Abstract

According to an aspect of the present invention, a turbine apparatus includes a shaft; a turbine disk provided on the shaft and having a plurality of protrusions protruding in a direction of the shaft; blades provided on the turbine disk; a support plate provided on the turbine disk and having a plurality of latching portions engaged with the plurality of protrusions; a plurality of first fixing blocks located between the plurality of latching portions; and a second fixing block located between the plurality of protrusions and fixed to the plurality of first fixing blocks, wherein a width of a space where the second fixing block is located, from among spaces between the plurality of protrusions, is less than a width of a space where the plurality of first fixing blocks are located, from among spaces between the plurality of latching portions.

Claims (19)

1. A turbine apparatus comprising:

a shaft;

a turbine disk provided on the shaft and having a plurality of protrusions protruding in an axial direction of the shaft;

blades provided on the turbine disk;

a support plate provided on the turbine disk and having a plurality of latching portions engaged with the plurality of protrusions, two adjacent latching portions of the plurality of latching portions forming a space;

a plurality of first fixing blocks located and aligned in a line in each space of the plurality of latching portions; and

a second fixing block located between the plurality of protrusions and fixed to the plurality of first fixing blocks, the plurality of first fixing blocks being axially spaced with respect to the second fixing block,

wherein a width of a space where the second fixing block is located, from among spaces between the plurality of protrusions, is less than a width of a space where the plurality of first fixing blocks are located, from among spaces between the plurality of latching portions, and

wherein:

each of the plurality of first fixing blocks comprises a first mounting hole,

the second fixing block comprises at least one second mounting hole provided at a position corresponding to the first mounting hole, and

a fixing bolt is installed at the first mounting hole and the at least one second mounting hole.

2. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein blade mounting portions are formed on ends of the blades,

wherein blade insertion grooves into which the blade mounting portions are inserted in the axial direction of the shaft to prevent the blades from moving in a radial direction of the shaft are formed in the turbine disk.

3. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein receiving grooves in which the plurality of latching portions are received are formed in the turbine disk.

4. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a bolt head receiving groove in which a head of the fixing bolt is received is further formed in the second mounting hole.

5. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the support plate is provided on at least one of a front part and a rear part of the turbine disk in the axial direction of the shaft.

6. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first fixing blocks in each space are aligned in a circumferential direction of the turbine disk.

7. The turbine apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a number of the at least one second mounting hole corresponds to a number of the plurality of first fixing blocks.
