaft 3. A cylindrical spacer 9 is provided between the inner rings 23 on both sides in the axial direction, and the rotary shaft 3 is inserted through the spacer 9. The left and right inner rings 23 are positioned in the axial direction by the spacer 9. An annular space 50 is formed between the outer ring housing 10 and the spacer 9 (rotating shaft 3) and between the rolling bearings 20 and 20 on both axial sides.

そして、本実施形態では、前記給油孔7,7から供給された油により、ケーシング2の内周面5と外輪ハウジング10の外周面16との間に油膜(オイルフィルム)が形成され、軸受装置1の振動がケーシング2に伝わりにくくしている。
そして、これら内周面5と外周面16との間に供給された油は、軸方向両側それぞれにおいて、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向の端面17とケーシング2内の側壁面6との間を経て、転がり軸受20内に供給される。つまり、油は、外輪22と内輪23との間の環状の軸受空間Qに供給される。そして、転がり軸受20,20それぞれを通過した油(軸受空間Qを通過した油)は、前記環状空間50を流れ、さらに、この環状空間50から排出孔15及び排油孔8を通じて外部へ排出される。
In the present embodiment, an oil film (oil film) is formed between the inner peripheral surface 5 of the casing 2 and the outer peripheral surface 16 of the outer ring housing 10 by the oil supplied from the oil supply holes 7, 7. 1 is difficult to be transmitted to the casing 2.
The oil supplied between the inner peripheral surface 5 and the outer peripheral surface 16 passes between the axial end surface 17 of the outer ring housing 10 and the side wall surface 6 in the casing 2 on both axial sides. It is supplied into the rolling bearing 20. That is, the oil is supplied to the annular bearing space Q between the outer ring 22 and the inner ring 23. The oil that has passed through each of the rolling bearings 20 and 20 (oil that has passed through the bearing space Q) flows through the annular space 50, and is further discharged to the outside from the annular space 50 through the discharge holes 15 and the oil discharge holes 8. The

外輪ハウジング10の内周面形状について説明する。外輪ハウジング10の内周面12は、軸方向両側部11,11に設けられている環状の取り付け面31,31と、これら取り付け面31,31の間に設けられている円筒面32とを有している。取り付け面31は、外輪22を取り付けるための部分であり、この取り付け面31に外輪22は圧入により取り付けられている。   The inner peripheral surface shape of the outer ring housing 10 will be described. The inner peripheral surface 12 of the outer ring housing 10 has annular mounting surfaces 31, 31 provided on both axial sides 11, 11 and a cylindrical surface 32 provided between these mounting surfaces 31, 31. doing. The attachment surface 31 is a portion for attaching the outer ring 22, and the outer ring 22 is attached to the attachment surface 31 by press-fitting.

図3は、前記軸受装置1の一部を拡大した断面図である。円筒面32は、環状空間50の外周面を構成する面であり、この円筒面32は、軸方向両側の第一内周面33,33と、軸方向中央側の第二内周面34とを有している。第一内周面33は、外輪ハウジング10の中心線Lを中心とする直線状の円筒面からなり、外輪22の内径Bよりも大きな内径Aを有している(A>B)。なお、外輪22の内径Bは、外輪22の肩部22aにおける内径である。このように第一内周面33は、外輪22の内径Bよりも大きな内径Aを有しており、内輪23と外輪22との間の軸受空間Qよりも、環状空間50を径方向外側へ拡大させている。   FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a part of the bearing device 1. The cylindrical surface 32 is a surface constituting the outer peripheral surface of the annular space 50, and the cylindrical surface 32 includes first inner peripheral surfaces 33, 33 on both sides in the axial direction and a second inner peripheral surface 34 on the central side in the axial direction. have. The first inner peripheral surface 33 is a linear cylindrical surface centered on the center line L of the outer ring housing 10 and has an inner diameter A larger than the inner diameter B of the outer ring 22 (A> B). The inner diameter B of the outer ring 22 is the inner diameter of the shoulder 22a of the outer ring 22. Thus, the first inner peripheral surface 33 has an inner diameter A larger than the inner diameter B of the outer ring 22, and the annular space 50 is more radially outward than the bearing space Q between the inner ring 23 and the outer ring 22. It is expanding.

なお、第一内周面33の内径Aは、取り付け面31の内径Dよりも小さい。この構成により、取り付け面31と第一内周面33との間には、外輪22を軸方向から当接させる面28が形成され、この面28により、外輪22の軸方向の位置決めが行われる。   The inner diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33 is smaller than the inner diameter D of the mounting surface 31. With this configuration, a surface 28 that abuts the outer ring 22 in the axial direction is formed between the attachment surface 31 and the first inner peripheral surface 33, and the axial positioning of the outer ring 22 is performed by this surface 28. .

