Description

BEARING HOUSING OF AN EXHAUST-GAS TURBOCHARGER
DESCRIPTION The invention relates to a bearing housing as per the preamble of claim 1 and to a spacer as per the preamble of claim 9.
A generic bearing housing has a mounting bore in which a bearing device for mounting the shaft of the exhaust-gas turbocharger is arranged. Said bearing device has two bearing bushes, the spacing of which to one another is determined by a spacer arranged between the bearing bushes. In this way, a two-part floating bush bearing arrangement is preferably formed, wherein as a result of the rotation of the shaft, a torque is transmitted via the oil film to the bearing bushes, thereby causing the bearing bushes to co-rotate at approximately half of the rotational speed of the shaft. Said torque is in turn transmitted from the bearing bushes at the end sides thereof to the spacer, such that a so-called locating pin must be inserted into the spacer to prevent it from co-rotating. Said locating pin is for example a screw which is screwed into the bearing housing from the outside and the screw end of which engages into a recess of the spacer. The co-rotation of the spacer is hereby prevented, which is necessary because a sensor for measuring the rotor shaft engages into a bore of the spacer arranged diametrically opposite the locating pin. Said sensor must be arranged with its sensor head directly at the shaft surface without making contact with the shaft and without the sensor being damaged, together with the spacer, by a co-rotation of the spacer winch would occur without the locating pin.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a bearing housing of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1 which can be assembled in a simple manner in comparison with the prior art and which at the same time permits reliable prevention of the co-rotation of the spacer and therefore damage to the rotational speed sensor and to the spacer.
Said object is achieved by means of the features of claim 1.
Although DE 10 2009 016 688 Al discloses a sleeve element which has a passage opening, formed as a slot, for a rotational speed sensor, said sleeve element is not provided with a pin bore, such that during an exchange of the rotational speed sensor, an undesired rotation of the sleeve element can occur, as a result of which assembly problems may arise during the exchange of the rotational speed sensor.
The subclaims relate to advantageous refinements of the invention.
According to the invention, there is accordingly provided a closed spacer or a closed spacer bush which has two axially symmetrical slots and preferably two symmetrical oil drainage bores. As a result, directional installation of the spacer or of the spacer bush is not necessary. In fact, in the bearing housing, the locating pin, which is preferably designed as a screw, is screwed into the bearing housing through the spacer, which is possible in the case of spacers which are already arranged in the bearing housing because the locating pin can be guided through the mutually opposite recesses. The bearings can thereafter be arranged in the bearing housing, and the rotor shaft and the rotational speed sensor can be mounted subsequently.
Furthermore, the provision of preferably two closed slots advantageously has the effect that the end surfaces of the spacer bear over their full area against the respectively adjacent bearings, such that the spacer does not adversely affect the bearings during operation of the exhaust-gas turbocharger.
The rotational speed sensor (speed sensor) is screwed into the bearing housing from the other side such that the head of said rotational speed sensor projects through the associated sensor recess and can thereby be arranged close to the rotor shaft in order to ensure reliable signal pickup. Here, the rotational speed sensor may be provided with a threaded portion with a self-locking thread, which prevents the rotational speed sensor from becoming detached from its mounted position.
In contrast to the prior art, said design furthermore permits easy exchange of the rotational speed sensor, because during the removal of a rotational speed sensor to be exchanged, the spacer or spacer bush is held in its correct mounted position by the locating pin, such that when the new rotational speed sensor is screwed in, it can be mounted again into its correct mounted position close to the rotor shaft through the associated sensor recess.
The locating pin may be formed as an internally situated cylinder head screw.
The invention also relates to a spacer as claimed in claims 9 to 1 1 as a separately marketable object.
