That is, the portions on both sides of the back foil 11 and the protruding portion 40 of the intermediate foil 10 support the top foil 9 respectively. That is, the top wall portion 40a faces the top foil 9 in the radial direction.
- the top foil 9 is disposed so as to overlap the protruding portion 40 in the radial direction of the insertion hole 12a (the vertical direction in FIG. 9).
- the top wall portion 40a of the protruding portion 40 faces the outer peripheral surface (back surface) of the top foil 9 with a gap in the radial direction of the insertion hole 12a.
- the protruding portion 40 extends from the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 12 a to a radial position on the radially outer side (outer diameter side) from the top portion 11 c 1 of the peak portion 11 c of the back foil 11. That is, the protruding portion 40 does not protrude radially inward (inner diameter side) from the top portion 11c1 of the peak portion 11c. For this reason, when no load is applied, the top wall portion 40 a of the protruding portion 40 is separated from the outer peripheral surface of the top foil 9. It is preferable that the protrusion part 40 (top wall part 40a) has a height of 75% or less of the total height of the peak part 11c, for example.
- the protrusion part 40 is extended to the radial direction position of the radial inside (inner diameter side) with respect to the trough part 11b of the back foil 11.
- FIG. 7 a part of the edge of the back foil 11 that faces the protruding portion 40 can face the side wall portion 40 b, and the back foil 11 is positioned in the axial direction.
- the protrusion part 40 is extended to the radial direction position of the radial inside (inner diameter side) from the groove part 10c of the intermediate foil 10.

- the second groove portion 10 c 1 is recessed radially outward like the groove portion 10 c and is separated from the top foil 9.
- the second groove portion 10c1 comes into contact with the peak portion 11c of the back foil 11, and easily causes energy dissipation due to friction described later.
- the second groove portion 10c1 faces the side wall portion 40b of the protruding portion 40 in the axial direction and contributes to the positioning of the intermediate foil 10 in the axial direction. That is, the second groove portion 10c1 extends outward in the radial direction from the top wall portion 40a.
- the operation of the radial foil bearing 3 having such a configuration will be described.
- the top foil 9 is urged toward the rotating shaft 1 by the back foil 11 (three back foil pieces 11a) via the intermediate file 10 (three intermediate foil pieces 10a). It is in close contact with the rotating shaft 1.
- the force (local preload) for tightening the rotating shaft 1 in these thin portions 24 is less than that in the case where there is no thin portion 24. Is done.
- the rotating shaft 1 when the rotating shaft 1 is rotated in the direction of arrow P in FIG. 2, it starts rotating at a low speed first, and then gradually accelerates and rotates at a high speed. Then, as indicated by an arrow Q in FIG. 2, ambient fluid is drawn from one end side of the top foil 9, the intermediate foil 10, and the back foil 11 and flows between the top foil 9 and the rotating shaft 1. Thereby, a fluid lubricating film is formed between the top foil 9 and the rotating shaft 1.
- the film pressure of the fluid lubricating film acts on the top foil 9 and presses the individual peak portions 11c of the back foil piece 11a through the intermediate foil 10 in contact with the top foil 9. Then, when the back foil piece 11a is pressed by the intermediate foil 10, the crest portion 11c of the back foil piece 11a is pushed and spread, so that the back foil piece 11a moves on the bearing housing 12 in the circumferential direction of the back foil piece 11a. Try to move. That is, the back foil piece 11a (back foil 11) elastically supports the top foil 9 via the intermediate foil 10, and therefore deforms in the circumferential direction of the back foil piece 11a when receiving a load from the top foil 9. Thus, the top foil 9 and the intermediate foil 10 are allowed to bend and supported.
- an engaging member 30 (insertion portion 32) is inserted into a notch 26 formed in an end edge in the axial direction.
- the engagement member 30 is engaged with the engagement groove 25 of the bearing housing 12, and the rotation of the back foil piece 11 a in the circumferential direction is suppressed by inserting the engagement member 30 into the notch 26. Therefore, each peak portion 11c of the back foil piece 11a is deformed (moved) in the circumferential direction with the notch 26 with which the engaging member 30 is engaged being sandwiched.
- the insertion portion 32 of the engagement member 30 is in contact with the back foil piece 11a (notch 26), and also suppresses the movement of the back foil piece 11a in the axial direction. That is, the insertion part 32 of the engaging member 30 is in contact with the notch 26, and the movement of the back foil piece 11a in the axial direction is also suppressed. Furthermore, the engagement member 30 (return portion 33) extends to the outside of the formation range W of the notch 26 in the circumferential direction of the insertion hole 12a on the inner peripheral side of the back foil 11 that has passed through the notch 26.
- the engagement member 30 is formed with a return portion 33 on the inner peripheral side of the back foil 11 that has passed through the notch 26, and this prevents the back foil piece 11a from coming off in the radial direction. Therefore, dropping off of the back foil piece 11a is suppressed.
- the intermediate foil piece 10a bends together with the top foil 9 and the back foil piece 11a when transmitting a load from the top foil 9 to the back foil piece 11a.
- the intermediate foil piece 10a and the top foil 9 or the back foil piece 11a "Slip" occurs between them. That is, when a pressure fluctuation occurs in the fluid lubrication film due to the shaft vibration of the rotating shaft 1, the pressure fluctuation is transmitted to the top foil 9, and the above “slip” occurs. This “slip” causes energy dissipation due to friction and attenuates the film pressure fluctuation, so that the shaft vibration of the rotating shaft 1 is suppressed.
