A conventional general oil film seal type shaft sealing device had a structure as shown in FIG.
That is, a gas-side floating ring 2 and an atmosphere-side floating ring 3 having a small gap with respect to the rotating shaft 1 are provided in a shaft sealing chamber 5 formed in the shaft penetrating portion of the casing 4. By supplying shaft sealing oil at a pressure slightly higher than the gas pressure inside the machine (gas side A) from the sealing oil supply port 6 and forming an oil film in the gap between the shaft 1 and the gas side floating 2, the gas inside the machine is released from the outside. I tried to prevent it from leaking. The atmosphere-side floating ring 3 is provided to maintain the oil pressure of the shaft sealing oil supplied into the shaft sealing chamber 5, and a gap is appropriately formed between it and the shaft 1. The shaft sealing oil that has passed through the floating rings 2 and 3 is discharged to the outside of the machine from discharge ports 7 and 8, respectively. A bearing 9 fixed to the casing 4 is provided on the atmospheric side B of the shaft sealing chamber 5.
is lubricated by lubricating oil supplied from the lubricating oil supply port 10.

In the shaft sealing device configured in this way, since the shaft sealing device and the bearing are provided separately, the length between the bearings becomes long and the rigidity of the rotor system is reduced. In addition, the structure is complicated and the price is high.
Another disadvantage was that maintenance was difficult.

FIG. 2 shows a conventional shaft sealing device that improves the drawbacks of the shaft sealing device described above. This is the atmospheric side B of the shaft sealing chamber 5.
A fixing ring 11 is fixedly attached to the fixing ring 11.
In addition, the atmosphere side seal ring 3 and bearing 9 shown in FIG.
By performing both functions, the length between the bearings can be shortened and the structure can be simplified. In FIG. 2, parts given the same reference numerals as in FIG. 1 are the same parts. In a shaft sealing device configured in this way, the shaft sealing oil, which has a hydraulic pressure slightly higher than the in-machine gas pressure, also serves as lubricating oil for the bearings, so the lubricating oil pressure becomes high, which increases the bearing surface pressure and causes an oil film. It has the disadvantage of reducing the damping effect. Furthermore, since the fixed ring 11 has a pressure holding function for the shaft seal device and a function as a bearing, its length in the axial direction becomes long, and therefore the lubrication length of the shaft seal oil as a lubricating oil becomes long. As a result, the temperature of the lubricating oil increases significantly, which also has the disadvantage of easily causing seizure.

Next, the operation of the above-mentioned embodiment will be explained. Shaft sealing oil at a pressure slightly higher than the in-machine gas pressure is supplied from the shaft sealing oil supply port 6 to the shaft sealing chamber 5, forming a shaft sealing oil film between the gas side floating ring 2 and the shaft 1, and suppressing the in-machine gas. Seal to prevent leakage to the outside. The pressure of the shaft sealing oil in the shaft sealing chamber 5 is maintained by a pressure holding part 11a provided on the fixed ring 11, and the shaft sealing oil that has passed through the gap between this pressure holding part 11a and the shaft 1 is drained from the oil reservoir 11c. The oil is discharged to the outside through the oil port 12. On the other hand, the bearing lubricating oil reaches the outer periphery of the bearing portion 11c formed in the fixed ring 11 from the lubricating oil supply port 14 under the optimum pressure condition according to the bearing characteristics, and from there, the lubricating oil reaches the outer circumference of the bearing portion 11c formed in the fixed ring 11.
3, and is evenly supplied to the bearing surface from several locations on the outer periphery of the bearing portion. The lubricating oil supplied to the bearing surface flows in the left-right direction of the bearing part 11b while forming an oil film, and the lubricating oil flowing in one direction flows into the oil sump 11.
The lubricating oil reaches the end of the fixing ring 11 and is discharged to the outside from the oil drain port 12. With this configuration, the length between the bearings can be made much shorter than that of the conventional shaft sealing device shown in Figure 1, which increases the rigidity of the rotor system. can increase safety,
Since the structure is simplified, it can be made at low cost and maintenance can be performed easily. In addition, in the fixed ring 11, the pressure holding part 11a and the bearing part 11b are separated by the oil reservoir 11c, so lubricating oil at an appropriate pressure is supplied to the bearing part 11b, thereby optimizing the bearing surface pressure. Since the oil film damper effect can be maintained optimally, the pressure of the shaft sealing oil and lubricating oil can be adjusted independently depending on the operating conditions. Furthermore, since the lubricating oil is supplied from several locations on the outer circumferential side of the bearing part 11b, it is possible to uniformly supply the lubricating oil to the entire bearing part 11b to form an oil film, and also to eliminate oil stagnation. 11d is bearing part 1
Since the lubricating oil is formed almost in the center of the bearing part 1b, the distance through which the lubricating oil flows on the bearing surface is shortened, thereby reliably preventing an abnormal temperature rise of the lubricating oil.
This can prevent burn-in, etc.

FIGS. 4 and 5 show other embodiments of the apparatus of the present invention, and in the figures, parts given the same reference numerals as in FIG. 3 are the same parts. In this embodiment, in order to further suppress the whirling phenomenon of the shaft system, chamfers 15 are provided at several locations evenly on the bearing surface of the bearing portion 11b of the fixed ring 11, as shown in the figure. is the same as in the previous embodiment.

As described in detail above, the shaft sealing device of the present invention has a fixing ring having a pressure holding part and a bearing part fixedly installed on the atmospheric side of the shaft sealing chamber, and a space between the pressure holding part and the bearing part of the fixing ring. An oil sump is provided and communicated with the oil drain port, and an oil sump is also provided on the bearing and this communicates with the lubricating oil supply port, so the length between the bearings can be shortened. Since the damper effect of the bearing is not reduced, the stability of the shaft system can be improved. Furthermore, since the lubrication length of the lubricating oil supplied to the bearing portion is also shortened, there is an effect that an increase in the temperature of the lubricating oil can be reliably prevented.
