Fixing structure for fixing rotor to rotor shaft, and turbo molecular pump having the fixing structure
View Patent ↗Provided are a fixing structure for fixing a rotor to a rotor shaft, in which the contact state of the contact surfaces of the rotor shaft and the rotor is stabilized to thereby maintain the rotation balance of the rotor shaft and the rotor, making it possible to prevent oscillation, and a turbo molecular pump having such a fixing structure. On the outer peripheral portion of the upper surface of a fastening portion ( 253 ), there is concentrically formed a rotor shaft ( 213 ) side contact surface ( 257 ) to be brought into contact with a rotor ( 103 ). Further, in the inner periphery of the contact surface ( 257 ), there is formed a spot facing portion ( 259 ) whose upper surface is recessed from the contact surface ( 257 ). Thus, when the rotor shaft ( 213 ) is fastened to the rotor ( 103 ), there is formed, at the portion where the spot facing portion ( 259 ) is formed, a gap ( 265 ) which has a depth corresponding to the depth of the spot facing portion ( 259 ) and which is between the contact surface ( 187 ) of the rotor ( 103 ) and the spot facing portion ( 259 ).
1. A fixing structure for fixing a rotor to a rotor shaft, comprising:
a rotor;
a rotor shaft fixed to the rotor;
a bolt hole for fastening the rotor shaft and the rotor to each other;
fastening means for fastening the rotor shaft and the rotor to each other by using the bolt hole;
a rotor side contact surface formed on a rotor side so that the rotor side contact surface is perpendicular to an axial direction;
a rotor shaft side contact surface formed on a rotor shaft side and held in contact with the rotor side contact surface; and
a spot facing portion recessed from the rotor shaft side contact surface, characterized in that:
a gap is formed between the rotor side contact surface and the spot facing portion as a result of the fastening; and
the bolt hole is open on the gap.
2. A fixing structure for fixing a rotor to a rotor shaft according to claim 1 , characterized in that:
the rotor has a central hole formed at a center of the rotor; and
the rotor shaft has a pass-through shaft portion passed through the central hole and a main shaft portion of a larger diameter than the pass-through shaft portion.
3. A turbo molecular pump having a fixing structure as claimed in claim 1 ; comprising a magnetic bearing magnetically levitating the rotor shaft and performing positional adjustment on the rotor shaft in the radial direction and/or the axial direction, characterized in that:
the rotor has rotary vanes; and
the turbo molecular pump is installed in an associated equipment and sucks a predetermined gas from the associated equipment.
4. A turbo molecular pump comprising:
an electrical section including at least a motor;
a base portion supporting the electrical section;
a rotor shaft rotated by the motor;
a rotor to which the rotor shaft is fixed;
rotary vanes formed on the rotor;
stationary vanes arranged alternately with the rotary vanes;
stationary vane spacers for fixing the stationary vanes in position;
an outer cylinder containing at least the rotor shaft, the rotor, the rotary vanes, the stationary vanes, and the stationary vane spacers,
a female screw formed in the rotor shaft; and
threaded-engagement means threadedly engaged with the female screw,
characterized in that, by pulling the threaded-engagement means, at least the rotor shaft, the rotor, and the rotary vanes can be separated from the electrical section and the base portion.
5. A turbo molecular pump according to claim 4 , characterized in that the threaded-engagement means is an eyebolt.