また、第二内周面34は、この第一内周面33の内径Aよりも大きな内径(C)を有している面であり、この第二内周面34により、環状空間50を径方向外側へ更に拡大させている。また、本実施形態では、第二内周面34は、軸方向中央に位置している円筒底面35と、この円筒底面35の軸方向両側に設けられているテーパ面36,36とを有している。   The second inner peripheral surface 34 is a surface having an inner diameter (C) larger than the inner diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33, and the second inner peripheral surface 34 allows the annular space 50 to have a diameter. It is further expanded outward in the direction. In the present embodiment, the second inner peripheral surface 34 has a cylindrical bottom surface 35 positioned at the center in the axial direction, and tapered surfaces 36, 36 provided on both axial sides of the cylindrical bottom surface 35. ing.

円筒底面35は、外輪ハウジング10の中心線Lを中心とする直線状の円筒面からなり、円筒底面35の内径Cは、第一内周面33の直径Aよりも大きく(C>A)、円筒面32の範囲で内径が最大となる部分である。
そして、図2に示すように、この円筒底面35の一部(下部)において排出孔15が開口している。排出孔15は断面円形であり、その開口(取り入れ口)における直径と円筒底面35の軸方向寸法とは同じである。
The cylindrical bottom surface 35 is a linear cylindrical surface centered on the center line L of the outer ring housing 10, and the inner diameter C of the cylindrical bottom surface 35 is larger than the diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33 (C> A). This is the portion where the inner diameter is maximum in the range of the cylindrical surface 32.
As shown in FIG. 2, the discharge hole 15 is opened in a part (lower part) of the cylindrical bottom surface 35. The discharge hole 15 has a circular cross section, and the diameter at the opening (intake port) and the axial dimension of the cylindrical bottom surface 35 are the same.

図3において、軸方向両側のテーパ面36それぞれは、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向中央側から軸方向両側へ向かうにつれて直径が小さくなる傾斜面であり、円筒底面35と軸方向両側の第一内周面33,33それぞれとを繋げている面である。このため、テーパ面36の小径部の直径は第一内周面33の直径Aと同じであり、テーパ面36の大径部の直径は円筒底面35の直径Cと同じである。   In FIG. 3, each of the tapered surfaces 36 on both axial sides is an inclined surface whose diameter decreases from the axial center to the both axial sides of the outer ring housing 10, and the cylindrical bottom surface 35 and the first inner circumferences on both axial sides. This is a surface connecting the surfaces 33 and 33. For this reason, the diameter of the small diameter portion of the tapered surface 36 is the same as the diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33, and the diameter of the large diameter portion of the tapered surface 36 is the same as the diameter C of the cylindrical bottom surface 35.

以上、本実施形態に係る軸受装置1によれば、前記のとおり、ケーシング2の内周面5と外輪ハウジング10の外周面16との間に供給された油は、軸方向両側それぞれにおいて、外輪ハウジング10の軸方向の端面17とケーシング2内の側壁面6との間を経て、転がり軸受20内に供給される。そして、転がり軸受20,20それぞれを通過した油は、環状空間50を流れ、さらに、この環状空間50から排出孔15及び排油孔8を通じて外部へ排出される。   As described above, according to the bearing device 1 according to the present embodiment, as described above, the oil supplied between the inner peripheral surface 5 of the casing 2 and the outer peripheral surface 16 of the outer ring housing 10 It is supplied into the rolling bearing 20 through the space between the axial end surface 17 of the housing 10 and the side wall surface 6 in the casing 2. The oil that has passed through each of the rolling bearings 20 and 20 flows through the annular space 50, and is further discharged from the annular space 50 to the outside through the discharge hole 15 and the oil discharge hole 8.

