This invention relates to a means for main+ taining the centermg of a supporting or r ng member, suchas the blade carryingelement of a steam turbine, on a supporting shaft. 6 The high speeds at-which these turbines operate cause a corresponding amount of centrifugal force to be acting on the material of which the ring members are made. The diameter of the ring member increases with the IO'speed due to the increasedstress. Conse= quently, the ring members hadto be heated and shrunk onto the shaft in order that a rigid operative connection might stillbe had at the working speeds of the turbines; This 1 invention dispenses with the necessity of'heat treating the ring member and by merely providing a resilient element that is secured to the shaft at one end and that engages with the ring member at the other end to have a centered ring member at allworking speeds. On the drawing a pair of'ring members is shown mounted incontacting relation on ashaft of differentdiameters. v On the drawing 2 is the shaft; 3 and 4 the ring members; 5 and 6 the ring elements '5" 7 the keys for locking the ring members to the shaft-,8 and 9 are the shoulders on the shaft; 10-10 are the turbine blades; ll is the abut ment or annular flange on the ring element;
12 is the boreor internal diameterof the ring element; 13 the tubular portion of the ring element and 14 the bore of the ring'member.
In order to avoid the expense incidental to and danger in heating a ring member to shrink same onto a shaft that is to be rotated at high speeds, the applicant has invented the new and novel means for maintaining the centering of such a member, referred to above and now about to be more fully described. v
While two ring members are shown in con: tacting relation on the drawing itis notnecessary that they be so related nor-that a plurality be mounted on a shaft. The drawing described as used with ashaft of uniform diameter.
illustrates the invention used ing'connection As seen fromthe drawing, 4 may be any form or kind of a ring member'ofconsiderable'massand it may be keyed by a key 7 to a shaft 2 so as to be drivingly connected therewith. It will of course be understood that the invention is not limited to the shown key and slot means for effecting the driving connection betweenthe massive ring member and 'theshaft but any other suitable means may be used to accomplish this connection:.
Since the invention dispenses with the necessity of shrinking the ring member onto the shaft, the bore of the ring member may be'of the same diameter as that of the shaft orevenv of a slightly larger diameter. The boreof the ring member as shown is, however, not of a uniform diameter for reasons whichwill be presently stated r '6 is a ring element preferably of a material having a high elastic limit. Spring steel would be an ideal material from which to make such rings. The principal feature of the invention is to anchor 'or cause an interlocking relation between the outer periphery of the ring'element and the ring member while the innerperiphery of said element firmly grasps the shaft so as to, form arigid connection therewith. v
The. anchoring or interlocking relationbetween the said element and member may be obtained by providing the radiallydirected fiat portion of the ring element with a suitable fiange or abutment 11 that is received 7 in 'an annular groove, not numbered, in the ring member. v
It is apparent that the ring'element might be formed so as to have a fiat portion just r'eferredto and the flange or abutment 11, with the inner peripheral portion thereof in firm grasping contact with the shaft along a circumferential line that is not on the sur- 1 face ofthe shaft that is embraced or surrounded by thering member; o
However, in order tosave space applicant has designed the ring member so thatthe inner periphery of the ring element firmly grasps the surface ,ofthe shaft along a circumferential line that is on the surface of the shaft surrounded by the ring member. The ring element therefore isformed so as to have a tubular portion extendingfrom the flat or disk portion thereof in the same direction as the abutment or flange 11. The length of said tubular portion as shown may be considerably greater than the length of the key receiving slot provided in-thering member. In order that the describedpoin't of contact between the inner periphery of the ring element and shaft be had, the ring member 4: is provided with a bore of two different diameters the larger bore portion providing the space in which the tubular portion of the ring element is received. It
is preferable that the ring element .be provided with an annular flange that forms the surface of. contactbetween the ring element and the shaft. "Since the ring element -may be shrunk fit on the shaft, the diameter of the bore 12 of the annular flange, not *numr bered,:may be made less than the diameter of the shaft. 1
.:On the drawing 10 represents turbine or fan'blades that maybe carried by a massive ring member 4 rotating at high speeds in connection with which the invention is to be used. 7
Y The operation of the device is as follows. When .the massive ring member 4 is rotatingat high speed'there is'set up therein a corresponding centrifugal force. This subjects the material of which the ring member is made to a considerable stress which acts so as to enlarge the bore of the ring member and the member becomes uncentered. With thering element 6 as described engaging the ring m'ember, it remainscentered with respecttothe shaft over all operating speeds thereof even though they be high.
It should be understood that it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact de tails of construction herein shown and described, for various modifications withinthe scope of the claims may occur to persons skilled "in the art.
