Abstract

A vacuum pump has an exhaust portion in which rotating blade portions and stationary blade portions are laminated in multiple stages. Each of the plurality of stator blades in one stage of the stationary blade portion is three-dimensionally connected to the stationary blade portion main body by an inner circumferential side support portion on the inner circumferential end side, and three-dimensionally connected to the stationary blade portion main body by an outer circumferential side support portion on the outer circumferential end side, and a cutout is provided in ag circumferential front end of the outer circumferential side support portion.

Claims (21)

1. A vacuum pump having an exhaust portion in which rotating blade portions and stationary blade portions are laminated in multiple stages, wherein

in at least one stage of the stationary blade portion among the plurality of stationary blade portions laminated in the multiple stages,

a plurality of stator blades extended in a radial manner with a predetermined width in the circumferential direction and inclined by a predetermined blade angle with respect to a stationary blade portion main body, and

a plurality of exhaust openings through which a gas current is guided from upstream to downstream by the plurality of stator blades are provided,

each of the plurality of stator blades in one stage of the stationary blade portion is three-dimensionally connected to the stationary blade portion main body by an inner circumferential side support portion on the inner circumferential end side, and three-dimensionally connected to the stationary blade portion main body by an outer circumferential side support portion on the outer circumferential end side, and

a cutout is provided in a circumferential front end of the outer circumferential side support portion, the cutout preventing the cracking in the outer circumferential side support portion from generating at the time of drawing to form the stator blade, each of the plurality of stator blades includes;

an inner circumferential end extended in the circumferential direction on the inner circumferential end side of the stator blade,

an outer circumferential end extended in the circumferential direction on the outer circumferential end side of the stator blade,

a base end extended in the radial direction for connecting a base part of the inner circumferential end and a base part of the outer circumferential end, and

a side end facing the base end in the circumferential direction and being extended in the radial direction,

the inner circumferential end, the outer circumferential end, and the base end are connected to the stationary blade portion main body, and the side end is separated from the stationary blade portion main body so as to define the exhaust opening,

the cutout is provided in a front end of the outer circumferential end crossing the side end,

the outer circumferential side support portion and the inner circumferential side support portion are connected to the base end, and the inner circumferential side support portion is provided over the entire length of the inner circumferential end.

2. The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein

the cutout is formed into a quadrangle in a plan view, and is long in the circumferential direction and short in the radial direction.

3. The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein

the outer circumferential side support portion is provided in a region of a part of the entire length from the base part of the outer circumferential end to the side end.

4. The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein

a length of the cutout is less than a half of a length of the outer circumferential end.

5. The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein

the cutout is formed three-dimensionally in the blade height direction.