そこで、外輪ハウジング10とスペーサ9との間であって、軸方向両側の転がり軸受20,20の間に形成される環状空間50に着目して説明する。本実施形態に係る軸受装置1によれば、外輪ハウジング10の内周面のうち、第一内周面33は、外輪22の内径Bよりも大きな内径Aを有しているため、内輪23と外輪22との間の軸受空間Qよりも、環状空間50を径方向外側へ拡大させることができる。さらに、第二内周面34は、第一内周面33の内径Aよりも大きな内径(C)を有しているため、環状空間50を更に径方向外側へ拡大させることができる。   Therefore, description will be made by paying attention to the annular space 50 formed between the rolling bearings 20 and 20 between the outer ring housing 10 and the spacer 9 and on both axial sides. According to the bearing device 1 according to the present embodiment, among the inner peripheral surfaces of the outer ring housing 10, the first inner peripheral surface 33 has an inner diameter A larger than the inner diameter B of the outer ring 22. The annular space 50 can be expanded radially outward than the bearing space Q between the outer ring 22 and the outer ring 22. Furthermore, since the second inner peripheral surface 34 has an inner diameter (C) larger than the inner diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33, the annular space 50 can be further expanded radially outward.

このように、環状空間50を段階的に拡大させることで、環状空間50における油の流路断面を徐々に大きくさせることができる。このため、転がり軸受20を通過した油を環状空間50で流れやすくすることができ、この油を効率良く排出孔15から排出させることが可能となる。この結果、環状空間50に油が滞留するのを防ぎ、転がり軸受20における油の撹拌抵抗が大きくなるのを防止することが可能となる。したがって、回転軸3の回転抵抗が大きくなるのを防ぐことができ、ターボチャージャとしての機能を十分に発揮させることが可能となる。   Thus, by expanding the annular space 50 in stages, the oil flow passage cross section in the annular space 50 can be gradually increased. For this reason, the oil that has passed through the rolling bearing 20 can be easily flown in the annular space 50, and this oil can be efficiently discharged from the discharge hole 15. As a result, it is possible to prevent oil from staying in the annular space 50 and prevent the oil stirring resistance in the rolling bearing 20 from increasing. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the rotational resistance of the rotary shaft 3 from increasing, and it is possible to fully exhibit the function as a turbocharger.

また、図2に示すように、第一内周面33は、スペーサ9の外周面と対面しており、また、第二内周面34も、スペーサ9の外周面と対面している。つまり、スペーサ9の外周面と第一内周面33との間には、油の流れを阻害する部分が存在せず、油の流れを阻害しない空洞の空間が形成されている。また、スペーサ9の外周面と第二内周面34との間には、油の流れを阻害する部分が存在せず、油の流れを阻害しない空洞の空間が形成されている。このため、油が環状空間50の一部で滞留するのを防止することができる。
なお、本実施形態ではスペーサ9が設けられているが、スペーサ9が省略されている場合、第一内周面33及び第二内周面34は、回転軸3の外周面と対面する。
In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the first inner peripheral surface 33 faces the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9, and the second inner peripheral surface 34 also faces the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9. That is, between the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9 and the first inner peripheral surface 33, there is no portion that obstructs the oil flow, and a hollow space that does not obstruct the oil flow is formed. Further, between the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9 and the second inner peripheral surface 34, there is no portion that obstructs the oil flow, and a hollow space that does not obstruct the oil flow is formed. For this reason, oil can be prevented from staying in a part of the annular space 50.
Although the spacer 9 is provided in the present embodiment, when the spacer 9 is omitted, the first inner peripheral surface 33 and the second inner peripheral surface 34 face the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft 3.

さらに、図3に示すように、第二内周面34は、内径が最大である軸方向中央の円筒底面35と、この円筒底面35と軸方向両側の第一内周面33,33それぞれとを繋げているテーパ面36,36とを有している。このため、転がり軸受20内から環状空間50に流れた油を、第一内周面33側からテーパ面36に沿って円筒底面35側へと導くことができる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the second inner peripheral surface 34 includes a cylindrical bottom surface 35 at the center in the axial direction having the maximum inner diameter, and the cylindrical bottom surface 35 and the first inner peripheral surfaces 33 and 33 on both sides in the axial direction. And tapered surfaces 36, 36 connecting the two. For this reason, the oil that has flowed from the rolling bearing 20 into the annular space 50 can be guided from the first inner peripheral surface 33 side along the tapered surface 36 to the cylindrical bottom surface 35 side.

そして、この円筒底面35には、油を外部へ排出するための排出孔15(図2参照)が形成されており、この排出孔15の開口(取り入れ口)から見ると、この開口は、テーパ面36と連続している。このため、円筒底面35側へと流れてきた油は、排出孔15へと導かれ、この排出孔15の取り入れ口から油を取り入れやすくすることができる。つまり、油が環状空間50に滞留し難くすることが可能となる。   A discharge hole 15 (see FIG. 2) for discharging oil to the outside is formed in the cylindrical bottom surface 35. When viewed from the opening (intake port) of the discharge hole 15, this opening is tapered. It is continuous with the surface 36. For this reason, the oil that has flowed to the cylindrical bottom surface 35 side is guided to the discharge hole 15, and the oil can be easily taken from the intake port of the discharge hole 15. That is, it is possible to make it difficult for oil to stay in the annular space 50.

