Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf das Gebiet der Abgasturbolader für aufgeladene Brennkraftmaschinen. Sie betrifft ein Radiallager eines solchen Abgasturboladers.The invention relates to the field of exhaust gas turbochargers for supercharged internal combustion engines. It relates to a radial bearing of such exhaust gas turbocharger.
Stand der TechnikState of the art
Abgasturbolader werden zur Leistungssteigerung von Brennkraftmaschinen (Hubkolbenmotoren) eingesetzt. Ein Abgasturbolader besteht aus einer Abgasturbine im Abgasstrom der Brennkraftmaschine und einem Verdichter im Ansaugtrakt der Brennkraftmaschine. Das Turbinenrad der Abgasturbine wird vom Abgasstrom des Motors in Rotation versetzt und treibt über eine Welle das Laufrad des Verdichters an. Der Verdichter erhöht den Druck im Ansaugtrakt der Brennkraftmaschine, so dass beim Ansaugen eine größere Menge Luft in die Brennkammern gelangt.Exhaust gas turbochargers are used to increase the performance of internal combustion engines (reciprocating engines). An exhaust gas turbocharger consists of an exhaust gas turbine in the exhaust gas stream of the internal combustion engine and a compressor in the intake tract of the internal combustion engine. The turbine wheel of the exhaust gas turbine is set in rotation by the exhaust gas flow of the engine and drives the impeller of the compressor via a shaft. The compressor increases the pressure in the intake tract of the internal combustion engine, so that when sucking a larger amount of air enters the combustion chambers.
Zur Verbesserung der Dynamik des das Turbinenrad, das Verdichterrad und die Welle umfassenden Rotors des Abgasturboladers werden die Lagerbüchsen der Radiallager oft nicht fest ins Lagergehäuse eingebaut, sondern schwimmend, mit radialem Spiel.To improve the dynamics of the turbine wheel, the compressor wheel and the shaft comprising the rotor of the exhaust gas turbocharger, the bearing bushes of the radial bearings are often not firmly installed in the bearing housing, but floating, with radial play.
Diese Anordnung wird als Quetschöldämpfer bezeichnet. Um ein allfälliges Mitrotieren der Lagerbüchse mit der darin gelagerten Welle zu verhindern, wird eine Positionierung benötigt, welche aber eine Bewegung im radialen Spiel ermöglicht. Diese Positionierung wird in herkömmlichen Abgasturboladern beispielsweise durch ins Lagergehäuse geschraubte Stiftschrauben und entsprechende Bohrungen in der Radiallagerbüchse realisiert. Fig. 5 zeigt eine derartige Anordnung gemäss dem Stand der Technik, wie sie verbreitet, etwa in Abgasturboladern des Typs TPL der Firma ABB, verwendet werden.This arrangement is referred to as squeeze oil damper. In order to prevent any Mitrotieren the bearing bush with the shaft mounted therein, a positioning is needed, but which allows movement in the radial play. This positioning is realized in conventional exhaust gas turbochargers, for example by screwed into the bearing housing stud bolts and corresponding holes in the radial bearing bush. Fig. 5 shows such a prior art arrangement as used widely, such as in TPL turbochargers of the ABB company.
Bekannt sind auch Lösungen, bei welchen axial erstreckende Positionierungsstifte an einer Stirnseite der Radiallagerbüchse angeordnet sind.Also known are solutions in which axially extending positioning pins are arranged on an end face of the radial bearing bush.
Die Stirnseiten der Radiallagerbüchsen können als Axiallager ausgebildet sein. Im Beispiel gemäss Fig. 5 ist das Hilfs-Axiallager in die Radiallagerbüchse integriert. Das Hilfs-Axiallager nimmt die Kräfte entgegen der Hauptschubrichtung auf. Die Kraft von der optional profiliert ausgebildeten Hilfslagerfläche wird an der gegenüberliegenden Stirnseite der Radiallagerbüchse auf das Lagergehäuse übertragen.The end faces of the radial bearing bushes can be designed as thrust bearings. In the example according to FIG. 5, the auxiliary thrust bearing is integrated into the radial bearing bush. The Auxiliary thrust bearing absorbs the forces against the main thrust direction. The force of the optionally profiled formed auxiliary bearing surface is transmitted to the bearing housing on the opposite end face of the radial bearing bush.
