Abstract

1360489 Lubricating WEIR PUMPS Ltd 24 May 1972 [3 June 1971] 18804/71 Heading F2A The bearings of a vertical shaft, e.g. of a shaft connecting two rotodynamic machines are lubricated by being enclosed in a vessel 6 having upper and lower compartments 8, 9 which contain bearing there being ducting connecting the compartments, and a lubricant circulator whose inlet communicates with the lower compartment and whose outlets communicate with the bearings, the arrangement being such that lubricant flows from the lower compartment through the bearings into the compartments and overflows from the upper compartment into the lower compartment. Each compartment contains a journal bearing 16A, 23 which is surrounded by a wall 16, 20 in one end of which is provided an aperture 38, 39, to allow lubricant to return to the compartment. Lubricant is circulated by means of a pump comprising a rotor 27 attached to the shaft rotating in the lower compartment. Lubricant passes from the lower compartment through a hole 28 in the wall surrounding the rotor and is pumped via a duct 32 to an oil cooler 30 and thence via ducts 34, 35 to the upper and lower bearings. Lubricant overflowing from the upper bearing passes over a weir 43 which maintains the level of oil in the upper bearing, and flows into the lower compartment so that it may be recirculated by the pump. Some oil may be pumped by the rotor through a filter 50 from which it returns to the lower compartment. A safety valve 51 may be provided in the lubricating system. A non- return valve 52 may be provided in the duct supplying the upper bearing so as to prevent lubricant draining from the upper compartment on cessation of the operation of the pump. An alternative arrangement for preventing loss of lubricant from the upper compartment is described (Fig. 6, not shown), in which lubricant is conveyed via syphon tubes (53) to the upper compartment, the tubes being provided with valves (55) which, on reduction in pressure due to the cessation of the pump, open to break the syphon. The lower compartment may contain a thrust bearing 25 for the shaft which is also supplied with lubricant from the pump, and which is surrounded by a wall having an opening at its upper end to allow lubricant to overflow into the ; lower compartment, while maintaining the bearing in lubricant.
