Blade fastening mechanism having a securing device for turbine blades
A securing device for a turbine blade wherein the securing device prevents the turbine blade from moving radially and axially and includes a retaining piece that includes a projection which extends into a recess in the root of the turbine blade and which prevents the blade from moving axially.
1. A rotor comprising:
a turbine blade, and
a securing device for axially and radially securing the turbine blade,
wherein the rotor comprises a blade groove,
wherein the turbine blade comprises a turbine blade root adapted to the blade groove,
wherein the securing device comprises a retaining piece which is arranged between the blade groove and the turbine blade root,
wherein the retaining piece comprises a surface facing towards the turbine blade root,
wherein the surface bears against the turbine blade root,
wherein the retaining piece comprises, on the surface, a projection which is arranged into a recess in the turbine blade root, wherein the projection engages into the recess in such a way that displacement of the turbine blade in an axial direction is prevented,
wherein the securing device comprises a force spring which exerts a force acting in a radial direction from the rotor on the turbine blade,
wherein the securing device comprises a securing plate which is disposed in a first groove in the retaining piece and in a rotor recess,
wherein an interaction between the securing plate and the rotor recess prevents displacement of the securing plate upstream and downstream axially, and
wherein an interaction between the securing plate and the first groove prevents displacement of the retaining piece upstream and downstream axially.
2. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the force spring is a separate component from the retaining piece and the securing plate.
3. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the recess is of complementary design with respect to the projection.
4. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the projection is of rectangular cross section.
5. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the force spring is arranged between the blade groove and the retaining piece.
6. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the force spring is arranged next to the retaining piece, between the blade groove and the turbine blade root.
7. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the turbine blade root comprises a front edge, as seen in the axial direction, and a rear edge arranged opposite the front edge, as seen in the axial direction, and
wherein the retaining piece extends from the front edge to the rear edge.
8. The rotor as claimed in claim 7 ,
wherein the securing plate is arranged at the front edge and a second securing plate is arranged at the rear edge.
9. The rotor as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein the second securing plate is disposed in a second groove in the retaining piece and in a second rotor recess,
wherein an interaction between the second securing plate and the second rotor recess prevents displacement of the second securing plate upstream and downstream axially, and
wherein an interaction between the second securing plate and the second groove prevents displacement of the retaining piece upstream and downstream axially.
10. The rotor as claimed in claim 7 ,
wherein the force spring is arranged at the front edge and a second force spring is arranged at the rear edge.
11. The rotor as claimed in claim 7 ,
wherein the retaining piece comprises a second projection arranged at the rear edge and disposed in a second recess in the turbine blade root,
wherein the projection prevents axial displacement in a first axial direction, and
wherein the second projection engages into the second recess in such a way that displacement of the turbine blade in a second axial direction opposite the first axial direction is prevented.
12. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the projection is of elongate design in a circumferential direction which is oriented with respect to an axis of rotation of the rotor.
13. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the projection is formed as a cylinder and engages into the recess formed as a blind bore.
14. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the rotor recess and the first groove are arranged one on top of the other in the radial direction.
15. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the force spring is a disk spring.
16. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the projection engages into the recess in such a way that displacement of the turbine blade upstream and downstream axially is prevented.
