GAS TURBINE ENGINE SUPPORT POST ASSEMBLY Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F01D25/28 F02C7/20 F16C3/02 F16C11/02 F16C11/06 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a support post assembly for a body support of a functional unit of a gas turbine, to a gas turbine and to a method of supporting the body of a functional unit of a gas turbine. Assembly (100) of the support post includes body (101) of the post for supporting the unit on a base, ball rotary element (102), which is arranged able to turn on body (101) of the post forming a ball hinge, and swinging lever (103) installed on element (102). Lever (103) is intended to be inserted in support hole (121) of support body (120), which is part of the body or the base. Lever (103) is intended to be inserted in hole (121) with movable fit so that turning point (105) is created in the first zone of contact between lever (103) and internal surface (122) of hole (121), so that the possibility of rotation of lever (103) inside hole (121) around point (105) is provided. Elastomer spring and damping element (104) is installed on lever (103) so that the possibility is provided of placing element (104) between lever (103) and body (120) to ensure centering force and damping lever (103) turn relative to body (120) around point (105).

EFFECT: group of inventions is aimed at providing effective maintenance of a gas turbine.
