Vacuum pump
Provided is a vacuum pump in which deformation of a peripheral part fastened to an outer cylinder can be prevented even when a count of bolts increases. A vacuum pump according to the present disclosure includes a rotating body, an outer cylinder that accommodates the rotating body, a peripheral part that is disposed on an outer perimeter side of the rotating body and concentrically with the outer cylinder, a plurality of bolts that fasten the outer cylinder and the peripheral part, and an axial force reducing means for reducing bolt axial force acting on the outer cylinder. The axial force reducing means is provided to at least one of the plurality of bolts.
1 . A vacuum pump, comprising:
a rotating body;
an outer cylinder that accommodates the rotating body;
a first peripheral part that is disposed on an outer perimeter side of the rotating body and concentrically with the outer cylinder;
a second peripheral part that is disposed between the outer cylinder and the first peripheral part in an axial direction;
a plurality of bolts that fasten the outer cylinder, the first peripheral part and the second peripheral part; and
an axial force reducing means for reducing bolt axial force acting on the outer cylinder, wherein:
the axial force reducing means is provided to a bolt of the plurality of bolts,
the axial force reducing means has a structure that forms a gap between a head portion of the bolt and a bolt fastening face that is an outer face of the outer cylinder and that faces the head portion of the bolt, and
the gap is provided so that the axial force of the bolt does not act on the outer cylinder and the second peripheral part.
2 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a plurality of through holes, through which the plurality of bolts are passed, are provided in the outer cylinder,
a plurality of screw holes into which the plurality of bolts are screwed are provided in the first peripheral part,
a spacer serving as the axial force reducing means is inserted into at least one of the plurality of through holes, and
the gap is formed between the head portion of the bolt and the bolt fastening face across the spacer.
3 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a plurality of through holes, through which the plurality of bolts are passed, are provided in the outer cylinder,
a plurality of through holes, through which the plurality of bolts are passed, are provided in the second peripheral part,
a plurality of screw holes, into which the plurality of bolts are screwed, are provided in the first peripheral part, and
the gap is formed between the head portion of the bolt and the bolt fastening face by at least one of the plurality of bolts functioning as the axial force reducing means by being formed to have a nominal length that is greater than a total value of a length of the through hole and a screwing depth of the screw hole.
4 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a plurality of through holes, through which the plurality of bolts are passed, are provided in the outer cylinder,
a plurality of screw holes, into which the plurality of bolts are screwed, are provided in the first peripheral part,
a stopper serving as the axial force reducing means is disposed at a bottom portion of at least one of the plurality of screw holes, and
the gap is formed between the head portion of the bolt and the bolt fastening face by a tip end portion of the bolt coming into contact with the stopper.
5 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
the axial force reducing means further includes an elastic member disposed in the gap.
6 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a count of the at least one of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is provided is less than a count of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is not provided.
7 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a count of the at least one of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is provided is greater than a count of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is not provided.
8 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein:
a count of the at least on of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is provided is equal to a count of the plurality of bolts to which the axial force reducing means is not provided.
9 . A vacuum pump comprising:
a rotating body;
an outer cylinder that accommodates the rotating body;
a first peripheral part that is disposed on an outer perimeter side of the rotating body and concentrically with the outer cylinder;
a second peripheral part that is disposed between the outer cylinder and the first peripheral part in an axial direction; and
a bolt that fastens the outer cylinder, the first peripheral part and the second peripheral part,
wherein a gap is formed between a head portion of the bolt and a bolt fastening face that is an outer face of the outer cylinder and that faces the head portion of the bolt, so that the axial force of the bolt does not act on the outer cylinder and the second peripheral part.