In der US 6 017 184 ist ein noch stärker integriertes Lagersystem offenbart.

Kurze Darstellung der ErfindungBrief description of the invention
Erfindungsgemäss wird zur Verhinderung der Rotation der Radiallagerbüchse ein Formschluss zwischen der Radiallagerbüchse und dem umliegenden Lagergehäuse realisiert. Der Formschluss zur Verhinderung der Rotation wird durch eine Kontur an einer Stirnseite der Radiallagerbüchse und im Gehäuse realisiert. Damit kann auf zusätzliche Elemente wie die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Stiftschrauben verzichtet werden.According to the invention a positive connection between the radial bearing bush and the surrounding bearing housing is realized to prevent the rotation of the radial bearing bush. The form fit to prevent rotation is realized by a contour on an end face of the radial bearing bush and in the housing. This can be dispensed with additional elements such as the stud bolts known from the prior art.
Die Form der Kontur kann dabei so gestaltet werden, dass nur eine einzige Einbauposition des Radiallagers im Gehäuse möglich ist.The shape of the contour can be designed so that only a single mounting position of the radial bearing in the housing is possible.
Gleichzeitig verhindert ein in radialer Richtung vorstehender Bund (Kragen) an der Radiallagerbüchse deren axiale Verschiebung in eine Richtung. Bei Radiallagern mit integriertem Hilfs-Axiallager wird zudem die Kraft vom Hilfslager aufs Gehäuse über den Bund übertragen. Durch die wesentlich kürzere Abstützlänge wird die thermische Verkleinerung des Axialspiels stark reduziert. Die Kontur zur Verhinderung der Rotation der Radiallagerbüchse im Gehäuse wird vorteilhafterweise in dem Bund realisiert.At the same time prevents a radially projecting collar (collar) on the radial bearing bush their axial displacement in one direction. In the case of radial bearings with integrated auxiliary thrust bearing, the force is also transferred from the auxiliary bearing to the housing via the collar. Due to the significantly shorter support length, the thermal reduction of the axial clearance is greatly reduced. The contour for preventing the rotation of the radial bearing bush in the housing is advantageously realized in the collar.
Die axiale Verschiebung der Radiallagerbüchse in die andere Richtung wird im Betrieb durch das Hilfs-Axiallager unterbunden. Bei der Montage (Einfahren der Turbinenwelle) wird dies durch einen Sicherungsring oder eine Montagesicherungsschraube verhindert. Kurze Beschreibung der ZeichnungenThe axial displacement of the radial bearing bush in the other direction is prevented during operation by the auxiliary thrust bearing. During assembly (retraction of the turbine shaft) this is prevented by a circlip or a mounting locking screw. Brief description of the drawings

Weg zur Ausführung der ErfindungWay to carry out the invention
Fig. 1 zeigt in einer Ansicht ein aufgeschnittenes Radiallager eines Abgasturboladers. Nicht dargestellt ist die Welle, welche im Radiallager drehbar gelagert ist. In dem Lagergehäuse 30, welches bei modernen Abgasturboladern zwischen dem Verdichter und der Turbine angeordnet ist, ist eine Radiallagerbüchse 40 mit geringem radialem Spiel eingesetzt. Zwischen dem Lagergehäuse und dem äusseren Umfang der Radiallagerbüchse ist ein mit Öl versorgter Schmierspalt angeordnet. Zur Sicherstellung der Ölversorgung entlang des Umfangs der Radiallagerbüchse ist ein umlaufender Ölversorgungskanal 42 vorgesehen. Die Radiallagerbüchse 40 wird in der dargestellten Ausführungsform von links in die Öffnung im Lagergehäuse eingesetzt. Dank eines in radialer Richtung vorstehenden, umlaufenden Bundes (Kragen) 44 ist die axiale Verschiebbarkeit in die Einsetzrichtung begrenzt. Um