Claims11
A compressor housing, comprising:
- a cylindrical housing basic body having an internal thread at least at one end;
- at least one cover that closes a respective end of the housing basic body;
- and
- a stop for the at least one cover comprising:
- at least one threaded ring with an external thread, the external thread is screwed into the at least one end of the housing basic body via the internal thread.
A method for the assembling or disassembling a threaded ring on a cylindrical housing basic body of a compressor housing having a cylindrical housing basic body having an internal thread at least at one end, at least one cover that closes a respective end of the housing basic body, and a stop for the at least one cover having the threaded ring with an external thread, the external thread is configured to screw into the at least one end of the housing basic body via the internal thread, comprising:
- fastening an assembly ring at the end of the housing basic body, at which the threaded ring is assembled or disassembled, that axially extends the housing basic body at the end and comprises an internal thread extending the internal thread of the housing basic body
- wherein for the assembly of the threaded ring the assembly ring receives the threaded ring and the threaded ring is screwed from the assembly ring into the end of the housing basic body, and
- wherein for the disassembly of the threaded ring the housing basic body receives the threaded ring and the threaded ring is screwed from the housing basic body into the assembly ring.
A method for the assembly or disassembly of a threaded ring on a cylindrical housing basic body of a compressor housing having a cylindrical housing basic body having an internal thread at least at one end, at least one cover that closes a respective end of the housing basic body, and a stop for the at least one cover having the threaded ring with an external thread, the external thread is configured to screw into the at least one end of the housing basic body via the internal thread, comprising:
- assembling roller-like assembly bodies on the cover or a separate support structure;
- wherein for the assembly of the threaded ring:
- positioning the threaded ring on the roller-like assembly bodies;
- and
- subsequently screwing the threaded ring into the end of the housing basic body, and
- wherein for the disassembly of the threaded ring:
- the threaded ring is screwed out of the housing basic body and in the process positioned on the roller-like assembly bodies.
