TEST BENCH FOR ROTATING ELEMENTS OF MACHINE STRUCTURES Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01M13/00 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: working assembly includes the tested rotary element, possibility of investigating rotary elements of machines at various offsets/deformations of the stator and the rotor relative to each other, which appear at operation of machines, creation of a multipurpose test bench for all types of rotary elements (seals, bearings, friction pairs, etc.) of machine structure. The test bench for rotary elements of the machine structures consists of a drive unit including the drive unit housing, a shaft installed on bearings, the ends of which go beyond the limits of the drive unit housing, the drive connected to one of the shaft ends of the tested unit, which includes the housing of the tested unit, the shaft, the tested element fixed on the shaft and in the housing of the tested unit, which are identical to the housing, the shaft, the rotary element, which are used in actual machine structure. One of the shaft ends goes beyond the limits of the housing; at that, shafts of drive and tested units are connected to each other by means of a detachable connection (for example by means of flanges connected to each other with screws) with formation of a single shaft, housings of the drive and tested units are connected to each other with a detachable connection (for example by means of flanges with screws), with possibility of radial and/or angular and/or axial offset of the housing of the tested unit relative to the drive unit housing.

EFFECT: full simulation on the proposed bench of the working assembly.
