Abstract
A structural member is provided for an exhaust-gas connection of a turbomachine, in particular a steam turbine, and a turbomachine bearing disposed in the exhaust-gas connection. The structural member is cast in one piece and has a connection part and/or a bearing part for accommodating the bearing as well as a supporting arm configuration with at least one supporting arm. A pipe conduit which is cast into the structural member leads through a connection part, a supporting arm and a bearing part. A set of at least two such structural members form an exhaust-gas connection and a frame for the bearing of the turbomachine.
Claims15
In an exhaust-gas connection of a turbomachine having a turbomachine bearing disposed in the exhaust-gas connection, a structural member, comprising:
- a one-piece cast member for the exhaust-gas connection and the bearing having:
- at least one of a connection part and a bearing part for accommodating the bearing;
- a supporting-arm configuration having at least one supporting arm supporting said at least one part;
- and
- a pipe conduit surrounded by said supporting-arm configuration and leading through said at least one part and said supporting arm.
In an exhaust-gas connection of a turbomachine having a rotation axis and a turbomachine bearing disposed in the exhaust-gas connection, a structure member, comprising:
- a set of at least two one-piece cast structural members joined to one another for the exhaust-gas connection and the bearing, each structural member of said set of at least two one-piece cast structural members having:
- a connection part;
- a supporting-arm configuration having at least one supporting arm supporting said connection part;
- and
- a pipe conduit surrounded by said supporting-arm configuration and leading through said connection part and said supporting arm;
- said connection parts of said set of at least two one-piece cast structural members forming the exhaust-gas connection closed around the rotation axis.
