Deutsche Babcock-borsig Aktiengesellschaft

Heinrich Prumper

A transmission-driven compressor for compressing oxygen. It has one or more stages (1-4) mounted on a rotor shaft (8) and accommodated in a housing (15). The shafts are driven by an integrated oil-lubricated transmission and rest in bearings (10) in another housing (5) that accommodates the transmission. The shafts also rest in additional bearings (18) in a stabilizing plate that the compressor housing is secured to and that is separated from the transmission housing (5) by atmosphere.

Transmission-driven compressor

A multistage turbocompressor with a two-stage transmission with a double intermediate cogwheel (5) consisting of two cogwheels (51 and 52). The first cogwheel has a larger module than the second cogwheel and engages only a central cogwheel (2) that drives the pinion shafts (3 & 4) in the first stage. The second cogwheel engages only the pinion shafts (6, 7, & 8) in the second stage.
