Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to rotatable turbine blades and more particularly to a group of blades held on the rotor with pins. Rotatable blades with pin roots have been utilized in turbines for many years. The original pinned root blade groups were welded together. Later, when materials changed so that welding could no longer be utilized, electric discharge machining was utilized to manufacture the blade groups from a block of metal. The blade groups described hereinafter have improved vibratory and steady-state stress characteristics.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In general, a blade group which attaches to a disc disposed on the shaft of an axial flow turbine, when made in accordance with this invention, comprises a platform portion, multiple blade portions extending radially outwardly from the platform portion, and multiple root portions extending radially inwardly from the platform portion. The root portion comprises generally flat spaced-apart arcuate segments disposed normal to the axis of the shaft and the turbine rotor or disc has circumferential grooves which receive the root portion. Multiple pins extend axially through the root portions and the disc and the platform has a protrusion on one corner and a notch on the opposite corner so that the protrusion in one blade group fits the notch in adjacent blade group when a plurality of blade groups are disposed in a circular array on the rotor.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The objects and advantages of this invention will become more apparent from reading the following detailed description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a partial sectional view of a rotatable blade group disposed on a rotor disc mounted on a turbine shaft;
FIG. 2 is an elevational view of a rotor blade group with pinned roots; and
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the blade group.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Referring now to the drawings in detail and in particular to FIG. 1 there is shown a group of multiple rotatable blades 1 pinned to a disc 3 disposed on the shaft 5 of an axial flow turbine.
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 the blade group comprises a platform portion 9 multiple blade portions 11 which extend radially outwardly from the platform portion 9 and multiple root portions 13 which extend radially inwardly from the platform portion 9. Disposed radially outwardly of the blade portion 11 and made integral therewith is a shroud portion 15. The shroud portion 15 is stepped upwardly in the axial direction and is relatively thin in the radial direction.
The disc 3 has a plurality of circumferential grooves 17 adapted to receive the root portions 13 which comprise a plurality of generally flat platelike spaced-apart arcuate segments disposed normal to the axis of the shaft 5. The arcuate root portions 13 and platform 9 are generally the same thickness. The platform portion 9 between the root portions 13 has a central portion with a radius R1 slightly smaller than the radius R2 of the abutting surface of the disc 3 so that the disc 3 only contacts the outer arcuate ends of the platform 9.
The platform and shroud portions 9 and 15 have a protrusion 19 and 21, respectively, disposed on one corner thereof and a notch 23 and 25, respectively, disposed on a corner on the other side of the blade group 1. The protrusions 19 and 21 and notches 23 and 25 register when one blade group is disposed adjacent another blade group on the disc 3 in a circular array. The trailing end of one of the blade portions 11 extends between the protrusions 19 and 21 and the protrusion 19 is chamfered or angled upwardly and outwardly from the bottom to the top of the platform portion 9. Both protrusion 19 and notch 25 have the inner side thereof chamfered or angled inwardly and protrusions 19 and 21 and notches 23 and 25 are angled at their ends from the axial direction.
Three holes 27, 28 and 29 extend axially through the root portion and through the disc 3 and cooperate with pins 31 to fasten each blade group 1 to the disc 3. The outboard holes 27 and 29 are disposed an equal distance from the side margins of the root portions 13 and the hole 28 is disposed radially inwardly from the holes 27 and 29. The hole 28 is also disposed radially inwardly from the center of mass of the shroud portion 15, the blade portion 11, the platform portion 9, and the root portion 13.
The blade groups hereinbefore described have high rigidity and coupled with the high dampening provided by the pin joint, the thin platform and thin shroud provide a minimum vibratory response for a maximum number of vibration frequencies and allow the blade group to withstand high vibratory excitation.