Further details, advantages and features of the present invention will emerge from the subsequent description of exemplary embodiments on the basis of the drawing, in which:
figure I shows a view of an exhaust-gas turbocharger according to the invention which can be provided with a bearing housing according to the principles of the present invention;
figure 2 shows a cut-away perspective illustration of a bearing housing according to the invention,
figure 3 shows an enlarged view of a rotational speed sensor mounted in the bearing housing,
figure 4 shows a longitudinal section through a part of the bearing housing as per figure 2, and figure 5 shows an enlarged longitudinal section through the part of the bearing housing as per figure 4.
Figure 1 illustrates an exhaust-gas turbocharger EGT according to the invention which has a turbine 16 and a compressor 15 which are connected to one another via a bearing housing 1 in which a shaft 37 is mounted.
As shown in the cut-away perspective illustration of figure 2, the bearing housing 1 according to the invention has a mounting bore 2 which runs in the axial direction through the bearing housing 1. Arranged in the mounting bore 2 is a bearing device 3 with two bearing bushes 4 and 5 which are held spaced apart by a spacer 6.
Figure 2 also shows that the rotor shaft 17 is guided through the bearing bushes 4 and 5 in the bearing housing 1.
Furthermore, figure 2 shows a pin bore 10 which is arranged in the bearing housing 1 and in which is inserted a locating pin 9 which serves as a rotation prevention means, as will be explained in detail below on the basis of a juxtaposition of figures 4 and 5.
The bearing housing 1 is furthermore provided with a rotational speed sensor which, owing to the illustration selected in figure 2, is not visible in said figure. The rotational speed sensor 7 is shown in the mounted state in the illustration of figure 3.
Furthermore, figures 4 and 5 show the arrangement of the rotational speed sensor 7 in a sensor recess (sensor bore) 8 of the bearing housing 1. The rotational speed sensor 7 is provided with a threaded portion 19 which is formed as a self-locking thread, such that the rotational speed sensor 7 can be captively fixed in the bearing housing 1.
The juxtaposition of figures 4 and 5 furthermore shows that the spacer or spacer bush 6 is provided with a sensor recess 8 which is formed as a slot and which is arranged diametrically opposite a pin recess 1 1 likewise formed as a closed slot 11, as can also be seen from the illustration of figure 2.
The pin bore 10 is provided with an internal thread 10a into which the locating pin 9 can be screwed with its threaded portion 9a, such that in the mounted state of the locating pin 9 illustrated in figures 2, 4 and 5, the pin head 12 of said locating pin engages into the pin recess 11 and thereby serves as a rotation prevention means for the spacer 6.
The rotational speed sensor 7 engages with its front end 7A into the sensor recess 8 such that said rotational speed sensor can be arranged close to the rotor shaft 17. Figures 4 and 5 also show that the spacer 6 is provided with two further bores 13 and 14, wherein owing to the sectional illustration of figures 4 and 5, only one of said bores 13 and 14 is visible, whereas the respective other bore, which is not visible, is of identical design and arranged diametrically opposite. Said bores 13 and 14 serve as oil supply and oil discharge bores.
As is also shown by figures 4 and 5, it is the case in the particularly preferred embodiment illustrated that the sensor recess 8 is formed so as to be longer than the pin recess 1 1 as viewed in the axial direction of the spacer 6, though this is not imperatively necessary.
Owing to the above-described design of the spacer 6, for assembly of the bearing housing 1, the provision of a spacer 6 designed according to the invention can be followed by the arrangement of said spacer in the bearing bore 2. The locating pin 9 is then screwed, through the sensor recess 8 and through the pin recess 1 1 , with its threaded portion 9a into the pin bore 10, wherein the pin head 12 engages into the pin recess 1 1 and thereby serves as a rotation prevention means. The bearing bushes 4 and 5 and the shaft 17 are subsequently mounted in the bearing housing 1. As a final assembly step, the rotational speed sensor 7 is mounted in the threaded portion 19 of the sensor bore 8A, wherein the front end 7 A engages into the sensor recess 8, as can be seen in particular from the illustration of figures 4 and 5.
Aside from the written disclosure of the invention above, reference is hereby explicitly made to the diagrammatic illustration of the invention in figures 1 to 5.
