BOOSTER TURBO-PUMP AGGREGATE WITH THE AXIAL PUMP Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC F02K9/48 

FIELD: rocket engineering; production of the booster turbo-pump aggregates with an axial pumps used in them.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of rocket engineering, in particular, to production of the booster turbo-pump aggregates with the axial pumps used in the liquid rocket engines (LRE). The booster turbo-pump aggregate consists of the body (1), in which there is the pump (3) axial wheel fixed on the shaft (2) and the wheel of the hydraulic turbine (4). The wheel of the hydraulic turbine (4) is connected to the axial wheel of the pump (3) by soldering along its outer diameter. The shaft (2) rests on the fixed bearing (5) and on the movable bearing (6). The axial stops (7) and (8) of the body (1) eliminate the possibility of the axial motion of the fixed bearing (5) with respect to the body (1), and consequently, the motion of the shaft (2). The movable bearing (6) may have the shift in the axial direction concerning the body (1) because of the difference of the axial power and thermal deformations of the body (1) and the shaft (2). From the side of the axial intake in the body there is the axial stop (9). Between the axial stop of the body (1) and the movable bearing (6) the axial spring (10) is installed. The support ring (11) is mounted between the axial spring (10) and the movable bearing (6). The axial spring (10) is made in the form of the resilient conical ring. The invention ensures the increased service life of the fixed bearing (5) and the service life of the whole aggregate.

EFFECT: the invention ensures the increased service life of the fixed bearing (5) and the service life of the whole aggregate.