また、本実施形態では、第一内周面33の内径Aは、取り付け面31の内径Dよりも小さい。このため、第一内周面33の径方向の位置を、転がり軸受20の外輪22の内周面26と、取り付け面31との間にすることができ、転がり軸受20内の油を段階的に環状空間50の広くなる領域(第二内周面34側の領域)へと導き、油を環状空間50で流れやすくすることができる。   In the present embodiment, the inner diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33 is smaller than the inner diameter D of the mounting surface 31. For this reason, the radial position of the first inner peripheral surface 33 can be set between the inner peripheral surface 26 of the outer ring 22 of the rolling bearing 20 and the mounting surface 31, and the oil in the rolling bearing 20 is stepped. It is possible to guide the oil into the region where the annular space 50 becomes wider (region on the second inner peripheral surface 34 side) and to make the oil flow easily in the annular space 50.

また、本実施形態では、回転軸3の径方向外側に円筒体からなるスペーサ9が設けられている。このスペーサ9の内周面は、軸方向沿って直径(内径)が一定である円筒面であるが、外周面は、軸方向に沿って直径(外径)が変化する円筒面である。つまり、図3に示すように、外周面は、軸方向両側の第一環状面45と、この第一環状面45よりも直径が大きい軸方向中央側の第二環状面46と、第二環状面46と第一環状面45とを繋げているテーパ外周面47とを有している。   In the present embodiment, a spacer 9 made of a cylindrical body is provided on the radially outer side of the rotating shaft 3. The inner peripheral surface of the spacer 9 is a cylindrical surface whose diameter (inner diameter) is constant along the axial direction, but the outer peripheral surface is a cylindrical surface whose diameter (outer diameter) varies along the axial direction. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer peripheral surface includes a first annular surface 45 on both axial sides, a second annular surface 46 on the axially central side having a diameter larger than that of the first annular surface 45, and a second annular surface. A tapered outer peripheral surface 47 connecting the surface 46 and the first annular surface 45 is provided.

第一環状面45の外径は、内輪23の小径側の部分における外周面の外径Eと、同じ又は僅かに小さく設定されている。これに対して、第二環状面46の外径Fは、内輪23の小径側の部分における外周面の外径Eよりも大きく設定されている。第二環状面46の外径Fを大きくすることで、スペーサ9の強度を確保している。そして、転がり軸受20を通過した油がスムーズにスペーサ9の外周面に沿って流れるように、前記のように設定された第一環状面45、及び、テーパ外周面47が形成されている。   The outer diameter of the first annular surface 45 is set to be the same as or slightly smaller than the outer diameter E of the outer peripheral surface in the small diameter side portion of the inner ring 23. On the other hand, the outer diameter F of the second annular surface 46 is set to be larger than the outer diameter E of the outer peripheral surface in the small diameter side portion of the inner ring 23. The strength of the spacer 9 is ensured by increasing the outer diameter F of the second annular surface 46. The first annular surface 45 and the tapered outer peripheral surface 47 set as described above are formed so that the oil that has passed through the rolling bearing 20 flows smoothly along the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9.

また、内輪23の小径側の部分における外周面の外径Eが、スペーサ9の外周面の直径よりも大きい場合、又は、これら直径が同じである場合、前記のようなテーパ外周面を形成しないで、外周面の直径が軸方向に沿って同じである直線状のスペーサとすることができる。   Further, when the outer diameter E of the outer peripheral surface in the portion on the small diameter side of the inner ring 23 is larger than the diameter of the outer peripheral surface of the spacer 9 or when these diameters are the same, the tapered outer peripheral surface as described above is not formed. Thus, the spacer can be a linear spacer having the same outer diameter along the axial direction.

また、本発明の軸受装置は、図示する形態に限らず本発明の範囲内において他の形態のものであっても良い。例えば、前記実施形態では、第一内周面33の内径Aは、取り付け面31の内径Dよりも小さい場合について説明したが、(図示しないが)内径Dを内径Aと同じにしてもよい。   Further, the bearing device of the present invention is not limited to the illustrated form, and may be of another form within the scope of the present invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the inner diameter A of the first inner peripheral surface 33 is smaller than the inner diameter D of the attachment surface 31 has been described, but the inner diameter D may be the same as the inner diameter A (not shown).