ein herausfallen der eingesetzten Radiallagerbüchse zu verhindern, kann im Lagergehäuse eine Nut 32 zur Aufnahme eines Sicherungsringes vorgesehen sein. Der Sicherungsring 49 ist im Schnittbild der Fig. 3 in der eingesetzten Position zu sehen. Erfindungsgemäss wird zur Verhinderung der Rotation der Radiallagerbüchse ein Formschluss zwischen der Radiallagerbüchse und dem umliegenden Lagergehäuse realisiert. Der Formschluss zur Verhinderung der Rotation wird in der dargestellten Ausführungsform durch eine Kontur 45 im radial vorstehenden Bund der Radiallagerbüchse und einer entsprechenden Ausformung im Lagergehäuse realisiert.Fig. 1 shows in a view a cut radial bearing of an exhaust gas turbocharger. Not shown is the shaft which is rotatably mounted in the radial bearing. In the bearing housing 30, which is arranged in modern exhaust gas turbochargers between the compressor and the turbine, a radial bearing bush 40 is used with low radial clearance. Between the bearing housing and the outer circumference of the radial bearing bush, a lubrication gap supplied with oil is arranged. To ensure the oil supply along the circumference of the radial bearing bush, a circumferential oil supply channel 42 is provided. The radial bearing bushing 40 is inserted from the left into the opening in the bearing housing in the illustrated embodiment. Thanks to a radially projecting, circumferential federal (collar) 44, the axial displacement is limited in the direction of insertion. To prevent falling out of the radial bearing bush used, a groove 32 may be provided for receiving a retaining ring in the bearing housing. The locking ring 49 can be seen in the sectional view of FIG. 3 in the inserted position. According to the invention a positive connection between the radial bearing bush and the surrounding bearing housing is realized to prevent the rotation of the radial bearing bush. The form fit to prevent rotation is realized in the illustrated embodiment by a contour 45 in the radially projecting collar of the radial bearing bush and a corresponding shape in the bearing housing.
Die Form der Kontur kann dabei so gestaltet werden, dass nur eine einzige Einbauposition der Radiallagerbüchse im Lagergehäuse möglich ist, oder dass die Radiallagerbüchse nur in einer bestimmten Winkellage eingesetzt werden kann. Damit kann beispielsweise die relative Lage einer externen Ölzufuhr zu den in die Radiallagerbüchse eingelassenen Kanälen und Durchführungen zur Ölversorgung gezielt eingestellt werden.The shape of the contour can be designed so that only a single mounting position of the radial bearing bush in the bearing housing is possible, or that the radial bearing bush can be used only in a certain angular position. Thus, for example, the relative position of an external oil supply to the recessed into the radial bearing bushing channels and bushings for oil supply can be adjusted.
Bei Radiallagern mit integriertem Hilfs-Axiallager, also einem Axiallager entgegen der Hauptbelastungsrichtung, kann die Kraft vom Hilfslager aufs Lagergehäuse über den radial vorstehenden Bund übertragen werden. Die Fläche 41 auf der Stirnseite der Radiallagerbüchse ist hierfür als Lagerfläche ausgebildet. Durch die wesentlich kürzere Abstützlänge wird die thermische Verkleinerung des Axialspiels stark reduziert.In radial bearings with integrated auxiliary thrust bearing, so a thrust bearing against the main load direction, the force can be transmitted from the auxiliary bearing on the bearing housing on the radially projecting collar. The surface 41 on the end face of the radial bearing bush is designed for this purpose as a bearing surface. Due to the significantly shorter support length, the thermal reduction of the axial clearance is greatly reduced.
