Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Provided is a compressor that is capable of, with a simple configuration, facilitating the insertion operation of a compressor bundle by reliably preventing tilting thereof during insertion into a chamber; and that also makes it possible to reduce a roller size without increasing the contact pressure of rollers for sliding the compressor bundle. A small tilt sensor that detects a relative angle difference θ of the compressor bundle with respect to the bundle casing is provided at at least one location in the compressor bundle to be inserted into the chamber inside the bundle casing. In addition, the weight of the compressor bundle during the insertion into the chamber is supported by rollers provided at a bottom portion near the front end of the compressor bundle by making the rollers come in contact with an inner circumferential wall surface of the chamber.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A compressor configured such that a compressor bundle, in which a rotor, rotor blades, and stator blades are included inside a substantially cylindrical bundle housing, is inserted, from the rear to front in an axial direction, into a horizontally extending, substantially cylindrical chamber formed inside the bundle casing, and outer diameter fitting portions provided at the front end and rear end of the compressor bundle tightly fit with inner diameter…