- the pressure of the fluid lubricating film is near the center in the axial direction of the insertion hole 12a (FIG. 9).
- the top foil 9 will be greatly bent as shown in FIG. As described above, when the top foil 9 is bent near the center in the axial direction of the insertion hole 12a, the fluid lubricating film becomes thick, and the pressure of the fluid lubricating film becomes weak.
- the radial displacement of the rotating shaft 1 proceeds and the outer diameter side of the top foil 9 starts to contact the top wall portion 40a of the protruding portion 40, the force to support the top foil 9 is increased, The deflection of the top foil 9 near the center in the axial direction of the hole 12a decreases. Then, even if the displacement in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 1 is slightly increased, the pressure is greatly increased in the fluid lubricating film, and a larger bearing load can be supported. That is, as the displacement of the rotating shaft 1 in the radial direction proceeds, the fluid lubricating film is also strengthened.
- the protruding portion 40 of the present disclosure includes a top wall portion 40a at an axial position in a range of ⁇ 5% from the axial center position P1 of the insertion hole 12a. Therefore, the bending of the top foil 9 near the axial center of the insertion hole 12a can be effectively suppressed. That is, as shown in FIG. 9, the pressure of the fluid lubricating film reaches a peak near the center in the axial direction and decreases toward both ends in the axial direction. That is, the rate of change in the pressure of the fluid lubricating film increases from the vicinity of the center in the axial direction toward both ends in the axial direction.
- the support by the top wall portion 40a is preferably near the peak of the fluid lubricating film. In the range of ⁇ 5% from the axial center position P1 shown in FIG. 6B, the peak pressure of the fluid lubricating film does not vary greatly, and the support by the top wall portion 40a acts more effectively.
- the protrusion part 40 of this indication is formed in the ring shape along the circumferential direction of the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole 12a, as shown to FIG. 6A, the top foil in the axial center vicinity of the insertion hole 12a is formed. 9 can be suppressed over the entire circumference.

図1中、符号1は回転軸(シャフト)、符号2は回転軸の軸方向の第一の側の先端に設けられたインペラ、符号3は本開示に係るラジアルフォイル軸受である。なお、図1では省略してラジアルフォイル軸受を一つしか記載していないが、通常は回転軸1の軸方向にラジアルフォイル軸受が二つ設けられている。したがって、本開示においてもラジアルフォイル軸受3が二つ設けられている。
図2は、本開示の第1実施形態に係るラジアルフォイル軸受3を示す正面図である。図3は、本開示の第1実施形態に係るラジアルフォイル軸受3に蓋体50を取り付けた状態を示す正面図である。
ラジアルフォイル軸受3は、回転軸1の外側に配置されて、回転軸1を支持する軸受である。ラジアルフォイル軸受3は、トップフォイル9と、中間フォイル10と、バックフォイル11と、軸受ハウジング12と、を備える。軸受ハウジング12は、回転軸1が挿通される挿通孔12aを有する。
トップフォイル9は、図4Aに示すように、周方向を長辺とし、軸方向を短辺とする矩形状の金属箔である。このトップフォイル9は、図2に示すように、円筒状に巻かれて、回転軸1の周面に対向して配置されている。
また、山部11cは、中間フォイル10(中間フォイル片10a)に当接可能である。このように、バックフォイル片11aは、山部11cにより、中間フォイル片10aを介してトップフォイル9を弾性的に支持している。なお、バックフォイル片11aの周方向両端は、いずれも谷部11bとなっている。
バックフォイル片11aは、図5に示すように、軸方向の端縁に切欠26を備える。切欠26は、バックフォイル片11aの谷部11bに形成されている。
回転軸1が停止した状態では、トップフォイル9はバックフォイル11(3つのバックフォイル片11a)によって中間ファイル10(3つの中間フォイル片10a)を介して回転軸1側に付勢されることで回転軸1に密着している。なお、本開示では、トップフォイル9の両端部が薄肉部24となっているので、これら薄肉部24では回転軸1を締め付ける力(局所的なプリロード)が、薄肉部24がない場合と比べ緩和される。
次に、本開示の第2実施形態について説明する。以下の説明において、上述の実施形態と同一又は同等の構成については同一の符号を付し、その説明を簡略若しくは省略する。
第2実施形態では、図10に示すように、突出部40が、挿通孔12aの内周面の周方向に沿って隙間(間隔)をあけて複数形成されている点で、上記第1実施形態と異なる。
すなわち、バックフォイル11(バックフォイル片11a)には、周方向の両端縁の軸方向中央位置において、周方向に延びる凹みが存在する。
図13は、本開示の第2実施形態の一変形例に係る軸受ハウジング12の正面図である。図14は、本開示の第2実施形態の一変形例に係るラジアルフォイル軸受3の要部を平坦化して模式的に示す正面図である。
図13に示すように、挿通孔12aには、突出部40と突出部40の隙間Sに対応する位置に、溝14が形成されている。溝14は、挿通孔12aの内周面よりも径方向外側に凹む窪みであり、例えばキー溝加工により形成することができる。
図15は、本開示の第2実施形態の一変形例に係るラジアルフォイル軸受3の要部を平坦化して模式的に示す正面図である。
図15に示すように、バックフォイル11は、溝14上の周方向中央位置の第2の谷部11b1に山部11cと上下反転した第2の山部11b2を備えている。第2の山部11b2の径方向外側の頂部は、溝14の底面に接する。なお、溝14の底面を、符号15で示すテーパ面(すなわち径方向外側に向けて狭まる楔形状)とすることで、第2の山部11b2の収まりが良くなる。
