Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bearing bracket for a marine propulsion with two counter-rotating propellers according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a ship propulsion with two counter-rotating propellers according to the preamble of claim 10.
  • marine propulsion with two propellers driven in opposite directions can achieve a higher efficiency than ship propulsion systems with only one propeller. This is because the turbulence generated by a first propeller and not used for propulsion is partially "neutralized" by the second propeller. Furthermore occurs in ship propulsion systems with two propellers driven in opposite directions no so-called wheel effect, because the supporting torques of the two propellers compensate each other. This improves the maneuverability.
  • marine propulsion is understood to mean propulsion systems for smaller vessels such as sport and leisure boats as well as larger, commercially used ships.
  • a marine propulsion in which two propellers of a drive motor in opposite directions, i. rotating in opposite directions.
  • the two propellers are driven by a shaft system and a bevel gear arranged in a bearing block.
  • Two coaxial with each other arranged propeller shafts are stored in the bearing block.
  • Such a bearing block is also called Wellenbock.
  • the bearing block supports the part of the ship propulsion arranged outside the hull on the hull of the ship.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a bearing block for a marine propulsion with two counter-rotating propellers, which is improved over the prior art, in particular with regard to a simple structure and high efficiency. Furthermore, a corresponding ship propulsion is to be specified. These tasks are performed by a bearing block for a propeller shaft of a
  • the bearing block has a first bore for supporting a first propeller shaft and a second bore for supporting a second propeller shaft.
  • the second bore extends obliquely with respect to the first bore.
  • One of the second bore associated second Bohrungsstoffachse is thus arranged inclined to one of the first bore associated first Bohrungsstoffachse.
  • the Bohrungsstoffachsen the two holes can, for example, at an acute angle to each other.
  • the second bore may be tilted downwards relative to the first bore by a certain angle. Said angle may be in particular in the range of 10 to 45 degrees.
  • the two Bohrungsstoffachsen lie in a common vertical plane, so that the two mutually oblique Bohrungsstoffachsen the two holes intersect at a point.
  • the common vertical plane preferably runs along or parallel to a ship's longitudinal axis.
  • the ship's longitudinal axis runs in a balanced state at standstill of the boat in the longitudinal direction horizontally through the boat hull.
  • the term bore is understood to mean an elongated recess in the bearing block which is suitable for receiving a propeller shaft assigned to it, regardless of how the bore was produced. It may thus be, for example, a resulting in a casting process recess in the bearing block.
  • a straight shaft system is understood to mean a drive arrangement of a ship propulsion system in which a drive train runs straight from a drive shaft of a drive motor to the propeller shaft, that is to say along a common drive axle.
  • a first propeller is mounted in the region of the free end of the first propeller shaft, wherein the free end of the first propeller shaft substantially, that is, apart from its inclination in the vertical direction, is aligned against a main direction of travel of the ship.

  • the first propeller is arranged in the main direction of travel behind the bearing block and the second propeller is arranged in the main direction of travel in front of the bearing block. This means that, when traveling in the main direction of travel, the flow is directed from the second propeller towards the first propeller.
  • the bearing block may have a transmission interior, which is suitable to receive a bevel gear, via which a drive power from the first propeller shaft to the second propeller shaft is transferable.
  • the first propeller shaft may be part of a straight shaft system and the second propeller shaft is driven by the bevel gear via the first propeller shaft.
  • the oblique arrangement of the holes in the bearing block and the two propeller shafts to each other, for example, allows the use of a simply constructed bevel gear with only two bevel gears.
  • a bevel gear can be used in which the axes of rotation of the two bevel gears are arranged at an acute angle to each other and intersect. This reduces the space requirement and the production cost in comparison to solutions from the prior art. Furthermore, such a higher overall efficiency can be achieved.
  • the transmission interior is sealed by means of sealing elements oil-tight.
  • oil lubrication of the bevel gear can be realized, in which the properties of the lubricating oil can be optimized especially for the lubrication and cooling of the bevel gear.

The sealed to the transmission interior bearings themselves can be lubricated with a different lubricant, especially a bearing grease.
  • At least one sealing ring can be arranged in each of the first and second bores, which seals the first and second bores outwardly in a watertight manner. Since the bearing block is located below the waterline when used as intended, a watertight seal for the long-term reliable function of the ship propulsion is extremely important.
  • Guide vanes may be arranged laterally on the bearing block. Such guide vanes can support the deflection of the flow from the second propeller arranged in the main driving direction in front of the bearing block to the first propeller arranged behind the bearing block in the main driving direction.

  • the bearing block has a connection plate for attachment to a ship's hull, and that the connection plate has a flat, curved or spherical contact surface for engagement with the ship's hull.
  • the proposed bearing block can be used on differently shaped ship hulls.
  • the bracket can be easily adapted to the particular shape of the hull by selecting the appropriate connection plate and is thus used with little extra effort for a large number of different applications or ship hull shapes.
  • the bearing block may have a V-shaped fin, for example with a V-shaped through hole.
  • a V-shaped fin can absorb high tilting moments in the transverse direction and thereby similar to a simple, solid finish fin lighter and with less flow resistance.
  • a cap can be arranged in the region of the outlet opening of the second propeller shaft, so that the outlet opening can be closed by means of the cap.
  • a cap can be screwed for example by means of at least one threaded bore on the bearing block or jammed in the second bore.
  • the cap closing the outlet opening is advantageously streamlined and shaped to match the outer shape of the bearing block so that the cap forms a so-called "nose cone" which improves the hydrodynamics of the bearing block and the marine propulsion.

  • the first propeller is arranged on a first propeller shaft and the second propeller on a second propeller shaft, wherein the first propeller shaft is inclined with respect to the second propeller shaft. That is, the first and second propeller shafts are not arranged coaxially and not parallel to each other, as is the case with conventional ship propulsion reciprocating propellers.
  • the drive shafts extend from a drive motor to the propeller shaft at least approximately along a common drive axis, so that no deflection or bevel gear between the drive motor and the first propeller shaft are required.

  • a shaft system has fewer gear stages and bearing points compared to Z drives, POD drives, rear drives, drives with outboard motors or thruster drives.

Therefore, high efficiency can be achieved.
  • a first bevel gear is arranged on the first propeller shaft, wherein the first bevel gear engages with a second bevel gear arranged on the second propeller shaft.
