Description

[0001] BUSH DEVICE FOR SHIP [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a bushing device installed in a stern bulb of a ship to support a propeller.

The conventional bushing device is of a tubular shape for inserting a propeller shaft and supports the propeller shaft between the stern bulb and the propeller shaft. Since the propeller shaft of the ship is suspended with an excessive load propeller, a bushing device must be installed to protect the propeller shaft.

However, even if the bush supports the load of the propeller shaft, the excessive propeller load causes the propeller shaft to bend finely causing misalignment of the propeller shaft and bushing. If the alignment between the bushing device and the propeller shaft becomes poor, the load may be concentrated on a part of the bushing device, and the bushing device may be damaged. If the bushing device is broken, the flow of the propeller shaft is induced to reduce the propulsion efficiency. Therefore, the bushing device must be replaced periodically. Replacing the bushing device requires a lot of time and cost.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a bushing of a ship capable of reducing misalignment of the bush device and the propeller shaft.

A bushing apparatus for a ship according to one aspect of the present invention is a bushing apparatus for supporting a propeller shaft by being inserted into a stern bulb of a ship while enclosing a propeller shaft of a ship, Wherein the variable alignment tube has an outer surface facing the stern bulb and an inner surface facing the propeller shaft, the first baseline along the center of the outer surface has a first radius of curvature, The reference line has a second radius of curvature, and the first radius of curvature and the second radius of curvature may be different from each other.

Here, the first radius of curvature may be smaller than the second radius of curvature, the first reference line may be a curve, and the second reference line may be a straight line.

The bushing further includes a support member surrounding the variable alignment tube and inserted into the stern bulb, the support member having a first surface facing the stern bulb and a second surface facing the variable alignment tube, The third radius of curvature formed by the third reference line connecting the center of the first surface may be greater than the fourth radius of curvature formed by the fourth reference line extending from the center of the second surface.

In addition, the first reference line may be a straight line, and the second reference line may be a curve.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, since the center line of the inner surface and the outer surface of the variable alignment tube are formed to have different radii of curvature, the variable alignment tube can be inclined with the propeller shaft even when the propeller shaft is bent, Can be prevented from becoming poor.

1 and 2, a propeller 12 is installed on a stern bulb 10a, which is a rear end of a ship 10, via a propeller shaft 13. [ The propeller shaft 13 rotates in connection with the engine and transmits the power of the engine to the propeller. The propeller shaft 13 is inserted into the stern bulb 10a and the stern bulb 10a is formed with a passage 15 into which the propeller shaft 13 is inserted. The passages 15 according to the present embodiment may be formed in a straight line.

The bushing 40 of the vessel 10 according to the present embodiment includes a tubular tubular variable alignment tube 30 having both longitudinal ends open and a support member 20 surrounding the tubular tubular tubular body 30 do. The bushing 40 comprises a tube-type bearing. The variable alignment pipe 30 inserts the propeller shaft 13 and surrounds the propeller shaft 13 and is positioned between the stern bulb 10a and the propeller shaft 13. [

The variable alignment tube 30 includes an outer surface 32 facing the stern bulb 10a and an inner surface 36 facing the propeller shaft 13. The inner surface 36 of the variable alignment pipe 30 abuts the outer peripheral surface of the propeller shaft 13 and the outer surface 32 of the variable alignment pipe 30 abuts the support member.

The first reference line X11 connecting the center of the outer surface 32 of the variable alignment tube 30 is formed to have the first radius of curvature R1 and the center line of the inner surface 36 of the variable alignment tube 30 2 reference line X12 is formed to have a second radius of curvature R2. Here, the first radius of curvature R1 is different from the second radius of curvature R2, and the first radius of curvature R1 is smaller than the second radius of curvature R2. That is, the first reference line X11 is a curve having a first radius of curvature R1, and the second reference line X12 is a straight line having a radius of curvature infinity.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the variable alignment tube 30 has a curved shape when viewed from the outside, but the passage through the variable alignment tube 30 is formed in a straight line. The outer surface 32 of the variable alignment tube 30 has the convex portion 32a and the concave portion 32b.

2 and 3, the support member 20 according to the present embodiment supports a variable alignment tube 30 while covering the variable alignment tube 30, and has a tube shape with both ends open. The support member 20 is positioned between the variable alignment pipe 30 and the stern bulb 10a. The variable alignment pipe 30 can be slidably installed in the longitudinal direction of the support member 20. [

The support member 20 includes a first surface 22 facing the stern bulb 10a and a second surface 26 facing the variable alignment tube 30. The second surface 26, The first surface 22 abuts the passageway 15 formed in the stern bulb 10a and the second surface 26 abuts the outer surface 32 of the variable alignment tube 30. [
