Device for centring and rotationally guiding a turbomachine shaft comprising means for an axial retention of outer ring of a bearing
A device for centring and rotationally guiding a turbomachine shaft, including a rolling bearing including an outer ring, a bearing mount, a band interposed between the outer ring and the bearing mount and a device for connecting the outer ring to the bearing mount, including a device for the axial retention of the outer ring including an axial thrust flange downstream of and in contact with the fixing flange of the connecting device, and including a fixing hole for fixing together the fixing flange, the bearing mount and the axial thrust flange, which latter further includes a lug extending between two successive tabs of the elastically deformable device.
1. A device for centring and rotatably guiding a shaft of a turbomachine, comprising:
a rolling bearing comprising an outer ring,
a bearing support surrounding the outer ring,
a shrink ring interposed between the outer ring and the bearing support,
connection means for connecting the outer ring to the bearing support, the connection means comprising
an annular fastening clamp mounted to the bearing support, and
elastically deformable means linking the outer ring to the fastening clamp and comprising at least one annular row of upstream opened U-shaped tabs, and
retaining means for axially retaining the outer ring in case of a rupture of said elastically deformable means, wherein
the retaining means includes at least one axial stop clamp extending on an angular sector about an axis of revolution of the rolling bearing, positioned downstream of and in contact with the fastening clamp, and
said at least one axial stop clamp includes
at least one fastening hole cooperating with a port of the fastening clamp for fastening together the fastening clamp, the bearing support, and said at least one axial stop clamp with at least one fastening member, and
at least one axial holding stud radially extending toward the axis of revolution of the rolling bearing between two successive tabs of the elastically deformable means.
2. The device according to claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of axial stop clamps distributed on the fastening clamp about the axis of revolution of the rolling bearing.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one axial stop clamp includes at least two axial holding studs circumferentially spaced apart and extending toward the axis of revolution of the rolling bearing.
4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one axial stop clamp includes at least two fastening holes circumferentially spaced apart and each located at a circumferential end of said at least one axial stop clamp.
5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one axial stop clamp includes a central portion recessed so as to decrease a mass of said at least one axial stop clamp.
6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein said at least one axial stop clamp includes, at the recessed central portion, at least one ventilation hole.
7. The device according to claim 1 , wherein a radial end of said at least one stud, located between two successive tabs, has one or more relief ground parts to avoid any collision risk.
8. The device according to claim 1 , wherein a play available between a stud and a tab adjacent to the stud is higher than a radial displacement of the outer ring.
9. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the elastically deformable means includes two annular rows of tabs.
10. A turbomachine, comprising at least one device according to claim 1 .