Fig. 2 zeigt die Radiallagerbüchse ohne Lagergehäuse. Deutlich sichtbar ist der umlaufend ausgebildete Ölversorgungskanal 42 sowie eine Durchführung für das Schmieröl durch die Radiallagerbüchse. Fig. 3 zeigt einen entlang der Welle des Abgasturboladers geführten Schnitt durch ein erfindungsgemäss ausgebildetes Radiallager. Die Hilfslagerfläche 41 auf der Stirnseite der Radiallagerbüchse nimmt bei Bedarf Kraft auf vom links angrenzend angeordneten, rotierenden Bauteil, welches das Verdichterrad oder ein zwischen dem Verdichterrad und einer axialen Wellenschulter eingeklemmtes Bauteil sein kann. Die aufgenommene Kraft wird über den radial vorstehenden Bund auf einen Axialanschlag des Lagergehäuses 30 übertragen.Fig. 2 shows the radial bearing bush without bearing housing. Clearly visible is the circumferentially formed oil supply channel 42 and a passage for the lubricating oil through the radial bearing bush. FIG. 3 shows a section along the shaft of the exhaust-gas turbocharger through a radial bearing designed in accordance with the invention. If necessary, the auxiliary bearing surface 41 on the end face of the radial bearing bushing receives power from the left-adjacent rotating component, which may be the compressor wheel or a component clamped between the compressor wheel and an axial shaft shoulder. The absorbed force is transmitted via the radially projecting collar to an axial stop of the bearing housing 30.
Fig. 4 zeigt ein Turbolader-Schnittbild mit erfindungsgemässer Ausführung des Verdichter- und turbinenseitigen Radiallagers. Bei dieser Ausführung kann die axiale Verschiebung des turbinenseitigen Radiallagers in Richtung Turbine durch einen oder mehrere in einen Lagerdeckel 31 integrierte Stege unterbunden werden. Alternativ könnte diese Funktion durch einen Sicherungsring realisiert werden. Wird ein Turbolader, etwa durch einen Defekt oder durch fehlerhafte Bedienung ohne Lagerschmierung betrieben, kann in den Lagern bereits nach kurzer Zeit ein starker Verschleiss auftreten. Im Extremfall kann aufgrund der enorm hohen Wärmeentwicklung die Welle mit der Radiallagerbüchse verschweissen. Bei einer Verschweissung im turbinenseitigen Radiallager wird die Demontage der Welle durch den Dichtungsdeckel behindert. Da die Befestigungsschrauben 60 des Dichtungsdeckels 31 am Lagergehäuse 30 bei montierter Welle 20 und daran befestigtem Turbinenrad 10 nicht gelöst werden können, verfügen die Befestigungsschrauben 60 erfindungsgemäss über eine Sollbruchstelle 61. Diese brechen beim Herauspressen der Welle mit verschweisstem turbinenseitigem Radiallager aus dem Lagergehäuse und schützen somit die Gewindebohrungen im Lagergehäuse 30 vor Beschädigungen. Anstelle der dargestellten Befestigungsschrauben können andere Befestigungsmittel mit entsprechenden Sollbruchstellen verwendet werden. 4 shows a turbocharger sectional view with an embodiment of the compressor and turbine-side radial bearing according to the invention. In this embodiment, the axial displacement of the turbine-side radial bearing in the direction of the turbine can be prevented by one or more webs integrated in a bearing cap 31. Alternatively, this function could be realized by a snap ring. If a turbocharger is operated, for example due to a defect or due to incorrect operation without bearing lubrication, a high level of wear can occur in the bearings after only a short time. In extreme cases, the shaft can be welded to the radial bearing bush due to the enormously high heat development. When welding in the turbine-side radial bearing disassembly of the shaft is hindered by the seal cover. Since the mounting screws 60 of the seal cover 31 on the bearing housing 30 with mounted shaft 20 and attached turbine wheel 10 can not be solved, the mounting screws 60 according to the invention have a predetermined breaking point 61. These break when pressed out the shaft with welded Turbinenseitigem radial bearing from the bearing housing and thus protect the threaded holes in the bearing housing 30 from damage. Instead of the illustrated fastening screws other fasteners can be used with appropriate breaking points.
