Vacuum pump and adjustment method

1. A vacuum pump comprising:

a rotatable rotor;

a housing configured to house the rotor;

a magnetic bearing having a first magnet arranged at a periphery of a magnet holder fixed to the housing and a second magnet arranged in the rotor to face the first magnet in a radial direction; and

an adjustment member configured to adjust a position of the first magnet relative to the second magnet,

the adjustment member having:

a main body portion having, in an inner peripheral surface thereof, a second thread shape to be fitted in a first thread shape formed at the periphery of the magnet holder and moved in a direction along a rotation axis of the rotor by rotating relative to the magnet holder to adjust the position of the first magnet relative to the second magnet, and

a protrusion protruding from an upper surface of the main body portion, and

the protrusion having, on an outer peripheral side of the main body portion, a contact target surface contactable with a first tool configured to rotate the main body portion from an upper-surface side of the main body portion and contactable with a second tool configured to rotate the main body portion from a side-surface side of the main body portion.

2. The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein

the protrusion has a polygonal shape as viewed from the upper-surface side of the main body portion.

3. The vacuum pump according to claim 2 , wherein

the protrusion includes a plurality of protrusions arranged on the upper surface of the main body portion, and

the plurality of protrusions forms part of the polygonal shape.

4. The vacuum pump according to claim 3 , wherein

each of the plurality of protrusions is arranged at a position of a vertex of the polygonal shape on the upper surface of the main body portion.

5. The vacuum pump according to claim 3 , wherein

the first tool and the second tool contact a contact target surface of any of the plurality of protrusions and a contact target surface of a protrusion adjacent to the any of the plurality of protrusions.

6. The vacuum pump according to claim 4 , wherein

the first tool contacts a portion of a contact target surface of each of the plurality of protrusions corresponding to the vertex of the polygonal shape.

7. The vacuum pump according to claim 3 , wherein

the number of the protrusions arranged on the upper surface of the main body portion is a multiple of six.

8. A method of adjusting the vacuum pump according to claim 1 , comprising:

housing the rotor and the adjustment member in an adjustment housing having an opening in an upper portion and a third magnet;

adjusting a position of the third magnet relative to the second magnet by inserting a first tool into the adjustment housing through the opening, and rotating the adjustment member with the first tool contacting the contact target surface of the adjustment member housed in the adjustment housing;

housing the rotor and the adjustment member in the housing of the vacuum pump formed with a suction port in a side surface; and

adjusting the position of the first magnet relative to the second magnet by inserting a second tool into the housing through the suction port, and rotating the adjustment member with the second tool contacting the contact target surface of the adjustment member housed in the housing.

9. The adjustment method according to claim 8 , further comprising:

adjusting a balance of the rotor after adjusting the position of the third magnet relative to the second magnet.
