Squeeze film damper bearing device
A squeeze film damper bearing device includes an annular space that is defined between an outer periphery of an outer race, an inner periphery of a bearing retaining member, and a pair of seal rings and forms a squeeze film, and an annular adjustment groove that is formed in the inner periphery of the bearing retaining member that is sandwiched by the pair of seal rings. A depth in a radial direction of the adjustment groove gradually decreases down to zero from a middle side in an axial direction of the adjustment groove in going toward at least one end side in the axial direction.
1. A squeeze film damper bearing device comprising an inner race that is fitted around an outer periphery of a rotating shaft, an outer race that is supported on an inner periphery of a bearing retaining member, a plurality of rolling bodies that are disposed between the inner race and the outer race, a pair of seal rings that are provided on opposite end parts in an axial direction of an outer periphery of the outer race and resiliently abut against the inner periphery of the bearing retaining member, an annular space that is defined between the outer periphery of the outer race, the inner periphery of the bearing retaining member, and the pair of seal rings and forms a squeeze film, and an annular adjustment groove that is formed in the inner periphery of the bearing retaining member that is sandwiched by the pair of seal rings,
wherein a depth in a radial direction of the adjustment groove gradually decreases down to zero from a middle side in the axial direction of the adjustment groove in going toward at least one end side in the axial direction.
